Which one is for you

Pick SpySERP if

  • Fits if you're a freelancer tracking a few hundred keywords across several engines
  • Works for checking volatile terms as often as every 30 minutes

Look elsewhere if

  • Skip it if a team needs its own seats or custom reports, as both are listed as still in development
  • Watch out: checks over the plan are billed automatically, from $1.69 per 1,000 on Pro 5k
  • Not for you if you want to trial the full version without handing over a card
  • Too light for ongoing use on the free plan, which stops at one project with 5 keywords and 2 engines
  • Not for you if you want a desktop or phone app, as it's web only and exports only to Google Drive

Pick Topvisor if

  • Fits if you need Yandex or Seznam rankings alongside Google
  • Works for agencies with many projects that want to pay per check rather than per keyword

Look elsewhere if

  • Tight if your usage swings, since plan credit you don't spend is lost each month
  • Pricey if you track lots of AI prompts, at 6¢ a check at full price
  • Not for you if you want one flat monthly price you can predict
  • Watch out: with no plan, every check is full price, 0.15¢ per keyword for each results page
  • Not for you if you want a desktop or phone app, as it's web only

Value for money
BPro 5k is $9 a month for 5,000 keyword checks, with 500 projects and 10 engines per project. That's inside this category's cheaper quarter ($10). Going over is billed automatically at $1.69 per 1,000 checks.
CPlan S is $29 a month, all of it credited to your balance for checks, with 10% off each one. That's in the middle of what rank trackers charge. You can also pay full price per check with no plan, but unspent plan credit is lost each month.
Free plan and trial
CA free plan that keeps going, with the API and sharing, but it's one project with 5 keywords and 2 engines, a cap you'll hit fast. The 7-day trial of the full version needs a card.
CNo free plan. Instead you get a credit on your balance at sign-up, no card needed, that works on any tool and never expires. Once it's spent, you pay per check.
Features
CDesktop and mobile rankings in Google, Bing, Yahoo, Seznam and others by city and language, checks down to every 30 minutes, competitors, keyword clustering and scheduled reports. Gaps it lists itself: multi-user seats and custom reports are still in development.
BRankings in Google, Yandex, Bing, Seznam, YouTube, the App Store and Google Play, AI Tracker across seven chatbots, saved results pages with AI Overview texts, keyword research, clustering and a site audit. It covers the whole job.
Ease of use
CNo rating on record. Plans count checks, not keywords, so you work out keywords times engines times how often before picking one, then set up projects and competitors.
CNo rating on record. Pricing runs per check, per results page and per AI prompt, so it takes some working out what a project will cost, and there are a lot of tools beyond the tracker.
Platforms and integrations

Worth knowing

SpySERP

  • Plans count checks, not keywords: each keyword checked once in one search engine uses one check, so daily tracking uses about 30 a month per keyword.
  • Going over a plan's checks is billed automatically, from $1.69 per 1,000 on Pro 5k to $0.79 on Pro 1kk.
  • Multi-user seats, custom reports and semantics analysis are listed as still in development.
  • The free trial asks for a card, and the free plan stops at 5 keywords in one project.

Topvisor

  • Without a plan, checks are paid from a topped-up balance at full price: 0.15¢ per keyword for each results page checked (10 results in Google, 100 in Yandex).
  • A plan's monthly fee becomes credit that expires at the end of the month, so it pays off only if you spend at least that much on checks.
  • AI Tracker is priced per prompt and AI checked, from 6¢ per check at full price.
  • Accounts are kept in rubles or dollars; the English pages show dollar prices.

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.
