Follow competitors in the news

Updated 20 October 2026Open News & more โ†’

In short

Riposte searches the news for each competitor every morning and sorts the stories into launches, partnerships, awards, funding, leadership and trouble. Each story is explained for your product, with what to do, under News & more.

Big competitor moments often happen outside their website: a funding round, an analyst award, an outage. Riposte catches those too.

How it works

Every morning, Riposte searches the news for each competitor by name. Stories are grouped, explained for your product, and sorted by type.

News sorted into launches, partnerships, awards, funding, leadership and trouble

Find a story

  1. Open News & more.
  2. Pick a type, such as Awards & recognition or Funding.
  3. Pick a competitor to see only their stories.

Awards are sales moments

When a competitor wins an award, buyers will ask about it. The signal suggests what sales can say back.

Questions

Where does the news come from?

From news sites and press releases that mention the competitor's exact name, from the last 14 days. Several articles about the same story are grouped into one.

Do I need to set anything up?

No. News coverage is added for every competitor automatically.

What kinds of stories does Riposte sort?

Launches, partnerships, awards and recognition (like Gartner or G2), funding, leadership changes, trouble (outages, layoffs, lawsuits) and other mentions.

Do news stories also show in my feed?

Yes. News signals appear in your feed too. News & more keeps them in one place so big moments don't get lost between website changes.
