2 open-source projects that already do this job. Free to use - not free to run, which is what the numbers on the right are for.

What you give up either way
- Scale and reliability of a maintained multi-tenant SaaS (uptime, monitoring, retries)
- Proven ranking/tuning optimizations and tested SEO heuristics from product maturity
- Polished UI, onboarding flows, and priority support
- Built integrations catalogue and maintenance for many CMS platforms
An open-source project doing the core job proves a replacement is possible. It does not prove it matches RankSpot ❤️, and it does not prove anyone has run it for a month. How we decide.
