For the next two weeks, every Monday and Thursday at 08:00, you get a Black Week Live edition for your brand, built on the previous day's market data.

  • Scoreboard, competitor moves, audience pull

Thank you. You're on the list.

We'll confirm by email and send your first edition on the next Monday or Thursday at 08:00.

Your war room sees your business. The market moves somewhere else.

Revenue by hour, conversion by channel, stock by SKU. All useful, all about you. Meanwhile Black Week no longer starts on Black Friday. It starts on Singles Day, and in paid search it starts long before that. By the time everyone talks about Black Friday, the best openings are crowded and expensive.

Your war room needs 3 decisions, not another dashboard

Every theme, offer mechanic and message in your segment gets one of three labels every morning. That's the whole decision. The hard part is knowing which is which by 08:00.

Push now

The audience is moving toward a theme and few competitors are there. Put homepage space, paid budget and CRM there today.

People pulling, few brands present.

Watch

Something is building. Not yet worth money. You'll know tomorrow morning if it tips.

Rising, but not confirmed.

Why this isn't another dashboard

Any tool can generate a campaign idea. What decides is the data underneath: all channels, the last weeks plus last year's Black Week, and how the audience actually responded.

Breadth

2,000 brands, not the 15 on your slide

Your panel of 10 to 20 competitors by name, inside a market pool of 2,000 brands, including the ones you would never put on your list.

Where it starts

Paid, not just the feed

20+ channels including paid social, SEA and Google Shopping. Black Week moves in the auction before it shows up on Instagram.

Signal

Pull, not volume

Three questions per theme: is the audience moving toward it, how many brands are already there, and is growth coming from people pulling or brands pushing?

Memory

Last year's Black Week included

Every edition reads today against the prior-year window. That's how we can show you Black Friday 2025 in your segment, with your competitors, in the first call.
