How Monitor Changes Works

At a high level, you create a task, define the target URL and configuration, and trigger an execution. We render the page, capture screenshots, and compare them to a baseline.

Key steps

  1. Spin up a clean browser context for each execution
  2. Wait for the page to reach a stable state
  3. Capture full-page or element-level screenshots
  4. Compute visual diffs and store artifacts

The result is a clear, shareable diff with just the changes that matter.

Notifications

When changes are detected, Monitor Changes automatically sends notifications through your configured channels. You can choose from:

  • Email - Direct notifications to your inbox
  • Slack - Team notifications via webhooks
  • Webhook - Custom integrations and automation
  • Telegram - Mobile notifications via bot
  • Discord - Community notifications via webhooks

Notifications include the detected changes, screenshots, and direct links to review the differences. You can configure multiple channels for redundancy and customize which channels are used for different monitoring tasks.
