How to Track Competitors and Risks Across Every Meeting

Your Meetings Contain Competitive Intelligence

Somewhere in last week's sales call, a prospect mentioned a competitor. In a product meeting, someone flagged a risk. In a customer success call, a churn signal appeared. All of it was captured in the transcript. None of it was surfaced.

The problem is not a lack of information — it is that the information is scattered across dozens of meetings and nobody is connecting the dots.

What Watchlist Does

Beaver AI's Watchlist lets you define keywords and topics that matter to your business, then automatically monitors every meeting transcript for mentions. When a match is found, you get an alert with the full context.

Watchlist categories include:

  • Competitor: Track mentions of specific competitors across sales calls, product discussions, and customer conversations
  • Risk: Monitor for terms like "delay," "blocker," "concerned," or custom risk indicators
  • Opportunity: Catch mentions of expansion, upsell, or partnership signals
  • Project: Track specific projects or initiatives across all meetings where they are discussed
  • Custom: Define any keyword or phrase relevant to your business

How Alerts Work

When a watchlist term is mentioned in a meeting, Beaver AI creates an alert that includes:

  • The meeting where the term appeared
  • The surrounding context — not just the keyword, but the full passage
  • Who said it and when in the meeting it occurred

Alerts can be delivered via email or pushed to Slack, so the right people see them without having to read every transcript.

Use Cases

Sales teams: Set up competitor watchlists. When a prospect mentions a competitor by name, the account owner gets an alert with context — invaluable for tailoring the follow-up.

Product teams: Track feature requests and pain points that customers mention repeatedly. A keyword appearing across 15 customer calls in a month is a signal your roadmap should reflect.

Leadership: Monitor for risk signals across the organisation. If "deadline at risk" appears in three different team meetings, you know before it escalates.
