What gets tracked on each network
| Platform | What OutReply records every day |
|---|---|
| Page followers and likes | |
| Followers, number of posts and engagement on recent posts | |
| X | Followers and number of posts |
| YouTube | Subscribers and channel statistics |
| Subreddit members, or karma for a user account | |
| TikTok and LinkedIn | Not tracked: there is no reliable public source |
Instagram numbers come from Meta's business discovery through your connected Instagram account, so they cover professional accounts, and Facebook numbers come through your connected Page. X, YouTube and Reddit figures are public and need no extra connection.
How competitor tracking works
Add your competitors
Enter a competitor's name and handles, or let AI suggest competitors from your brand and connected accounts. Suggested handles on the five tracked networks are checked against public data, and ones that don't exist are dropped.
OutReply takes a daily snapshot
Once a day, each handle's public numbers are recorded. Need fresher data? Refresh a competitor on demand, up to once an hour.
See the ranking
Each competitor gets a market score from their combined followers and a rank against your own, with growth over time.
Hear about overtakes
When a tracked competitor passes you, or you pass them, OutReply sends an in-app notification.

Google Trends, side by side
Followers show reach; search interest shows demand. OutReply compares Google search interest in your brand name and up to four competitors over any window from 7 to 365 days, and lists the rising searches related to your brand. Google Trends is an unofficial source, so on rare days the data isn't available and the chart waits for the next refresh.
On Elite, the market picture also feeds the weekly AI briefing in social media analytics, next to your own performance and audience intelligence. For conversations about competitors rather than their numbers, set up competitor profiles in Reddit monitoring.
