The timeline lets you understand how a domain has evolved since you started watching it.

Removing Domains

• Click the eye icon again to unwatch a single domain
• Select multiple domains and click Remove from Watchlist in the toolbar
• This stops monitoring but does not delete any stored change history

Use Case: Competitor Monitoring

Add your competitors' domains to the watchlist. When they add new technologies (like a new CRM or analytics tool), you will know — giving you competitive intelligence for your sales conversations.
