Why switch from Semrush to Hyax
Cheaper than entry Semrush
Semrush’s starter tier is about $130/mo before add-ons. Hyax is $29/mo with SEO workflows, AI guidance, and the CMS that ships the content—not just audits in another tab.
SEO + publishing, one login
Semrush spans ads, social, and SEO for marketers. Hyax focuses on creators: turn keyword data into drafted posts, fixes, and email campaigns without exporting CSVs.
Predictable as you grow
Enterprise marketing suites ratchet price with limits and seats. Hyax’s flat platform fee keeps your stack predictable while subscribers scale.
