## Key features

- **Free SEO tool collection:** 84 web tools cover keyword research, rank checking, backlink checking, domain authority, readability and an on-page SEO checker.
- **AI visibility tools:** Free checkers look at how AI models perceive a brand, and the homepage names Claude among the models. The API lists ChatGPT and Gemini visibility endpoints.
- **SEO content editor:** A free writing assistant scores content for search and adds AI optimization feedback.
- **Data API:** Backlinks, keywords, rankings, traffic estimates, domain authority and AI visibility are available by API, with every endpoint included on every plan.

## Good for

- Individuals who need occasional quick checks without a subscription
- Developers building custom SEO dashboards or reports on an API
- Agencies that want white-label reports from API data

## Worth knowing

- The paid product is a metered API, not a dashboard suite; the monthly credits are 7,500, 25,000 or 75,000.
- Free tools are individual checkers, so there is no single project dashboard for ongoing tracking.
- Annual API billing saves 20%, but is billed as one yearly payment of $720, $1,680 or $4,320.
- The Chrome extension is the only browser extension named on the homepage.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.6 out of 4**, graded Nov 13, 2026. SEO Review Tools offers 84 web tools free to use, from a keyword tool to a rank checker, and sells a metered API on top. The free tools are separate checkers with no project dashboard, and the paid part is an API at $75 a month for 7,500 credits, not an SEO suite.

- **Value for money: B.** The 84 web tools are free. The paid API starts at $60 a month on annual billing ($720 up front) or $75 monthly, which is dearer quarter territory in a category whose middle is $40.
- **Free plan and trial: B.** The web tools are free to use, and the API has a 15-day trial with 500 credits. One person checking a site now and then could live on the free tools.
- **Features: C.** Many individual checkers, an AI visibility tool and a content editor. No single project dashboard exists for ongoing tracking, so it is a toolbox rather than a suite.
- **Ease of use: C.** No store rating is on record. Free tools take a URL or keyword and return a result, but the API needs developer setup.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, a Chrome extension, an API, an MCP server, Google Sheets and Postman.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace SEO Review Tools 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 61 of the 70 other SEO tools we grade. It costs $720 a year.

- You could not: Search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date.
- You could not: An index of the links between billions of web pages.
- You could not: Search results fetched at scale from many countries without being blocked.
- 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 Sheets and Postman among them, and has an API.
