# Market Leaderboard

> Compare competitors by rating, reviews, velocity, visibility, health, revenue, and estimated business value.

The **Market Leaderboard** helps you see who is winning in your local market and why.

## What the leaderboard ranks

* Rating
* Review count
* Review velocity
* Local search visibility
* Listing health score
* Health score
* Estimated annual revenue
* Estimated business value
* Recent competitive movement

## Pagination and filters

The leaderboard supports paginated market browsing, so page 2 and later pages continue showing populated businesses rather than a loading or empty state. Use city, category, country, state, time range, sort, and minimum-review filters to narrow the comparison set.

The total count is the number of collected businesses in the current filtered result set. Page labels such as `51-100 of 200` reflect the current filters and page size.

Time range filters recalculate the metrics they affect, including review velocity, recent review volume, health score, and aggregate cards. They do not randomize results on refresh.

## Aggregate cards

The leaderboard summary can show:

* Average rating
* Median rating
* Average health score
* Average review count
* Estimated market revenue range
* Estimated market value range
* Premium and distressed competitor counts

Revenue and business value metrics are directional estimates from public signals. They are designed for prioritization and comparison, not financial advice.

## How to use it

1. Open **Dashboard > Market**.
2. Choose the relevant category or market segment.
3. Sort by rating, review count, health score, revenue, estimated business value, or visibility.
4. Open a competitor to review the details behind the score.

## Reading the Results

A competitor with a lower rating can still outrank others if it has stronger review velocity, better listing coverage, broader local visibility, or stronger valuation signals. Use the leaderboard as a triage view, then open competitor details for the underlying metrics.
