Competitor Digital Audit

Gain a clear picture of your rivals’ digital strategies across Chinese platforms to identify gaps and strategic opportunities.



Knowing your competitors’ moves is critical before launching in China. How do they position themselves? Which platforms do they focus on? How often do they post? What influencers do they work with?

Drifttle provides a structured audit of selected competitors’ presence across social media, search engines, e-commerce, and media. The report shows what’s working, what isn’t, and where you can differentiate.


Why You Need Help

Chinese competitors often operate in fragmented, semi-transparent spaces. It’s hard to gather data across platforms, track engagement quality, or evaluate localisation style without fluent access.

Drifttle collects and interprets this data for you—so you don’t just see what they do, but understand how and why it works (or fails).

Track WeChat, RED, Douyin, Baidu, and e-commerce presence
