Peekivo and ChangeTower: how they differ
Last reviewed
ChangeTower is the better choice if you need a documented change archive with snapshot history, team plans and enterprise features such as SAML single sign-on, notification review workflows and full page archiving, available today. Peekivo is in early access with a waitlist; it is built around one approval step that shows the page, the rule and an earlier example before anything is watched.

Where Peekivo is different
- Before anything is watched, Peekivo shows one approval card with the page, the rule and an earlier example of a match, so you can see what a match looks like before you turn it on.
- Each watch keeps its last attempt and its last successful read apart, so a page that could not be read never looks like a page that did not change.
- An alert shows the page before and after the change, next to the rule that matched.
- Peekivo does not get around logins, CAPTCHAs or bot walls. When a read is blocked, the watch says it was blocked.
- The proposed plans do not charge automatically for extra usage. Plan names, limits and prices are proposals until launch.
