Competitor Changelog Classifier and Log
Polls competitors' changelog and release-notes pages, classifies each new entry by theme and significance with Perplexity, and appends an enriched row to a Coda tracking table.

What it does
Keeps a tidy, searchable record of everything your competitors ship. It pulls new changelog entries, has an LLM tag each one (feature, fix, deprecation, security, AI/ML) and rate its strategic significance, then files it in a Coda table so product and marketing can scan months of competitor activity at a glance.
When to use it
Use it when you want a durable, structured archive of competitor releases rather than one-off pings — ideal for building battlecards, spotting roadmap patterns, and prepping QBRs.
How it works
- 1A schedule runs every few hours across your list of competitor changelog URLs.
- 2Firecrawl scrapes each changelog and extracts individual entries with their dates.
- 3A logic step compares entry IDs against Coda to keep only entries not already logged.
- 4Perplexity classifies each new entry: category, one-line summary, and a high/medium/low significance score with reasoning.
- 5Each enriched entry is appended as a new row in the Coda changelog table.
