## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.0 out of 4**, graded Oct 23, 2026. SECockpit is a web keyword tool from a Swiss company that pulls ideas from Google Ads, Google Suggest, YouTube and Amazon, scores page-one competition with Moz data, and adds a daily rank tracker on Pro. Personal, at $25 a month yearly, gets 10 searches a day from Google Ads ideas only, so the full tool starts at $42. Rank tracking stops at 100 keywords, and there's no API.

- **Value for money: D.** Personal is $25 a month on yearly billing, but that's 10 searches a day from Google Ads ideas only. The other sources and the rank tracker need Pro, $42 a month yearly or $59 monthly, more than twice this category's $17 middle.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** No free plan. There's a 7-day trial, and the site doesn't say whether a card is needed. Purchases carry a 30-day money-back guarantee, one refund per person per product.
- **Features: B.** Ideas from Google Ads, Suggest, related searches, YouTube and Amazon, page-one competition with Moz data, a traffic and conversion calculator, branded reports and daily rank tracking on Pro. That covers the whole job.
- **Ease of use: C.** No rating on record. It's laid out like a spreadsheet, with every column to sort and filter and a deep competition analysis per keyword, so there's a fair bit to learn.
- **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web only, with no desktop or phone app and no API on record. Google Ads and Moz show up as integrations, but they're where its data comes from rather than tools you connect.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace SECockpit 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 $300 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 depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
