Affiliate competitor tracking & analysis with AI, Bright Data, Sheets & Slack

How it Works

This workflow automatically monitors competitor affiliate programs twice daily using Bright Data's web scraping API to extract commission rates, cookie durations, average order values, and payout terms from competitor websites. The AI analysis engine scores each competitor (0-100 points) by comparing their commission rates, cookie windows, earnings per click (EPC), and affiliate-friendliness against your program, then categorizes them as Critical (70+), High (45-69), Medium (25-44), or Low (0-24) threat levels.

Critical and high-threat competitors trigger immediate Slack alerts with detailed head-to-head comparisons and strategic recommendations, while lower threats route to monitoring channels. All competitors are logged to Google Sheets for tracking and historical analysis. The system generates personalized email reports—urgent action plans with 24-48 hour deadlines for critical threats, or standard intelligence updates for routine monitoring.

The entire process takes minutes from scraping to strategic alert, eliminating manual competitive research and ensuring you never lose affiliates to better-positioned competitor programs.
