AI visibility — pay per question
$0.10 per question (excl. VAT), 3–10 questions per run. Available on every plan, including Free. If the AI cannot answer a single question in a run, the whole run is refunded to your balance.
How it works →Prepaid balance, topped up with PayPal
Top up from $10. Each top-up is invoiced for the exact amount you pay (VAT 10% included); paying for a plan or a run from your balance is not invoiced again. Top-ups cannot be withdrawn or refunded as cash; every refund goes back to your balance.
Terms →Example: a $10 top-up adds $10.00 to your balance; with VAT 10% the PayPal charge is $11.11. Enough for two months of Starter.
When a plan expires your data stays; the account drops to Free (the first domain you added is checked weekly, other domains pause until you renew).
Questions
How do payments work?
DeskSEO uses a prepaid balance in US dollars, topped up with PayPal from $10. Listed prices exclude VAT; VAT 10% is added at top-up. Each top-up is invoiced for the exact amount you pay (VAT included); using your balance for a plan or an AI visibility run is not invoiced again. Top-ups cannot be withdrawn or refunded as cash; every refund goes back to your balance.
Is there a free plan?
Yes: one domain, a weekly check, email alerts when the score drops, and the last 28 days of Search Console with the top 50 queries. The one-off SEO checker and AI bot checker are free without an account.
