$279 a year
- Free
- Up to 500 URLs

Checked on 4 October 2026 against Screaming Frog’s own pricing and features pages. Prices change, so check theirs before you buy.
Which one should you pick?
Pick SEOSage if you…
- Want a simple screenOne dashboard shows what to fix first, and every issue says why it matters and how to fix it. Screaming Frog’s screen is dense and takes time to learn (our view, so try both).
- Send clients branded reportsPowerPoint and PDF with your logo and colours. Not listed by Screaming Frog.
- Want a weekly list of what to fixA to-do list built from your crawl, plus a Traffic page that shows which problems cost real visitors.
- Want Claude to run and fix itClaude can start the audit and read every issue. Give it access to your site, for example in Claude Code, and it can fix them too.
- Prefer a lower price$149 a year, or $19 a month with no yearly commitment.
Pick Screaming Frog if you…
- Use Linux, or want a free versionIt runs on Linux, and the free version crawls up to 500 URLs.
- Need the deepest specialist checksFull WCAG accessibility audits, grammar in 25+ languages, XPath, and your own AI prompts on every page. SEOSage has basic or different versions of these.
Why people look for a Screaming Frog alternative
- The price. Screaming Frog costs $279 a year. SEOSage is $149 a year, or $19 a month.
- The screen. Screaming Frog shows a crawl as many tabs and tables with a lot of settings. That depth helps if you live in it every day. SEOSage opens on what to fix first and explains each issue in plain English. This is our view, so try both on one of your sites.
- Client reports. SEOSage turns a crawl into a PowerPoint or PDF with your own logo and colours. We could not find this on Screaming Frog’s features page.
SEOSage is not a copy of Screaming Frog. It does not run on Linux, has no free version beyond the 14-day trial, and its accessibility and spelling checks are simpler. The table below shows every difference.

Questions about SEOSage and Screaming Frog
Is SEOSage a good alternative to Screaming Frog?
It is if you want a simpler screen, client-ready reports with your own logo, and a lower price. Both crawl your whole site from your own computer. Screaming Frog is ahead on Linux support, a free version, full accessibility audits, grammar checks in many languages and XPath.
Is there a free alternative to Screaming Frog?
Screaming Frog has its own free version, limited to 500 URLs. SEOSage is not free, but you can try every feature for 14 days.
How much does SEOSage cost compared with Screaming Frog?
SEOSage costs $19 a month or $149 a year. Screaming Frog costs $279 a year, checked on its pricing page on 4 October 2026.
Does SEOSage have a page limit?
No. There is no page limit and no limit on the number of websites. Very large sites take longer and use more memory on your computer.
Can SEOSage do everything Screaming Frog does?
No. SEOSage does not run on Linux, has no grammar check, has only basic accessibility checks and does not read XPath. It adds branded reports, a weekly to-do list and a Claude connector.
Can Claude fix the problems SEOSage finds?
SEOSage itself only audits your site. But Claude can start an audit through the SEOSage connector and read each issue with how to fix it. If you also give Claude access to your site, for example in Claude Code, it can make the fixes for you.
Which is easier to use?
We think SEOSage is easier: it opens on a dashboard of what to fix first and explains each issue in plain English. Screaming Frog shows many tabs and tables and takes longer to learn. That is our opinion, so try both on one of your sites.
