Mangools ships a self-serve REST API for its SEO suite: KWFinder keyword data, SERPChecker metrics, and SERPWatcher rank tracking. Tokens come with any subscription, but quotas are plan-tied and meaningful volume requires quote-based private API access via a contact form.
Mangools scores A on the API Report Card. Mangools ships a self-serve REST API for its SEO suite: KWFinder keyword data, SERPChecker metrics, and SERPWatcher rank tracking. Tokens come with any subscription, but quotas are plan-tied and meaningful volume requires quote-based private API access via a contact form.
Mangools has a workable official integration path. Most engineering teams can build against it directly. Open API: self-serve, documented, with SDKs
Mangools is a bootstrapped SEO software suite headquartered in Bratislava, Slovakia, founded in 2014 by Peter Hrbacik (often spelled Hrbáčik).
Vertical: misc (horizontal marketing tech / SEO software). Mangools does not map to any of Supergood's named vertical-SaaS categories, it is a horizontal data-and-tooling product sold across every industry that does SEO. Keyword research: lookups via KWFinder for search volume, keyword difficulty, CPC, related/long-tail suggestions, and trend data.
Mid-tier within SMB SEO tools.
Data flowing through Mangools on behalf of customers (and therefore relevant to any unified-API or data-egress story): Tracked domains and competitor domains the customer cares about. Tracked keyword sets (with locations, devices, languages, tags/groupings).
Founded 2014; rebranded to the unified Mangools suite in 2016.
API request quotas are tied to subscription tier and the limits on Basic/Premium are too low for production data pipelines. 'Private API access' (the only path to meaningful volume) requires a sales/contact-form flow with no public pricing, friction for engineering buyers. Full sourced list under Sources below.
Common alternatives include Ahrefs, Semrush, Moz Pro, SE Ranking, Serpstat, Sistrix. Graded alternatives appear under "More from the report card" below.
Grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? We check six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and roll them into a letter grade. Grades get re-verified, and they only move on evidence.
