Competitor Finder API lets you find competitors for any company, brand, or product with a single API call.

The Problem

Building a good competitor finder is surprisingly hard. You need the right data sources, logic to filter noise, and constant tuning to separate real competitors from random companies in the same industry.

The Solution

We spent months building and refining this for ChampSignal (our competitor monitoring product). Now we're making it available as a standalone API.

How It Works

Pass a hostname. Get back a ranked list of competitors.

Each result includes:

• Company name and website

• Competitor type (direct or indirect)

• Short reason explaining why they compete

Example Response

Input: figma.com

Output:

- Sketch (Direct) - Mac-focused vector UI design platform

- Penpot (Direct) - Open-source UI/UX design tool

- Framer (Direct) - Visual web-design and prototyping platform

- Miro (Indirect) - Visual collaboration workspace competing with FigJam

Optional Enrichment

Add $0.10 per competitor to get business details:

• Description and pricing info

• Target market (SMB to Enterprise)

• Employee count and founded year

• Public or private ownership

Pricing

Pay-as-you-go. $0.10 per competitor found. No monthly fees. No minimums.

Use Cases

• SaaS Onboarding: Auto-populate competitor lists when users sign up

• Market Research Tools: Power competitive analysis features

• Data Enrichment: Add competitor data to company profiles

Performance

Cached companies return in seconds. New companies take up to 15 minutes as we gather and analyze data.

Built on the same engine that powers ChampSignal in production.
