RivalSonar vs Shophunter: questions
Is RivalSonar's sales tracker hourly like Shophunter's?
Yes. Tracked stores are checked every hour, and you see estimated hourly orders and which products sold. The first report is ready about 24 hours after you start tracking.
Which ad networks does RivalSonar cover?
Meta (Facebook and Instagram), TikTok, Pinterest and Snapchat. Each ad shows reach where the platform publishes it, an estimated spend and how many days it has been active.
Are the sales figures exact?
No outside tool can see a store's real orders, so every sales figure, ours included, is an estimate. Use them to compare stores and follow trends.
