Choose Scalenut when you want keyword research bundled directly into the content editor — it's a 7-day trial with no permanent free plan, priced at $59/month (the plain list price; a promotional rate was obscuring the standard annual price at time of check); there's no API, and content stays inside the editor rather than exporting natively to Word or Docs.
