In short

How do I track competitor ratings and reviews in my Capterra category?

WebRun opens your Capterra category page every Monday and records your listing and each tracked competitor with its star rating, review count, and badges. It files the comparison in Google Drive with the week over week change and drafts a summary email in Gmail, so a competitor pulling ahead is noticed early.

  • Category movement is noticed weekly, not on a sales call
  • A dated file builds a real history of your category
  • Every competitive claim is reviewed by a person before it is sent

Good to know

Questions, answered

Does it post reviews or edit our listing?

No. WebRun only reads the public category page. It never writes a review, replies to one, or changes anything on your Capterra listing, so nothing public is touched.

Will it email the summary without me?

No. The summary is left as a Gmail draft. Product marketing reads it and decides whether to send, so no competitive claim goes out before a person has checked it.

Are the numbers reliable?

They are whatever the public Capterra page displays that week, recorded as shown. WebRun never estimates a rating or a review count, so the file only ever contains figures it actually read.

Put this on autopilot.
