Rival IQ
Competitive social media analytics tool for benchmarking a brand's performance against named competitors.
Rival IQ is a social media analytics platform focused on competitive benchmarking: it tracks a brand's own social posting performance alongside a set of named competitors across networks, plus a lighter social-listening feature, saved keyword searches, on higher tiers. It is priced per month by the number of tracked companies, months of historical data retained, and user seats rather than by posting volume, since it does not publish scheduling tools of its own. It is aimed at marketing teams and agencies whose main need is comparative reporting, how a brand's engagement and posting cadence compares to named rivals, rather than broad, unstructured social listening across the open web.
