PageProbe - Automatic Page Monitor Extension

Why PageProbe?

We believe that people want to save both time and money.

We believe there are several things people want to follow on regular basis such as:
- the current price of an expensive item (such as a television) that you would like to purchase so that you can find the lowest price and the best discount to save money
- the current price of a company X stock in the stock market to find out when it is time to buy or sell in order to optimize your profits
- the current price of an item in an online auction in order to bid at the last minute \"just enough\"
- the number of followers you have in your social media accounts
- the number of likes your social media post has received
- the status of your web application or related software builds
- the latest new post on forum Y
- the latest top article with a specific Twitter search

We believe that people are evaluating the things they monitor based on certain conditions and when those conditions are met, they will take action. For example, the price of the television that you want will drop below certain price.

We believe that when this kind of tracking of many things happens manually every day, it is a huge waste of time and you can easily miss good discounts, buying or selling opportunities and as a result can also lose money.

Therefore most of content monitoring should be easily automated so that an application will monitor the things you have defined, evaluates the results based on the conditions you have defined and then notifies you when those conditions are met so that you can take action.


What is PageProbe?

PageProbe WebExtension can monitor any web pages you can access on the Internet or in your company intranet. By simply right-clicking the content you see on a page, you can quickly create a tracker with optional conditions and actions and then view the status of those trackers in a simple monitoring view.

By clicking the extension icon you can see a nice overview of all your trackers and the data retrieved. Trackers can be easily organized into groups.


Feature highlights:
- Unlimited number of trackers that can monitor any accessible page on the Internet or intranet
- Fully local solution - does not require an account
- Trackers can be organized into a tree based hierarchy of groups
- Converters allow you to easily transform strings to numbers and perform simple arithmetic on them
- Advanced conditions for trackers: contains text, doesn't contain text, contains all words, doesn't contain words, contains any words, contains any words that start with, matches regexp, is, is not, begins with text, ends with text, smaller than, smaller than or equal, greater than, greater than or equal, is going up, is going down, has changed
- Boolean logic support (combine multiple conditions)
- Case sensitive and case-insensitive matching
- Advanced actions: show desktop notification, play audio (local or URL), set color/CSS for monitor column/row, HTTP POST, IFTTT, data history logging, event log entry
- Data history logging will allow you to see with a simple chart how the value of some item has changed over time
- Export tracker table as Excel
- cron / crontab style advanced scheduling also supported!
- Live Content Scan Mode which allows monitoring changing page values in real-time!
- Discord support (post tracker results directly to a Discord channel)
- Slack support (post tracker results directly to a Slack channel)
- Telegram support

Chr Pqe (ID: 0000007342fb7bd9) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 11/26/2024 Hello, Some bugs there and here, but the most important that makes this extension not actually as good as some well known competitors is the lack of list synchronization between computers : Chrome Extension Sync (to sync at least the list of urls and their configuration / but of course not the websites contents) Indeed, if I install the extension on many computers, I will inevitably lost the lists, Thank you

Josh Nathan (ID: 000000566c1bf23d) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/11/2023 I love it. I've used several (free) standalone tools to monitor webpage changes, and none of them worked consistently or notifications never came through. PageProbe seems to be working exactly as designed. It's got so many configuration options, you can really fine-tune your trackers and notifications. Thanks again for this awesome extension.
