What does Competitor Intel show?
Competitor Intel uses the LinkedIn Ad Library to pull active ads from your competitors and generates an AI comparative analysis covering messaging, creative strategy, and positioning relative to your brand.
Competitor Intelligence in Revenue Proven shows you what your competitors are currently running on LinkedIn. You enter your company name, an AI model identifies your top competitors, and Revenue Proven fetches their active ads from the LinkedIn Ad Library and generates a comparative analysis.
How the analysis works
The analysis runs in four stages. First, an LLM identifies up to ten distinct competitors based on your company name. Second, Revenue Proven fetches up to eight active ads per company from the LinkedIn Ad Library. Third, the LLM generates a comparative report covering messaging themes, creative styles, strengths and weaknesses per competitor, and strategic recommendations. The full process typically takes 30 to 90 seconds.
What the output includes
- AI-generated analysis of each competitor's ad strategy and messaging themes
- Strengths and weaknesses per competitor relative to your positioning
- Strategic recommendations based on the competitive landscape
- Ad thumbnails and copy for each fetched ad from the LinkedIn Ad Library
Requirements and access
Competitor Intelligence requires a LinkedIn connection with the r_ad_library scope. LinkedIn grants this scope only after Ad Library access is approved for your developer application. If your LinkedIn app does not have this approval, the feature shows an empty state with guidance on how to apply. Each workspace is rate limited to ten analysis requests per minute.
