The problem it solves

You want to know as soon as a prospect adopts new software or drops a competitor's tool, but checking manually every day isn't realistic. By the time you notice a change, the opportunity may have already passed.

Who it fits

Sales teams and technology vendors who need to act quickly on buying signals.

How it works

  1. Target companies are checked on a schedule for technology changes
  2. New or removed tools are compared against the last check
  3. An alert with the company name and change details is created
  4. The alert is sent to email and posted in Slack
What you get

Technology changes you hear about instantly

You find out the moment a target company adopts or drops a technology, so you can reach out to them while it still matters.

What you get

A real-time alert showing which company changed its technology and what changed.

What you need

A BuiltWith API subscription, an email service, and optionally a Slack workspace.

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.
