Build a battle card for each competitor
Ready for every competitor your buyers bring up.
Where you win, where you lose, and what to ask.
How it works.
River turns what buyers said on your calls, the deals you won and lost and each rival’s reviews and pricing into one honest page you can read mid-call.
Confirm the competitors
River ranks them by how often each comes up in your calls, mail and lost deals.
River gathers the evidence
Buyers’ own words first, then reviews, pricing pages and current ads, every fact dated.
A card for the moment
Honest wins and losses, questions that expose their weak spots, and answers to what they say about you.
What you get.
- A Battle cards Doc with a page per competitor that reads in a minute
- A Sheet of your record against each, their pricing and the one question to ask
- A monthly refresh of reviews, pricing and new call mentions, if you want one

A few things to know.
Will the cards be fair?
Yes. Each card says honestly where you lose and why buyers pick them, since a card that only flatters you falls apart on a real call.
Can the rest of my team use them?
Yes. Name who should get them, and River shares the cards to a shared folder or Slack on your go-ahead. Until then they’re yours alone.
What does it cost?
It uses your plan’s AI credit, like everything else in River. On competitors’ sites it only reads, and never signs up or fills in a form.
