Steps

At most, per call

A store teardown shows how a competitor sells, from the tools behind its site and its traffic to its catalog, prices and ads. With Agentik, your AI reads the store’s technology and organic traffic with DataForSEO, its catalog and policies with Firecrawl, and its ad strategy with Adspy.sh.

Step 1: Read its stack and traffic
DataForSEO detects the store’s platform and apps, and estimates its organic search traffic.

Give this to your agent

Use my connected Agentik MCP server for this job: online store teardown.

Tear down a competitor’s online store. First ask me for the store’s domain and my country.

Detect its platform and apps with dataforseo/domain-analytics-technologies-domain-technologies. Estimate its organic search traffic with dataforseo/dataforseo-labs-google-domain-rank-overview. List its pages with firecrawl/map and read the home page, best sellers, two product pages, shipping and returns with firecrawl/scrape. Find it in the ad library with adspy/search-brands and read its ad strategy with adspy/get-brand-xray.

Finish with its stack, traffic, catalog and pricing, offers, ad strategy, and five things to copy or avoid.

Before running anything, inspect each tool with inspect_tool, ask me for any input you don’t have instead of inventing it, and tell me the total price. Wait for my go. At the end, tell me what Agentik charged.
