On a Competitor Release Webhook, Measure Its App-Rank Impact

When a competitor-release webhook fires, snapshots the named app's BigQuery rank trajectory before and after the event, judges whether the release moved the needle.

How it runs

The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

  • TriggerCompetitor release webhookHTTP webhook
  • LogicExtract competitor app and event date
  • ActionQuery pre/post rank trajectory in BigQueryGoogle BigQueryBigQuery
  • LogicCompute delta and classify impact
  • OutputLog impact verdict to NotionNotionNotion

What it does

This is an event-driven impact tracker. When your release-monitoring source posts a webhook (a competitor shipped a new version or feature), the workflow reads the competitor and event date from the payload, then queries BigQuery for that app's install-rank trajectory in the days before and after. It computes the pre/post delta, decides whether the release plausibly drove a rank change, and records a structured impact note in Notion for later pattern analysis.

When to use it

Use it when you already capture competitor release signals (changelog scrapers, app-store version feeds) and want to systematically learn which kinds of releases actually move ranks. It builds an evidence base over time rather than reacting to a single day.

How it works

  1. 1An incoming webhook trigger delivers the release event payload.
  2. 2A logic step extracts the competitor app and event date.
  3. 3A BigQuery query returns the app's rank trajectory across the pre/post window.
  4. 4A logic step computes the delta and classifies impact as material or negligible.
  5. 5The verdict and evidence are written as a Notion record in the impact log.

Set it up

What you configure once, before turning it on.

  1. 1
    Connect HTTP webhookTrigger any URL on agent actions.
  2. 2
    Connect BigQueryDatasets, queries, schemas.
  3. 3
    Connect NotionPages, databases, comments.
  4. 4
    Set each agent's modelWe leave models unset so you pick the tier — fast + cheap, or top-quality.
  5. 5
    Tune it to your dataEdit the prompts, filters, and field mappings so it matches how your team works.
  6. 6
    Test, then turn it onRun once against a sample, confirm the output, then enable the trigger.
