Monitor a Competitor Pricing Page
For small teams gathering competitor intelligence, this is one way to follow changes at the source. A SaaS competitor's pricing page is one of the few places where strategy becomes visible: a new tier, a higher entry price, a plan quietly retired. Those edits rarely come with an announcement. RivalPeek.io has a rule built for pricing pages: it reads the plans and their prices, and alerts you when a price changes or a plan is added or removed.
Rules you can type
- “Tell me if they change any plan price or add or remove a plan.”
- “Tell me when the Team plan price changes.”
- “Alert me if they launch a new plan.”
The review lists the plans and prices it found today, for example “Starter $8 · Team $12 · Business $14”, so you can see straight away whether it read the page correctly.
How it works
- Paste the competitor's pricing URL and describe the change.
- Check the plans found. If names are unclear or a price is missing, the review says so before you approve.
- Approve the watch. Later checks compare plan by plan, ignoring card order and copy edits.
- The alert lists each change, for example “Team: $12 → $15” or “Enterprise: removed”, with a link to the page.
What the pricing rule does not track
Be clear about this before you rely on it. The pricing rule follows prices and the list of plans only. It does not report:
- Changes to usage limits, seats, credits or quotas on a plan.
- Changes to what a $0 tier includes.
- Feature-list edits, new add-ons or footnotes.
- Prices that appear only after choosing a country, a seat count in a calculator, or signing in.
For a specific feature table or footnote, a separate text watch on that section may help; whether that section is readable shows up in the review. Pages that build prices entirely in the browser get a browser fallback where configured, but not every pricing page can be read.
Several competitors at once
If you follow a whole market, add each competitor by its homepage: RivalPeek.io looks for its pricing, product, updates and careers pages and suggests a rule for each, which you review like any other watch. A weekly email digest then groups what changed across those sites. Bulk import also accepts a list of pricing URLs.
Which plan fits
One pricing page per competitor is the usual start. Starter covers 20 pages checked every hour with email alerts, which suits a short list of pages. Pro covers 150 pages checked every 15 min and adds Slack and webhook alerts. Business covers 500 pages checked every 15 min for larger watchlists. Pricing pages change far less often than product prices, so an hourly check is usually enough; faster checks matter more if you also watch launch or promotion pages.

Choose your monitoring capacity
Choose a plan for the pages you need to follow. Starter costs USD $19/month for 20 pages, with ordinary checks every hour. Annual billing is USD $190/year. Pro costs USD $39/month for 150 pages, with ordinary checks every 15 min. Annual billing is USD $390/year. Business costs USD $99/month for 500 pages, with ordinary checks every 15 min. Annual billing is USD $990/year. These are scheduled checks, not a live stream; availability and the check queue can affect when a result arrives.
Pages requiring protected checking use a separate allowance and a slower schedule. Access is not guaranteed, and some sites block automated visits. Start with a representative public URL and review the result before expanding your watchlist.
Frequently asked questions
Will I be alerted when they change the features on a plan?
Not with the pricing rule: it compares plan names and prices and ignores marketing copy. If a specific feature list matters, add a separate text watch on that readable section and check the preview.
Does it track usage limits or a $0 tier's allowances?
No. Changes to seats, credits, page counts or other limits are not part of the pricing rule. It reports price changes, and plans that appear or disappear.
What about monthly and yearly prices on a toggle?
Check the preview. Where both prices are readable, each billing option is compared on its own. If only one is shown on the page, only that one is watched.
What happens if the page cannot be read one day?
That check is recorded as a problem and the last good list of plans is kept, so a failed read never looks like a price change. If the page keeps failing, you get an email that the watch stopped working.
