The public issue record. Open problems are as informative as resolved ones — so is how fast the company answered.

Content brief citations 404 after 30 days
Cited source URLs stop resolving after a month because the cached snapshot expires, which breaks the audit trail.
Crawler ignores robots.txt crawl-delay
Our staging environment was crawled at 40 req/s despite a crawl-delay of 10, which triggered our rate limiter.

Content briefs that cite their sources
Every recommendation links the pages it learned from, which means I can argue with it. Crawler is fast on a two hundred thousand URL site.

Backlink index smaller than incumbents
Support is the differentiator
Fine for what we need. Not the most powerful option but the least annoying.

Reporting depth
Support is the differentiator
Would recommend for a small team. Larger orgs will want the higher tier.

Fine, not flashy
We evaluated four options and picked this one on support responsiveness. No regrets.
