Pricing

Simple pay-per-result. You're charged a tiny amount per keyword returned — no monthly fee, no minimum. Keyword difficulty and search intent are an optional low-cost add-on charged only when you turn them on. A 1,000-keyword research run costs about the price of a coffee, versus a $99+/month SEO subscription.
