## What this solves

Website monitoring used to wait for you to find the cadence selector and switch it on. A company that finished onboarding without doing so had no monitoring at all, and the **What changed** tab stayed empty for reasons that had nothing to do with its competitors.

## What changed

- **Monitoring starts on its own** the moment your competitor list is ready, on a monthly schedule.
- **Monthly is the default** for every new list. Weekly and off remain available.
- **Your choice is kept.** If you had already chosen a cadence — or switched monitoring off — nothing changes for you.
- Monthly checks are spread across the month, so different companies' competitors are read on different days.

## Where to find it

Competitors → **What changed** → the cadence selector at the top of the tab.

## Useful for

Founders and marketers who want a competitor's pricing, positioning or product pages watched without remembering to set it up.
