Swydo charges for data sources. DashThis charges for dashboards. Clearly charges a flat fee for the account. Most of what separates these three follows from that one difference.
The table sets them side by side on the things that usually decide it: what the bill is attached to, what you get without an add-on, and where each one stops.

What each one charges for
The same year of reporting, billed three different ways.
Figure 1. What your bill is attached to
The model is the durable part. The figures move.
Swydo
Scales by
Data sources
Ten clients on four platforms is forty sources, so thirty of them are billed on top of the base. The rate per source falls as the count rises.
DashThis
Scales by
Dashboards
A dashboard per client walks up the tier ladder: 3, then 10, then 25, then 50. Sources rise with each tier rather than being billed one by one.
Clearly
Scales by
Nothing
One account fee whatever you connect. The ceiling is what the six connectors cover, rather than what the plan permits.
Where each one fits
Each model is generous to one shape of customer and expensive for another.
Swydo
Many clients across many platforms, where unlimited users and full white-label delivery matter, and the source count is predictable enough to budget for.
DashThis
Teams who want dashboards assembled quickly. Every plan carries all integrations and white-label, so the tiers are about volume rather than features.
Clearly
One business rather than a roster, where the monthly report needs to explain itself to somebody who does not read analytics.
What Clearly does not do
The gaps are in breadth and agency machinery.
- Six connectors: GA4, Search Console, Google Ads, Meta Ads, LinkedIn Ads and Google Sheets. Swydo lists 32 or more and DashThis includes its full library on every plan.
- No client-user seats and no custom reporting domain. Sharing is a no-login link with per-report theming.
- No bulk operations across large numbers of reports.
- A fixed report structure. The pages are opinionated rather than a blank canvas, so an unusual layout is not available.
Questions worth answering first
These four narrow it faster than a trial does.
-
1
How many data sources will you connect?
Clients multiplied by platforms. That product is what a per-source bill is built on.
-
2
How many separate dashboards do you need?
One per client is a different question from one for the business, and it is the axis a per-dashboard ladder prices.
-
3
Which platforms have to appear?
Checking your list against each connector library eliminates options in two minutes.
-
4
Who reads the finished report?
An analyst and an owner want different things: one wants a flexible canvas, the other wants the report to say what changed.
The short version
These three are priced for different shapes of business. Swydo suits breadth of platforms, DashThis suits volume of dashboards, and Clearly suits a single business whose source count would otherwise be the variable in the bill.
All three now include AI summaries, so that is no longer what separates them. What differs is how the summary is produced: Clearly computes its candidate factors in code and the model only ranks and narrates them, citing supplied numbers rather than generating any.
In Clearly: the free tier is a real report rather than a time-limited trial. Connect Search Console and GA4, pick a goal, and see whether the result reads like something you would forward.
