# Instant Monitors

Imagine you're interested in keeping tabs on new book releases on your favorite online bookstore. Instead of setting up a monitor from scratch, you could simply pick a template designed for tracking new releases on book websites. This template already knows what to look for and how to alert you when there's something new.

You can find a variety of these monitors on the [Explore](https://monitoro.app/explore) page, tailored to monitor different kinds of updates across numerous websites, and ready to launch in an instant. Whether it's price changes, new blog posts, or product availability, there's likely a template that fits your needs. If not, just drop us a word!

Instant Monitors come with built-in alerts to get notified the moment something changes. You decide how you want to be alerted—via push notification, email, DM, or another preferred method.

But there's more, after creating your monitor you have access to:

* **Automations**: Streamline your workflow by connecting your monitor to spreadsheets or other tools. Automate data collection or other repetitive tasks to save time.
* **Customization**: While these templates come preconfigured, you're not stuck with the default settings. You can adjust what triggers an alert or what action an automation should take, making sure it fits your specific requirements.

With monitor templates, you get a head start on monitoring what matters to you on the internet, with plenty of room to customize and automate your process.
