Introduction
Retail media on quick commerce is now a serious spend line. Brands pour budget into sponsored slots on Blinkit, Zepto and Instamart to win the top of search and category pages. But most spend blind — they know what they bid, not what competitors are doing, where, or how heavily. Ad and promotion intelligence closes that gap: it shows you the competitive campaign landscape so your retail-media budget goes where it actually wins.
What Ad Intelligence Reveals
Sponsored Slot Occupancy: Identifies which brands hold paid positions and the keywords or categories where they appear.
Share of Voice (Paid): Measures how much sponsored advertising space each competitor occupies.
Keyword Targeting: Reveals which search terms competitors are bidding on.
Promotion Depth: Tracks competitors’ discounts and deals, including where and how often they run them.
Creative & Offer: Shows the offers and marketing messages competitors promote.
Pincode Variation: Identifies the geographic areas where competitors concentrate their advertising spend.
The budget insight: ad intelligence tells you two things worth money — where a competitor is spending heavily (so you don't waste budget fighting their deepest pockets) and where the sponsored space is cheap or empty (your opening). Both are invisible without external tracking.

Real-World Example: Optimising Ad Sets Against Competitors
A brand running quick-commerce ads wanted to see competitor sponsored placements and promotions to optimise its ad sets. Actowiz tracked sponsored-slot occupancy and promo activity across keywords and pincodes, revealing where a competitor dominated paid placement (budget to avoid head-on) and where sponsored space was winnable. The brand reallocated spend to the winnable terms and zones.
"We'd been bidding hardest exactly where the competition was heaviest. The data showed us the open lanes we'd been ignoring."

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you tell what competitors are spending?
We don't get actual spend figures (only the platform has those), but sponsored-slot occupancy and share of paid voice are strong, actionable proxies for where and how heavily competitors invest.
Is it pincode-level?
Yes — sponsored placements and promotions are captured per pincode, since campaigns are often geo-targeted.
Does it combine with share-of-search and pricing?
Yes — ad intelligence pairs with share-of-search and price tracking for a complete competitive picture.
