- **Value for money: B.** Starter is $13 a month billed yearly ($19 monthly) for 75 credits, inside this category's cheapest quarter ($20). A SERP analysis is 1 credit and a brief 5, so that's 75 analyses or 15 briefs a month.

- **Features: C.** 100-result SERP analysis in 196 countries, AI answer comparison, AI Overview monitoring, briefs and AI drafts, keyword clustering, a page audit and an API. Research and briefs are covered, but no editor that scores a draft as you write is on record.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace thruuu 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 $156 a year.

- You could not: Search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date.
- You could not: Search results fetched at scale from many countries without being blocked.
- You could not: A score built from what the top results for each keyword cover.
- 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: An API that other software can build on.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
