ContextBolt Radar features

Here is everything ContextBolt Radar does, from what it watches to the counter-move it hands your agent.

What it watches

For each competitor you name, Radar watches five public surfaces. Together they cover what a rival is doing and what they are about to do.

• Pricing page. The highest-value signal. New tiers, killed free plans, price moves, with the old and new numbers kept.
• Homepage. Headline and positioning shifts, so a new audience or category claim never slips past.
• Changelog. Shipping velocity and direction, straight from their own release notes.
• Sitemap. An early warning. New pages often exist before they are announced, so a new /enterprise page shows up here first.
• Search footprint. Traffic estimates and ranked keywords, so you see gains worth studying and slides worth pressing.

Pages are checked every night. Search data folds in weekly. It only ever looks at public marketing pages, never anything behind a login.

Judged, not noisy

Alert fatigue kills every monitoring tool. Radar is built to avoid it. Every change is read and judged for significance before you ever see it.

• Cosmetic changes die quietly. Copyright years, cookie banners and testimonial swaps get detected, judged insignificant, and never shown.
• Every change carries receipts. The link to the page and the exact before-and-after text are kept, so “what exactly changed?” always has a real answer.
• Sometimes the call is hold. A real change that deserves no response is flagged as exactly that, with the reason. A tool that always cries “act now” is one you stop reading.

The Monday briefing

Every Monday, when something moved, you get a short analyst briefing by email. Each meaningful change, judged for you, with its evidence and its counter-move. You can also pull the same briefing any time by asking your agent for it, without waiting for Monday.

Counter-moves

This is the part a dashboard cannot do. Radar doesn’t stop at telling you what changed. On a meaningful move, it calls the counter-move and hands it to your agent to run.

Depending on what happened, that might be pressing a price gap when a rival raises prices, answering a feature launch with a comparison, or getting your story out first when their sitemap hints at an unannounced page. Your agent drafts the response in your voice, using your real files, and shows it to you. Nothing goes public until you approve it. If you also have ContextBolt SEO connected, your agent can size the opportunity first with real keyword and backlink data.

Memory and trajectories

Every judged change is stored forever with its date and evidence. That history is what lets Radar say “second price rise since January” instead of just “they raised prices.” Your radar is also mirrored to a local ./radar/ folder, one markdown file per competitor plus an index, so you can grep it, keep it in your repo, or open it in your notes app.

Works with ContextBolt SEO

Radar and ContextBolt SEO are built to work together, and there is a bundle if you want both. When both are connected, a competitor’s move can flow straight into sizing the opportunity, so you go from “they did X” to “here’s what it’s worth and here’s the response” in one conversation.
