# AI Chat

> Manage watches and check changes through natural language

The AI Chat at [sitespy.app/chat](https://sitespy.app/chat) is a conversational assistant that can create watches, check changes, adjust their settings, get summaries, and more — all through natural language.

One thing it deliberately cannot do is decide what a watch follows. That anchor is set by pointing at the page in the [picker](/docs/dashboard/element-picker), which opens inside the conversation on the watch card.

## What it can do

**Watch management**

* Create new watches from a URL
* Search and find existing watches
* Adjust ignore patterns, trigger text and the check interval
* Open the picker so you can point at what a watch should follow, without leaving the conversation
* Trigger manual rechecks
* Generate share links

**Change monitoring**

* Show what changed across all watches
* Get the diff for a specific watch
* View snapshot history and timelines
* Get the latest page content

**Account info**

* Check your current plan, usage, and limits
* Generate RSS feed URLs for watches

## Usage limits

## Example prompts

* "Track the price on [https://example.com/product](https://example.com/product) and tell me when it drops"
* "What changed on my watches recently?"
* "Give me an overview of all my watches"
* "Monitor [https://boards.greenhouse.io/anthropic](https://boards.greenhouse.io/anthropic) for new job postings"
* "Show the diff for my Amazon watch"
* "Recheck my watches"

## How watch creation works

When you give the assistant a URL:

1. It searches your existing watches so it doesn't propose a duplicate
2. It checks whether the URL is reachable
3. It shows you a watch card with a button — **the watch is not created until you click it**
4. Once you click it, the picker opens on that card: the page is rendered as it actually looks and you click the part you want watched. Until you do, the watch follows the whole page and will report every timestamp and banner on it

If the initial URL check gets blocked (403), the assistant will still offer to create the watch — Site Spy's backend uses a real browser (Playwright) that often succeeds where simple HTTP checks fail.

## Limitations

* The assistant cannot choose or write a watch's anchor. Selectors it guesses from page text are what made watches noisy, so the anchor comes from the picker only
* Notification setup (email, Telegram, webhooks, push) must be done in the [dashboard settings](https://sitespy.app/dashboard/settings) — the chat cannot configure notifications
* The assistant cannot delete or pause watches
* Response length is capped for readability — for full snapshot content, use the dashboard

## Conversation history

Chats are saved to your account and listed in the sidebar, so you can reopen an earlier conversation or continue it later. Each conversation has its own link. Delete one from the sidebar when you no longer want it stored.
