Does anyone have a good way of tracking equipment/schedule changes that works across multiple airlines?

EF has a 30 alert limit (schedule + equipment counts as 2), and I have more than 15 flights booked (in the next 7 days), and I don't want to manually enter everything.

I'd need something like 5. I don't want to pay $500/year for EF.

Nor do I want to manually enter every flight.

I've been playing around with the TripIt API, so I can at least pull down a list of all my flights like this:

Code:
AC  754 SFO-YYZ 2017-11-17T22:45:00-08:00 - 2017-11-18T06:33:00-05:00
AC  846 YYZ-MUC 2017-11-18T20:20:00-05:00 - 2017-11-19T10:00:00+01:00
AC  847 MUC-YYZ 2017-11-19T11:50:00+01:00 - 2017-11-19T14:45:00-05:00
AC  753 YYZ-SFO 2017-11-19T16:55:00-05:00 - 2017-11-19T19:38:00-08:00
I suppose I could just hit the AC flight status API for each of those segments to compare. Maybe I could also get the equipment that way.

Don't know the answer: can KVS do this (are they still around? I haven't heard about them in a while)?

Exclamation

As this is a query more appropriate for the Travel Tools forum it's been moved here from the Air Canada forum for further input.
