Linkagent vs LinkBoss

Linkagent crawls websites to identify missing internal links and add links after users approve them. Links can be delivered through a script, WordPress plugin, or JSON API. Its analysis reads a sitemap and maps topics, clusters, orphan pages, click depth, and the in-text link graph. Suggested anchor phrases come from existing page copy, and optional AI review checks them against their original sentence. Crawling, clustering, scoring, and anchor selection work without an AI key; a Claude API key enables additional review. Users approve or reject suggestions, and those decisions persist across re-crawls. Suggestions are balanced at roughly one new link per 250 words, with limits on new inbound links and repeated anchor use. The asynchronous embed script is about 2 KB and wraps existing text without adding or moving page content. Linkagent supports WordPress, Next.js, Shopify, Webflow, and other CMSs. Self-hosting keeps content, link graphs, and review decisions in the user's own Postgres database. Self-hosting costs nothing and requires your infrastructure; hosted plans start at $29 a month.
