About

A weekly radar for SaaS founders who want to stay on top of competitor moves and market chatter without reading a hundred tabs. Every Wednesday morning the agent gathers posts, news and competitor activity from across the web, scores each item against your product and your ideal customer profile, and delivers a clean brief straight to your inbox.

What it does

The agent produces a themed weekly signal brief. Items are scored on two axes with a relevance veto, so noise gets filtered out and the entries that matter to your business rise to the top. Everything is grouped by theme with the strongest picks first, and items you have already seen are skipped so each brief carries only fresh signal.

  • Pulls posts, news and competitor moves from across the web and from X
  • Scores every item against your product and ICP, not a generic feed
  • Groups findings by theme and leads with the top picks
  • De-duplicates against past runs so nothing repeats
  • Ships the briefing even when one of the sources is down

How it works

The agent runs on a fixed weekly schedule, early Wednesday. Firecrawl handles the web collection, X adds social signal, and the scouting logic applies the scoring lenses, normalizes each item so duplicates are caught, and formats the result as a readable brief. Gmail sends the finished digest to your inbox. Once installed, it repeats every week on its own, so the brief arrives without any manual pull.

Founder Signal Brief

A weekly radar for SaaS founders: posts, news and competitor moves from across the web, each scored against YOUR product and ICP, grouped by theme with top picks first — never an item you have already seen, and the briefing ships even when a source is down.

Frequently asked questions

Which accounts do I need to connect?

Three services: Firecrawl for web collection, X for social signal, and Gmail to send the finished brief to your inbox. Connect all three during setup, which takes about five minutes.

How often does the brief arrive?

Once a week, early Wednesday morning. The agent runs on a fixed schedule at 7am on Wednesdays and repeats on its own, so the brief lands in your inbox without any manual pull.

How does the agent decide what makes the brief?

Every item is scored on two axes against your product and your ideal customer profile, with a relevance veto that filters out noise. Entries that matter rise to the top, and the brief leads with the strongest picks first.

Will I see the same item twice across weeks?

No. Each item is normalized to catch duplicates and checked against past runs, so anything you have already seen is skipped. Each brief carries only fresh signal.

What does the finished brief look like?

A themed HTML email that groups posts, news and competitor moves by theme, with the top picks leading each section. It covers signals pulled from across the web and from X, all scored against your business.

What happens if one of the sources is down?

The brief still ships. The agent is built to deliver the weekly digest even when a source is unavailable, so a single outage does not stop the email from arriving.
