Automated Civitai Model Version Alerts

Every morning, WebRun opens each Civitai model page on your dependency list, reads the latest version name and its publish date, compares them against the version your pipeline pins, records any change in Google Sheets with the creator's notes, and sends the affected models to WhatsApp.

In short

How do I know when an AI model I depend on ships a new version?

WebRun opens every Civitai model on your dependency list each morning, reads the latest version and publish date, and compares it against the version your pipeline pins. It records the change in Google Sheets with the creator's notes and sends the affected models to WhatsApp, so outputs do not drift unnoticed.

  • A dependency change is known the same day, not after outputs drift
  • Pinned and live versions sit side by side in one sheet
  • Creator notes and comment reports arrive with the alert, not after a search

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it download models or update my pipeline?

No. WebRun reads model pages and records version numbers. It never downloads a model file, never swaps a version in your pipeline, and never runs a command. Upgrading stays a deliberate human step.

Which models does it watch?

Only the models on your dependency sheet in Google Sheets. Add a model page and the next morning's run picks it up, so the watch list stays yours to control.

Does it tell me what actually changed?

Yes. Each alert carries the new version name, its publish date, and a line from the creator's own version notes, plus a flag if recent comments report a behaviour change.

Put this on autopilot.

Turn it on in minutes - or have our team set it up for you.
