Which one is for you
Pick Schemantra if
- Fits if you need a schema.org type that Google's rich result tools don't cover
- Works for mapping how the entities on a page relate before you write the markup
Look elsewhere if
- Watch out: it's still labeled a beta, the footer copyright reads 2022 and the newest blog posts are from March 2024
- Not for you if you want markup tested, as it only writes it
- Too light for sites that need markup added and monitored, as you paste it in yourself and nothing is checked later
- Skip it if you don't want an account, which is needed to create and save schemas
Pick WordLift if
- Fits if you want an outside SEO team to build and run your structured data
- Works for publishers on WordPress who want entities tagged as posts are written
Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if you're one person or a small business, at $879 a month even on yearly billing
- Not for you if you want to try it first, as there's no free trial and buying starts with a discovery call
- Watch out: Smart Credits expire each month, or each year on yearly billing, and extra ones come through your account manager
- Tight if your site has more than 2,500 URLs, which moves you to a custom Enterprise quote
- Skip it if you need the full open API, which comes only with Enterprise
How we grade them
| 2.6GPASchemantraGood | 1.6GPAWordLiftWeak | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | AFree: an account builds, saves and draws markup for any schema.org type, and the site shows no paid plan. Custom ontology work is a separate service with no prices shown. | DBusiness+ is $879 a month billed yearly ($1,100 monthly) for 2,500 URLs, with a project manager and strategy sessions included. That's far above this category's dearest tenth, which starts at $99; the managed service is what lifts it. |
| Free plan and trial | AFree outright, with no limits stated. You need an account to create and save schemas. | FNothing free on the pricing page: no free plan and no trial. The separate Resolve entity API, a beta, gives 1,000 free requests a month. |
| Features | DOne narrow job: writing JSON-LD across the full schema.org vocabulary, 1,353 types and 1,448 properties, with sub-schemas and a graph view. It doesn't test markup, add it to pages or watch it afterward. | CA knowledge graph linked to Wikidata, schema markup published from it, AI Q&A and product descriptions, internal link suggestions, and a WordPress plugin that tags entities in 32 languages. It does structured data fully, but that's a smaller job, and the AI tools are capped by credits. |
| Ease of use | CNo rating on record. You sign in and build each schema field by field, and nesting sub-schemas means knowing how schema.org types relate. There's a free course and step-by-step guides. | CNo rating on record. It starts with a discovery session and works through a project manager, and the AI features run on a monthly Smart Credit allowance you have to watch. |
| Platforms and integrations | CWeb only, with no integrations or API on record. Markup leaves the app by copy and paste, or through a tag manager you set up. | BWeb only, with a WordPress plugin, Wikidata, Databricks and GS1 Digital Link. The full open API comes only with Enterprise. No desktop or phone app. |

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
