Head-to-head, query by query
For every keyword you track, RankMesh checks who actually shows up: your Google position next to theirs, and whether ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Gemini mention you, them, or both.

Competitor Intelligence
Know exactly where
they're winning, and you're not.
A competitor showing up more than you isn't a feeling, it's a specific list of queries. RankMesh checks Google and every major AI platform, query by query, and turns each gap into a brief you can act on.

The gap list
Every query where a competitor shows up and you don't.
Ranked by how winnable it looks, not just how often it's searched.

Three of these four are queries you could win with content you don't have yet. Each one becomes a one-click content brief.
Watching them is the easy part. Acting on it is the point.
Six things this runs continuously, so a competitor's move shows up as a trend, not a surprise.
The exact gaps, ranked by opportunity
A list of every query where a competitor appears and you don't, sorted by how winnable it looks: search volume, current difficulty, and whether AI platforms are already citing someone for it.
Trajectory, not just a snapshot
A one-time competitor audit tells you where things stand today. RankMesh tracks the same competitor set weekly, so a rival pulling ahead on a topic cluster shows up as a trend, not a surprise three months later.
Alerted the week it changes
When a competitor starts showing up for a query they never used to, or a new competitor enters your space entirely, that's a flagged event, not something you'd have to notice yourself.
One click from gap to content brief
Finding the gap and doing something about it used to be two separate tools. Here, a query in the gap list opens directly into a content brief the writing agents can pick up.
Defend the ground you already hold
The same view also shows queries where you're ahead, so a slipping position gets caught and defended before a competitor quietly takes it.
Part of the same picture, not a separate tool
Competitor intelligence runs inside the same platform as your keyword tracking, technical fixes, and content pipeline, on the Keyword Command Center. A gap you find here and a keyword you're already tracking are the same data, not two dashboards you have to reconcile by hand.
Competitor intelligence FAQ
Competitor intelligence, explained.
Yes, that's exactly what it is, applied to two surfaces most competitor analysis tools only cover one of. It checks Google positions the way a standard SEO competitor analysis tool does, plus whether ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini mention a competitor instead of you for the same query.
It's a head-to-head comparison, query by query, of where you and a chosen set of competitors show up: on Google, and inside ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini answers. Instead of a general sense that a competitor is 'doing well,' you get the specific queries where that's true.
Checking manually only shows you Google, only shows you today, and doesn't scale past a handful of queries. RankMesh checks your full tracked keyword set against your competitor set on a schedule, across both Google and AI platforms, and keeps the history.
Each gap in the list can open directly into a content brief for that query, which the content agents can turn into a draft. Finding the gap and acting on it don't require switching tools.
Your competitor set is configurable per project, so you're not paying for or wading through data on every player in your category, just the ones you actually compete with for a customer's attention.
Both, which is the point. A competitor can be losing ground to you on Google while quietly winning every AI Overview and ChatGPT answer in your category, or the reverse. Tracking only one side misses half the picture.
Yes. A new domain starting to appear for queries in your tracked set is flagged as an event, the same way a rank change or a citation gain is, rather than something you'd have to notice on your own.
