Website Change Detection Tool
Monitor website changes with clean and accurate text-based detection.
What is website change detection?
Website change detection is the process of automatically checking a webpage at regular intervals and alerting you when the content changes.
It is used to track price updates, job postings, product availability, government notices, documentation updates, news edits and more.
Most tools rely on screenshots or heavy browser rendering, which leads to noise and false alerts.
Monitoraa uses a lightweight text extraction system that focuses only on meaningful content.

Monitoraa avoids these issues by extracting text only and removing dynamic elements.
