Short answer

How can I track website changes using my AI?

Your AI uses Browse AI to check the status of your active web monitors. It identifies if specific page elements or data points have changed. You'll see exactly which monitors are running and what they found.

Monitoring outcomes

Where your updates land.

The AI organizes your monitoring data into these specific views.

STATUS

Monitor health checks

The AI uses list_monitors to show you which web scrapers are active and which have failed. You'll know immediately if a monitor stopped working.

ROBOTS

Scraper inventory

The AI pulls a full list of your robots. This helps you keep track of every automated crawler you have running.

CHANGES

Detected data shifts

Your agent flags when a specific data point or element on a page changes. You get a clear report of what moved or disappeared.

HUMAN

Manual intervention

If a monitor fails due to a site layout change, the AI tells you. You'll need to step in and fix the scraper logic yourself.

The workflow

What your AI does when a change occurs.

The AI acts as your eyes on the web by querying your existing Browse AI setup.

  1. Identify active monitors

    The AI looks through your current list of web monitors to find the ones you want to track.

    list_monitors

  2. Audit your scrapers

    It checks your robot inventory to ensure the right tools are assigned to the right websites.

    list_robots

  3. Detect element shifts

    The AI compares the latest scrape against previous data to find changes in specific elements.

    list_monitors

  4. Report findings

    Your agent summarizes the changes or errors found during the monitor check.

    list_robots

FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI fix a broken monitor automatically?

    No. If a website changes its layout and breaks a monitor, the AI will report the failure, but you must manually update the scraper.

  • 02

    Can the AI start a new monitor for me?

    No. The AI can only list and check the status of monitors you have already created in Browse AI.

  • 03

    How often does the AI check for changes?

    The AI checks for changes only when you ask it to or when you trigger a specific workflow.

  • 04

    Can the AI delete my robots?

    No. The AI can list your robots, but it does not have the capability to delete or modify them.

  • 05

    What data can the AI see?

    The AI can see the status, names, and configurations of your monitors and robots as provided by the Browse AI tools.
