Back in stock alert for any online store

You find the perfect thing and it says sold out. So you check back. And check again. Restocks can be quick, and refreshing a page all day is no way to catch one.

With WatchForMe, you type one plain sentence, like "Tell me when this is back in stock," and paste the product link. We turn that into a watch and check the page for you. The moment it's available again, you get an email. There's no app to install and no browser extension. You can run a free check of your link first, so you know it works before you pay.

How to set it up

Paste the link to the sold-out product and write what you want, like "Tell me when this is back in stock."
Run the free check to confirm we can read that page, then pick a plan if it looks good.
Wait for the email: we check on a schedule and write to you the moment the product is back.

Things you can type

“Tell me when this is back in stock: [paste the product link]”

“Email me as soon as this IKEA item is available again: [paste the product link]”

“Watch this page and let me know if it comes back in stock, or if the price drops to $60 or less: [paste the product link]”

“Tell me when the words "Sold out" disappear from this page: [paste the page link]”

Tips and limits

A watch follows the product page as a whole. We can't promise an alert for one specific size or color, so check the page when the email arrives.
Some stores, including some Shopify shops such as Allbirds, limit automated checks at times. That's why the free check comes first. If your link can't be read, you'll know before you pay.
If a store isn't supported, try a phrase watch. Ask us to tell you when "Sold out" disappears from any public page.
Restocks can sell out fast. Faster plans check more often: every 60 minutes for $3, every 30 for $5, and every 15 for $12.

Questions

Which stores does it work with?

It works with IKEA.com for stock, and with many other brand stores that publish product data. It also works with any public web page, where it can watch for a phrase to appear or disappear. Run the free check on your link to confirm.

Does it work with Amazon?

No. Free Amazon-only trackers such as CamelCamelCamel and Keepa already cover Amazon. WatchForMe is for the brand stores and web pages those tools can't see. Walmart, Target prices, Home Depot, Costco, Lowe's, Lego.com, Sephora, Newegg, B&H, Ticketmaster and StubHub aren't supported either. Best Buy, eBay and Etsy are coming soon.

How much does it cost?

It's a one-time payment with no subscription and no account. $3 gets 1 watch for 30 days, checked every 60 minutes. $5 gets 3 watches for 30 days, checked every 30 minutes. $12 gets 10 watches for 30 days, checked every 15 minutes. Prices include tax.

Can I stop a watch or see its status?

Yes. Each watch has a private link where you can see it or stop it.

What if it doesn't work for my page?

Ask for a refund within 7 days. The free check should also tell you up front whether your link can be read.
