CHANGE DETECTION AND ALERT

Watch a page
change.

PageSignal watches web pages for changes and alerts you the moment something updates — by desktop notification, email, Telegram message, or webhook. Core monitoring runs on your computer, so PageSignal does not store your monitored URLs, snapshots, or alert history in a hosted cloud account.

Point-and-Click

Select any element on a page to monitor just that — a price, button, paragraph, anything.

Strips ads, timestamps, and carousels. Only real changes reach you.

Real Browser Captures

Checks pages in a real browser so JavaScript, sessions, and dynamic content render correctly.

Conditional Logic Gates

Set rules like "notify me only if price drops below $50" or "alert when 'Sold Out' disappears."

Login-Protected Sites

Reuses your active browser session to monitor pages behind authentication.

Anti-Bot Mode

Human-like rendering with jitter bypasses Cloudflare and bot detection.

FAQ

Common
questions.

What does PageSignal do?

PageSignal is a desktop app that watches web pages and tells you the moment something changes — by desktop notification, email, Telegram, or webhook. You paste a URL, choose what to watch for, and set a schedule. The app runs on your computer; there is no PageSignal cloud account.

How is it different from cloud monitoring services?

PageSignal runs locally. Your monitor library, snapshots, and change history live in a local SQLite database — PageSignal does not upload them. There is no per-monitor billing tier, no account requirement, and no central database that exposes who you watch.

How many detection modes are there?

Six. Text changes, layout/DOM structure, visual screenshot diffs, price/number tracking with thresholds, SEO signal changes (across 9 groups and 4 severity levels), and AI-evaluated changes with natural-language summaries. Modes can run alone or be combined with AND/OR gating on a single monitor.

Can I monitor pages behind a login?

Yes. A built-in sign-in window lets you authenticate once with your normal credentials — SSO, OAuth, and multi-step flows all work because PageSignal uses a real browser engine. The browser session is saved and reused on every check.

Does it work on sites with bot protection?

PageSignal uses a real browser engine — Chromium on Windows, WebKit on macOS — not a headless simulation. JavaScript executes completely, the TLS / JA3 fingerprint matches a regular browser, and Cloudflare challenge pages are detected explicitly rather than silently treated as the real page.

How does the AI work and what data leaves my machine?

AI features are optional. You bring your own API key — OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini — or run a local Ollama model. Only the page-change content you route through AI is sent to the provider you choose. URL redaction strips sensitive paths from prompts before they leave the machine, and every outbound AI call is logged locally for audit.

How do I get notified?

Four channels — desktop notifications, email (Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, or any custom SMTP), Telegram (with inbound bot commands), and webhooks (POST to Telegram, Zapier, or any HTTP endpoint). Three delivery modes — immediate, grouped (5m / 15m / 30m / 1h), or digest (daily / 3-day / 5-day / weekly).

Is there a CLI or API for developers?

Yes. `pagesignal-cli` is a full terminal interface with table or JSON output, plus a built-in MCP server (`pagesignal serve`) exposing 30+ tools and 10 resource templates to any MCP-compatible AI client — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenCode.
