How to use
Step-by-step guide to every feature
Follow these short walkthroughs to set up monitors, triage alerts, and get the most out of your plan — from first sign-up to audit log exports.
Step 1 of 8
Get started in 5 minutes
Create an account, finish onboarding, and land in your dashboard ready to add your first monitor.
- 1
Sign up
Go to Sign up, enter email + password (or use Google), and verify your account.
- 2
Onboarding
Pick your use case and add the first page URL you want to monitor — you can skip and do it later.
- 3
Open the dashboard
You'll land on Dashboard with KPI cards, urgent alerts, and quick links to add monitors.
- 4
Pick a plan
Open Billing to choose Starter, Growth, or Agency — you can switch any time.
Tip: Starter is enough to evaluate; upgrade when you need hourly checks, more monitors, or the audit log.
Step 2 of 8
Create & manage monitors
A monitor is a URL we check on a schedule. Each check stores a versioned snapshot (text + screenshot).
- 1
Open Monitors
From the sidebar click Monitors. You'll see your usage (e.g. 3 / 25) at the top.
- 2
Add monitor
Click 'Add monitor', paste the URL, name it, pick a folder/workspace, and choose a check frequency allowed on your plan.
- 3
Set a baseline
We auto-baseline on the first successful check. You can re-baseline any time from the monitor's menu.
- 4
Bulk actions
Select multiple monitors to pause, resume, move folder, or re-baseline at scale.
- 5
Edit or delete
Open a monitor → Settings to update URL, name, frequency, or delete it.
Tip: Frequency options depend on your plan: Starter = daily, Growth = 6h, Agency = hourly.
Step 3 of 8
Review snapshots & diffs
Every check is a snapshot. When content changes we generate a word-level diff with before/after evidence.
- 1
Open a monitor
Click any monitor row to view its history timeline.
- 2
Compare versions
Pick any two snapshots to see a side-by-side diff with highlighted additions, removals, and screenshot overlay.
- 3
Inspect categories
Each change is tagged: price, feature, policy, layout, or messaging — filter the timeline by category.
- 4
Re-baseline
If a change is intentional and you want to silence repeated alerts, click 'Set as baseline'.
Step 4 of 8
Triage alerts
Alerts are evidence-first: every alert links to the exact diff and screenshot that triggered it.
- 1
Open Alerts
Sidebar → Alerts. Use the filters: severity, category, monitor, status.
- 2
Open an alert
Click the alert to see the diff, screenshot, and the monitor it came from.
- 3
Mark useful or dismiss
Mark Useful to keep it in your reporting, or Dismiss to suppress noise. You can add a note for context (Agency+).
- 4
Bulk triage
Select multiple alerts to dismiss or mark useful together — speeds up daily reviews.
Tip: Set Slack/webhook delivery so urgent alerts come to you instead of you checking the inbox.
Step 5 of 8
Connect Slack, webhooks & email digests
Route alerts and digests to where your team already works.
- 1
Open Settings → Integrations
Choose Slack, generic Webhook, or Email digest.
- 2
Slack
Click Connect Slack, pick the channel, and choose which severities to push (e.g. high + critical only).
- 3
Webhook
Paste your endpoint URL and signing secret — we sign every payload and retry on failure.
- 4
Email digest
Pick daily or weekly, add recipients, and choose categories to include.
Step 6 of 8
Workspaces & folders
Organize monitors per client, brand, or competitor so dashboards and reports stay clean.
- 1
Create a workspace
Settings → Workspaces → New. Name it after the client or brand.
- 2
Add folders
Inside a workspace, create folders (e.g. 'Pricing pages', 'Competitor A').
- 3
Invite teammates
Settings → Members → Invite. Assign role: Admin, Editor, or Viewer.
- 4
Switch context
Use the workspace picker in the sidebar to scope all views to one client.
Step 7 of 8
Use the executive dashboard
A daily glance at urgent alerts, monitor health, and category trends.
- 1
Open Dashboard
Sidebar → Dashboard. KPI cards show alerts today, by severity, and monitor health.
- 2
Drill in
Click any KPI card to jump to the filtered alerts or monitors view.
- 3
Export
Use Export to download a CSV for stakeholder reporting.
Step 8 of 8
Run competitive analysis
Turn monitored competitors into a live comparison board with pricing trends and a move timeline.
- 1
Tag monitors as competitors
On any monitor, set type = 'Competitor' and assign it to a competitor folder so it joins the analysis board.
- 2
Open Competitive analysis
Sidebar → Competitive analysis. You'll see all competitors side-by-side with their latest plans, prices, and policies.
- 3
Compare plans & features
Switch to the matrix view to stack pricing tiers and feature lists across competitors in one grid.
- 4
Review the move timeline
The timeline tab shows every detected change chronologically with the before/after evidence attached.
- 5
Track pricing trends
Open the Trends tab to chart per-plan price history and direction over time.
- 6
Export a brief
Export a weekly competitor brief as CSV or PDF to share with PMM, sales, or leadership.
Tip: Growth plan unlocks up to 5 competitor boards; Agency unlocks unlimited boards with shareable client reports.
