VERSIONISTA
Welcome to Versionista.com
“Versionista provides both an accurate date of the last change and reveals the edits that have been made between versions of the site — highlighting what has been added and removed in side-by-side comparisons.”

“Tools like Versionista are making it easier still to spot alteration over time.”

(See more press at Wired, CNET, ars technica, and Slate.com.)

Versionista monitors Web sites that you specify for edits. Our Web-based service records every change, highlighting added and deleted words and sentences, and sending you an e-mail as soon as we find a meaningful difference.

You can view multiple generations of edit histories for every page on a site. At the same time, filtering eliminates information overload by tracking only content that matters.

Tactical competitive intelligence
Versionista was designed for the rough-and-tumble world of today's Web, where subtle edits can offer actionable tactical advantage.

  • Monitor entire Web sites and receive e-mail alerts when changes that meet your regular expression filters are met.

  • Track and archive any entity's total online presence, including social media, blogs, and other Web sites.

  • Follow the evolution of any site, and know when important changes occur — even to deeply nested pages.

It's wasteful to spend your time trawling through a competitor or customer Web site hunting for changes. As well, for time-sensitive information, you may catch them too late.

Versionista simplifies and automates Web site monitoring:

  • We spider specified sites at configurable frequencies.
  • We track and archive changes that match your content filters.
  • We e-mail you change alerts.
  • We offer a dashboard of sortable lists of monitored pages.
  • We provide "before and after" side-by-side comparisons.
  • We visually highlight deletions and additions.
Content lifecycling and regulatory compliance
Versionista archives and preserves the complete lifecycle of any Web-based content.

In the old print-based world, it was easy to track and preserve the entirety of one's corporate communications. It's entirely different with Web-based media, where multiple editors and automated content generators mean that what's on a Web site today may not be there tomorrow.

At the same time, there's increasing regulatory and internal best practice requirements that all customer-facing content should be comprehensively preserved.

Versionista's ability to snapshot and archive every site change helps meet the needs of regulatory agencies or internal General Counsels. More, since we pinpoint exactly what has changed, we offer unique enhancements to ongoing internationalization efforts.
