Rank Tracking
SEOmonitor: what it does, what it costs
Forecasting built to win the pitch, and a deliberate refusal to bill per AI prompt.
What SEOmonitor is
SEOmonitor is organised around an agency's commercial cycle rather than around a dashboard — pitch, win, execute, prove. Its centrepiece is forecasting: it converts projected ranking improvements into month-by-month traffic projections, adjusted for seasonality, so a proposal can state what the work should deliver instead of describing what the work is. That is a sales tool as much as an SEO one.
It takes a clear and contrarian position on AI search. Rather than tracking individual prompts, it argues that one keyword corresponds to thousands of possible prompts, so it tracks keywords and reports AI Overviews and ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity citations against the same keyword strategy. Whether you agree decides whether this tool or a per-prompt tracker fits how you think — the two approaches are not interchangeable, and the pricing follows the philosophy.
Unlimited seats on every plan is the other structural choice, and it is aimed squarely at the competitors who charge per user. Starter is €99 a month for one website; Pro is €299 for agencies running multiple campaigns and scales to 200,000 keywords. AI search keywords are Pro-only, which is the main thing to check before assuming Starter covers you.
What you can use it for
- Build a forecast and business case to win an SEO pitch
- Track rankings, AI Overviews and LLM citations against one keyword strategy
- Report organic performance to clients without per-seat fees
- Project traffic month by month with seasonality accounted for
The features that matter for SEO
Each one says what it does and the SEO job it serves. A vendor feature list without that second half tells you nothing you could not read on their own site.
Forecasting and business case builder
Converts projected ranking improvements into month-by-month traffic projections adjusted for seasonality, and packages them as a business case.
The reason agencies buy it. It answers the question a prospect actually asks — what will this be worth — which no ranking report does.
A forecast is a model. It is a defensible basis for a proposal, not a promise.
Keyword-level AI tracking, not prompt-level
Reports AI Overviews and ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity citations against the same keyword set rather than tracking individual prompts.
A deliberate philosophical stance — one keyword maps to thousands of prompts, so tracking keywords keeps one strategy across channels. It also avoids the per-prompt costs that per-prompt trackers charge.
AI Search Keywords require the Pro plan.
Unlimited seats on every plan
Places no cap on users at any tier.
Removes the fee that scales with agency headcount, and the pricing page makes a direct comparison with rivals who charge €19 to €48 a user.
Unified organic reporting
Brings Google rankings, AI Overviews and LLM citations into one view with GA and Search Console connected.
The fragmentation problem is real — separate AI and organic reports invite the client to ask which one is true. One view avoids the question.
Personalised SEO difficulty
Scores difficulty relative to the tracked site rather than in the abstract.
More useful than a universal difficulty score, because whether a keyword is winnable depends on who is asking.
All competitors tracked
Tracks all competitors rather than a capped list, on both plans.
Competitor caps are a common hidden limit in rank tracking, and removing it changes what you can see about a market.
AI Content Writer
Generates articles, with 10 included on Starter and a standalone Writer-Only plan at €25.
Present and separately purchasable, but the platform's centre of gravity is measurement and forecasting, not production.
Pricing and limits
Starting price: From €99/month (Starter, 1,000 keywords); Pro from €299/month Checked 20 August 2026 Vendor’s own pricing page
| Plan | Price | What it includes |
|---|---|---|
| Starter | €99 /mo | The vendor positions this for a single website. AI Search Keywords are not available on it.
|
| Pro | €299 /mo | Marked most popular by the vendor, and positioned for agencies and brands.
|
| Writer-Only | €25 /mo | A separate plan for publishers who want the content writer without the tracking platform.
|
| Add-ons Add-on | +€10 per GA/GSC connection; +€49 per 1,000 daily keywords /mo | Bought on top of a plan rather than requiring a tier upgrade. |
Add-on rows are only ever charged on top of a plan, so they are excluded from the entry price used in the directory’s price filter.
Strengths and limitations
Strengths
- Forecasting and business cases aimed at winning work, not just reporting it
- Unlimited seats on every plan
- AI Overviews and LLM citations tracked against the same keyword strategy
- All competitors tracked, with no cap
- Add-ons let you extend a plan instead of jumping a tier
Limitations
- AI Search Keywords are Pro-only, at €299 a month
- Starter is one campaign and one GA/GSC connection — genuinely single-site
- Priced in euros, which adds currency risk for non-euro billing
- Prompt-level AI tracking is deliberately not offered, if that is what you need
- No crawling, technical auditing or link tooling
Who it is for, and who should skip it
Worth it if
- Agencies who pitch and need a credible forecast to win retainers
- Teams large enough that per-seat pricing hurts
- Anyone wanting one keyword strategy across organic and AI surfaces
Skip it if
- You want to track individual AI prompts
- You need technical or link tooling in the same subscription
- You are a single site on a small budget — Starter is capable but not cheap

Questions
How much does SEOmonitor cost?
Starter is €99 a month based on 1,000 daily tracked keywords, and Pro is €299 based on 3,000, scaling to 200,000. A Writer-Only plan is €25. Extra GA/GSC connections are €10 each and extra daily keywords €49 per 1,000. All plans include unlimited seats. Verified on 20 August 2026.
Why does it track keywords instead of AI prompts?
Its argument is that one keyword corresponds to thousands of possible prompts, so tracking prompts samples a space you cannot cover, while tracking keywords keeps one strategy across organic and AI surfaces. If you specifically want named prompts monitored, a per-prompt tracker is the other choice — the two are genuinely different approaches, not different price points.
What is the forecasting actually for?
Winning work. It turns projected ranking gains into month-by-month traffic estimates adjusted for seasonality, which is what lets a proposal state expected value rather than describe activity. Treat the output as a defensible model, not a guarantee.
