Prices are monthly list prices on the plan closest to 30 articles a month for one site, taken from each tool’s pricing page; every page links its sources. Rankbox rows describe what ships today. Today articles reach your site through the Rankbox publishing API, which a developer sets up once, and one-click plugins for Shopify, WordPress, Webflow, Square, and Framer are in development.
