About this recipe
When to use it
Competitive intel usually means someone remembering to check five different sources on a Friday. This runs it as a scheduled agent and delivers a structured briefing to Slack instead.
What it delivers
A weekly scheduled AI agent monitors competitor websites, review sites, social, and news for material moves - pricing changes, feature launches, big customer wins, leadership changes - and summarizes them into a structured briefing posted to Slack.
How you prompt this

Outputs
How the recipe runs
Blu follows the steps in order and shows you each one before anything goes live.
- 01Replace the Monday checkCreate a workflow 'Weekly competitive intel' scheduled to run every Monday morning. Goal: replace the manual 'check what competitors did this week' task with a structured AI-generated briefing the product and sales teams can consume in 3 minutes.
- 02Run it Monday at 7amThis step builds a workflow. Configure scheduled trigger: Every Monday at 7am local time. Skip if workspace is paused or no competitors are configured. Track last-run timestamp so weekly scrapes only fetch new content since prior run. Use the result of "Replace the Monday check".
- 03Go through each competitorThis step builds a workflow. Configure loop step that iterates over a configured list of competitor domains (configurable per workspace, typically 3-7 named competitors). For each competitor, run the subsequent scrape + analyze steps. Rate-limit between iterations to be polite to sources. Use the result of "Replace the Monday check", "Run it Monday at 7am".
- 04Read their public pagesThis step builds a workflow. Configure web scrape step for each competitor: pricing page, product/features pages, blog (last 7 days), changelog/release-notes page, careers page (hiring signals), G2/Capterra review summary, recent press releases. Respect robots.txt; cache to avoid re-fetching unchanged content. Use the result of "Replace the Monday check", "Go through each competitor".
- 05Compare against last weekThis step builds a workflow. Configure AI research step that compares this week's scraped content to last week's snapshot and flags material changes. Material = pricing changes, new features announced, leadership changes from careers/about pages, big customer wins from press releases, sentiment shifts on review sites, hiring trends suggesting product-area expansion. Outputs structured per-competitor briefing: what changed, what didn't, what to watch. Use the result of "Replace the Monday check", "Read their public pages".
- 06Write the briefingThis step builds a workflow. Configure AI write step that consolidates per-competitor findings into a single weekly briefing. Structure: (a) Top 3 most material competitive moves this week, (b) Per-competitor highlights, (c) Watch-list for next week (developing stories), (d) Recommended responses (e.g. 'Competitor X just launched [feature]: our differentiator is still Y; product marketing may want to update positioning'). Tone: factual, concise, scannable. Use the result of "Replace the Monday check", "Compare against last week".
- 07Post it to the channelThis step builds a workflow. Configure Slack step that posts the briefing to the configured competitive-intel channel (e.g. #competitive-intel). Format: rich block layout with sections, links to source pages, and a thread for team discussion. Tag product + marketing leads for major moves. Use the result of "Replace the Monday check", "Write the briefing".
- 08Publish and spot check itThis step builds a workflow. Validate and publish. Monitor: weekly briefing delivery (must not fail silently), team engagement (reactions, threads), and accuracy (occasional human spot-check that AI correctly identified material changes). Use the result of "Replace the Monday check", "Post it to the channel".
