How often does Versionista check monitored web pages?

Short answer: Versionista’s public information does not specify one universal interval for checking monitored web pages. It refers to configurable crawl settings, but the interval available or assigned to a particular page is account-specific. Check your account’s crawl settings or contact Versionista support for the cadence that applies to you.

Do not infer that pages are checked daily from Versionista’s statement that summary emails are sent daily by default. That is the default frequency for a report, not a published page-check interval. Versionista’s email-alert tutorial describes summary-email delivery separately from page monitoring.

What Versionista’s public information says

The official material reviewed for this guide supports these points:

• Versionista refers to crawl settings that users can configure, but the public material does not provide a universal interval table or identify the setting for a specific monitored page. Its guide to detecting newly added pages discusses scans and URL discovery.
• Summary emails are sent daily by default, and users can change the reporting frequency in Account Settings. That setting concerns delivery of email summaries. See the email-alert tutorial.
• Instant alerts are another notification type. An alert or email schedule does not establish how often Versionista checks the page.
• The limits of 50 new URLs per scan and 150 newly found URLs per monitored site describe URL discovery volume. They do not specify scan cadence.

How to find your page’s check frequency

1. Sign in to your Versionista account and open the monitored site or page’s settings.
2. Look for the crawl or scan settings associated with that monitor. Versionista’s public materials confirm that crawl settings exist, but do not document a universal set of available intervals.
3. Check whether the setting is specific to the page, the monitored site, or the account. Do not assume another monitor’s schedule applies to yours.
4. If the setting is not visible or its meaning is unclear, ask Versionista support to confirm the current check interval for that exact monitor.
5. Separately review Account Settings if you want to change when summary emails arrive. That changes reporting frequency, not necessarily page-check frequency.

Page checks, discovery scans, and notifications are different

Term	What it describes	What it does not tell you
Page check or crawl	Versionista checking monitored content, subject to the monitor’s crawl settings.	The public sources reviewed do not establish a universal interval or the setting on your account.
URL discovery	Finding new pages on a monitored site. Versionista gives limits of 50 new URLs per scan and 150 per monitored site in its public guide.	How often a scan runs.
Summary email	A report delivered on a schedule; Versionista says daily is the default and the reporting frequency can be changed in Account Settings.	How often monitored pages are checked.
Instant alert	A notification type for changes.	A guaranteed check interval or delivery time.

Why there is no safe universal number

The official public material reviewed here mentions configurable crawl settings but does not publish a definitive interval table. It also does not reveal the interval attached to an individual customer’s page. The accurate answer is therefore account-specific: inspect the relevant settings or get confirmation from support instead of assuming hourly, daily, or another cadence.

Versionista’s homepage says new monitoring accounts are available through Fluxguard and that existing Versionista customers remain supported. That notice is relevant if you are looking to start a new monitoring account; it does not answer the check frequency for an existing Versionista monitor.

When you need a current screenshot instead of change monitoring

Versionista’s page-monitoring cadence is account-specific in the public information reviewed here. If your immediate task is to capture a page on demand for a report, bug ticket, or agent workflow, ScreenshotNeo is a separate website screenshot API and MCP server. It returns an image or PDF from a GET request; it does not replace scheduled change monitoring.

cURL:

curl -G "https://api.screenshotneo.com/v1/shot" -d access_key=YOUR_API_KEY --data-urlencode url=https://stripe.com -o shot.webp

Python:

import requests

r = requests.get(
    "https://api.screenshotneo.com/v1/shot",
    params={"access_key": "YOUR_API_KEY", "url": "https://stripe.com"},
    timeout=90,
)
open("shot.webp", "wb").write(r.content)

Node.js:

const q = new URLSearchParams({ access_key: 'YOUR_API_KEY', url: 'https://stripe.com' });
const res = await fetch(`https://api.screenshotneo.com/v1/shot?${q}`);

Replace the sample URL with the page you need to capture. See the ScreenshotNeo API documentation for request options and response details.

Or skip the browser setup

One API call can capture a page without setting up a browser. ScreenshotNeo removes cookie banners, newsletter popups, and chat widgets before the shot. Bot checks, blank pages, and failed loads are never billed; the response reports the page verdict and billing status. Its MCP server lets AI agents use screenshot tools. The free plan includes 1,000 screenshots per month with no card; paid plans start at $5 for 3,000 screenshots.

curl -G "https://api.screenshotneo.com/v1/shot" -d access_key=YOUR_API_KEY --data-urlencode url=https://stripe.com -o shot.webp

FAQ

Does Versionista check every page once a day?

The public sources reviewed do not say that. Check the crawl settings for the specific monitor or ask support.

Does a daily summary email mean the page was checked daily?

No. Daily is the default summary-email schedule described by Versionista; it is a reporting setting, not a stated crawl interval.

Do the 50 and 150 URL figures tell me how often Versionista scans?

No. They describe URL discovery limits per scan and per monitored site, not the time between scans.

Where can I get the definitive interval for my monitor?

Review the monitor’s crawl settings in your account or contact Versionista support with the monitored page or site in question.
