Know the moment a competitor changes its price
MeshArc watches pricing, plan and changelog pages, extracts prices as real numbers, and sends one paragraph when something moves — instead of forty diffs to read through.
01what an alert says
Decisions, not diffs
“Business plan went from $16 to $18 per seat; two enterprise features moved down a tier.”
- Prices as numbers: plans and prices are extracted as typed fields, so a change is a value you can chart rather than a paragraph to reread.
- Only meaningful changes: navigation tweaks and rotating testimonials are filtered out before anyone is notified.
- Launches caught early: new changelog and feature pages appear as added the morning they go up.
- Silence when nothing moved: a run that compared clean sends nothing at all.

Track more than the number
Plan limits, feature tables, discount banners, stock status on product pages — and careers pages, which tend to announce a new product before the marketing site does.
questions
Frequently asked questions
How does competitor price tracking work?
MeshArc crawls the pages you choose on a schedule, extracts the fields you define — plan names, prices, limits — and compares each run with the last. When a value changes you get an alert carrying the old and the new value.
Can MeshArc monitor e-commerce prices?
Yes, including product pages that need a real browser. Heavily protected retail sites may need residential IPs, which are on the Growth plan and above.
Your competitors change prices quietly
Now you will know the morning it happens, with the old number beside the new one.
