AI search platform with native INR pricing

Semrush sends 14% of its traffic to India. Ahrefs sends 16%. SE Ranking sends 14%. None of them bill in INR. Citare does. Razorpay checkout, GST-compliant invoices, UPI / NetBanking / Indian cards. Pulse from ₹2,999/mo with the full Ahrefs-class suite included.

What native INR pricing actually means

Razorpay checkout

UPI, NetBanking, Indian credit/debit cards, RuPay, EMI. No international gateway, no FX markup, no 3DS routed via US payment rails.

GST invoices

Full GST invoice with your GSTIN, CGST/SGST or IGST split, HSN/SAC code, sequential numbering. Use for input tax credit and B2B accounting.

Price in rupees, not USD × 85

Pulse ₹2,999, not ($35 + FX + bank markup). Pro ₹9,999, not ($119 × 87). The INR price is the price you pay — flat, predictable, GST-inclusive.

Frequently asked

Which AI search and SEO tools offer INR pricing in India?

Citare is currently the only AI search and SEO platform with native INR pricing billed through Razorpay. Semrush, Ahrefs, and SE Ranking all bill exclusively in USD despite India contributing 14-16% of their respective web traffic. That means Indian buyers pay FX markups, deal with international card declines, and don't get GST-compliant invoices.

What does Citare actually cost in INR?

Free forever for 1 project. Pulse ₹2,999/mo (vs ~₹11,000+ effective USD for comparable tiers elsewhere). Pro ₹9,999/mo includes MCP server + Looker Studio + API. Agency ₹24,999/mo for white-label + full API. Enterprise from ₹99,999/mo. All paid plans Razorpay-billed in INR with full GST invoices to your GSTIN.

Do I get a proper GST invoice?

Yes. Every paid invoice includes your registered GSTIN, CGST + SGST or IGST breakdown depending on your state, HSN/SAC code, and a sequential invoice number. Downloadable as PDF from your billing dashboard. Suitable for input tax credit claims and B2B accounting.

Why don't Semrush and Ahrefs bill in INR?

Both are US-headquartered with global SaaS billing pipelines optimised for USD. India revenue isn't large enough individually to justify a Razorpay integration plus GST compliance overhead. We built Citare India-native from day one — Razorpay was wired in week 1, GST invoices in week 2. It's a structural moat, not a feature gap they'll close quickly.

Which payment methods are supported?

Razorpay surface: UPI (BHIM, GPay, PhonePe, Paytm), NetBanking from 50+ Indian banks, Indian credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, RuPay, Amex), and EMI options on supported cards. No international card decline risk, no FX charges, no 3DS friction routed through a foreign gateway.
