## Ways to pay less

- **Save with annual billing** (Annual discount): Keyword.com's pricing page advertises a 20% saving for annual billing; 50 weekly keywords are $36 a year instead of $4 a month. Source: https://keyword.com/pricing/

## Key features

- **Google rank tracking:** Weekly or daily checks to a top-50 or top-100 depth, on desktop or mobile, down to ZIP code, with as many on-demand updates a month as keywords.
- **AI visibility tracking:** Tracks prompts in ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, AI Mode and AI Overviews, plus Claude, Perplexity Sonar, Mistral, DeepSeek and Grok through their APIs.
- **Spyglass snapshots:** Shows the exact results page captured for each ranking, so a reported position can be checked against what was seen.
- **Share of voice and SERP features:** See what share of organic visibility you own against competitors and which SERP features, including AI Overviews, appear for each keyword.
- **Local rank tracking:** Track rankings for a chosen country, city or ZIP code, along with Google Business Profile and Google Maps positions.
- **Reports, API and MCP:** Live shared reports, scheduled email reports, PDF and CSV exports, Looker Studio, an API and an MCP server for Claude Code, Codex or Cursor.

## Good for

- Small sites that want cheap weekly Google rankings
- Agencies sharing live ranking reports with clients
- Teams adding AI answer tracking on a small credit budget

## Worth knowing

- Rank tracking covers Google only; no other search engine is listed.
- Prices assume weekly checks; daily tracking costs about four times as much, and desktop plus mobile for one phrase counts as two keywords.
- A white-label domain for shared reports is an add-on at $29 a month or $278 a year.
- AI checks in API models such as Claude, DeepSeek or Grok cost four times the credits of chat-app engines like ChatGPT.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.6 out of 4**, graded Oct 23, 2026. Keyword.com is a web rank tracker for Google, from $3 a month for 50 keywords checked weekly, with a separate AI visibility tracker on a credit budget. It tracks Google only. Daily checks cost about four times the weekly price, desktop and mobile count as two keywords, API models use four times the AI credits, and reports on your own domain are $29 a month extra.

- **Value for money: A.** $3 a month for 50 weekly keywords on yearly billing ($4 monthly), with the API, MCP, Looker Studio and unlimited sites. That's under 60% of this category's cheaper quarter ($10). Daily checks cost more: 50 keywords are $13 a month, and 500 are $70.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** No free plan, but a 14-day trial with 100 keywords and 20 AI credits, and no card needed.
- **Features: C.** Weekly or daily Google checks to the top 50 or 100, down to ZIP code, with saved results pages, share of voice, Maps tracking and AI answer tracking in ten models. The gap: rank tracking covers Google only, and no other search engine is listed.
- **Ease of use: C.** No rating on record. You pick weekly or daily, depth, device and place for your keywords, and desktop plus mobile for one phrase counts twice, so there's a bit to work out first.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web only, with no desktop or phone app. It links to Search Console, Analytics, Looker Studio, DashThis and Oviond, and has an API and an MCP server for Claude Code, Codex or Cursor.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Keyword.com 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. It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.6 is higher than 34 of the 39 other rank trackers we grade. It costs $36 a year.

- You could make: Reports: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: Search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date.
- You could not: Daily checks of where your pages rank in search results.
- You could not: The same prompts asked of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI answers every day, and the answers kept.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Google Search Console, Google Analytics and Looker Studio among them, and has an API.
