Seolly vs Mode

Seolly is an analytics dashboard that pulls read-only Google Search Console data into one place for agencies managing many sites. You connect your GSC properties, see clicks and impressions across every domain on a single overview page, and drill into popular, growing, or decaying pages without clicking through Google's interface. It shows the same underlying numbers as Search Console, not traffic estimates from third-party crawlers.

Rank trackers and all-in-one SEO suites store your performance data on their servers. Seolly markets a privacy-first model where it does not store or resell your GSC metrics, only the Google OAuth key needed to render dashboards until you revoke access. Branded keyword filtering and custom content groups are built for client reporting where you need to strip branded queries or compare landing page clusters quickly.

SEO agencies, consultants, and affiliates with multiple Search Console properties are the core audience. Teams that export CSV reports for clients benefit from unlimited exports and a Privacy Blur mode that hides URLs in screenshots. Lifetime pricing at $49.99 targets freelancers who want to avoid another monthly subscription.

Mode unites data teams and business teams around SQL, Python, R, and visual analysis in one workspace. Analysts run ad hoc queries, build interactive dashboards, and publish self-service reports without switching tools. The platform connects to major data warehouses and integrates with the dbt Semantic Layer for governed metrics across the organization.

Most BI tools force a choice between analyst-grade depth and business-user simplicity. Mode runs both on the same platform: data teams write SQL and Python notebooks while business users explore curated datasets through drag-and-drop dashboards. Reusable datasets, scheduled reports, and Slack sharing keep everyone on the same numbers without maintaining separate data models for each audience.

Mode targets data analysts, analytics engineers, and business intelligence teams at companies that have invested in a modern data stack. The free Studio plan supports up to 3 users with SQL, Python, and R at 10 MB per query. Pro and Enterprise tiers add 250 GB monthly compute, permissioning, API access, and visualization of tens of millions of rows.
