# SEO tools for in-house teams, itemised

> An itemised month instead of an allowance nobody can explain. What a single-domain team spends, and what netweft does not offer procurement.

netweft is an SEO tool for in-house teams whose spend has to be itemised: every paid lookup is priced before it runs. An in-house team's constraint is rarely the work — it is explaining the tooling spend to somebody who does not do the work. A subscription that includes an allowance nobody can itemise is hard to defend. A ledger of operations, each with a unit count and a price, is not.

## Who this is

A small team inside a larger company, where the SEO tool is a line in somebody else's budget and gets looked at once a year.

## The month is a list of rows

Every paid operation reserves credits at a named price before it runs and settles against what the vendor actually charged. The month is therefore a list of rows, each with a unit count, rather than a percentage of an allowance.

## No overage, only refusal

A workspace out of credits is refused before the money is spent, with the shortfall named. Nobody discovers an overage on an invoice, because there is no overage — there is a refusal.

## Roles that survive a reorganisation

Owners, admins and members, with nobody able to act on a peer. An admin cannot demote another admin, which is the property you want when the team changes and the workspace does not.

## What a month costs

Unit counts are stated; per-unit prices are the live rate card the API reserves against.

| Operation | Units | Credits |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Scheduled rank checks | ×800 results pages: 400 keyword checks read to the top 20 | 16,000 |
| Monthly audit | ×500 crawled pages | 500 |
| Keyword research | ×500 keywords | 720 |
| Assistant questions | ×10 turns, at the per-turn ceiling | 2,230 |
| **Total** | | **19,450** |

That is 16% of Pro's 125,000 credits a period, at $50 a month.

## What netweft will not do

One workspace, one subscription, and no per-seat pricing to negotiate — but also no SSO beyond Google and GitHub, no SAML and no procurement-grade contract. Sign-in is Google, GitHub or an email and a password.
