Monitor a website for changes.

Pick the part of a page you care about and let Chrome tell you when it changes, or when it can’t check. This is how it works in Stillwater.

Watch a page in four steps

Open the page you care aboutAny public page: a price, a plans table, a tender board, a notice page.
Choose “Watch something on this page”Click the Stillwater icon in the toolbar, then click the part of the page to watch. Widen the selection with one key, or watch the whole page.
Allow that one siteChrome asks you to allow Stillwater for the site you chose to watch, and only that site.
Wait for the alertStillwater checks on a schedule while Chrome is open. When the part you picked changes, you get a Chrome notification and a before-and-after view, with removed text struck through and new text highlighted.

Few false alarmsDates, times and “5 minutes ago” are ignored by default, and a change has to show up on two checks in a row before you are alerted.
It tells you when it can’t checkIf a page errors, is redesigned so your part disappears, or access is lost, the monitor turns red, the toolbar shows “!” and you get one notification. You never have to wonder whether “no news” means “no change”.
