Where ChangeTower is stronger
- A free plan for up to 3 pages checked once a day, with no card.
- More colleagues on each plan, and more pages for the money on Business.
- A connection for AI assistants (MCP) on its Business plan.
- Options to click or dismiss things on a page before it's checked.
Where ChangeGist is different
- Faster checks: every 15 minutes on Pro and every 5 on Business, against hourly on ChangeTower's paid plans.
- Every alert opens with a short “What happened” line, like “Price went up from £24 to £28”, then the exact before-and-after wording.
- Slack, Discord and Microsoft Teams alerts from Pro, not just the top plan.
- Price checks that tell you when a competitor undercuts you, and when you're the cheapest again.
- A clear privacy promise: we never sell or share your data or use it to train AI.
Who each one suits
If you want to watch a handful of pages for free, or need lots of colleagues on one account, ChangeTower is a good fit. If timing matters, or you'd rather read a one-line summary than compare two versions of a page yourself, ChangeGist is built for that.
Try it side by side
The best test is to watch the same few pages in both for a week and see which alerts you actually read. ChangeGist is free for 3 days, no card needed.
