Spent a lot of time analyzing competitors before launch, but once building started, all those notes became outdated pretty quick.
Tracking everything daily creates useless noise, but waiting months might mean missing major pricing or feature updates. Not sure what's actually worth keeping an eye on long term.
How often do you look at competing products, and what metrics or changes do you totally ignore?
I m Abbas, the founder of Palance. We build portfolio analytics for people who want to know why a portfolio did what it did, not just what it s worth today. Attribution, sensitivities, simulation, and an AI assistant for when you d rather ask than click.
I m curious how people actually use this stuff. When your portfolio jumps or drops, what do you reach for first? A breakdown of what drove it, a stress test, or a quick look and a deep breath? And what s the question you wish your portfolio tool could answer but can t? The weirder the better. Some of our best ideas started as this is probably too niche and turned out to be what everyone wanted.
