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 Knowatoa
Knowatoa's own pricing page is documented as short and limited in publicly stated detail, which means prospective buyers researching feature depth (like exact engine coverage or historical data retention) often can't get clear answers without contacting the vendor directly.
Because Knowatoa doesn't publish rank tracking, keyword research, backlink, or site audit features, teams that want a single tool covering both traditional SEO and AI visibility find it only covers one half of that need.
