See your store beside the brands your shoppers have open in the next tab.

A shopper with two similar jackets open buys from the store with the clearer size guide and the longer returns window. Rivals change both, and drop new collections, without telling you. An Intel loop sets your store beside three rivals you name and shows where the decision tips: the size selector, the returns page, the delivery terms.

Your buyers

How buyers choose between fashion and clothing brands.

Clothing is bought with doubt about fit. A shopper looking at two similar pieces will often choose the store that answers the sizing question best: a size guide on the product page, model measurements, notes on how the cut runs, and reviews that say whether it came up small.

Returns are the second filter. Free returns, the length of the returns window and how easy the process looks all sit in the shopper's mind before they add to bag. A returns policy that is hard to find reads as a returns policy that is hard to use.

Fashion runs on drops and sales, and shoppers who follow a few brands learn their rhythm. If a rival's sale goes live and you do not know, you discover it through a slow week rather than a plan.

A week in your market

The moments that cost or win you work.

A composite, illustrative week of the kind of thing that happens in this trade. It is not a customer's diary and nothing in it is measured.

  1. Monday

    A rival publishes a new collection

    Several new product pages and a lookbook appear on a competitor's sitemap. Their homepage changes, and their social ads switch to the new range the same week.

    What changed on competitor sites?
  2. Tuesday

    Their sale starts early

    A competitor starts a mid-season sale ahead of yours, with a banner across every page. Your full-price pieces are suddenly being compared with their marked-down ones.

    Is my pricing right against rivals?
  3. Wednesday

    Reviews keep saying the sizing runs small

    New reviews on a rival's best-seller say it runs small, and the rival has added a fit note to the product page. Your own reviews say similar things, with no note on your page.

    Why aren't my reviews converting?
  4. Thursday

    You cannot tell which ads are working for them

    A rival seems to be everywhere on social. You want to know which of their ads have been running longest, because those are the ones they keep paying for.

    Are rivals' ads beating mine?
  5. Saturday

    Mobile visitors leave at the size selector

    Your product pages get traffic on phones, but few shoppers choose a size and add to bag. You need to know whether that is the layout, the sizing information or the returns wording.

What we read for a business like yours.

Public evidence about you and the rivals you name. Where a read depends on a loop that is still in build, the loop cards below say so.

New collections and removed lines

Pages added to and removed from each rival's sitemap, so a drop, a lookbook or a discontinued line shows up as a dated change.

Sales and promotions

Promotional banners and offers on the pages you pick, and prices from rivals' product data, so a sale is visible when it starts.

Returns, delivery and sizing clarity

Whether returns terms, delivery options and size guidance are clear where the shopper decides, on your product pages and on theirs.

Fit and quality themes in reviews

Review text for you and each rival grouped into themes such as fit, fabric, delivery and returns experience.

Ads rivals keep running

Rivals' ads from public ad libraries where a library returns them, with new, stopped and longest-running ads tracked.

FAQ

Questions from fashion and clothing brands

Can you tell me when a rival starts a sale?

The competitor website monitor is being built to read promotions and prices on the rival pages you choose and report what changed since the last run. It is in build and not on sale yet.

Do you look at sizing and returns?

Yes. An Intel loop compares your store with three rivals across eight categories, and cart and checkout covers delivery and returns clarity. Product-page detail, including size guidance, is read the same way for every store.

Can you see which of my rivals' ads are working?

Nobody outside a rival's ad account can see its results. What can be seen is which ads they keep running, and for how long, where a public ad library returns them. The competitor ad watch loop is being built around that, and it is not on sale yet.

We sell on marketplaces as well as our own site. Does that count?

The reads described here look at your own store and your rivals' own stores. Marketplace listings are not part of them today.
