For about a year I was manually checking competitor pricing pages, reading their blog updates, tracking positioning changes. every week. Like a person with no options. The thing that finally broke me was realizing I was doing the same 12 browser tabs in the same order every Monday like some kind of ritual for information I kept forgetting by Thursday. So I automated it. And the setup is so simple it’s actually embarrassing that i waited this long. Web data API pulls clean markdown from a list of competitor URLs on a schedule. That goes into an LLM with a prompt that only surfaces what actually changed. Summary hits my inbox monday morning before I open slack. No headless browsers. No scrapers. No maintenance. No broken pipelines at 1am. The whole thing took one afternoon. I genuinely don’t understand why this isn’t the default for anyone running a product. you are making decisions about positioning, pricing, and roadmap based on competitor intel you’re collecting manually and that is insane when this exists. If you’re still doing it by hand or fighting with brittle scrapers, just try this. It’s not a big project anymore. The tools caught up. submitted by /u/Ill-Refrigerator9653
