Watch the accounts you actually compete with. Mentions and campaigns across Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and TikTok, plus deep Instagram posting-habit benchmarks against yours, in presentation-ready reports.
### The picture you actually get.

- **20** – competitors tracked
- **4** – networks monitored
- **4.6/5** – on G2

## The competitors you name, beside your own numbers.

Pick up to 20 accounts you actually compete with and watch how they post, grow and engage against you over time. See Instagram post volume, likes, comments and engagement rates side by side, follower growth as it moves, and AI-summarised highlight reels of what each competitor is doing right.

### Watch what your rivals launch as they launch it.

Track each competitor's mentions, campaigns and keywords across Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and TikTok, and let AI summarise the highlight reel. Spot a campaign launch early, see which content is earning engagement, and read it beside your own performance instead of screenshotting profiles by hand.

### Three reads that turn watching into strategy.

- **Pick who you watch** – Track up to 20 competitors across Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and TikTok, individually or as a group you measure against yourself.
- **Posting and engagement deltas** – See Instagram post volume, likes, comments and engagement rate against yours, plus follower growth over time, so you know who is pulling ahead.
- **AI highlight reels** – AI summarises each competitor's recent wins and the moments you might have missed, so a scan takes minutes rather than an afternoon.

### Automatic tracking beats a folder of screenshots.

**Screenshotting rivals by hand**
- Open each competitor's profile one at a time
- Eyeball their posting cadence from memory
- Guess at engagement rates with no baseline
- Rebuild the same comparison deck every month

**Sked Social**
- Track up to 20 named competitors automatically
- See Instagram post volume, likes and engagement against yours
- Watch follower growth over time as it moves
- Export a one-click presentation-ready competitive report

- **Agencies** – Give clients a competitive read they can present, exported in one click with AI insights on top.
- **Founders and brand leads** – Spot a competitor's campaign launch early and react while it still matters, instead of finding out a month later.

## Questions about Competition monitoring

### How many competitors can I track?

Up to 20 direct competitors, the ones you actually compete with. Track them individually or as a group, and compare their numbers against your own rather than an industry average you cannot inspect.

### Which platforms are covered?

Competitor performance and social listening span Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and TikTok. Advanced posting-habit analytics, including post volume, likes, comments and engagement rates versus yours, focus on Instagram.

### What competitor data do I get?

Posting cadence, likes, comments and engagement rates against yours, follower growth over time, and AI-summarised highlight reels of each competitor's recent wins. You also see who is engaging and the best times to reach them.

### Can I share the competitive analysis?

Yes. Build a custom report across organic and paid with AI insights, export it presentation-ready in one click, or share an expiring view-only link so stakeholders see the numbers without a Sked login.

### Do I get audience insights too?

Yes. See who is viewing and engaging with your content in real time and the best times they will actually see your posts, so you can schedule around the audience you and your competitors share.

### Which plans include competition monitoring?

The number of competitors you can track scales with your plan, up to 20 on the higher tiers. The pricing page shows exactly what each plan covers so you can match it to how closely you watch the field.
