Comparison
CiteViz vs Surfer SEO
Both work on organic search. Surfer SEO 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.
Surfer SEO
Price: Essential $99, Scale $219 per month (their pricing page)
Data: SERP scraping for the query you are writing for
Strong at: The content editor is genuinely good at shaping one page against the current top 10.
Watch out for: It sees one document at a time. It cannot tell you that two of your pages are fighting over the same query, that a page lost 40% of its clicks in 90 days, or that 300 URLs earn nothing.
CiteViz
Price: Starter $49, Growth $149, Agency $499 per month
Data: your own Search Console export, a crawl of your site, and DataForSEO data (keywords, rankings, links)
- Whole-site view first: which page to fix, then what to write on it.
- The brief comes from queries you already rank for, so it targets demand you have measured.
- Merge plans and redirects, not only new drafts.
- The result is measured against Search Console afterwards, not scored against a word count.

| AI answer engines | little to none | same account: ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, Grok |
When to pick Surfer SEO
The content editor is genuinely good at shaping one page against the current top 10. 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.
