E-commerce Price Monitoring

Track competitor prices and product availability across hundreds of e-commerce sites.

The Problem

E-commerce teams need to monitor competitor pricing across hundreds of product pages daily. Manual checks do not scale, and traditional scrapers break when sites update their layouts.

The Solution

CrawlForge batch_scrape processes hundreds of URLs in parallel, while track_changes detects price and availability shifts automatically. Get alerts when competitors change pricing.

Code Example

// Monitor competitor prices across product pages
const products = await mcp.batch_scrape({
  urls: [
    "https://competitor-a.com/product/widget-pro",
    "https://competitor-b.com/products/widget-pro",
    "https://competitor-c.com/shop/widget-pro",
  ],
  selectors: {
    price: ".product-price",
    availability: ".stock-status",
    title: "h1.product-title",
  },
});

// Track changes since last check
const changes = await mcp.track_changes({
  url: "https://competitor-a.com/product/widget-pro",
  selectors: [".product-price", ".stock-status"],
});

console.log(changes.diff);
