How we grade them
| 2.2GPALowFruitsFair | 2.0GPAMangoolsFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | BStandard is $20.75 a month billed yearly ($29.90 monthly) for 3,000 credits a month, inside this category's cheapest quarter. Credits are the catch: one per keyword analyzed, and monthly ones don't roll over. | CBasic is $37.70 a month on yearly billing ($61 monthly), exactly this category's middle. That buys 100 keyword lookups a day, 200 tracked keywords and 500 AI prompts. Paying monthly costs a lot more, and refunds only run for 48 hours. |
| Free plan and trial | CWithout a plan you get 3 Keyword Finder searches every 7 days, and analyzing results needs pay-as-you-go credits, from $25 for 2,000. There's no trial. | CA free plan with no card: 5 keyword lookups every 24 hours, each showing 15 related keywords. Enough to see how it works, not enough to do research. There's no trial of the paid plans. |
| Features | CSERP weakness checks, long-tail ideas from Autocomplete, clustering by intent, competitor and sitemap extraction, a database of weak sites and a rank tracker. It does its keyword job fully, but that's a smaller job, and there's no API. | CKeyword research down to city level, SERP checks, rank tracking, backlinks from Majestic's index, domain metrics and AI answer tracking on every plan. The gaps: rankings update weekly except on Agency, and none of the five tools audits your site. |
| Ease of use | CNo rating on record. Reading results for weak spots is a smart idea, but credits, filters and clusters take some learning to use without wasting them. | CNo rating on record. The tools are pitched at bloggers and read simply, but daily lookup caps and setting up rank tracking take some getting used to. |
| Platforms and integrations | CWeb only, with no integrations on record and no API. No desktop or phone app. | CWeb plus a browser extension, with Looker Studio the one integration on the listing. No desktop or phone app. |
| Best for | finding easy keywords for new sites | simple keyword research for bloggers |
