Aither Watch guide
Show the change, not just the task status
A practical way to show clients what was observed before and after a website change, with the scope kept clear.

Explore a fictional before-and-after finding, compare possible outcomes and download a sample change record. No sign-in required.
Explore the example →Save the original observation
Run a signed-in check of a website you manage. In its saved report, choose Choose review items, select relevant website findings or business recommendations, then save the selected follow-ups. Each keeps its original observation, source report, suggested next step and private progress notes. Business recommendations need manual verification even when a later page contains the expected information. The checker reads a limited HTML and link sample; it does not edit the website.
Make the change and run the same check again
After you or the website provider changes the site, open the follow-up and choose Run a new check. The website address is filled in for you; confirm permission and start the check. A newer signed-in report supplies the next observation. Keep the original and new reports within the available retention period.
Compare the evidence
Choose Compare latest evidence on the follow-up. Aither Watch compares the original finding with the newest saved report for the same submitted URL in your account. It shows whether the finding passed in the newer sample, still needs review, or cannot be compared. A missing finding or changed final destination is not accepted as a passing result. Marking a task done never substitutes for an observed result.
Give the client a useful change record
Download the change record as a standalone HTML document, then share it or print it to PDF. It includes the two observations, their timestamps and the limits of the comparison. The export contains the finding details; review it before sending. Account-only source links remain inside your workspace.
Keep the claim as narrow as the evidence
A passing result describes one check in one sampled response. It does not prove that all pages work or that a form reaches an inbox. Recheck real customer journeys separately. The useful outcome is a clear record of what you observed, what you did and what still needs attention.
Run a free HTML and link sample, then review the findings with your website provider.
