Altosight vs SpotRival

Altosight monitors competitor and reseller prices, supports retailer repricing, and helps brands track MAP or RRP policies. Coverage includes Amazon, eBay, Walmart, Google Shopping, direct retailer sites, and websites across countries and currencies. Product matching combines AI with human verification; the maker claims 99.9% accuracy. Repricer Pro offers preset strategies and custom rules with minimum and maximum price guardrails. MAP records include dates, times, sellers, and violation history for each SKU. Catalogs can be uploaded through CSV, Excel, or an XML feed URL. WooCommerce has native automatic repricing; Shopify, BigCommerce, Magento, and custom carts can use the REST API and CSV or Excel exports. Shopify-native sync is described as in development. The maker says REST API access is included on every plan. There is no free plan; a 14-day trial covers up to 50 products, 3 websites, and 1 marketplace without a credit card. Plans set URL allowances, and default checks run once daily per URL.

SpotRival watches competitors’ publicly visible product pages for price and stock changes. It sends alerts by email and browser notification when a price changes or a product sells out or restocks; price alerts include the percentage change. Price history shows how a monitored item’s price has moved. Users can start monitoring from a product page with “Watch this page,” or request a check with “Check now.” Shopify and Amazon work out of the box, and the service supports many standard storefronts, including BigCommerce, WooCommerce, and Squarespace. It is available as a Chrome extension and on the web, with sign-in through an email link. SpotRival says it does not log in to sites on the user’s behalf or access private data. The Free plan costs $0 per month and allows three monitors with daily checks. Starter costs $9/mo for 25 monitors and checks every six hours. Pro costs $29/mo for 150 monitors, hourly checks, and CSV export for price history. All three plans include email and browser alerts.
