Monitoring · 2 min read
Quick steps
- Check the selected account’s Usage page.
- Review paused companies and read-only lists.
- Select companies and review Monitor only these before confirming.
- Check affected alerts and recording coverage afterwards.
What counts towards the allowance
A company counts once across the selected account’s watchlists and direct company alerts. Adding the same company to several lists does not use extra company slots. Followed people, watchlists, saved searches and Discovery rules each have their own allowance. Paused Discovery rules still use saved-rule space; their alerts do not use another rule slot.
Choose which companies stay monitored
Open a watchlist and look for Monitoring paused by your plan. Select the companies you want to keep, then choose Monitor only these. Review the confirmation: the selection applies across the account’s watchlists and replaces your current monitored selection. Other saved companies can remain paused unless another valid monitoring target covers them. This choice is separate from selecting alert delivery.
When your plan or seats reduce
Saved work is kept. Watchlists over the new limit can become read-only, excess company and people monitoring can pause, and paid-only tools may stop running. Personal company and watchlist emails can move to the Free weekly schedule. An inactive team account does not receive a personal Free monitoring allowance. Review Needs attention messages in Alert settings and any recording gaps when monitoring resumes.
Make room or increase capacity
Open Billing & Subscription → Usage to check the selected account’s capacity and usage. Remove unused saved items, choose a smaller monitored selection or review plan options. Removing a company from one list may not free a company slot if another list or direct alert still covers it. Business capacity is pooled across purchased seats; importing a file or comparing companies still has its own per-action limit.
