Competitor price monitoring software that reports only changes

When it runs

The default schedule is every day at 08:00 in America/New_York, written as 0 8 * * *. Pricing changes often go live overnight or early in the week, so an 08:00 check catches them as the sales team starts calls. If you sell into fast moving markets, Pro lets you check as often as every 15 minutes and Teams every 5 minutes, though most teams find a daily check enough.

Each competitor page uses a short amount of browser time. Ten competitors checked daily stays well within the 60 browser minutes included in Starter for most pricing pages.

Each step explained

1. 1Load the last snapshot. A memory step reads the prices and plans stored after the previous run.
2. 2Open each pricing page. A browser step loads the page, waits for scripts and toggles monthly or yearly views when needed.
3. 3Extract the pricing table. An AI step turns the page into plan names, prices, periods and limits.
4. 4Compare with last run. An AI step lists the differences and ignores layout or wording changes that do not affect the offer.
5. 5Check if anything changed. A condition step stops the run quietly when there are no differences.
6. 6Post to Slack. The integration step posts a short summary with old and new values and a link to the page.
7. 7Save the new snapshot. A memory step stores today's data for tomorrow's comparison.

How memory removes noise

Price monitoring is only useful if it is quiet when nothing happens. The memory policy stores a structured snapshot per competitor, not a copy of the page, so a new banner, a reworded headline or a moved button does not trigger an alert. Only changes to prices, plan names, billing periods, limits and listed features count.

If a page fails to load, the browser step retries three times. If it still fails, the agent keeps the old snapshot and notes the failure in the run log rather than reporting a false change.

Customising the monitor

• Add or remove competitor URLs directly in the instruction sentence.
• Only alert when a price drops, or only when it changes by more than a set amount.
• Send a weekly roll up to Gmail in addition to the daily Slack post.
• Write every snapshot to Google Sheets to build a price history.
• Watch other pages too, such as feature pages or changelogs.

Who uses a competitor price monitor

Product marketers use it to keep battlecards current. Founders use it to see when a rival changes packaging. Sales leaders use it to prepare reps before a prospect mentions a cheaper offer. Ecommerce teams can point it at product pages instead of SaaS pricing pages to track list prices on a handful of key products.
