A: Hi,

All three markets work with real localized data. Specifics on each part of your question - Per-country DataForSEO queries. When you set the map's country, every DataForSEO call uses that country's location code..

Spain - location 2724, language es
Portugal - location 2620, language pt (Portuguese - Portugal)
Brazil - location 2076, language pt (Portuguese - Brasil)
Cache keys are locale-suffixed too, so a Spain query never returns US-cached numbers. Volume and difficulty. Both are pulled live for the country you set.

Search volume from Google Ads via DataForSEO
Keyword difficulty from DataForSEO Labs (bulk keyword difficulty endpoint)
Same country/language params on both calls
There's a three-tier fallback for volume when Google Ads has no data for a keyword, Google Ads - DataForSEO Clickstream - Ahrefs (if you bring your own Ahrefs API key). This matters for your markets because Google Ads coverage is thinner outside the US - Spain and Brazil have solid coverage, Portugal is the thinnest, and the clickstream/Ahrefs tiers fill the gaps especially well for long-tail Portuguese terms. Long-tail keywords in the right language. The keyword generation is constrained to produce 3-7 word long-tail queries (questions, how-tos, comparisons). For non-English maps, the prompt explicitly requires every keyword to be in the target language - so a Spain map returns Spanish queries, a Brazil map returns Brazilian Portuguese, not translated English. Best volume/difficulty ratio selection. There's an opportunity score that combines normalized volume and inverse competition (60/40 weighting), with "high opportunity" flagged at 70+. You can sort and filter keyword lists by this score, and the Quick Insights panel surfaces the top opportunities directly. The opportunity sort is a view you toggle, not the default order on every keyword list. Related keywords come back ordered by AI relevance score first. If you want the highest-opportunity keywords surfaced, use the "sort by opportunity" control or check the Quick Insights panel. If you'd prefer opportunity-sorted as the default everywhere, let me know - it's a UX preference I can take seriously. Happy to walk through a Spain or Brazil test map together if it'd help you validate the data quality before you commit to bulk usage.

Best,
Megan
