What we track on Facebook and Instagram
Social is where competitors show their hand: the offers they push, the launches they announce, and the ads they pay to put in front of your customers. DentAlert follows the rivals you picked on Facebook and Instagram every week and pulls out what actually matters, so you see their moves without scrolling the feeds yourself.
Promotions and offers
When a rival posts a deal, a discount, or a limited-time offer, it is competing for the same customers you are. We surface the promotions your competitors push on Facebook and Instagram, so you can match or counter them in time.
New launches
A new product, a new service, a new opening: social is usually where a competitor announces it first. We pick up the launches they post, so you hear about a new offer when it goes live, not weeks later.
Ads they are running
We show you which of your rivals are actively running ads on Facebook and Instagram right now. Knowing who is paying to reach your customers, and who is not, tells you where the pressure in your market is really coming from.
Follower movement
A following that climbs week after week is a sign a competitor is gaining ground locally. We track each rival's follower count and how it moves, so you can see who is building an audience and who is losing one.
Job ads
Hiring posts say a lot. A rival advertising for staff usually means they are growing, opening longer, or stretched thin. We catch the roles they put out on social, so you read the ambition or the strain behind the hire.
Where they show up
Not every competitor is on every platform. We show you which of your rivals are active on Facebook, on Instagram, or on both, so you know where they are reaching customers and where there is room for you.
Three steps to your first report.
Find your business.
Enter your postcode and business name, and we pull your profile straight from Google Maps. It takes a few seconds, with no long forms and no account to set up first. Whether you run a restaurant, a salon, a trade, or a shop, if local customers can find you, we can find you too.
Choose who to watch.
We show you the other businesses nearby in your category, and you pick the ones you actually compete with. There is no algorithm guessing on your behalf. You know your street better than any tool does, so you start with a few names and adjust the list whenever you like as your competition changes.
Get your weekly email.
Your first 30 days are free, so you see the value before you pay anything. Every week a short email lands with every move your competitors made, across their Google profile, website, social, and reviews. It takes a minute to read, with the full report attached whenever you want more detail.
