The Agency Pain
Manually researching competitors is slow, inconsistent, and hard to scale. Your team jumps between Google, LinkedIn, and spreadsheets, and still misses key local players. It’s tedious work that eats hours and delivers uneven results.
The Solution
This workflow acts like an AI-powered research analyst. It takes a company name or website, runs structured local competitor research within a 10-mile radius, and returns a clean, ranked list of the top 5 competitors with websites, LinkedIn profiles, and relevance scores.
How It Works
- Capture: A form collects the target company name and/or website.
- Analyze: An AI agent researches the company’s industry, location, and services, then searches for nearby competitors using search data.
- Deliver: Results are validated, scored, and structured into clean competitor profiles ready for reporting or downstream automation.
Prerequisites
- n8n
- OpenAI or Google Gemini API
- SerpAPI
- Apify (for LinkedIn data scraping)

- Saves 5–10 hours per research project
