The Smart Monitor allows you to describe what you care about in plain language, and ChangeTower’s AI change-detection solution evaluates page changes against that criteria. You’ll only be notified when a change matches the intent you’ve defined.
Step 1: Start creating a Smart Monitor
In the left navigation menu, click on New Monitor, then select Smart Monitor.
Step 2: Enter the URL
Enter the URL you want to monitor and continue to the monitor configuration step.
Step 3: Define notification criteria
In the 'Notify me when' section, describe what changes you want to be alerted about using natural language. For example:
Notify me if the footer on this page is updated or removed.
Notify me when a new feature is added to the changelog
Notify me when a new data subprocessor is added
Step 4: Configure monitoring options
Optionally, you can:
Use selective monitoring to focus on specific parts of the page
Add advanced configurations such as manual user actions
Step 5: Customize monitor details
Proceed to the Details section to customize:
Monitor name
Tags
Email alerts
Monitoring frequency
Save options
Step 6: Create the monitor
Click Create to finish setup. The Smart Monitor will be created and begin tracking changes based on your criteria.
Once changes are detected, they will appear on your Notifications page. In the Notification's Overview, you can review the Justification section to see what change was detected and why the AI determined it matched your criteria.
