The honest pitch
SEMrush is a Swiss army knife for digital marketing, keep it for the things it actually does. The "AI Toolkit" announcements are real but the live product is months away and historically beta-features ship with limited coverage. Truffle is purpose-built for AI visibility from day one. Layer it on top of SEMrush, link both into Looker Studio, ship one report.
"Our SEMrush dashboard tells us about Google. Our Truffle dashboard tells us about everything else customers actually use."
