The problem it solves

You keep refreshing a job board or a small store's website hoping to catch a new posting or a price drop before anyone else does. There's no alert system for these sites, so you either waste time checking constantly or miss the update entirely.

Who it fits

Job seekers, recruiters, or shoppers tracking listings on sites that don't offer alerts.

How it works

  1. The system visits a chosen webpage on a set schedule
  2. It pulls out specific details like job titles, prices, or stock status
  3. It checks whether anything new or changed has appeared
  4. You get a Telegram message with the update
What you get

Changes you hear about the moment they post

You get a Telegram message the instant a tracked webpage shows a new job, price, or listing.

What you get

A Telegram alert whenever new or changed information appears on the page you're watching.

What you need

A Telegram account, and optionally an OpenAI API key for summarizing content.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
