Monitor websites for new content and changes.

Visit WebSite-Watcher

WebSite-Watcher is a Windows application that monitors web pages, documents and feeds for changes and highlights what is new. It runs locally without a cloud account, and can be configured to check content at set intervals, filter out irrelevant updates, and alert only when specific keywords appear.

It monitors web pages, PDF, Word and Excel files, RSS and Atom feeds, and social media pages, with a screenshot comparison method for visual changes. Check-Macros record logins, search forms and multi-step workflows for replay before checking. Follow-Links adds linked pages to monitor whole sites, while the Plugin system extends check logic using the integrated Basic language. Updates can trigger exports, e-mail alerts, AI workflows or custom tools, and reports can be generated in HTML, CSV, JSON or XML. A smartphone app for Android and iOS displays changed bookmarks, and optional Cloud Sync or a shared folder synchronizes bookmarks across computers.

It suits monitoring of competitor pages, prices and availability, tenders, jobs and listings, news and content, and keyword-based research, with changed content usable as input for AI workflows. A free trial is available, and the product is sold as a Windows application with optional add-ons such as Local Website Archive and Cloud Sync.
