2 New Features from Compete

Compete (of Compete Inc) is set to release 2 new reporting additions to their competitive analysis tools suite. Known as "Attention" and "Velocity" these features will be free of cost to all users.

I was able to get first hand insight on this new release through an interview with CTO/Co-Founder, David Cancel.

Here are the questions I posed to David Cancel during our chat:

- Can you give everyone some background on Compete Inc and Compete.com?

- What are the new features that are going to be added to Compete?

- When will these features be publicly available?

- Can this type of reporting be found anywhere else?

- What can Compete offer that someone like HitWise/Alexa can’t?

- Compete.com data and reporting is better used for sites with large amounts of traffic, are sites with 20,000 page views or less a month not your target demographic or is this something you guys plan on improving?

- Why are you making this available for free? Is there a premium, paid version of this product as well?

- How often do you plan on providing new features and reports for Compete?


Here are some screenshots of the newest reports:

Attention: The total time spent on a domain as a percentage of the total time spent online by all US visitors



Velocity
: Used to determine the relative growth of a domain. Effective in determining the impact of planned/unplanned campaigns, events, releases, etc...
