SEOInputs vs Google Search Console
Google Search Console gives you the raw data. SEOInputs adds the intelligence layers that turn that data into rankings growth.
Why Teams Switch
The 3 biggest reasons SEO teams move from Google Search Console to SEOInputs
Content Decay Detection
GSC shows you current metrics. SEOInputs automatically detects pages losing traffic over 28-day windows — so you catch declines before they become crashes.
16 Months of History
GSC limits you to ~16 months in the UI and data can disappear. SEOInputs backfills and stores your complete history with sub-50ms query speed.
Automated Intelligence
Instead of manually scanning GSC reports, get cannibalization detection, striking distance opportunities, and AI-generated action items delivered automatically.
