02 / Position

The other platforms were built to show you data. Strata was built so you can ship decisions.

Every surface ends in a next action — an export, a brief, a ticket, a redirect plan — not another chart you need an analyst to translate.

Crawl freshness, 15 minutes

Our crawlers recrawl the top 50M pages every 15 minutes. You see movement before your competitors do.

Clickstream + panel data

Volume estimates triangulated from three independent sources, not a single API. You can audit the inputs.

Actionable diffs, not dumps

Site Audit output is a changeset your engineers can merge — ordered by traffic impact, with the patch.

Own your data

Every workspace exports to Parquet, BigQuery, and Snowflake. Your organic research is not locked in our UI.

03 / In the product

Research that reads like a brief.

Keywords Explorer doesn't stop at volume. Every row carries intent classification, SERP feature history, and the last time a new page entered the top ten — so your content team knows what to build and what to skip.

Parent-topic clustering (no manual grouping)

04 / Operators

Used by in-house teams, agencies, and the operators their boards brought in to turn things around.

"We killed three dashboards and a weekly analyst standup after the migration. The exec team finally reads the report."
Nadia Rahman · VP Growth, Helios Media
"Strata's site audit caught a hreflang loop that had been dragging EU organic for nine months. Fix shipped in an afternoon."
Thomas Bauer · Head of SEO, Meridian Labs
"The unified index is what sold us. Keyword research, backlinks, and crawl pull from the same data — no more reconciliation tickets."

05 / Questions

Everything teams ask before switching to Strata.

What is Strata?

Strata is an all-in-one SEO intelligence platform that combines a backlink index, keyword research, daily rank tracker, technical site audit, content explorer, privacy-first web analytics, and an AI content helper into a single tool. It is designed as a modern alternative to Ahrefs and Semrush, priced from $89/month with no per-row credits.

Is Strata an Ahrefs alternative?

Yes. Strata covers the same core surfaces as Ahrefs — Site Explorer (backlink graph, organic traffic, top pages), Keywords Explorer, Rank Tracker, Site Audit, and Content Explorer — and adds privacy-first web analytics and a grounded AI content helper. Pricing starts at $89/month versus Ahrefs Lite at $129/month, and every plan ships the full product with hard caps instead of a credit pool.

How is Strata different from Semrush?

Semrush charges per seat and meters most surfaces with credits that can run out mid-research. Strata uses transparent monthly hard caps (projects, tracked keywords, audit pages, backlink rows, AI generations) on every plan, includes unlimited team members starting on the Team plan, and ships the same product on every tier — no feature gating between Lite and Business.

How much does Strata cost?

Strata has four plans. Lite is $89/month for solo operators. Team is $219/month for small teams with 5 seats. Business is $529/month for agencies and in-house teams with 15 seats. Enterprise is custom-priced and includes SSO, SCIM, data residency, and a 99.95% SLA. Annual billing saves 12%. The first 800 subscribers can claim a permanent monthly discount through the presale.

Does Strata offer a free trial?

Yes. Every Strata plan includes a 14-day free trial with full product access. No credit card is required to start. The first crawl completes in under two minutes.

Which countries and languages does Strata support?

Strata tracks rankings in 170 markets and 200+ languages. Keyword volumes, SERP features, and rank tracking work across desktop and mobile, including localized SERPs (Google country versions, Bing, and YouTube on Business plans).

Does Strata have a free SEO checker?

Yes. Strata offers six free tools that require no sign-up: a backlink checker, keyword generator, SERP checker, domain authority checker, broken link checker, and keyword difficulty checker. They are powered by the same 412-billion-page index that fuels the paid product.

Is Strata GDPR-compliant?

Yes. Strata Web Analytics is cookieless and GDPR-safe by default, with no IP storage and no sampling. The platform is SOC 2 Type II audited, and Enterprise plans add regional data residency in EU, US, and APAC.
