Is Versionista still available? What happened and where to go

Is Versionista still available? Yes and no. If you already have an account, it still works: Versionista's site says existing customers need no changes and their accounts remain fully supported. If you are new, you cannot sign up any more. The site now describes Versionista as part of the Fluxguard family, and new accounts are sent to Fluxguard instead.

So the real question for most people is a different one: where should a new user go to get told when a web page changes? This short guide answers that, with a focus on the simple, phone-friendly option.

What happened to Versionista

Versionista has been around since 2007 and is made in Oregon, according to its footer. It became known for saving every version of a web page so you could look back at what it said on a given day.

Today the name sits under Fluxguard. Fluxguard's terms of service say Fluxguard "includes the trade name Versionista" and list versionista.com as one of its services. Fluxguard itself was acquired by LegitScript, which announced the deal in July 2023.

None of that is drama. It just means the Versionista sign-up page is a dead end for newcomers.

What Fluxguard offers instead

Fluxguard is where Versionista points you, so it is worth a quick look:

• Free plan: 3 sites, 3 saved versions per page, 1 user, visual, HTML and text change detection.
• Paid plans: $110, $220 and $550 a month, for 25, 50 and 100 sites.
• Extras on paid tiers: tracking behind logins, AI summaries, and webhooks on the top plan.

It is built for compliance and risk teams. If you are one person watching a few pages, it is more than you need.

A lighter option with real apps

If you just want a ping on your phone when a page changes in a way you care about, AyeWatch is the easier fit. It has its own apps for iOS and Android as well as the web, and your monitors, feed and alerts sync across all three.

Here is how it works in practice:

1. Paste the page link, for example a concert venue's ticket page or a store's restock page.
2. Write what you want to know in plain words: "Tell me when new dates are added" or "Tell me when the blue size 9 is back in stock."
3. AyeWatch checks the page and sends a push alert with a short summary only when the change matches what you wrote.

You never pick an element on the page or learn a selector. And if the site gets a new design, the monitor keeps working because it reads for meaning, not position.

What it costs

• Free Preview: three monitoring runs across up to 3 topics, no card needed. Runs do not renew, so treat it as a trial.
• Pro: $9 a month, with checks as often as hourly.
• Pro+: $19 a month, adds the fastest ASAP checks.
• Max and Ultra: $39 and $99 a month for heavier use.

AyeWatch counts usage in monitoring credits. Most checks use one credit, and the app shows the estimated credits per day before you save a monitor, so you can see what a faster interval will use.

Push notifications and the in-app feed come with every plan. Email, Slack, Discord and webhooks start with Pro.

Which one should you pick?

For most casual users, the first row is the one that matters. If you do need to prove what a page said on a certain date, that is the one case where an archive like Fluxguard or ChangeTower is the better tool.
