PR-CY review (2026): is the free plan enough?
Site checker, Google and Yandex rank tracker and AI tool catalog
PR-CY report card
Fair · out of 4.0 · graded Oct 23, 2026
Best for rank tracking in Google and Yandex
PR-CY checks any domain in seconds, tracks rankings in Google and Yandex, audits pages daily and adds an AI assistant and a catalog of 149 AI tools. Basic is $15 a month, and there's a free plan. But it covers Google and Yandex only, rank checks and tools share one pool of limits, and the Pro trial needs a card and turns into a paid plan.
Who PR-CY is for
- Fits if your sites need rankings in Yandex as well as Google
- Works for quick checks of a domain without making an account
Who PR-CY is not for
- Skip it if you need Bing or any engine besides Google and Yandex, as no others are named
- Watch out: the Pro trial needs a bank card and turns into a paid plan after 7 days, with refunds asked within 48 hours
- Tight if you track a lot, as rank checks and tools share one pool, at 0.1 limit per keyword, engine and region
- Pricey if you need the API or a team, as the API starts on Pro at $35 and team access only comes with Agency at $140
- Tight if you stay free, with 1 project, about 100 keyword checks a day and a 10-page audit
Why PR-CY gets a 2.4
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- AValue for moneyBasic is $15 a month for 2 projects and about 500 keyword checks a day, or 12 months for the price of 10 on yearly billing, about $12.50 a month. That's under 60% of this category's cheaper quarter. The API waits for Pro at $35.
- CFree plan and trialA free plan: 1 project, 10 limits a day, about 100 keyword checks, and a 10-page audit. You'll hit that fast. The Pro trial lasts 7 days but needs a bank card and becomes a paid plan.
- CFeaturesDaily rank tracking with position history and URL change alerts, a site audit, instant domain checks, PDF reports, an AI assistant and a site analysis API. The gap the listing names: rankings cover Google and Yandex only.
- CEase of useNo rating on record. A domain check needs no account, but rank checks and tools draw on one shared pool of limits, which takes some working out.
- CPlatforms and integrationsWeb only, with no integrations on record. The one link out is a site analysis API on Pro and Agency, and there's no desktop or phone app.

Keep PR-CY, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace PR-CY 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 $180 a year.
What you could make
- Reports: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- Search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date.
- Daily checks of where your pages rank in search results.
- A crawler that checks every page of a site.
- An API that other software can build on.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. PR-CY’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
