One bill, every tool

Most SEO suites sell you a base plan and then charge again for the parts you actually wanted: a content module here, extra projects there, an agency add-on for white-label reports. Cocolyze, a small French suite run by VSI Innovation SAS out of Valenciennes, builds its pitch on refusing to do that. Its pricing page says it flatly: "Each plan includes all SEO tools. Unlike our competitors, there are no hidden fees or additional modules charged."

What you get on every tier is daily Google rank tracking on desktop and mobile, a site crawler, a keyword suggestion tool, backlink data licensed from Majestic, competitor mapping and an SEO writing assistant. The plans differ only in how many projects, keywords, pages and seats they allow. That makes Cocolyze easy to budget and, at the agency end, cheap per site.

It also hides a good deal in the fine print, which is where most of this review spends its time.

Pricing and the sale that never ends

These are the live prices on the pricing page, checked on October 18, 2026. Annual billing knocks off the equivalent of two months, which the terms put at "approximately 16.6%".

Ranking history runs one year on Freelance, two on Ecommerce and five from Business up. Crawl allowances run from 20,000 pages per site on Freelance to 100,000 on Business and above. Report generation is capped per day: 25, 50 or 100 depending on plan. Agency plans add white-label exports. A Single Website plan also exists, shown only in a pop-up: $19.99 a month billed as $119.99 every six months, for one project and 50 keywords.

Each price sits next to a struck-through "was" figure ($99.99 for Freelance, $399.99 for Business) and an "On sale" countdown. Read the page script and the countdown is set to the moment you loaded the page plus 8.3 hours. Come back tomorrow and the sale ends 8.3 hours from then. The crossed-out prices are not former prices, and nothing about the offer is urgent.

Two smaller wrinkles. Cocolyze's own Semrush comparison page lists it at $99.99 a month for the same 5 projects and 500 keywords that the pricing table sells for $69.99, so the vendor does not keep its pages in step. And the dollar sign is filled in by JavaScript for logged-out visitors, while the card copy talks about "€1.9" per Ads click. The company is French; buyers in Europe should expect to be billed in euros. Plan cards also promise "(or more)" keywords, projects and users, but no add-on price is published anywhere.

Rank tracking: daily, deep, Google only

The rank tracker is the core of the product. Every plan checks positions daily, on desktop and mobile, in a choice of "45,000 locations across the world in more than 65 languages", with up to 20 competitors per project on the larger plans (5 on Freelance, 15 on Ecommerce). SERP feature tracking arrived in February 2021, and daily or weekly alerts flag movement. Freelance works out to about 10 cents per tracked keyword per month on annual billing; Agency125 gets that down to 7 cents.

How deep it looks depends on which Cocolyze page you trust. The standard pricing table says "Top 50 results"; the agency pricing page and the rank-tracker page say the top 100. If positions 51 to 100 matter to you, ask support which one your plan gets before paying.

The bigger limit is in the FAQ's definition of a keyword: a phrase "on Google or Google Mobile". There is no Bing, no YouTube, no Amazon. For most European sites Google is the market, so this is a smaller loss than it sounds, but an agency with a client selling on Amazon or targeting Bing-heavy audiences will need a second tool. AccuRanker and Nightwatch both track more than Google.

Keyword research, audits and backlinks

The keyword suggestion tool pitches itself against Google Keyword Planner's 2,000-result cap with the line "the Cocolyze keyword planner has no limits". The same page then advertises "reports with up to 3000 keyword suggestions". Three thousand is still more than you will read, but the database behind it is described only as "hundreds of millions of Google positions", far smaller than what Semrush or SE Ranking draw on. For long-tail work in a small French or Belgian niche, the gap may show up as thin or missing suggestions.

The site audit runs "+132 control checks", with a JavaScript crawler, instant rescans, sitemap analysis, duplicate-content detection and an internal PageRank view. The crawl allowance is pooled across your account: scanned pages "can be shared across all your projects", so one large client can eat the budget that five small ones would have used.

Backlink data comes from Majestic, which Cocolyze says it runs its own analysis on. The competitor map plots rival domains by referring domains against estimated SEO value, which is a quick way to see who you are actually up against for a set of keywords. There is no backlink outreach or link-building workflow on top.

The writing assistant

The writing assistant scores a draft against "the top 20 ranked pages on the chosen keyword" and lists terms and structure changes to close the gap. Content optimisation is unlimited on every plan, which is generous next to suites that meter it per document. It is a scoring editor, though, not a generator. The only AI claim on the site is that the assistant is "an AI intelligence capable of correcting any text", and there is no AI-search or LLM visibility tracking of the kind Nightwatch and AccuRanker have added.

The fine print you should read first

No signup was run for this review. What follows comes from Cocolyze's own terms and help centre, and it is the material that changes the buying decision.

The refund promise contradicts the terms. The pricing page says "You can ask for a full refund within the 30 first days of your subscription if you change your mind." The terms say "Cocolyze has a 48 hour refund policy", counted from the renewal of your subscription, and that cancellation "does not entitle the Customer to a refund under any circumstances." The help centre repeats the 48 hours. The terms are the contract, so plan around 48 hours and treat the 30 days as a nice surprise if it happens. Use the 14-day free trial (no card needed, one per person and company, with limited features) to decide instead.

Your data goes after a month. "If your account is inactive for one month, we will permanently delete all your data." Let a card expire or pause a client for a few weeks and up to five years of ranking history can disappear. A lapsed payment, even a short one, leaves a gap in the history. Deleting a single keyword also deletes its whole history, with no undo.

Leaving takes a survey. Cancellation is under Account, then Billing, then Cancel subscription, and the terms make a "compulsory survey" part of it. An email or a phone call does not count; the clause actually names "Site Analyzer", another product, which suggests the terms were copied rather than written. They also still price reports in credits, a system the changelog says was replaced by daily limits in June 2022.

Downgrades can cost you. Changes are pro-rated, but if your unused balance is worth more than the new plan's first invoice, "the remaining amount is lost." Downgrade at renewal, not mid-term.

Smaller things that add up. Payment is Visa, Mastercard or American Express only. Keywords used on a project someone shares with you count against the owner's quota. There is no public API; the only integration is a Looker Studio (formerly Data Studio) connector still labelled beta. And the public changelog, which starts with the beta ending in November 2018, stops at a benchmark tool added on September 18, 2024. That is two years without a listed product update.

The review footprint is thin too. G2 and Capterra each hold only a handful of reviews; the praise is for simplicity and the complaints are about price for startups, slow support and limited data. The agency page claims over 1,000 agencies use it daily, which is impossible to check.

Verdict: who should buy it, who should skip it

Buy Cocolyze if you are a freelancer or small agency tracking Google rankings for many sites, mostly in French or other European markets, and you want one flat bill with every tool included. At $249.99 a month billed yearly for 75 projects and 3,000 daily-tracked keywords, it costs about $3.33 per site, and white-label exports come with it. Keep your account active, export your history regularly and downgrade only at renewal.

Skip it if you need any engine besides Google, an API to pull data into your own dashboards, or a big keyword database for research. Skip it, too, if the 48-hour refund window makes you nervous. SE Ranking is the closest like-for-like swap, with a larger database, an API and an actively developed product. Semrush costs more (Cocolyze's own comparison puts it at $119.95 a month) but covers far more research data. Serpstat sits between the two on price.

Cocolyze is decent value with a quiet roadmap and terms that favour the vendor. Use the trial, and read the terms before you pay.
