The competitor tracker your CMO already wishes you had.

Your firm against your nine closest peers across a 47-sub-practice taxonomy and every market that matters. Daily posting flow, partner-class headcount, lateral signals, and named-client overlap pushed straight into Slack, Salesforce, InterAction, DealCloud, or HighQ.

The problem · The signal

Twice-weekly cadence on competitive-intelligence data costs you four days of peer movement per cycle.

01 What's broken today

"My BD analyst spends Monday morning rebuilding a deck because the Friday data doesn't reflect what happened over the weekend. We pitch on stale numbers half the time."

  • P/01

    Twice-weekly incumbent cadence misses four days

    Peer firms are moving every business day. A Tuesday/Friday refresh cycle leaves you blind on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday — the days analysts are building the pitch.

  • P/02

    Sub-practice granularity in incumbents is wrong

    "Private Equity" and "PE secondaries" route to the same bucket. Our 47-sub-practice taxonomy splits them, and splits 45 others incumbents collapse.

  • P/03

    Pitch-prep eats analyst hours that should be on win themes

    Three to five hours per pitch pack on data assembly is the unit cost we replace with a single competitor-snapshot endpoint.

02 What we ship

Daily refresh, push connectors, and a one-call competitor-snapshot endpoint that lands in your CRM in the format the partner already reads.

  • V/01

    Daily refresh + push connectors

    Slack, Salesforce, InterAction, DealCloud, HighQ. Webhook payloads pre-formatted for each. The connector is the integration; we ship them.

  • V/02

    Proprietary 47-sub-practice taxonomy

    Finer than Compass. Finer than Leopard. Published in full on the methodology page. You can dispute a categorization and see how we score it.

  • V/03

    Competitor-snapshot in one call

    GET /v1/firms/{id}/competitor-snapshot returns peer headcount, posting velocity, sub-practice mix, market footprint, and 12-month delta — formatted for slide insertion.

Edge use cases · For BD and CI

Three queries you can run on day one.

Every record is normalized into the same taxonomy. Cross-cut however your model needs.
USE CASE 01

Pre-pitch peer benchmarking

You're pitching $40M of regulatory work to a F100 GC. One API call returns your firm vs. their three top competitors on practice depth, market presence, and lateral momentum — straight into the deck template.

GET /v1/firms/compare?ids=...&format=ppt
USE CASE 02

Sub-practice expansion tracking

A peer firm posts five new openings in a sub-practice they didn't have last quarter. That's a strategic move. The Index flags it the morning posting #5 lands.

GET /v1/firms/{id}/practices/new?since=90d
USE CASE 03

Geographic intent

Posting density in a market is a 6-month leading indicator of office expansion. Surface every peer building toward a new market footprint before they announce.
