Frequently asked questions

You pay per URL monitored — not per domain. One domain with twelve pages counts as twelve URLs. Your monthly bill is your URL count times your plan’s per-URL rate; for example, 11 URLs costs less than 12. See the Pricing page and interactive calculator for tiers.

You can try Freemium first, or go straight to a paid plan. On Pricing, click a plan button (for example Get started) and choose how many URLs you need. If you are not signed in yet, you register and confirm your email first — we remember that URL count. If you are already signed in, you go to Account → Billing. There, adjust the URL count if you want, then click Subscribe to open checkout. Your plan and price follow the URL count you pay for; monitoring on that plan starts when payment succeeds.

When you register we email a one-time link so you can confirm your email. You must finish that step before you can use the app — add URLs, review changes, or open checkout. This keeps accounts tied to real addresses and reduces abuse. If the message does not arrive, check spam or use Resend button on the confirmation page after you log in.

This applies only while you are on Freemium (not if you already have a paid plan). Freemium lasts about 30 days from registration. If you have not subscribed by then, scheduled checks stop and we permanently delete your monitoring data (URLs, snapshots, and diffs). Your login account stays until you delete it yourself. To keep your pages and history, subscribe on Account → Billing before Freemium ends. If you subscribe after that, you can monitor again on a paid plan, but deleted Freemium data is not restored. See Terms §5a.

Go to Managing → Manage account → Billing. After you have a paid plan, click Manage billing. That opens the Lemon Squeezy customer portal. Open the ⋯ menu on the subscription and choose cancel. Cancel means “do not renew again.” Monitoring keeps running until the end of the period you already paid for. To remove your login and all data immediately instead, use Managing → Manage account → Delete account.

Go to Managing → Manage account → Billing. After you have a paid plan, click Manage billing to open the Lemon Squeezy customer portal. To update your card, click the pencil icon next to the card on a subscription. To download an invoice, scroll past the Subscriptions list to Billing history, open a past payment, and generate or download the PDF. If Billing history is empty, no charge has been invoiced yet (common in test mode or before the first paid renewal).

Go to Managing → Manage account → Billing, then use Add URLs or Reduce URLs. That changes how many pages you pay to monitor. It does not cancel your subscription.

This is when a paid subscription has ended (for example you cancelled and the paid-through date passed, or renewal failed). Scheduled checks pause. We keep your monitoring data (URLs, snapshots, diffs) for about 30 days so you can export what you need or resubscribe on Account → Billing. If you resubscribe within that window, monitoring can resume with that data. If you do not, we permanently delete the monitoring data. Your login account stays until you delete it yourself (Account → Delete account). See Terms §5b.

Public pages you are allowed to monitor — for example pricing pages, product terms, policies, and help articles. We run daily checks and, when content changes, show comparisons as side-by-side view, text-only, text in context, image compare etc.

On Scale and higher plans, Proxy is an optional add-on. When a site blocks a normal fetch, Proxy may retry through a residential proxy. You turn it on per URL, and only if you have Proxy slots left. Success is not guaranteed on every site, but you are billed only for successful Proxy attempts.

First buy Proxy slots (how many URLs can use Proxy at once). You pay only when Proxy succeeds — up to $1.50 per URL per month (pro-rated). Failed attempts are free while Proxy is on. If nothing succeeds for about 120 days, we turn Proxy off for that URL so the slot frees up. You are not charged at checkout for usage; usage bills on renewal in $0.50 increments. Any unused amount under $0.50 carries to your next billing period (shown on Account → Billing).

Not always. Strong bot protection, login-only pages, and some PDFs can still fail. Failed attempts are free; you pay only when Proxy succeeds.

Slots are how many URLs may have Proxy turned on at the same time — not a fixed monthly fee by themselves. Buy any whole number from 5 to 500 (for example 29 blocked URLs → buy 29 slots).

URL monitoring and Proxy are billed as two separate subscriptions (our payment provider allows one product line per subscription). Cancelling monitoring does not cancel Proxy, and cancelling Proxy does not cancel monitoring — cancel each in Manage billing if you want both stopped.

No. You may only use Proxy on pages you are allowed to monitor. That duty is yours under Terms §4.

Monitoring shows the fetch status for each URL (for example blocked or challenge). Challenge pages may be stored so you can see the bot-check screen. On Scale and higher, you can buy Proxy slots on Account → Billing and turn Proxy on per URL in Monitoring when you have capacity left.

Paid and Freemium plans run automatic daily checks. Each run fetches your active URLs and saves a new version and diff only when the page content changed. You review those changes in Main view.

When a page changes, you get a side-by-side highlighted comparison. You can view the full page, a text-only summary, or text in context. Toolbar controls move between highlights. Opening a diff marks it reviewed in Main view.

We track repeated not-found responses. Pages that stay broken show on the Broken links screen so you can remove them yourself. We do not auto-delete URLs.

Before each fetch we check the site’s robots.txt. If a URL is disallowed, we block it unless you explicitly authorize an override after acknowledging the Terms. Those blocked pages appear on the Robots.txt screen.

Yes, where supported. We download the PDF, convert it to HTML for comparison, and run the same daily check and review flow as normal web pages.

Freemium keeps up to three snapshots per page. Paid plans keep more — see Pricing for each tier’s limit.

Yes. Log in, open Settings → Email alerts, and turn change emails on or off. You can set an optional minimum change size. Digests go out when scheduled checks find changes.
