Could you build this?

Partial The alert frontend and notification system are standard, but reliably scraping and monitoring 1,100+ distinct e-commerce stores in real-time across Europe requires dedicated anti-bot evasion and scraping infrastructure.

What it would actually take: A functional system needs distributed scraping nodes or residential proxy pools to bypass Cloudflare/Akamai across 1,100+ merchant websites, coupled with headless browser runners (Playwright) or reverse-engineered private store APIs (Shopify, Magento, WooCommerce). A Redis queue processes stock diffs every few minutes, pushing real-time notifications via WebSockets, Telegram, or Discord webhooks.
