About This Workflow
Staying ahead in a dynamic market requires constant awareness of competitor strategies, especially pricing. This n8n workflow provides a comprehensive, automated solution for competitor pricing monitoring. It intelligently fetches a list of competitor URLs and their historical pricing data from a Google Sheet. Leveraging Airtop's AI capabilities, it then visits each URL, extracts detailed pricing plans and features, and performs a sophisticated comparison against previous records. Any substantial shifts in pricing are not only updated in your central Google Sheet with a timestamp but also immediately flagged with a concise summary directly to your Slack channel. This ensures your team is always informed, enabling swift and strategic responses to market changes, saving valuable time on manual research.
