I'm imagining that the platform is looking for open source or publicly available announcements, posts, etc. from designated rivals, and collating that for me.

Does tracking public announcements of new features and changes help me stay ahead of my rivals? Is the platform understanding my rivals' products, analyzing their products directly, or something deeper than providing an open source intelligence dashboard?

Do I identify my rivals or does the platform do that for me? How do I know when a new one comes on the scene? If the platform is focused on founders, we're talking about maybe quite a few other startups showing up and disappearing from the scene. Helping me know who matters or when someone new shows up could be useful.

Great questions!

For the first version, we are tracking very much the details of the site itself. Tracking new postings, changes in features and even some of the topic changes in content marketing gives a very good indication of the directions companies are moving.

While it relies on you to enter your competitors, for now, that is something that can change as we can cross-reference language and new startup listings on different directories.
