Nice, good luck! Gosh I hate to dissuade you because the energy is great but a bit of competitive intel on competitive intel, these are some bloody waters. Startups and solo devs won't pay for CI and big companies need to be sold on CI (by the below players).

CI/MI players: Bertin IT, Cipher, Comintelli, Crayon, Digimind, Klue, Kompyte, Market Logic, M-Brain, Northern Light, Sharpr, and Wide Narrow

This obviously doesn't include the media monitoring tools like Brandwatch, Meltwater, or the page trackers, or the SEM tools that also do social tracking (SEMRush, Ahrefs, etc)...

Edit: if i were to bet on CI, i'd try to go after content analytics in a heavy way, and compete with BuzzSumo

Thanks for your feedback, really appreciate it! We´re still new and directions can always be changed, but I´d say our target is SMB. The ones who can´t afford the big players. Great suggestion with the content analytics, this is something we´ll look into!
