Notis

Keep competitor site content in view with scheduled crawls

Set a recurring crawl for the competitor pages you care about and let Notis bring the collected content into a reviewable report.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Start Site Crawl

Starts an asynchronous dataset or site crawl for later status checks and result retrieval.

Why this helps

Competitor pages change while you are busy running campaigns, and revisiting each site can slip off the list.

  • Start multi-page crawls on a recurring schedule.
  • Review collected page content in one report.
  • Reduce the effort of revisiting competitor sites manually.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveTrail and Brightdata once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation named Competitor Site Review.
  • 3Tell Notis which competitor URLs to crawl and what content to summarize.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real competitor URL before setting the recurring schedule.

Questions about this workflow

Will it notify me when a competitor changes a page?

The crawl can collect pages on a schedule, but detecting changes requires a supplied prior snapshot or comparison baseline.

How do I get the crawl results?

The asynchronous crawl returns a snapshot identifier. The report should check status and retrieve results when the snapshot is ready.
