What Journalism teams monitor with SiteGauge
Every scenario below works on the Free plan. Paid plans unlock faster checks, screenshots, and team collaboration.
Government portal monitoring
Track government and parliamentary websites for policy updates, new publications, statistical releases, and regulatory changes that make news.
Company IR & newsroom tracking
Monitor corporate investor relations pages and press release sections for announcements, leadership changes, and financial disclosures.
NGO & campaign site alerts
Watch NGO websites, campaign pages, and advocacy organisations for new reports, statements, and data releases relevant to your beat.
Source page change detection
Track specific pages maintained by key sources - academic institutions, think tanks, regulatory bodies - for updates that warrant follow-up.
It does not just flag the change. It explains it.
When a meaningful change is detected on a page you watch, SiteGauge sends the before/after diff to Claude and gets back a plain-English summary, the likely significance, and an importance score, so a junior can triage and a journalism lead can act.
- Plain-English summary of exactly what changed
- Why it matters for your team, not just that it moved
- An importance score so you triage the loud signals first
- Included on every plan, even the free one
Government data updated
ONS has published Q2 2025 GDP data showing 0.2% growth, significantly below Q1's already-revised 0.4%, and quietly revised Q1 down from 0.7%, a double revision that paints a weaker economic picture than previously reported.

We watch continuously
A cheap hash check runs first; a full render, screenshot and AI analysis only fire when a real, scored change is confirmed. Checks every 15 minutes on Pro, daily on Free.
You get the why, not just the what
An alert lands in email, Slack, Teams or a Google Sheet, with an AI summary, an importance score and a before/after diff you can act on.
Recommended monitoring workflows
SiteGauge has built-in workflows tuned for different jobs. Here is how Journalism teams typically combine them.

Stop finding out when it is already too late
Checking by hand misses the change that mattered. SiteGauge tells you the moment it ships.
The old way
Why journalism teams miss critical changes
The best stories live in the gaps between press releases. A government portal quietly updates a policy page. A company's investor relations section adds a new filing. An NGO updates a campaign page with new data. These changes rarely come with announcements - and the journalists who notice first get the story.
- ✕ Manual spot-checks that miss the update that mattered
- ✕ Changes surface days late, after the opportunity has moved
- ✕ No idea whether a change actually matters
