FoxPlug Help / Your brief

Competitor watch

Add a competitor's public pricing or what's-new page. When you press Check, FoxPlug reads it and tells you in words what changed since the time before. Each line shows the page it came from and the day it was read.

Where to find it: In FoxPlug, open Today and find the card called Competitors. Open it in FoxPlug

Steps

1. In FoxPlug, open Today and scroll to the card Competitors.
2. Type the competitor's name in Competitor name, and a public page of theirs in Pricing or what's-new page address. Press Watch.
3. Repeat for up to 5 competitors. Remove one any time by pressing its name with the cross.
4. Press Check competitors. FoxPlug reads the watched pages now.
5. Read the lines under the card. A page that changed shows what changed. A page not yet compared says the first read is saved. A page that could not be read says to check it yourself, with a link.
6. Press Check competitors again when you want a new comparison. Changes show from your second check onward.

Good to know

• Your first check for a project is free. Later checks are on paid plans; see https://foxplug.com/pricing.
• Only public https pages are accepted. Addresses with a login, a local address or a plain number address are refused.
• FoxPlug looks at the site's rules for robots first. If a page is closed to bots, it is not read and the card says so.
• A change shows on the card for up to 30 days after it was read.
• If a page changed but the change cannot be put into words, the card says so rather than guessing.
• Only the project owner can add, remove or check.

What it does not do

• It does not check on a timer or when you open the page. It reads pages only when you press Check competitors.
• It does not read private pages, sign in anywhere or contact your competitors.
• It does not guess a change it cannot see.
