How to Switch from Distill to Hawkwatch (Step-by-Step)

Switching from Distill to Hawkwatch is mostly a matter of following the same three steps every OneTimeSuite app uses — buy once, deploy or install, bring your workflow over.

Step 1: Buy once on Whop

One-time $34 for the packaged Windows installer with updates — Chromium download handled for you.

Step 2: Run it anywhere

Desktop app with data in your user profile, or Docker on a $5 VPS with Chromium baked into the image.

Step 3: Add a URL, get alerts

Hawkwatch auto-detects the price, checks on your schedule, and emails or webhooks you — screenshot included — when something moves.

What to expect during the switch

Hawkwatch covers the same core workflow as Distill, so most people are productive within the first session — see the full feature list and FAQ on the product page before you commit.

Why make the switch at all

Distill runs $12/mo, forever. Hawkwatch is $34, once. Distill Starter costs $144/year. Hawkwatch pays for itself in under 3 months — and it never bills you again.

Try Hawkwatch — $34, once

Headless-Chromium price & stock monitoring with screenshot alerts — no quotas, no subscription.
