ChangeTower
What it is
ChangeTower monitors named web pages, saves dated snapshots, and sends alerts when changes match criteria users set. Its AI monitoring accepts plain-language descriptions of changes to watch for, while section and element monitoring can narrow checks to selected page content. The browser extension can create a monitor for the page currently open. For pages behind a login, users can record sign-in and other actions for replay before a check. Email alerts are available, with Slack, webhooks, and MCP offered on Business and Enterprise; a native Microsoft Teams integration is in development. The free plan covers 3 pages checked daily and 30 days of snapshot history. Lite costs $12/mo and includes 25 pages and AI monitoring; Essential costs $36/mo, and Business costs $78/mo. Business includes six months of snapshot history, while Enterprise pricing is custom and retention is configured to the customer's policy. Pages that block automated traffic outright, including X, LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram, cannot be monitored. ChangeTower says support replies within one business day on every plan.
