The three things it does
- Captures snapshots. On your schedule, it takes a full-page image (and the underlying page content) so you have a visual record of what the page looked like that day.
- Detects changes. It compares each new snapshot to the previous one and figures out what actually changed - the picture, the wording, the buttons, the underlying structure.
- Alerts you. When a change matters, it sends you an alert by email or Slack, scored by how significant it is, so you can act.
