RivalBrief turns a public product page into a structured competitor brief — positioning, ICP hypotheses, pricing signals, features, and opportunity moves — in minutes. No calls. No agency. No busywork.

No credit card for your free trial credit. 1 credit = 1 brief · pricing-only check = ½ credit.

Built for indie hackers & solo SaaS · Self-serve · EN-first

Real output excerpt — Linear pricing page, 16 Oct 2026:
“No monthly billing option visible → cash-flow friction for small teams.” Opportunity move: “Test a ‘pay monthly at same annual rate’ toggle on your own pricing page.” — read the full sample brief (hypotheses labeled; verify on source)

How it works

1

Paste a URL

Homepage or pricing page of a public competitor. Optional: add your own URL for a light “vs you” contrast.

2

We fetch public pages

We read up to two public pages (e.g. home, pricing, features or about). No login walls. No scraping behind auth.

3

Get your brief

Snapshot, messaging, ICP hypothesis, pricing signal, feature clusters, strengths/gaps, and 3–5 opportunity moves — plus sources and confidence notes.
