Is there a free Surfer SEO alternative?

looot has no monthly seat. You pay per call to the provider you pick, and the catalog shows each endpoint's price before you run it. Whether that comes out cheaper than Surfer SEO depends on your volume.

What does Surfer SEO cost?

List prices change, so check Surfer SEO's own pricing page. This page does not repeat them. The looot side is read live from the catalog on the web version of this page.

What is a good Surfer SEO alternative for an AI agent?

An agent with a looot connection can call the providers behind Surfer SEO's data jobs directly. The providers used here are dataforseo, searchapi-io.

Which Surfer SEO features does looot not cover?

Not covered: content editor, content score, plagiarism check, site audit. Keep Surfer SEO for those, or use another tool beside looot.

How do I replace Surfer SEO with looot?

Paste the agent prompt on this page into your coding agent. It sets up looot, finds the endpoints for each job and runs them. You can edit the prompt to match your own inputs.

Do I need a Surfer SEO account to use looot?

No. looot calls its own providers and does not connect to your Surfer SEO account. Your existing Surfer SEO data stays where it is.

Ask your agent

Paste one prompt to replace Surfer SEO

Your agent reads the looot setup file once, then runs the jobs below and shows each price first.

Prompt to replace Surfer SEO

Use looot to fetch the top 10 ranking pages for a keyword I give you, extract their headings and common terms, and outline a draft that covers them. If you have not yet, set up https://looot.ai/skill.md first. Then search the looot catalog for each step, check the price of each endpoint before you call it, run the cheapest one that fits, and show me the results as a table.

Setup

One prompt, one price, one ledger

The same three steps every looot agent follows.
