About This Service

Automated Price & Competitor Monitoring (UAE)

A system that watches your competitors so you don't have to. I set up scheduled tracking of prices, stock status and listings across Amazon.ae, Noon, Carrefour UAE, Sharaf DG and property or classifieds portals like Property Finder, Bayut and Dubizzle. Every run captures the latest data and the system alerts you the moment a competitor drops a price, goes out of stock, or launches a new SKU — so a Dubai retailer or free-zone SME can react in hours, not weeks.

Output goes wherever your team already works: a live dashboard, a Google Sheet, a CSV export, or a Slack/email alert on every meaningful change. I build in responsible anti-block handling — rotating requests, sensible rate limits and retries — so the monitor keeps running reliably instead of breaking after a day. I track only publicly visible data and respect each site's terms; I don't access logged-in, paywalled or personal data.

This is an ongoing monitoring system with alerts. It differs from my Web Scraping & Data Extraction gig, which delivers a one-off dataset and stops — choose this when you need continuous, scheduled tracking that keeps watching and pings you on change.

What's included

  • Scheduled scrapes — Runs hourly, daily or on your chosen cadence — fully automated
  • Change alerts — Slack or email pings the moment a price, stock or listing changes
  • Dashboard / Sheets output — Live dashboard, Google Sheet or CSV — wherever your team works
  • Anti-block handling — Rotation, rate limits and retries so it keeps running reliably
  • Multi-source — Amazon.ae, Noon, Carrefour, Sharaf DG, Property Finder, Bayut and more
  • History tracking — Price/stock history so you can spot trends, not just the latest value

How it works

  1. 1
    Pick targets + fields

    We agree the competitors, marketplaces and exact fields (price, stock, rating, SKU) to track.

  2. 2
    Build scheduled scraper

    I build the monitor with anti-block handling and set it to run on your chosen schedule.

  3. 3
    Dashboard + alerts

    I wire the output into a dashboard or Sheet and set up change alerts to Slack or email.
