Anything under your confidence bar waits for a human.
A DeskFerry agent watches for the triggers specific to Digital Marketing Competitor Monitoring, pulls the context it needs from your CRM, inbox, calendar and operational systems, and completes each step with the same rules an experienced operator would apply. Get notified instantly when competitors change pricing, launch features, or publish content. Teams typically see same-day from competitor move to alert once the agent is in production. The agent runs on a configurable confidence threshold, escalates edge cases to a human, and writes every action to an audit log you can review at any time.
How you tell it what to do
Built in plain English.
You write the rule the way you'd describe it to a teammate. The agent reads the rule, breaks it into the actions it'll take, and confirms the apps it'll touch — before it does anything.
