Indexed.pro vs. IndexerNow: two non-subscription tools, compared
Indexed.pro and IndexerNow agree on something most of this market doesn't: you shouldn't need a monthly subscription to get your pages indexed. Both connect to your own Search Console, both sell credits rather than seats, and both are for sites you own — Indexed.pro is explicit that it can't index external backlinks, and neither can we, for the same reason. So this comparison is narrower than most: what the credits cover, and how long they last.

Frequently asked
Whose credits last longer?
Indexed.pro advertises credits that never expire, which is straightforwardly better than a deadline if you buy in bulk and publish irregularly. IndexerNow credits are valid 365 days. The offsetting piece is the free daily allowance: low-volume months on IndexerNow don't consume purchased credits at all, because the free credits spend first.
Can either index backlinks I don't own?
No, and for the same reason. Google's Indexing API only accepts URLs on properties verified in your own Search Console. Any tool built on the official API has this limit; tools that claim otherwise are using a different, unofficial mechanism.
