- It does not discover backlinks; you import them from another tool or add them by hand.
- There is no fixed check interval: the timing varies by link, and each link's page shows its next check.
- It does not send outreach or recover lost links for you; it records changes and keeps follow-up notes.
- Marketplace placements are bought separately, and their prices are shown only after you sign in.
