Backlink checker that analyses link profiles and finds new opportunities.
SEO SpyGlass is the backlink analysis app inside SEO PowerSuite, the desktop SEO bundle from Link-Assistant. It analyses your site's link profile and your competitors', using Link-Assistant's own index of trillions of links. It shows referring domains, anchor text, new and lost links over time, and a penalty-risk score for each link so you can spot toxic backlinks before they hurt rankings.
Key Features
- Backlink profile analysis for any site
- Penalty-risk scoring for toxic links
- New and lost link tracking over time
- Competitor backlink comparison
- Anchor text and referring domain reports
- Part of the four-app SEO PowerSuite bundle

How it works
The app is sold with the rest of SEO PowerSuite under one annual licence: a free edition for evaluation, and Professional at $349 a year for all four apps. Paid plans remove the backlink caps and add scheduled checks, project saving, and reporting. Individual apps can also be bought separately.
SEO SpyGlass is a good value choice for link builders who want unlimited backlink data without a big monthly subscription. The honest limitation is index depth — its database is smaller than the market leaders — so serious link research may still need a second source for verification.
