What does Lemwatch monitor?

Lemwatch runs 20+ automated checks per site: uptime, response time, SSL/TLS expiry, domain expiry, DNS changes, sitemap health, broken links, content changes, SEO audits, mobile usability, security headers, and more.

Yes. The free tier monitors up to 5 sites. Pro is $19/month for 50 sites and Agency is $59/month for 100 sites, both with full feature access.

How is Lemwatch different from UptimeRobot or Pingdom?

Lemwatch bundles uptime, change detection, SEO audits, security scans, and a public API in one platform — features competitors charge separately for. It also includes team workspaces, white-labelled status pages, and a webhook system out of the box.

Does Lemwatch send alerts?

Yes. Lemwatch supports email, browser push, webhooks, and per-site notification routing so the right person hears about the right incident.

Is there a public API?

Yes. Pro and Agency plans get a public REST API with webhooks for sites, checks, incidents, and reports.

How does LemWatch monitor competitor pricing?

LemWatch captures screenshots and text of the competitor's pricing page(s) every 6 hours (hourly on Pro, custom on Agency). Every capture is compared pixel-by-pixel and text-by-text against the last one. When anything meaningful changes — a price, a tier name, a feature bullet — you get an alert with a before/after diff and a plain-English summary.

Can I monitor JavaScript-heavy pricing pages?

Yes. LemWatch renders pages in a full headless Chromium (not a static HTTP fetch), so React, Vue and Svelte pricing pages, tabbed layouts, and A/B tests all render exactly as a real user would see them.

Will I get false alerts from cookie banners or animations?

No. Draw an ignore zone around any dynamic element (cookie banner, chat widget, animated hero) and LemWatch excludes those pixels from diff calculations. Watch zones do the opposite — restrict change detection to only the pricing table.

How is this different from a manual weekly price check?

You'll catch changes within hours instead of days, you won't miss quiet promotional launches, and every change is timestamped and archived with a SHA-256 hash chain so you can prove exactly what a competitor's page said on any date.

Is competitor pricing monitoring legal?

Yes. LemWatch fetches the same publicly-accessible page a Chrome browser would fetch. It respects robots.txt directives and doesn't attempt to bypass access controls. You are monitoring public pricing pages, which is standard competitive intelligence practice.

How many competitors can I track?

10 sites free, 50 sites on Pro ($19/mo), 150 on Agency ($59/mo). Each 'site' can include multiple monitored pages (pricing, PDPs, category pages) so 10 sites can easily cover 20+ pricing pages.

Watch zones for pricing tables

Correlated cause detection

See if the price change came with a copy change, a new tier, or a page redesign. LemWatch tells you what shipped, not just that a number moved.

AI change summary

Every alert includes a plain-English summary: 'Competitor's Pro tier dropped from $29 to $19 and gained the priority-support badge previously on Business.'

Screenshot evidence trail

SHA-256-chained evidence bundles for compliance, legal review or presenting to your pricing committee.

Multi-page tracking

Track pricing page, PDPs, feature-comparison pages and category pages simultaneously — one alert per meaningful change.

Quick answer

How do I monitor a competitor's pricing page for changes?

Watch the pricing page with a CSS selector scoped to the price block, so you are alerted on the number changing rather than on every marketing tweak elsewhere on the page.

Scope: CSS selector on the price block, not the whole page
Evidence: Word-level diff plus a screenshot of the change
Cadence: From every few minutes to daily, depending on plan
Alert routes: Email, Slack, Discord, Teams, webhook
