PageWatch: Website Change Monitor with AI Diffs
PageWatch: Website Change Monitor with AI Diffs ships as a ready-to-import n8n automation package: load the bundled workflow JSON, connect the credentials listed on this page, and activate it on self-hosted n8n or n8n Cloud.
Catch competitor and client page changes the moment they happen — hourly content hashing plus an AI summary of exactly what changed, alerted to Slack and email.
- Watch unlimited pages from one Google Sheet — add a URL row and it's covered on the next hourly check
- Strip scripts, styles, comments, and markup before hashing so ad rotation and visitor counters never trigger a false alert
- AI writes a plain-English summary of exactly what changed on the page, not just that something changed
- Filter out cosmetic noise with a configurable minimum change threshold
- Alert both Slack and email the moment a real change is detected
- Track every check in the sheet with the latest snapshot, hash, and status for a clean audit trail
- No scraping SaaS subscription required — runs on plain HTTP requests you already have access to
Setup Service — optional live install and test. Choose your tier at checkout (not tied to this template's price).
Paste the license key from your receipt. It must match this template.
