Not a fan, close to Yoast but not there

I wanted to love. I maxed out the number of codes and bought the max - but got a refund. I thought I’d be greeted by a smart AI assistant that would take me by the hand and guide me through SEO optimization with point and click options and suggestions. Something that would clearly tell me what keywords to target, give me an honest assessment of my content, and hand over a prioritized, actionable task list that I could implement without headaches.

Instead the interface seems broken apart and clunky. I am a seasoned agency that knows SEO! And I felt stupid using this product.

1. Just not as seamlessly integrated as yoast.

2. I didn't find it doing anything special that free yoast Seo would do. It said keyword research and such...but nothing I couldn't do a million other places free. The AI would 'suggest' stuff but not even take me to a particular page to do that even when it was a suggestion on a focus page.

3. I was only allowed 10 focus pages per site. Now, it allows agency like setup and I could do 10 sites with 10 pages each, but I wanted 1 site with 100 pages. I didn't want to use as an agency.

Some of the feedback on other reviews is that it is a complex tool. I didn't find it to be complex at all. I tried to force and find all the best options and ways to use and just found it to take more time than the value it gave back.
