Check Your Website vs Rankability
This is the closest comparison in the market, so we will be precise instead of flattering ourselves.
Rankability runs the same shape of loop we do: audit, prioritised fixes, and a comparison against a new crawl. If you are a team with an SEO programme, they may well be the better answer. Here is how to tell.
The short version
Rankability's AI search readiness auditor takes a whole site, a sitemap or a list of URLs. It shows evidence for bot access, structure and schema, describes verification of fixes by comparing against a previous crawl, includes prioritised recommendations, an assistant called Serena, and publishing into WordPress, Webflow or a GitHub pull request. Plans run $99 Starter, $199 Core, $399 Team.
Check Your Website takes one exact public URL. Nine scored areas, the evidence behind every score, a roadmap of small changes ordered by how much score each can still win — split into what you can publish yourself and what needs a developer — and a verify step that re-runs the specific check your change depended on and records fixed, improved or still failing, with the score before and after.
Same loop. Different scale, different user, different price.

What Rankability is genuinely good at
Breadth and maturity. A site-wide crawl, depth of evidence, publishing workflows straight into your CMS or a GitHub PR, a tracker, and an assistant to explain findings — this is a complete product with real engineering behind it, built for people who manage sites for a living.
If you manage more than a handful of sites, or you have a developer in the room, Rankability does things we do not do and are not planning to do.
What we do differently
One page, finished, instead of a site, surveyed. A site-wide audit produces a long list. For someone without an SEO team, a long list is where the project dies. We give you one page and one change at a time, in an order that reflects how much score each one can still win.
We tell you which fixes are yours. Every roadmap is split into what you can publish yourself and what needs a developer. If you do not write code, you can still act today instead of putting the whole thing in a ticket.
Verification is a specific test, not a fresh crawl. Comparing two crawls tells you what the site looks like now. We re-run the exact check your change depended on and tell you whether that change worked: fixed, improved or still failing, with the score before and after.
Deterministic scoring. The same page state always produces the same score. When the number moves, the page moved. You can hand that comparison to a client or a manager and defend it.
We never edit your site. No CMS connection, no plugin, no access to anything. You publish, we re-check the public page.
Free to start. No card, no trial clock, no signup for the first check.
Which one should you pick
Pick Rankability if you run SEO as a programme, you manage many pages or many clients, you want publishing workflows into your CMS, and $99/month is a normal tool cost for you.
Pick Check Your Website if you have one page that matters, no SEO team, and no interest in learning a platform — and you want to know exactly what to change and whether it worked.
We do not claim to be the bigger product. We claim to be the right size for a person, not a programme.
What we do not claim
We do not crawl your whole site. We do not publish changes for you. We are not a ranking report, we do not monitor brand mentions, and we promise no rankings, traffic or AI citations. One exact public URL per run.
