Comparison
CiteViz vs OpenSEO
Both work on organic search. OpenSEO gives you data and dashboards; we give you a ranked queue of jobs with the work already written, and a report afterwards proving what it earned.
OpenSEO
Price: $10/month including $10 of usage, then pay as you go (about $0.05 per keyword search, $0.08 per backlink overview); free to self-host; checked 8 October 2026 (their pricing page)
Data: DataForSEO for keywords, SERPs and links, plus Google Search Console
Strong at: Open source under MIT, cheap, usage-based billing, an MCP server for AI agents, and you can run it yourself. A very honest product for people who want raw data at cost.
Watch out for: It is a toolbox: keyword tables, rank charts, link lists. Deciding what to do with them, writing the change and proving it worked is left to you.

When to pick OpenSEO
Open source under MIT, cheap, usage-based billing, an MCP server for AI agents, and you can run it yourself. A very honest product for people who want raw data at cost. None of that goes away because you use us: a lot of teams keep one of the big suites for research and use this for the weekly work.
When to pick CiteViz
When the bottleneck is not knowing what is wrong but getting it done, and when you have to show someone what the work earned. That is the whole product: a queue you can finish and a number you can defend.
