Before you start

Spotify monitoring,
answered.

Can I get alerts when something changes on Spotify?

Yes. A Monocrawl monitor checks Spotify on your schedule and compares each check with the last, so you hear about monthly listener and follower moves, playlist changes, new releases and new episodes rather than the same results again.

Do I need a Spotify account?

No. You do not need a Spotify for Artists account or developer app. Monitors read public data through your Monocrawl key.

How far back does a Spotify monitor go?

A monitor starts from its first check and builds follower and listener history from its own checks.

How often can a Spotify monitor run, and what does it cost?

Every 15 minutes, hourly, every 6 or 12 hours, daily or weekly. Watching an artist costs 2 credits a check: about 60 credits a month daily, 1,440 credits hourly. New accounts start with 150 free credits, and each check requires sufficient available funding.

Do I need to write code?

No. Build a monitor in the dashboard and send alerts to Slack, Discord or a webhook. If you prefer code, monitors are also available through the API and MCP.
