Limits worth knowing in GeckoGrid

  • It runs only on Windows or an Apple Silicon Mac with Google Chrome, and scheduled scans need the app running and the computer awake.
  • A 7x7 local scan often takes around 10 minutes, and after 40 local scans in a day it slows to one scan at a time.
  • API scans are billed by DataForSEO on your own account, which GeckoGrid puts at $0.03 to $0.10 for a 7x7 grid.
  • Charges after the trial are non-refundable, except a refund request within seven days of the charge if a trial was not cancelled; Lifetime has no trial.
