Can my AI change the website content itself?

No. The agent can only monitor and read changes. It has no ability to write to or modify external websites.

Does the AI decide when to run the monitors?

The agent uses the schedules you define through the tools. It follows the instructions provided during the setup process.

Can the agent delete a monitor automatically?

No. The agent can list and manage monitors, but it cannot delete them without your explicit instruction.

How often does the agent check for updates?

The frequency is determined by the monitor configuration you create. The agent simply executes the schedule you've set.

What happens if a website blocks the scraper?

The agent will report that the monitor is failing or that it cannot retrieve the robot details. You will need to handle the site's access issues manually.

Short answer

How can I use my AI to track website updates?

You tell your agent which sites to watch, and it uses Browse AI to set up and run monitoring schedules. Your agent then alerts you whenever it detects a change. You'll see how the automation works below.

The monitoring outcomes.

Where your data lands.

Once the connection is live, your agent handles the heavy lifting of site surveillance.

AUTOMATION

Active monitoring

The agent sets up recurring checks on specific URLs. You get notified only when something actually changes.

OVERSIGHT

Monitor management

Your agent keeps a list of everything it is currently watching. You can ask it to stop or change any schedule.

DETAILS

Robot inspection

The agent looks up the specific settings of your web scrapers. This helps it understand exactly what data is being tracked.

HUMAN

Manual intervention

If a site changes its layout and breaks a scraper, the agent tells you. You'll need to step in to fix the robot's logic.
