What the dashboard shows
The four numbers across the top, the feed of recent changes, and the list of watched pages with when each was last checked.
Updated November 9, 2026
Watch how, in a short video
The dashboard is the one screen to look at in the morning. Four numbers, then everything that changed, then the state of every page being watched.
If it's quiet, that's the answer. Nothing in the feed means none of your competitors moved.
Step by step
Read the four numbers
Competitors, Pages watched, Changes this week and Need attention, across the top.
Check Need attention first
Red with a count means at least one page is failing its checks. Green and showing OK means everything is checking fine.
Work down Recent changes
Every change across every competitor, newest first. A blue dot means you haven't opened it.
Open anything worth reading
Clicking a change expands it to show the page's address and the before-and-after. See reading a detected change.
Glance at Watched pages
Underneath, every page with its competitor, its type, and when it was last checked. This is where a quietly broken page shows up.
What the numbers mean
- Competitors: how many you're watching, out of your plan's allowance.
- Pages watched: the total across all of them.
- Changes this week: changes detected in the last seven days. Counted properly in the database, so it stays right even when the feed below it is longer than it shows.
- Need attention: pages that have failed their last few checks. See when a page stops checking.
What the feed leaves out
Two things, both on purpose.
- Changes reconstructed from the Internet Archive. Months of old history would bury today's news, so they live on each competitor's History card instead. See earlier versions of a page.
- Anything that wasn't a real change. Pages are stripped of navigation, banners, footers and scripts before being compared, so a page whose visible text is the same as last time records nothing at all.
The feed shows the most recent changes rather than everything ever found. For one competitor's full picture, open them and read Activity, which covers the last 90 days.
On a new account
With nothing added yet, the dashboard offers Find my competitors and Add a competitor and nothing else. The numbers appear once you're watching something.
With pages added but no changes yet, the feed says everything is being watched and will show up the moment something moves. That's expected for the first day: a page has to be checked twice before there's anything to compare.
Questions
Why is Changes this week zero when I can see changes below?
Because those are older than seven days. The feed goes back further than the week the tile counts.
Can I filter the feed by competitor?
Not on the dashboard. Open the competitor instead: their page has Activity for the last 90 days, plus their pricing, hiring and history in one place.
Does opening a change do anything other than mark it read?
No. The feed is ordered by date rather than by read state, so nothing moves or disappears when you open it.
