See what competing brands send and which campaigns get read.
Track competitor email programs without signing up for dozens of newsletters with personal test accounts. Build a watchlist of competing brands and domains, inspect the actual captured HTML and subject lines behind standout sends, and compare sending cadence and estimated panel read rates through the dashboard, REST API, or Bird MCP.
Trusted by engineering and product teams
shipping at global scale.
Ask which competitor campaigns stood out
and inspect the captured email.
Query your brand watchlist through Bird MCP, the CLI, or the dashboard to surface campaigns with unusually high read rates, then open the captured subject line, sender details, and HTML creative alongside panel reach and placement estimates.
Review real competitor creative before
planning your next campaign.
Stop guessing how other brands in your category position seasonal launches, promotions, or lifecycle nudges. Open the captured emails behind high-performing sends to compare subject lines, hero imagery, and calls to action side by side.
Campaign examples shown use illustrative brands. Competitor reach, inbox placement, and read rates are directional panel estimates.
Ready to build?
Spot when competitors send and which
messages break through the inbox.
Track weekly sending frequency, day-of-week patterns, and estimated inbox versus spam placement across the brands your audience follows. See whether a competitor's spike in read rate came from a new subject line angle, a shift in send day, or a cleaner sender setup, then apply those lessons to your own broadcasts.
Competitive Insights, explained.
Are competitor send volumes exact?
No. Competitor send volumes, inbox placement, and read rates come from an opted-in consumer measurement panel and should be treated as directional estimates rather than exact provider totals. Coverage varies by brand, sending domain, and reporting period.
Can I see every email a competitor sends?
No. The campaign feed includes promotional and lifecycle emails captured across the consumer panel, not every transactional receipt or narrowly targeted segment a brand sends. Use captured campaigns to study creative trends, subject line angles, and sending cadence rather than as a complete audit of a competitor's mail.
Can I compare competitor read rates with my open rate?
Treat them as different signals rather than a direct one-to-one benchmark. Competitor read rates come from panel engagement across participating mailboxes, whereas your own open rate in Bird tracks pixel loads (which mail privacy proxies can inflate). Compare a competitor's campaign against that brand's own baseline to spot standout sends.
Scale without losing control.
Separate production and sandbox traffic into dedicated workspaces, scope API keys to the exact channels each service or agent needs, and track permission changes in the audit log.
