## Key features

- **SERP-based clustering:** Each keyword is run through Google and its top 10 ranking pages compared; keywords with 3 or more pages in common are put in the same cluster.
- **Ahrefs and Semrush imports:** Upload keyword export files from Ahrefs or Semrush as they are, or a custom CSV file of your own keywords.
- **Location and device targeting:** Run the analysis for any location and for desktop or mobile results, so clusters follow the results searchers there see.
- **Spreadsheet output:** Results arrive within minutes as a CSV or Excel file of keywords grouped into clusters, to plan one page per group and avoid cannibalization.
- **Credits that never expire:** 1 credit clusters 1 keyword, packs are bought once and topped up from the dashboard, and there is no limit on list size beyond your credits.

## Good for

- SEOs turning a large keyword export into a plan of pages
- Occasional users who would rather not pay a monthly subscription
- Checking which keywords one page can target before writing it

## Worth knowing

- It does not find new keywords: you upload a list exported from Ahrefs or Semrush, or a file of your own.
- No free plan, free credits or trial is offered; the smallest pack is $19 for 2,500 keywords.
- Clusters are formed only from shared pages in Google's top 10 results, with 3 or more pages in common.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.0 out of 4**, graded Oct 23, 2026. KeyClusters groups your keywords by checking Google's live top 10 for each one and putting together those that share three or more pages. You upload an Ahrefs or Semrush export, or your own CSV, and get a spreadsheet back, from $19 for 2,500 keywords. But it won't find a single new keyword for you, there's nothing free to try, and it has no API.

- **Value for money: B.** $19 once for 2,500 keywords, with credits that never expire and no subscription. It's priced per keyword, though, so heavy users pay as they go: 100,000 keywords is $350.
- **Free plan and trial: F.** Nothing free: no free plan, no free credits and no trial. The smallest way in is the $19 pack.
- **Features: C.** Clustering from Google's live top 10, by location and device, with Ahrefs and Semrush imports and spreadsheet output. It does clustering fully, but that's a smaller job, and it can't find keywords: you bring the list.
- **Ease of use: B.** No rating on record, but there's little to learn: upload an export as it is, pick a location and device, and a spreadsheet arrives within minutes.
- **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web only, with no API on record. It reads Ahrefs and Semrush export files and hands back CSV or Excel.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace KeyClusters you would be making search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 40 of the 51 other keyword research tools grade higher. It costs $19, paid once.

- You could not: Search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date.
- You could not: A score built from what the top results for each keyword cover.
