Website Screenshot – Full Page, Fast, Pay Only on Success

Schedule this to watch a set of pages. Each run compares every page with its previous capture and reports changed and changePercent (pixels) plus textChanged, addedText and removedText (the lines of visible text that appeared or disappeared). A rotating banner moves pixels but no text; a price change moves both. Half a cent per check, no extra charge for the comparison.
