How the Shopify competitor change checker works

Most Shopify stores publish their catalog publicly. We read that catalog and cross-check our monitoring database to surface any changes we have already logged for that store.

  • 01Paste a competitor's Shopify store URL. You can use the bare domain, like competitor-store.com.
  • 02Beaconmon reads the store's public catalog and checks our change database for recent activity.
  • 03If we have history on this store, you see recent price drops, promo launches, and product changes.
  • 04Sign up to start capturing future changes with instant alerts and weekly intelligence digests.

Frequently asked questions

Can I see what changed on a Shopify store?

Yes, if Beaconmon has monitoring history on that store from any prior user. When history exists, you see the last several changes including price drops, sale launches, and new products. For stores we have not monitored yet, you see a current snapshot of their catalog, captured in under 5 seconds from their public product feed.

Is this free?

The one-time check is completely free with no signup and no app install, and you can run it as often as you need. Continuous monitoring, which alerts you within minutes when a price drops or a promo launches, is a paid Beaconmon plan with a free tier that includes 10 monitors at no cost.

What kinds of changes does it detect?

Five change types: price drops, promotional markdowns, new products added, product removals, and content updates on key pages such as the homepage banner. The paid monitoring plan captures all of these as they happen and sends an instant alert, typically within minutes of the change going live on the storefront.

Does it work on non-Shopify stores?

This tool is Shopify-specific because Shopify stores publish a public product catalog at /products.json. Beaconmon monitoring, however, supports WooCommerce and any other website through CSS selector targeting on the specific pages you choose, so you can track competitors across every platform from one dashboard rather than 2 or 3 separate tools.

How is this different from other Shopify spy tools?

Most of the 100-plus Shopify spy tools show static information about a store: its theme, installed apps, or a rough revenue estimate. This tool focuses on what changed over time, which is the intelligence that actually affects your pricing and promotion decisions, because a competitor who cut prices 20% yesterday matters more than their theme.

Your competitors are changing prices right now.

Beaconmon watches your competitors and alerts you the moment prices or promos change. Free forever for 10 monitors, no card required.
