Their unhappy customers are your warmest pipeline.
Competitor intelligence usually means a Slack channel of screenshots someone remembered to paste. Eko makes it systematic: she follows your competitors' public conversations, spots pricing backlash and churn signals, and separates 'good to know' from 'act this week'.
Competitor monitoring is the practice of systematically tracking what customers say about your competitors in public (complaints, pricing changes, outages, switching intent) to sharpen your positioning and catch warm pipeline the moment it appears.
01
Complaints, categorized
Pricing anger, support failures, missing features: each competitor complaint is classified and trended, so you know which weakness is structural and which was one bad week.
02
The weekly memo your exec team reads
Every Friday: what each competitor shipped, what their customers said, and where the narrative is moving. Built from over a thousand conversations, readable in three minutes.
03
Switch-intent goes to Buska
When someone posts 'our bill tripled, looking at alternatives', that's not intelligence, that's pipeline. One button hands it to Buska, scored and enriched, while Eko keeps tracking the thread.
Eko never trash-talks competitors and never DMs their users. Commercial follow-up is Buska's job, done from your account, by your team, with full context attached.

“Onbordly just moved checklists and progress emails to their 'Scale' plan. Our bill went from $89 to $340 overnight. Looking at alternatives. What are people using for customer onboarding?”
Why it matters: Churned competitor users with an active thread are the cheapest pipeline you'll get this quarter. Two commenters already fit your ICP.
Recommended: This is commercial: send it to Buska for scoring and outreach. If you also want to join the thread, I've drafted a helpful, non-salesy reply.
Rule applied · Commercial intent goes to Buska: If a signal looks like a buying opportunity, Eko surfaces a 'Send to Buska' action instead of engaging. Lead gen is Buska's job.
