- Only yearly billing is published; the struck-through $60/$140/$200 per-month figures are not used.
- Per-user/seat terms are not described on the pricing page.
Semrush
- The pricing page does not say how many logins a plan includes — extra users are an add-on “starting at $45/mo”, so teams pay per head.
- SEO and Starter have the same 5-site / 500-keyword limits; Starter’s extra $59/mo buys AI Visibility, not more tracking.
- Annual billing saves up to 17% ($117.33/mo instead of $139.95 on SEO).
