How much does AlmaSEO cost?
$49 a month for Solo, $149 for Pro and $299 for Agency. Solo covers 5 sites and one seat, Pro covers 15 sites and three seats, and Agency has unlimited sites, articles, audits and images with 5 team seats included. Past five, seats are $12 a month each and you add them yourself from the team page.
What are data credits?
Some of what AlmaSEO does costs real money every time it runs — a live search result, a backlink index lookup, an AI answer checked across engines. That data is bought from outside AlmaSEO, and credits are how you pay for it. Everything built on Google’s own free data — audits, index checks, Search Console work — costs no credits at all.
Do any plans include monthly credits?
No. No plan includes a recurring monthly credit allowance — credits are purely pay-as-you-go, and you buy a pack when you need one. Packs are $10 for 25,000 credits, $29 for 100,000 and $99 for 500,000, and purchased credits never expire; they sit there until you use them. Agency is the one exception at the start: 25,000 credits arrive free the day you activate, as a one-time welcome rather than a monthly allowance.
Is there a free trial, and do I need a card?
Fourteen days free, and the trial does ask for a card — it means your workspace carries straight on at the end instead of locking. Nothing is charged until day 15 and you can cancel any time before then. Every Agency feature is switched on for it: the client portal, the roles, the AI Agent Workspace, the profitability view. If you would rather look before handing anything over, the read-only demo runs on a populated client workspace with no signup, no login and no card. Trial accounts run on lower monthly usage limits than a paid Agency plan.
Is the cheapest plan a stripped-down version?
No. The SEO toolkit is the same on Solo as it is on Agency — audits, indexing, local rankings, AI search visibility, content, publishing and the quick-win lists are all in the $49. What the larger plans add is reach and the client-facing machinery: more sites and seats, the white-label portal, team roles, and the AI Agent Workspace.
What do I get by moving from Solo to Pro?
Reach, the hands-on layer, and the second person. Pro takes you from 5 sites to 15 and from one seat to three — and those seats are a real team: four roles, access granted client by client, hours logged per person, and a company holiday calendar the retainer maths respects. It is also where
AI Agent Workspace lives — AI-assisted access to the client’s site from the browser, over SSH or Cloudflare and GitHub. Several handoffs on the feature pages, like sending a quick win straight into a rewrite brief, need Pro for that reason.
What does Agency add on top of Pro?
The client-facing and commercial layer. Unlimited sites and 5 team seats with more at $12 a month each, the
white-label client portal on your own logo, colours and domain, proposals you send and clients accept on a page carrying your name, and the profitability view that measures retainer revenue against the hours actually logged. Teams themselves start on Pro; what Agency adds to them is room — five seats instead of three, and more at $12 a month each. The 25,000 welcome credits come with it too.
What happens when my team outgrows the seats?
You buy more, at $12 a month each, up to 45 extra — fifty people on one account. Agency starts with five seats and the team page shows a usage bar of how many are taken; when an invite would take you past the limit it offers you the seats there rather than just refusing. Extra seats are their own line on the card, the account owner adjusts the number up or down whenever the team changes, and nothing else about the plan moves — sites, articles, audits and images are already unlimited on Agency, so a seat is only ever a seat.
Does the AI Agent Workspace cost extra?
It runs on Claude and you bring your own Anthropic API key, so what you spend with Anthropic is between you and Anthropic — AlmaSEO doesn’t mark it up. The workspace itself is included from Pro upwards.
Do you charge per client, the way agency reporting tools do?
No. AlmaSEO is priced by plan, not per client — Agency is $299 flat for unlimited sites, so winning a client doesn’t raise your bill. Per-client reporting tools like AgencyAnalytics meter each client dashboard instead; there is a full
AgencyAnalytics comparison if you’re weighing the two.
