PageCrawl is a cloud-based website change monitoring service. You give it a web page, a document or a feed, and it checks that source on a schedule, compares the result with the previous version and alerts you when something changes. It runs in the browser, so there is nothing to install, and iOS and Android apps and a browser extension are available for adding and reviewing pages.
The company positions the product around one problem: websites change without notice, and checking pages by hand does not scale. Prices move, terms are rewritten and regulators update guidance, usually without an announcement. PageCrawl also says simple page watchers alert on every cookie banner or timestamp, so it adds AI to explain each real change in plain language.
PageCrawl launched in June 2018 and is bootstrapped, led by founder Laurynas Sakalauskas in Lithuania. It is not an uptime monitor. It answers what changed on a page, not whether a site is online.
Checks run in a fully JavaScript-enabled browser, so pages that build their content dynamically can still be captured. Each check is compared with the last one, and a detected change triggers a notification through the channel you chose. Monitors can use CSS and XPath selectors to focus on one part of a page, and browser actions can click, type and scroll before a capture.
AI sits on top of that detection. It writes a 1-3 sentence summary of each change and scores it from 0 to 100 by importance. You set a threshold, and changes below it stay out of your inbox. If you dismiss a change, the AI adapts and filters similar low-value changes on your monitored pages.
Protected sites are handled with stealth browsing and residential proxies on the Enterprise and Ultimate plans. A paid Web Unblocker option exists for the hardest sites, and the team setting to respect robots.txt and bot protection is off by default.
Beyond text, PageCrawl tracks 30+ element types, including prices, availability, documents, feeds, DNS and SEO data. PDF, Word, Excel and CSV files are read and compared by content, and scanned files without readable text can use File Checksum. Automatic page discovery scans sites and starts monitoring new pages that match your rules.
Scheduled reports turn raw alerts into digests. Monitors can be grouped by tag, folder or domain, written up in one of 8 AI styles and sent daily, weekly or monthly. Recipients do not need an account, and digests can be exported as PDF or Excel. High-priority changes can still escalate immediately to Slack, Teams, email, Discord, Telegram or webhooks.
For evidence and development work, PageCrawl keeps history and screenshots, offers WACZ web archiving on Ultimate, and provides a REST API, webhooks and an MCP server for assistants such as Claude and ChatGPT.

Yes. The Free Forever plan allows up to 6 pages, 220 checks per month and checks as often as every 60 minutes, with 90 days of history and 15 AI summaries per month. A free trial for teams is mentioned for the Enterprise plan.
Frequency depends on the plan: every 60 minutes on Free, 15 minutes on Standard, 5 minutes on Enterprise and 2 minutes on Ultimate. The site says 1-minute checks are available on a custom plan.
It integrates with Slack, Microsoft Teams, Discord, Telegram, Google Sheets, Dropbox, Zapier, n8n, Home Assistant, Make.com and RSS. It also offers a REST API, webhooks and an MCP server for AI assistants.
Yes to both, with limits. PDF, Word, Excel and CSV contents are compared on every plan. Enterprise and Ultimate include residential proxies for most bot-blocking sites, and a paid Web Unblocker at $10/GB covers harder cases.
No. Uptime tools tell you whether a site is up, while PageCrawl tells you what changed on a page.
Customer data is stored in EU data centres in Amsterdam, Netherlands. The company says it does not sell user data or use customer data to train AI.
