Sonar maps the market you're actually in

Three questions about your competitors, answered off live TikTok and Instagram data — not a model's best guess.

Find the competitors you don't know about

Sonar works out the niche your audience actually lives in, then scans TikTok and Instagram to surface every competitor fighting for the same audience — including the ones nobody on your team has heard of.

Map the UGC creators behind them

Every competitor gets traced to the creators posting about them — sponsored, organic, ambassador — with follower and view metrics attached. Creators working for more than one competitor get flagged, because that's a partnership you can win.

Get the takeaway, not a dashboard

Sonar writes what changed, why it matters and what to do about it — then cites the exact posts behind every claim, so anyone on your team can verify it in one click.

Format shift

The winning format in your niche moved from “full routine” to “what I removed”. Four of the top five clips this month are subtraction stories — Competitor A has three of them, you have none.

Claim exposure

Two creators posting for you said “repairs your barrier” on camera. That's therapeutic language in a cosmetic category — the same phrasing Competitor B quietly stopped using in March.

@creator-d has posted sponsored content for two of your competitors in 60 days and neither renewed. A proven category creator with no current exclusivity.

Everything else you'd ask for

Always-fresh data

Ask about a niche Sonar hasn't seen and it goes and scrapes it on the spot, then keeps it current in the background.

A standing index

Explore an index of campaigns, brands and creators built across dozens of niches — before you run anything at all.

Yours to correct

Drop a bad match, add a competitor you already knew about, extend the map further — then republish in place.

Built for teams

Invite your team, share a link, and everyone reads the same map instead of three different spreadsheets.

“We found two competitors we'd never heard of — and the creator quietly selling for both of them — in the first twenty minutes.”
