• Can improve their algorithm to serve better for technical articles

Because, I've been using this tool since many years and I haven't looked for any other tool when it comes to content optimization

• allows to group keywords (by tags) and reports tags as a bunch of kws
• competition reporting (with keywords positions and rank tracking in time)
• SoV - share of voice - metric, that allows you to see true potential of your keywords
• search intent - identifies informational/navigational/commercial/transactional keywords (even in Polish!)
• integration with Google Analytics and Google Search Console gives more and more data that you may analyze

Semrush's content and page optimisation tool is quite poor; it's not in the same bracket as Surfer. Frase is a good alternative from a cost perspective (if not paying the AI writing functions), it's cheaper, and Frase's keyword/topic heatmaps are quite unique. Sufer has a better UI and a shorter learning curve. It has an advantage in that it offers internal linking recommendations, which Frase lacks. Surfer also has limited competitor analysis (backlinks and page speed), which Frase does not. Both tools allow you to choose the number of competitors on the SERPS

• + it was easier to see what competition is doing - you may see their "backstage"
• + easy way to monitor group of keywords (tagging) so no need to focus on particular keyword
• - takes some time to analyze whole domain
• - no whitelabel reports (it would save a lot of time)
