Free vs paid results

Stored review text and ratings remain available on Free. This tool does not return revenue estimates or keyword demand scores.

Paid access does not fill coverage gaps or unknown values. Returned plan metadata and lock notes explain redaction where applicable. Read the full Free data policy.
