Dot

Lookout

Checks competitor pricing, changelogs, and X posts every day.

Overview

Lookout is a Dot that keeps watch on competitors you list. Every day it reviews their changelogs, pricing pages, and X accounts. After a change, it posts a two-line note with a screenshot and its meaning for you in a Slack channel such as #competitors. It needs your approval to add a new competitor and is blocked from signing up for accounts.
