Competitor Tracker Agent

A PR professional tracking competitors manually spends 10 hours every month. That is 120 hours a year doing work an AI agent can do in seconds.

At an average agency rate of £80/hour, that is £10k per year tied up in a task your team hates doing.

This system monitors competitor websites, LinkedIn profiles, and news automatically and delivers a clean weekly digest to your inbox. No manual work. No missed updates.

Already running for a London PR agency, where it frees 10 hours every month. Their PR professionals now focus on higher-value work with no manual tracking. Setup takes 2 weeks. Fixed price. You own it after.

What your team gets back: 120 hours per year to spend on clients, strategy, and work that actually moves the needle.

Send me your top 3 competitors. I'll run the tracker for one week and send you the digest for free.
