* Cookiebot pricing varies by pageviews and auto-renews at higher rates
The key differences that matter for engineering teams
Cookiebot's "$8/mo" quickly becomes $20+/mo when you hit pageview limits. CookieGuard's $29/mo is exactly that — $29/mo. Forever.
CookieGuard has native GitHub Action and REST API. Run compliance scans automatically in your deployment pipeline. Cookiebot? Manual setup only.
Our proprietary crawler scans your entire site in 30 seconds. Cookiebot takes 2-5 minutes — per page. For a 50-page site, that's 2+ hours.
One script tag. Clear API docs. Webhooks. Built by engineers who actually use this stuff. No "contact sales" to get basic features.
