ASIC, OAIC, APRA, AUSTRAC. PageCrawl watches the regulators that have teeth in 2026.
A dedicated alternative to Google Information Agents for Australia.
Since the 2022 Optus and Medibank breaches, Australian regulation has been on a serious trajectory. The Privacy Act review is landing. The OAIC has a new enforcement posture. ACMA's online safety remit is expanding. APRA is mid-inspection on CPS 234 and CPS 230. ASIC is actively litigating. AUSTRAC is busy. State procurement (VendorPanel, ICN, eTendering NSW/VIC/QLD/WA) is fragmented. A team in Sydney or Melbourne cannot rely on a US-based vendor to know what just happened in Canberra at 4pm AEDT.

What are Google Information Agents?
A new feature in Google's paid AI subscription that watches web pages and topics for you. Useful, if you can get it. Here is where PageCrawl fits.
A paid Google AI feature
Information Agents live inside Google AI Pro ($20/mo) and Ultra ($200/mo). They run ongoing research and ping you when a watched topic or page moves. Like Google Alerts, rebuilt as an agent, behind a paywall.
Not available in Australia
Google is rolling out US-first with no published timeline for Australia. No SLA, no regional coverage, and tied to a Google AI subscription you may not want.
PageCrawl, available today
Paste a URL, pick what counts as a change, get alerts on Slack, Teams, email, or webhook. Built for regulators, suppliers, competitors, and council portals. Free tier on every region.
The report comes to you. Instantly, daily, or weekly.
Every change you care about is packaged and delivered on the cadence you pick, routed to the channel your team actually works in. Not buried inside another AI app, not tied to one personal account.
Instant
The moment a page moves.
Critical pages ping Slack, Teams, or webhook within minutes. Configurable per monitor, with AI scoring so noise stays quiet and substantive changes get through.
Daily
One quiet digest each morning.
Yesterday's changes, grouped, summarised by AI, sent at the time you choose. Ideal for council planning portals, regulator press feeds, supplier portals, and competitor changelogs.
Weekly
A roll-up your team can act on.
Per-channel, per-tag, per-folder. Filter by AI priority, route to specific stakeholders, share as a PDF or a hosted page. Replaces three weekly status emails.
Delivered via Slack, Microsoft Teams, email, webhook, Discord, Telegram, RSS, browser push, and the MCP server for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and Codex.
PageCrawl vs Google Information Agents
Side by side, where the two products actually differ for Australian teams.
Why Australian teams pick PageCrawl
Built for the pages your team already watches, on your time zone, with the integrations you already use.
Australian regulators are on their own clocks, in their own time zone
ASIC filings and enforcement updates, the OAIC's post-Privacy-Act-reform notices, APRA prudential standards and CPS 234/230 guidance, AUSTRAC AML/CTF rulings, ACMA decisions, ACCC enforcement, ATO rulings, and TGA notices. Plus state procurement: VendorPanel, ICN, NSW eTendering, Tenders Vic, QTenders, and WA Tenders. PDFs and long policy texts are first-class.
Why not just wait for Google?
Google's Information Agents are a brand-new feature inside a paid AI subscription. They have not launched in Australia. There is no published roadmap, no SLA, and no Privacy Act commitment for that product. Google has a long history of discontinuing services teams come to rely on (Reader, Inbox, Domains, Code, Stadia, Hangouts). Building an APRA or AUSTRAC monitoring workflow on a US consumer product that may or may not reach Australia is not a serious plan.
Delivered to the tools Australian teams actually use
Slack, Microsoft Teams, email, webhooks, Discord, Telegram, RSS, and an MCP server at /mcp-server for Claude, Cursor, and Codex. All included on every paid plan, aligned to AEST/AEDT. Route ASIC and APRA updates to instant pings, tenders to a daily 8am digest.
Authenticated tender portals, the way they actually work
VendorPanel, ICN, NSW eTendering, Tenders Vic, QTenders, and WA Tenders logged-in views. Authenticated monitoring is available from the Standard plan up, with credentials encrypted and session reuse handled. Useful for bidders chasing addenda posted just before close.
Pick your AI model, reach pages others can't
Choose Claude, GPT, or Gemini per workspace for change summaries, depending on what your team trusts and what it pays for. The stealth engine reaches pages behind heavy bot protection that block standard crawlers, and PageCrawl can auto-discover new pages on a site so a new product page or filing shows up in the report without anyone naming the URL.
Team workspaces, queryable history, and exports
Workspaces with role-based access, SSO, and an audit log. Every check stores a diff and a screenshot you can search through later, with CSV, Excel, and PDF exports. Built so a regulator, lawyer, or auditor can see what a page said on a given day without you piecing it back together.
The pages Australian teams already watch
Regulators, registries, councils, supplier portals, competitor sites. PageCrawl has them covered.
APRA-supervised insurer
Tracks CPS 234 and CPS 230 guidance, prudential standards, and supervisory letters, with PDF-aware diffs.
OAIC compliance lead
Watches the OAIC for guidance and determinations as the Privacy Act reform phases in, plus state privacy commissioners.
Corporate counsel
Tracks ASIC enforcement updates, regulatory guides, infringement notices, and Federal Court filings.
AusTender bidder

Watches TGA product registrations, safety alerts, shortages, and recalls.
Four steps from URL to alert

Add the pages you need to watch
Paste URLs from any regulator, supplier, council, or competitor page. PageCrawl handles JavaScript-heavy pages, cookie banners, login walls, and PDFs.
Pick what counts as a change
Track the whole page, a specific element, a price, or a number. Every change is scored 0 to 100 so routine edits stay quiet and substantive ones get attention.
Route alerts where your team works
Slack, Teams, email, webhook, Discord, Telegram, or RSS. Urgent changes ping instantly; the rest roll up into a daily or weekly digest.
Keep an audit trail
Every check stores a diff and a screenshot. Ultimate plans add sealed WACZ archives for pages that need an evidentiary record.
