Competitor prices are those published on each provider's site for monthly billing, in the provider's own currency, checked on 4 October 2026: Visualping, Distill.io, ChangeTower, changedetection.io. We could not read Wachete's plan prices on that date, so no figure is shown; see their site. "Not checked" means we did not verify that detail on the provider's site; it does not mean the feature is missing. The changedetection.io price is for its hosted plan; the software is open source and can be self-hosted. Prices and features can change.
