The Mangools alternative
with the audit built in.
Mangools nails keyword research and does it with a lovely interface. UtilitySEO covers that ground and adds the technical audit, the ranked fix list and the AI-visibility tracking in the same subscription.

“Finally an SEO tool that just tells me what to fix, no manual, no jargon, no learning curve.”
UtilitySEO vs Mangools
An honest comparison, including the things Mangools still does better.
Mangools pricing and features as published at the time of writing. We keep this current, tell us if anything looks out of date.
Who should switch from Mangools, and who shouldn't
Mangools has one of the nicest interfaces in SEO, and KWFinder is a genuinely pleasant way to do keyword research. At $29/mo entry it is also cheaper than we are.
Where it stops is the site itself. Mangools will help you choose what to target; it will not crawl 100+ ranking factors, hand you an impact-ranked list of what to fix first, or show you whether AI assistants mention your brand.
Switch to UtilitySEO if…
- You want the audit and the keyword work in one subscription
- You need to know what to fix first, in plain English
- AI visibility across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Grok matters to you
- You would rather have everything unlocked than manage plan limits
Stay on Mangools if…
- Keyword research is the job and you love the interface, it is excellent
- $29/mo versus £48/mo is the deciding number
- You do not need technical auditing or AI-visibility tracking
Mangools is a good tool. If keyword research is all you do, it is the cheaper answer.

Loved by teams that rank
So much cheaper than my previous software whilst also offering far more insight into my issues and industry keywords. Highly recommended.
UtilitySEO doesn't overwhelm you with useless data. Easy to use and makes tracking my info so much better.
Finally an SEO tool that actually tells me what to fix next instead of dumping a 400-row CSV on me.
Simple pricing
Every tool unlocked on every plan. You only pay for scale, seats, projects and usage.
