*** CONFLICT RESOLVED 2026-09-17 (daily refresh) — IN FAVOUR OF OUR STORED VALUES. NO CHANGE NEEDED. *** The annual-column dispute open since 2026-08-29 and reproduced on 2026-09-07 is now settled. Our stored annual figures were right all along. THE DECIDING EVIDENCE, new this run: a source gave the full annual CONTRACT TOTALS rather than a per-month figure in isolation — Basic $348/yr, Pro + AI $1,068/yr, Team $2,244/yr. Divided by 12 those are exactly $29.00, $89.00 and $187.00: our three stored annual values, to the cent, across all three tiers simultaneously. Every previous run had only ever seen a single annual figure quoted alone, which is why the 2-source bar could not be cleared twice running. Monthly prices also re-confirmed again this run (Basic $39, Pro + AI $119, Team $249) — those were never in doubt. WHY THE $33 CLAIM LOSES: the same source cluster that puts Basic annual at $33 ($396/yr) states the annual discount is a flat 25%, yet its own Basic figure implies only 15.4% — self-contradictory on the very rule it asserts. It also quotes a 'Professional $79 -> $59' tier that does not exist in SpyFu's current lineup, almost certainly a stale pre-AI-rebrand Pro price, which undermines its whole annual breakdown. Meanwhile our stored column is a clean 25% off every tier (39 -> 29.25, 119 -> 89.25, 249 -> 186.75, rounding to 29 / 89 / 187) and now matches independently-sourced contract totals. An internally coherent reading corroborated by annual totals beats a self-inconsistent one. THE 2026-08-29 / 2026-09-07 'NEEDS MANUAL CHECK' FLAG ON THE ANNUAL COLUMN IS CLEARED. No manual pass is required for pricing on this record. STILL UNTRACKED, worth adding on a future pass (consistent across all three runs, so not in doubt): additional user seats at $15/user/mo on Basic and $30/user/mo on Pro and Team. We do not model per-seat add-ons on this record at all, and for an agency tool that is a real gap in the displayed cost. 30-day money-back guarantee re-confirmed; limited free searches without an account. Status stays Auto-Verified. No snapshot written — nothing moved; this run confirmed stored data rather than changing it. --- PRIOR HISTORY (condensed) --- Competitor-focused SEO/PPC research — rivals' keywords, ad history, rankings. Basic $39/mo monthly, $29/mo billed annually. Pro + AI $119/mo monthly ($59 promo first month), $89/mo annually. Team $249/$187. Annual rate on Pro + AI first confirmed 2026-08-12. 2026-08-29: annual rates called into question. Monthly prices solid across sources; annual column disputed by one tracker claiming a flat 25% off with Basic at $33/mo ($396/yr) plus a 'Professional $79 -> $59' tier matching nothing we track. Nothing changed — evidence did not clear the 2-source bar and the delta (29 -> 33, +13.8%) was below the 30% sanity threshold either way. Team annual $187/mo was independently corroborated at $2,244/yr even then, which in hindsight was the first piece of the answer. 2026-09-07: the conflict reproduced exactly, with no new evidence in either direction. Deliberately NOT escalated to Under Investigation — no new information, no threshold breach, and the balance of evidence already leaned toward our stored value. One source also stated SpyFu pricing 'has remained relatively stable through 2025 and 2026', arguing our $29 was not a stale figure that had quietly moved. That judgment call is now vindicated: escalating would have flagged a correct record as suspect for ten days.
