Automate competitive price tracking with Oxylabs

Swiftask orchestrates your AI agents to extract pricing data via Oxylabs. Continuously analyze the market and react to fluctuations instantly.

Result:

Gain a decisive competitive advantage by automating your price intelligence with no code.

Manual price monitoring is a strategic dead-end

Manually scanning e-commerce sites is time-consuming and inaccurate. Prices change daily, or even hourly. Without automation, your teams make decisions based on outdated data, losing market share.

Main negative impacts:

  • Limited reactivity: The delay between a competitor's price drop and your adjustment results in lost sales volume.
  • Fragmented data: Manual collection prevents a consolidated view of long-term price trends.
  • High operational costs: Allocating human resources for manual scraping is a waste of talent and budget.

Swiftask automates the process: your AI agents query Oxylabs data, compare prices with your catalog, and trigger immediate alerts or adjustments.

BEFORE / AFTER

What changes with Swiftask

The traditional process

Your teams browse competitor sites daily, note prices in an Excel file, and manually attempt to adjust rates. The work is slow, error-prone, and fails to keep pace with the market.

The Swiftask + Oxylabs approach

The Swiftask AI agent triggers an Oxylabs request at regular intervals. It processes the data, identifies price gaps, and notifies you or automatically updates your rates in your management system.

Automate your intelligence in four steps

STEP 1 : Define targets

Configure the specific competitor sites and products to monitor within Swiftask.

STEP 2 : Connect Oxylabs

Enable the Oxylabs connector to extract data securely and without blocks.

STEP 3 : AI processing

The AI agent analyzes the extracted data to detect significant price changes.

STEP 4 : Automated action

Receive a consolidated report or trigger an automatic update of your pricing.

Capabilities of your AI agents

Your agents analyze price trends, seasonal promotions, and positioning relative to the market average.

  • Target connector: The agent performs the right actions in oxylabs based on event context.
  • Automated actions: Price extraction via Oxylabs proxy, automatic catalog comparison, Slack/Email alerts on critical movements, weekly evolution reporting.
  • Native governance: Traceability of every extracted data point is maintained to ensure the reliability of your decisions.

Each action is contextualized and executed automatically at the right time.

Each Swiftask agent uses a dedicated identity (e.g. agent-oxylabs@swiftask.ai ). You keep full visibility on every action and every sent message.

Key takeaway: The agent automates repetitive decisions and leaves high-value actions to your teams.
