Runs SEO and AI-search optimisation together, and publishes into your CMS itself.
- AI visibility tracking across ChatGPT and Perplexity
- Content writing engine with CMS auto-publishing

- In-page keyword data overlay on Google, YouTube, Amazon, and more
- Search volume, CPC, and competition metrics per keyword
- 12-month search trend charts
Free installation still delivers usable keyword ideas without spending a credit
Core data (search volume, CPC, trends) sits behind paid credits, so the free tier alone will not cover real keyword research
