How it works
You pay per check. Here is the math.
One check is one keyword, in one location, on one device. Your frequency turns that into runs per month, and checks are the only unit your provider bills. The numbers below are the selections you made above.

Scheduled checks pause on their own once monthly provider spend hits your project cap.
Pricing models
Pay-as-you-go vs subscription plans
SERP provider pricing usually falls into one of two shapes: every check has a unit cost, or a monthly plan includes a search allowance.
| Model | Example | Cost basis | Tradeoff |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pay-as-you-go per check | DataForSEO | Each check is priced by the provider pages its depth needs. | Follows actual volume, with no plan step-up. |
| Subscription plan | SerpApi | A monthly plan includes a fixed number of searches. | Predictable, but cost per check jumps at each threshold. |
Frequently asked questions
Short answers about provider pricing, check volume, and spend control.
What you pay, and to whom
Is bisibility itself free?
Self-hosted, yes: bisibility is open source under the AGPL. The cloud version is free during the open beta and will be priced after it. Either way you use your own provider keys and pay the provider directly. This calculator estimates that provider spend only.
What is the difference between pay-as-you-go and subscription SERP pricing?
Pay-as-you-go pricing charges a unit rate for each check you run. Subscription pricing charges for a monthly plan that includes a search allowance, so cost changes when your usage crosses plan thresholds.
Run it your way.
Cloud (free in beta) or self-hosted under AGPL. Both run on your own provider keys, so the provider bills you directly. Every check records what it cost.
