Hello Product hunt community!
I am happy to share with you Monitoro, a SaaS to monitor pages for changes, extract structured data and send it to a webhook of your choice.
I build it initially to scratch my own itch, monitoring e-commerce websites of varying natures to watch price changes for some products I'm interested on.
Shoot me any questions and I'll be happy to answer.
Check it out!
@omneity Monitoro looks great, and not only for eCommerce! Sweet :) How about an interview about it at StartupRadius.com? Send me an email to Paul(at)StartupRadius.com if interested!
Looks great, been looking for something like this since changedetection went offline... thanks for putting this together! A few quick questions - what's the expected price post-beta, are there any plans for intermediate tiers, and on the free plan, the 250 requests are per day/month?
Thank you @neeldhara for your time and your comment!
The price post-beta is not clear yet, as I am still figuring out the various dimensions and the cost structure of the service. For the time being 49$/month allows you to indulge in all the scraping you need! And I will make sure the transition out of the beta is as smooth as possible to existing users.
The 250 requests for the free plan are allotted per month. It's an early guess at what could be a fair plan to explore the product, and it will be subject to adjustments as time goes.

What is the use case you have in mind, if I might ask? Happy to discuss that privately as well.
Really cool idea. I've been interested in web scraping lately and have thought of doing something like this but I always over-engineer. Great work keeping it simple and good luck!
Hi there @stets ! Thank you for your interest.
Monitoro's stack is pretty bare actually, it's based on mostly vanilla Node.js, with the exception of express and sequelize, and managed PostgreSQL to store the data.
The infrastructure itself is a cluster running in a docker swarm hosted in a cloud provider, ready to scale up scraping when there is extra demand :-)
Happy to answer more detailed questions if I did not satisfy your curiosity.

Let's talk about your use case, you can reach me at omar -at- monitoro.xyz
Even if Monitoro doesn't address your needs, I might be able to point you to the right technology to use for your situation.
Hey @clinton_skakun1 , thank you for your interest!
Monitoring APIs is a very interesting idea indeed.
Out of curiosity, would you feel comfortable sharing your clearbit API token with a service like Monitoro, if it allowed you to monitor when data entries change (and trigger a webhook obviously)? Assume you could tune the frequency at which Clearbit credits are consumed.
@lukepeerfly I'm sorry this happened to you.
