*during the beta. Cloud costs nothing while we stabilize it, and self-hosting costs nothing forever. Paid Cloud plans arrive later; everyone gets at least a month's notice, and nothing ever switches to paid automatically.
A monthly subscription.
What you are pricing:
Working assumption, so every vote means the same thing. Exact limits are not final.
What would feel fair for that, per month?
The subscription covers the platform. Data costs depend on usage - estimate yours.
We will give beta users at least one month's notice before anything changes. Nothing switches to paid automatically, and there is no charge unless you add a card first.
Your account keeps working while you choose what is right for you: subscribe to the hosted service, self-host the AGPL-3.0 application for free, or export your full history and leave.
No. The hosted beta does not require a card, and self-hosting does not require one either.
You still need your own SERP provider account for rank checks and research. That provider bills you directly for its usage; bisibility never charges or resells those requests.
Yes. Download a project package from the hosted app to keep its keywords and completed ranking history together, then restore that package into a self-hosted project. Provider keys, analytics tokens, and user passwords are intentionally excluded.
You can also export project rank history as CSV through the app or REST API. The API supports the same history filters as the app and streams completed checks as CSV.
That depends on how many keywords you track, how often, and how deep. You pay your provider directly, at their prices, and the cost calculator works out the monthly figure before you connect anything.
When the product is ready for them. Whatever the date, beta users get at least a month's notice before anything changes.
Undecided. If the votes and the numbers say there should be one, there will be one.
Yes, and forever - that is the point. bisibility exists out of frustration that SEO tools are too pricey for the basics: rank tracking you need every day, keyword research you need a few times a month. Same application, AGPL-3.0. You run it, you own it.
Features that exist today stay free. Some special future feature might be paid one day, but it is not time for those decisions - it is time to provide value, for free (and stars). And whatever gets removed instead of reworked, gets removed from both versions.
Because with Cloud, running bisibility becomes our job instead of yours: the scheduler that never sleeps, upgrades, backups, monitoring, security patches. You pay to not think about any of it. It is also what keeps the project alive - every Cloud subscription funds development of the open-source version.
