Keeping up with the news on one thing is a chore. You search again and again. You scroll past stories you don't need. Then you miss the one article that mattered, like a news story about your employer, a competitor, or a person you follow.
WatchForMe does the checking for you. Describe what you want in plain English, like "Email me when there is news about Allbirds." We turn that into a news watch. When a new article about that name, brand, or topic appears, you get an email right away. There is no account to make and no app to install.
How to set it up
Type what you want to follow, such as a name, a brand, or a topic, in plain English.
Pick a plan: $3 for 1 watch, $5 for 3 watches, or $12 for 10 watches. Each is a one-time payment for 30 days.
Wait for the email. It arrives when a new news article about your topic shows up.
Things you can type
“Email me when there is news about Gymshark”
“Tell me when a new article is published about my city's school board”
“Let me know when there is news about [your company name]”
“Email me when new articles come out about electric bike regulations”
Start a watch in a minute
Describe it in plain English. From $3 for 30 days, one-time, no account or app.
Be specific. A full name or brand name works better than a broad word. "Allbirds" will give you a tighter feed than "shoes."
Use one watch per subject. If you care about a brand and a rival, set up two watches so you know which one each email is about.
Pick your check speed by how fast you need to know. The $3 plan checks every 60 minutes, $5 every 30 minutes, and $12 every 15 minutes.
This watches news articles. If you want to know when a phrase appears on a specific public web page, that is a separate kind of watch, and pages behind a login are not supported.
Questions
What can I follow with a news watch?
Any name, brand, or topic. You describe it in plain English, and we watch for new news articles about it.
How will I know when something new is published?
You get an email the moment it happens. Nothing to open or refresh.
Do I need an account or an app?
No. WatchForMe is not a browser extension, and it needs no app. You pay once and use email.
How much does it cost, and is it a subscription?
It is not a subscription. $3 gets 1 watch for 30 days, checked every 60 minutes. $5 gets 3 watches checked every 30 minutes. $12 gets 10 watches checked every 15 minutes. Prices include tax.
How do I stop a watch or see what it is doing?
Each watch has a private link where you can see it or stop it. If it doesn't work for your topic, you can ask for a refund within 7 days.
We'll email you on Wednesday, November 25, so you can set your price-drop and restock watches before the sales start, and once more before Cyber Monday.
