changedetection.io is an open-source tool specifically designed to monitor webpage changes. To put it simply, it is a "webpage monitoring plugin for the entire internet". Whether you want to track price drops, inventory restocks, ticket releases, website content updates, or modifications or deletions of specific posts, as long as the target webpage changes, it can send notifications promptly.

Unlike ordinary webpage monitoring tools, changedetection.io does not just tell you that "the webpage has changed"; it can also integrate with GPT-4o-mini, Ollama local large models, and other AI services to automatically analyze the differences before and after the page changes, summarizing them into more understandable results like "the price has dropped by 50 yuan" or "a new feature has been added". You can also write natural language rules to let the AI help you filter out irrelevant changes such as ads, date refreshes, and recommended content, reducing unnecessary alerts.

Software Features



- Web Content Change Monitoring: Continuously checks specified webpages, triggering alerts once text, prices, inventory, or page structure changes.
- Visual Area Selection: Select the areas of the page you want to monitor with your mouse, focusing only on product prices, inventory status, or main content while automatically avoiding ads, footers, and other distracting information.
- AI Intelligent Summary: After connecting to cloud models or Ollama local models, it can automatically summarize what changes have occurred on the webpage instead of just displaying the raw differences.
- Natural Language Filtering Rules: You can describe the content you care about in natural language, such as "only notify when the price is below 500 yuan" or "ignore changes in date and views".
- Multiple Notification Channels: Supports receiving change notifications via email, Telegram, Discord, DingTalk, and other compatible notification services.
- Browser Automation: Supports simulating clicks, logins, accepting cookies, filling out content, and page redirection, suitable for monitoring data that requires interaction to display.
- Price and Inventory Monitoring: Can be used to track product price drops, out-of-stock restocks, ticket releases, and limited item statuses.
- Change Records and Comparisons: Keeps historical snapshots of webpages and the differences, making it easy to see what modifications occurred at different times.
- Local Private Deployment: Supports deployment to your own computer, NAS, or server via Docker, allowing you to control monitoring data and configurations.
- Open Source License: The project uses the Apache-2.0 open source license.
