Textmetrics
Useful on-page SEO/content analysis, but no broad SEO research database is documented.

Market proof
Estimated customer or user scale based on public claims, with source claims stored separately for auditability.

Named customer logos show real adoption, but the official site does not publish a numeric customer or user total.
The homepage displays named logos including Allianz, Otto, Reitmans, Record TV, Fox Sports, Randstad, IGN, Mashable, and Christie's: https://semji.com/
