Competitor Analysis
Add competitors by domain, crawl them with the same engine, and see exactly where they win. Across technical SEO, keywords, content, backlinks, and AI search.
What you get
Competitor crawling
Add competitors by domain. CrawlTide crawls them with the same SEO detection engine used on your own site, so the comparison is apples-to-apples on issues, structure, and on-page signals.
Head-to-head health scores
Compare overall site health, technical debt, and issue counts side-by-side. Spot where competitors are winning the technical baseline and where you're already ahead.
Keyword gap analysis
Surface keywords competitors rank for that you don't. Filtered by search volume, position, and intent. The highest-leverage opportunities surface first.
Content gap analysis
Find topics competitors cover that you haven't published yet. Each gap converts into a content brief with the competitor's cited page as a reference.
Competitor backlinks
Pull each competitor's backlink profile so you can identify shared link sources and unique opportunities. Surfaces in the link gap view alongside your own backlinks.
AI Visibility cross-reference
See which competitors show up in ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews for prompts you care about. Even when their domain isn't on the SERP. Brand-name detection in answer text plus source-URL matching.
Apples-to-apples comparison
Every competitor is profiled with the same data points CrawlTide tracks for your own site, so head-to-head comparisons stay honest.
How competitor analysis works
Add a competitor by domain
From the project's Competitors tab, paste a competitor's domain. CrawlTide validates ownership, sets up the comparison record, and queues the first crawl.
Same crawl, same engine
The competitor crawler reuses the same detection engine that runs on your own site. Same issue types, same scoring, same depth. No black-box differences in the comparison.
Keyword + backlink sync
CrawlTide syncs the competitor's tracked keywords and backlink profile via DataForSEO. Both feed the gap views automatically.
Gaps surface across the product
Keyword gaps show in the Keywords page; content gaps show in the Content Planner; backlink overlap shows in the Backlinks page; AI Visibility prompts where competitors are cited highlight automatically.
