Our take
Rank Math is worth comparing when the team wants SEO guidance and controls directly inside WordPress.

Rank Math is most relevant for teams running WordPress sites that need SEO controls inside the publishing workflow. It can help with metadata, schema, sitemaps, content checks, redirects, internal links, or related on-site SEO tasks depending on the plan and add-ons.
