Why ShipReady wins vs SE Ranking
Security audits SE Ranking doesn't have — CSP, HSTS, SSL Labs TLS grading, cookie security flags, and 15+ more HTTP security checks.
AI visibility depth — per-bot access validation (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot), llms.txt, trust signals. SE Ranking's AI toolkit doesn't include llms.txt or per-bot checks.
AI fix prompts — every issue comes with a ready-to-paste prompt for Cursor, Claude Code, or Windsurf. SE Ranking shows problems but not how to fix them in code.

Common questions about ShipReady vs SE Ranking
Does SE Ranking cover AI visibility?
SE Ranking has an AI Search Toolkit add-on that monitors brand mentions in ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity. However it doesn't check llms.txt files, per-bot crawler access rules, or trust signals like G2 and GitHub. ShipReady covers all of these in the base plan.
What's the key difference for developers?
ShipReady generates AI fix prompts for every issue — ready to paste into Cursor, Claude Code, or Windsurf. SE Ranking identifies problems but doesn't provide code-ready fixes. ShipReady also includes security audits (CSP, HSTS, SSL) that SE Ranking lacks entirely.
