Social media competitor analysis, every Monday

Name the accounts and shops you compete with. Every Monday you get one page on what they posted, what broke out and what they launched, and your AI can tell you why.

TikTok, Instagram, YouTubeShopify storesA link you can share

That's an example. Create a free account and read yours for real; it works on anything public.

Short answer

How do I track what my competitors post on social media?

Pick the five to ten accounts that matter, check their TikTok, Instagram and shop every week, and note what does better than their usual. Puley does that check for you and sends a one-page report every Monday; ask ChatGPT or Claude why a post broke out and what to try.

How to

Two ways to track competitors

The free way works. The Puley way is one message, on any device, and you can ask about the result.

By hand

Free, about an hour a week

  1. List your competitors and their accounts.
  2. Each week, scroll their recent posts and note views and likes against their usual.
  3. Check their site for new products and price changes. Repeat every week.

With Puley

Five minutes, once

  1. Tell your AI: “Track Gymshark, Alphalete and Youngla on TikTok, Instagram and their shops.”
  2. Every Monday at 08:00, the report arrives by email and in your AI.
  3. Ask: “Why did the winter arc video work?”, “What did they launch?”

Questions

Competitor reports: questions

Which platforms does it cover?

TikTok, Instagram and YouTube accounts, and Shopify stores for products and prices.

How many competitors can I track?

One account on the free plan, five on Plus and twenty-five on Pro.

What counts as a breakout?

A post that gets at least three times the account's typical views or likes, measured against its recent posts.

Can I share the report?

Yes. Every report has a link you can forward to a co-founder, a client or your team.

Does it replace Sprout Social?

Not if you need scheduling and a shared inbox. If you mainly want to know what competitors are doing and why it works, it's the same answer for a fraction of the price.
