## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace KeywordsPeopleUse 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 costs $144 a year.

- 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.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Google Search Console and Claude among them, and has an API.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
