Intelligence is a one-time workspace setup. Run the wizard once, and Rocket monitors your competitors from that point forward. This walkthrough covers the four-step wizard. Your first brief arrives within 24 hours.
You need a Rocket account to follow along. If you have not signed up yet, create an account first.

Set up Intelligence

The wizard has four steps shown as a vertical progress tracker on the left side of the modal:
  • Completed steps show a filled green circle.
  • The current step shows a filled white circle.
  • Upcoming steps show an empty outline circle.
You can use Back at any point to revisit a previous step.

  • They launch a new paid campaign in your space
Click Approve to activate. Intelligence begins scanning immediately.

Additional payment for extra competitors

If the number of competitors you added during onboarding exceeds the credit limit included in your Intelligence plan, the final step displays an Additional Payment Required section. This section shows a detailed cost breakdown: the number of included competitors, the number of additional competitors, and the total additional charge.
  • Click Approve & Pay at the bottom of the screen. You are redirected to Stripe checkout to complete the additional payment.
  • After successful payment, you are redirected back to the Intelligence section where monitoring begins.
If the number of competitors does not exceed your plan’s included credit limit, this section does not appear. A simple Approve button is shown instead of Approve & Pay.

After approval

Intelligence shows a loading screen with the message “Rocket Intelligence is gathering data”. The initial data collection takes 1-3 hours depending on the number of competitors you added and their volume of activity. You do not need to keep the page open. Intelligence sends you an email notification once gathering is complete. Click Back to Home to return to your workspace while it runs in the background. Your competitors appear in the Intelligence panel in your sidebar. Your business is listed as My business at the top; each competitor you added appears below it. Signals start arriving based on your frequency settings. You can also open All signals feed from the VIEWS section in the sidebar to see every signal as it comes in.
