Quickstart

Five minutes from sign-up to your first AI-summarised change alert.

1. Create your account

Sign up at /register. Your account is also the first member of a new organisation — every monitor, channel, and API key you create lives under that organisation. You start as its admin.

2. Add your first monitor

From the dashboard, click New monitor and provide:

  • URL. The page you want to watch (HTTPS recommended).
  • Description (optional). A short note describing what you care about — for example, “competitor pricing page; alert me when plan prices change”. Our LLM uses this to decide what counts as a meaningful change. You can also tick which alert channels this monitor should use; leave them unchecked to fall back to your organisation's default channels.

3. Connect a notification channel

Go to Channels in the top navigation and add at least one:

  • Slack — paste an incoming-webhook URL.
  • Discord — paste a webhook URL.
  • Microsoft Teams — paste an incoming-webhook URL.
  • Email — enter the recipient. You'll confirm the address via a verification email before it can receive alerts.
  • Generic webhook — for your own integration (signed with HMAC).

Click Send test on the channel row to confirm delivery.

4. Wait for the first alert

A new monitor is due immediately, so its first check runs shortly after creation, on the next scheduler pass. After that, checks follow an adaptive cadence based on how often the page actually changes. When the LLM decides a change is meaningful given your description, you'll receive an alert with the summary and before/after screenshots.

5. Optional — generate an API key

If you want to script monitor creation, deletion, or polling for changes, go to Settings → API keys and create one. Then try:

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $PAGEDELTAS_TOKEN" \
  https://api.pagedeltas.com/api/monitors

See the API reference for the full endpoint list.
