Add a website monitor
Create one monitor for each page and business purpose.
- Open AI Website Watchdog.
- Choose Add website.
- Enter a descriptive monitor name and complete public URL.
- Choose the check frequency and leave the monitor active.
- Save to fetch the first snapshot.
Understand the baseline
The first successful fetch becomes the reference for later comparisons.
- Open the new monitor.
- Confirm the status and Last checked time.
- Verify that the page is publicly reachable without interactive login.
- Wait for a later scheduled check or use Check now when needed.
Reduce noisy changes
Exclude page regions that change frequently without business meaning.
- Identify the dynamic element on the monitored page.
- Find a stable CSS selector for that region.
- Add the selector to Ignored selectors.
- Save settings and run a new check to validate the result.
Avoid broad selectors that remove the actual content you need to monitor.
Run an immediate check
Use an on-demand check when timing matters.
- Open the relevant monitor.
- Choose Check now.
- Wait for the success or error message.
- Review the updated status and change history.
Review detected changes
A change record is evidence to inspect, not an automatic business conclusion.
- Open Change history.
- Review timestamp, summary, and available difference details.
- Open the public page to confirm the current state.
- Record or escalate the change only after human verification.
Troubleshoot a failed check
Access controls and page rendering can prevent reliable monitoring.
- Confirm the URL opens publicly in a browser.
- Check whether the site blocks automated requests.
- Remove invalid ignored selectors.
- Try Check now again and contact support with the URL and error if the failure continues.
Troubleshooting notes
Common questions that can save a support request.
Why does the monitor show no change?
The page may not have changed, the changed area may be ignored, or the relevant content may be rendered in a way the monitor cannot compare.
Why am I seeing repeated noise?
Add precise ignored selectors for dynamic clocks, counters, banners, or other irrelevant regions.
