Capture Competitive Screenshots

As a founder, marketer or product person, it can be extremely valuable to keep track of how your competitors are evolving the messaging and positioning of their product. This doc makes it easy to automate that process.

Bannerbear⁠

using Coda’s built-in integration layer called Packs. If you’re curious about Packs, check out

You’ll need a Bannerbear account, loaded with credits. Note that each screenshot you take will require one Bannerbear credit. You can

signup for Bannerbear here⁠

and view their

pricing here⁠

After you setup your account, in this doc, navigate to Insert > Packs > Bannerbear > Settings and click Sign In . After that, you should be ready to test it out.

Change the competitors in the

Competitors⁠

table to the relevant ones for your business.

Press the Capture all screenshots button at the top. That button goes through and automatically presses the buttons on each of the rows in the

Competitors⁠

table.

Optional: this doc uses a Coda feature called

Automations⁠

to automate the process of pushing the Capture all screenshots button below. You can click the gear icon at the top right, then Automations to view and edit the automation rule. The doc is set to capture screenshots weekly, but you can set it to any time frame you choose in the automation rule.
