What it does

Turns a long, noisy earnings-call transcript into a handful of clean, comparable rows in your competitor tracker. Each signal captures the competitor, theme, the exact quote, and a strategic interpretation — so analysts read structured intelligence instead of re-reading transcripts.

When to use it

Use it when you maintain a competitive-intelligence tracker and want every competitor earnings call distilled the same way, every quarter, without manual note-taking. Best for teams covering 5-20 public competitors where consistency matters more than depth.

How it works

  1. 1A scheduled run fires after a competitor's known earnings date.
  2. 2Firecrawl scrapes the investor-relations transcript page and returns clean markdown.
  3. 3OpenAI reads the transcript and extracts a JSON array of signals, each tagged with a theme (pricing, product, geo, guidance, hiring) and a confidence score.
  4. 4A filter drops low-confidence or off-topic items so the tracker stays signal-dense.
  5. 5Each surviving signal is appended as a row to the Coda competitor tracker with quote, theme, and interpretation.
  6. 6A short summary line is written back to confirm the run and row count.
