ABOUT

Experience Matters

With 15+ years of competitive intelligence experience ​in both consultant and practitioner roles, we have expertise on both sides of the table and the ability to deliver the competitive reporting you need to succeed. 

 

We have lived the pains of managing CI programs first-hand. Off-the-shelf profiles and landscape reports are too generic and expensive. Battlecards are time-consuming to build and difficult to maintain. CI SaaS solutions have user limits, restrictive formats, and enable rather than deliver actionable intelligence. Not to mention, many organizations suffer from tool fatigue.

 

At RIVL, we offer turnkey competitive services that are tailored to your scope, format, and brand. We serve as an extension of your team to help you better understand and compete against your rivals with insightful and compelling analysis. We handle your competition, and you focus on growing your business!
