Competitor Newsletter Tracker

About this kit

Weekly High-only pulse on competitor newsletters and archive pages.

• Finds latest issues via Exa; scrapes archive and issue pages (capped)
• Recovers prior issue titles/dates; skips already-briefed issues
• Full digest only on High product, pricing, or GTM signals
• Every 168 hours; one quiet line otherwise — no drafts
• Not Competitor Site Pulse (pages) or Morning Signal Diet (topics)

How it works

Web Search

Find latest competitor newsletter issues, archive pages, and cited product/pricing/GTM mentions via Exa.

• Search: Search for newsletter archives, latest issues, and subscribe or archive hosts.
• Search news: Pull recent news that names a newsletter issue with a product or pricing signal.
• Get contents: Fetch issue or archive page text when a scrape is unnecessary or blocked.
• Answer: Get a cited answer on whether an issue contains a launch, pricing, or GTM change.
• Find similar: Find pages similar to a strong archive or issue hit.

Firecrawl

Map archive hosts and scrape issue pages when search snippets are too thin to score.

• Scrape: Scrape one archive or issue page as markdown.
• Map: Discover latest-issue URLs from a known newsletter archive host.
• Read account: Check Firecrawl usage before spending scrapes.
