Why teams switch

Why teams pick CrawlSense over Sitebulb

Sitebulb is a great technical audit tool. CrawlSense covers technical, semantic and AI search in one place.

Semantic + technical in one place

Sitebulb is great at the audit. CrawlSense layers semantic clusters and GEO on top — so you fix crawl issues and understand topical structure in the same workflow.

AI-native

Insights, narratives and pillar strategy generated by Claude. Sitebulb doesn't offer this — you get a report you still have to interpret yourself.

Future-proofed for AI search

GEO score across AI Crawlability, structured data, answer-friendly content, authority and structure. Sitebulb has no GEO analysis.

FAQ

Switching from Sitebulb — common questions

Do you offer visual crawl maps like Sitebulb?

Not yet — visual crawl maps are on our roadmap. What we offer today instead: cluster diagrams that show how your content groups by topic, and internal authority distribution via PageRank-style scoring so you can spot orphan pages and over/under-linked sections at a glance.

Can I export to Excel / CSV?

Yes — every table view in CrawlSense supports CSV export. Audit findings, clusters, cannibalization pairs, GEO breakdowns and entity tables can all be exported for spreadsheet workflows or client delivery.

Is the report branded for client deliverables?

Yes on Pro+ plans. White-label PDFs let you replace the CrawlSense logo with your agency's branding so you can hand the audit directly to a client without rework.

How does pricing compare with Sitebulb?

Honestly: similar entry price (CrawlSense from €59/mo vs Sitebulb from £30/mo) but roughly 2x more features for the money — semantic clustering, GEO analysis and Claude-powered AI Insights are all included, and there are no separate add-ons.
