Screpy vs Treo in 2026: An all-in-one budget dashboard vs a dedicated Core Web Vitals specialist
Screpy treats Core Web Vitals as one of five bundled features for $10 a month. Treo tracks nothing else, but backs its numbers with real Chrome UX Report field data, competitive benchmarking, and an API that Screpy does not have.
Screpy
Treo- Treo uses real Chrome UX Report (CrUX) field data reflecting actual user experience; Screpy reports Lighthouse-based lab scores only, with no field data component.
- Screpy bundles Core Web Vitals with a site audit, rank tracker, and uptime monitor for $10/month; Treo covers performance only, and its first paid tier costs $75/month.
- Treo offers API access from its $75/month Vital plan up; Screpy has no API on any of its three plans.
- Treo supports competitive Core Web Vitals benchmarking against competitor domains; Screpy's competitor tracking (Pro tier and up) is for keyword rank comparison, not performance data.
- Treo automatically discovers URLs via sitemap scanning, with no manual list-building required; Screpy's audit crawler requires you to point it at a project rather than auto-expanding from a sitemap.
- Treo's free tier covers one site; Screpy has no permanent free tier at all, only a trial period.
Screpy and Treo both report on Core Web Vitals, but that is close to where the overlap ends. Screpy folds CWV tracking into a $10-a-month bundle alongside site auditing, rank tracking, and uptime pinging, using Lighthouse-based lab scores tracked over time. Treo does one job: it pulls real-world field data from the Chrome UX Report, layers Lighthouse lab scores on top, adds automated sitemap-based URL discovery, and lets you benchmark your Core Web Vitals against competitor domains. Treo's free tier covers a single site; the moment you need more than one, the price jumps to $75 a month for the Vital plan, nearly eight times Screpy's entry price. Which tool makes sense depends on whether Core Web Vitals is a box to check inside a broader monitoring bundle, or the actual deliverable you are being paid to get right.
The tools at a glance
Screpy
AI-powered SEO platform combining site audits, rank tracking, page speed monitoring, and uptime checks from $10 a month
Screpy treats Core Web Vitals as one feature among five: it pulls Lighthouse-based scores and displays LCP, FID, and CLS alongside site auditing, rank tracking, and uptime pinging, all in a single $10-a-month plan with unlimited projects and team members. For a freelancer who needs to keep an eye on performance without buying a dedicated tool, that consolidation is the whole appeal.
The trade-off shows up the moment performance becomes the actual job. Screpy has no real-user field data, no competitive benchmarking against other domains, and no automated sitemap discovery, so every new site has to be added manually. White-label PDF reports are available from the $30 Pro tier, which is a meaningful agency feature at that price, but there is no API on any plan, which rules Screpy out for teams piping performance data into their own dashboards.
Screpy is also mid-rebuild, with the vendor signaling a substantial platform update in progress, so current users should expect some features to shift as the new version rolls out.

Treo
Core Web Vitals monitoring using real-world Chrome UX Report data.
Treo is built around one distinction that most performance tools blur: the difference between a lab score and what real users actually experienced. It surfaces Chrome UX Report field data next to Lighthouse lab scores, so a team can tell whether "our Lighthouse score improved" also means "users are loading faster," which are not always the same claim.
Point Treo at a domain and it reads the sitemap to discover URLs automatically, no manual tagging or script installation required, which matters on large sites where curating a monitoring list by hand is impractical. Competitive benchmarking lets you track a client's Core Web Vitals against a named competitor domain side by side, and the multi-site dashboard is built to scale across hundreds of properties rather than one.
None of this is cheap once you outgrow the single-site free tier. The Vital plan jumps to $75 a month for up to five sites, and Treo does nothing outside performance monitoring: no rank tracking, no site audit for broken links or meta tags, no uptime pinging. It is a specialist tool, not a consolidation play.
| Feature | Free $0/month | Vital $75/month | Pro $185/month | Scale $375/month | Enterprise Contact for pricing |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sites monitored | 1 | Up to 5 | Up to 15 | Up to 50 | Custom |
| CrUX field data | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |

Which should you choose?
ScrepyTreoTreoScrepyTreoTreoThis is a specialist-versus-generalist decision more than a head-to-head. Treo does one job, Core Web Vitals monitoring, with a depth of real-user data and benchmarking that Screpy does not attempt. Screpy does five jobs, including CWV, at a tenth of Treo's entry paid price, but the performance piece is the shallowest of the five. Buying Screpy to replace Treo for serious performance work will leave you with lab scores and no competitive context; buying Treo to replace Screpy will leave you paying for infrastructure you don't need if audits and rank tracking were the actual point.
Bottom line
Use Treo if Core Web Vitals reporting with real Chrome UX Report data is a deliverable clients are paying for, and you can justify $75 a month once you outgrow the single-site free tier. Use Screpy if performance is one item on a longer checklist alongside audits, rank tracking, and uptime, and $10 a month for all four beats paying for a performance specialist you'll only check occasionally. Neither tool tracks how a site shows up in AI-generated answers, so if AI search visibility becomes part of the reporting scope, that's a separate tool regardless of which one you pick here.
Frequently asked questions
Is Treo worth $75 a month over Screpy's $10 Core Web Vitals reporting?
Treo is worth the price difference specifically when you need real Chrome UX Report field data and competitive benchmarking, neither of which Screpy offers at any price. If a Lighthouse-based lab score trending over time is enough for your reporting needs, Screpy's $10 plan covers CWV alongside three other tools for less than Treo charges for performance alone.
Does Screpy use real user data for Core Web Vitals like Treo does?
Screpy does not use real user data; it pulls Lighthouse-based lab scores, which are synthetic tests run under controlled conditions, not field data from actual Chrome users. Treo surfaces both Chrome UX Report field data and Lighthouse lab scores, so it can show whether a lab score improvement actually translated into a faster experience for real visitors.
Can I track a competitor's Core Web Vitals with either tool?
Only with Treo. Its competitive benchmarking feature, available on paid plans, lets you add a competitor domain and compare Core Web Vitals scores side by side using the same CrUX data source. Screpy's competitor tracking feature, available from its Pro tier, covers keyword ranking comparisons, not performance benchmarking.
Does Screpy or Treo have an API for pulling performance data into a custom dashboard?
Treo does, starting on its $75/month Vital plan, which lets you pull CrUX and Lighthouse data into Looker Studio or another reporting tool. Screpy has no API on any of its three plans, so exporting performance data anywhere outside its own dashboard is not currently possible.
Is Treo's free tier enough for a single small business site?
Yes, for a single site it can be. Treo's free tier covers one site with CrUX field data and limited Lighthouse audits, which is enough to evaluate whether the CrUX coverage for that specific site is useful before paying anything. It won't include competitive benchmarking or an API, both of which require the paid Vital tier.
What does Treo add that Screpy's Core Web Vitals tracking does not cover?
Treo adds three things Screpy's CWV feature doesn't have: real Chrome UX Report field data instead of lab-only scores, automated URL discovery through sitemap scanning instead of manual project setup, and competitive benchmarking against named competitor domains. Screpy's version is a straightforward Lighthouse score tracked over time, useful for a quick check but not built for deep performance diagnostics.
