Your own keys (BYOK)
Bring your own key (BYOK): connect API keys from your own provider accounts. Providers bill you directly, and bisibility adds no markup to that usage.
Explore BYOKRun bisibility on your own infrastructure.
Keep the installation and your research history on infrastructure you control.
Who it is for
- You are comfortable running Docker, PostgreSQL and backups.
- You want the application and its database on infrastructure you control.
- You want to inspect or modify the open-source code.
What this gives you
Keep saved research and ranking history in your own database, under your own retention rules.
Decide where the application runs and who can reach it.
Choose your provider accounts and checking schedules, so you control data spend.
What you pay for
- Software: no license fee. The open-source application is free under AGPL-3.0; Cloud credits are not part of self-hosting.
- Infrastructure: you pay for hosting, storage and optional services such as email delivery. Prices depend on your setup.
- Maintenance: you are responsible for updates, backups and availability. Scheduled checks also need the worker and Temporal.
- Provider data: research and rank checks use your own provider accounts, billed directly by each provider. Requests to providers leave your server.
From your server to a working SEO routine
Set up your instance
Follow the production self-hosting guide to configure the application, database, secrets and backups.
Connect the data you need
Add a supported provider account and set a budget. Choose coverage for your competitor research and rank checks.
Research, save, then track
Build a shortlist of keyword ideas. When you publish a page, add its keywords to tracking and review the ranking history.
Before you choose
What am I responsible for?
Running the instance: hosting, configuration, updates, backups, security and availability. Scheduled checks also need the worker and Temporal.
What does it cost?
The software has no license fee under AGPL-3.0. You pay for your infrastructure, your maintenance time and the provider API usage your research and rank checks need.
Does my data stay on my server?
Your database, saved research and ranking history stay on your infrastructure. Research and rank checks call external providers, so those requests and their parameters leave your server.
How do I install it?
Follow the self-hosting guide in the documentation. It covers Docker setup, configuration, secrets and backups. You can evaluate the local demo with synthetic data before connecting a provider.
Find the right setup for you
BYOK and Credits share one Cloud subscription. You can use your own keys, credits, or both in the same account. Self-hosting runs on your infrastructure with your own provider keys.
Credits
Start research without opening your own provider accounts. Paid operations use prepaid credits, and you see the estimated cost before you run them.
