RivalBeam
What it is
RivalBeam is an AI competitive-intelligence platform for B2B software companies, startups, and growth-stage teams. It monitors public competitor activity across 15+ channels, including review sites, job boards, news, social media, pricing pages, patents, SEC filings, and other listed sources. The service produces cited weekly intelligence briefs and on-demand Deep Research reports with cited analysis. It also uses hiring, content, and product patterns to predict competitor moves, while battlecards update as new intelligence arrives. Listed integrations include Slack, Microsoft Teams, Salesforce, HubSpot, and Zapier, with access varying by plan. The Free plan tracks one competitor, covers five monitoring channels, sends a weekly digest, and includes one Deep Research report monthly. Paid plans start at $99/mo, and a 14-day trial is listed. RivalBeam runs on the web and through an API. The company says it monitors public information, respects robots.txt, avoids authenticated content and bypassing controls, and does not use customer data for model training.
