A dot means the vendor does not document that capability publicly, not that the answer is no. Historical data is Search Console retention in months.
Why teams leave Keyword.com
Keyword.com is API- and white-label-first, which suits agencies reselling rank tracking under their own brand, but smaller teams that don't need white-label reports or an API often feel they're paying for infrastructure they won't use.
Teams focused purely on AI-answer visibility also find Keyword.com's core strength — precise, granular rank tracking with MCP and API access — doesn't extend to citation tracking across chat engines, pushing them to add a separate tool for that coverage.
