Monitor watches your catalogue and the outside world on a schedule. Where Analyse produces a one-time assessment, Monitor produces a continuous stream of recurring runs that feed alerts into Notifications.Documentation Index

Price
Track prices across a configurable cadence. Flag drifts, deltas, and anomalies relative to history or competitor data.What it watches
- Internal prices — your own price attribute on a catalogue.
- Marketplace prices — Amazon, Shopify, and configurable URL templates.
- Competitor prices — when paired with the Competitor surface, side-by-side history per matched SKU.
Configuration
Per Price monitor, you configure:- Catalogue and filter — which records to watch.
- Sources — which marketplaces or URLs to pull.
- Cadence — hourly, daily, or weekly per source.
- Alert rules — threshold-based (e.g. alert when delta > 10%), absolute (e.g. alert when price < cost + margin), or anomaly-based (statistical outliers vs. history).
- Recipients — Notifications, Slack, email.
Outputs
- Price history — full time series per record per source.
- Drift alerts — pushed to Notifications when a rule fires.
- Pricing dashboards — distribution, outliers, gap-to-competitor views.
Competitor
Pull competitor listings for matched SKUs, normalize them, and surface side-by-side comparisons.What it does
- Identifies the competitor listing for each SKU using the similarity graph and configured match rules (GTIN, MPN, name + brand).
- Pulls listing data (title, description, images, price, availability, rating) on a schedule.
- Normalizes competitor fields against your schema so comparisons are apples-to-apples.
- Surfaces side-by-side views: yours vs. each tracked competitor.
Configuration
Per Competitor monitor, you configure:- Catalogue and filter — which of your records to track.
- Competitor sources — domains, marketplace seller IDs, or scrape templates.
- Match strategy — which similarity threshold, which fields drive matching.
- Cadence — daily or weekly per source.
- Alert rules — new listings appearing, listings disappearing, content drift, image changes, rating shifts.
Outputs
- Side-by-side record view — yours vs. competitors with diff highlights.
- Competitor catalogue — a parallel catalogue object holding normalized competitor records.
- Drift alerts — fed into Notifications and/or Slack.
Alerts vs. review items
Monitor alerts are informational: they tell you something happened. They surface in Notifications but don’t block anything — you don’t have to approve them. If a Monitor alert needs to change a record (e.g. update internal pricing in response to a competitor drop), the alert can trigger a downstream operation — typically Bulk Enrichment with a pricing rule — whose outputs go through the normal review gate.Combining Monitor with other modules
A common pattern: Monitor → Analyse → Bulk Enrich → Push & Sync.- Monitor → Competitor detects a competitor description has been updated.
- Analyse flags that your description no longer covers a feature the competitor mentions.
- Bulk Enrichment rewrites the affected records, gated by review.
- Push & Sync publishes the approved updates to your storefront.
