Beta is for webkit browsers. Chrome and safari both work fine right now and are available for windows and mac.
Fade in speed is too slow. I WANT MY DATA NOWS! The fade in is fine, cut the time in half. please.
It'd be nice to be able to add keywords in bulk the same way you add domains. This one at a time stuff is very time consuming.
Just signed up for beta yesterday. So far so good, the interface seems simple enough and easy to understand.
Two things I think would be helpful are:
1) List the url that is ranking. I mean it is great to know that the domain is ranking in X position for some keyword phrase, but is it the home page or a sub-url that is in that position?
2) Allow us to create/keep notes for each keyword line. That would make it easier to test and track different marketing methods at the keyword/url level to see if something worked or not and how long it took to see some results.

checked it out good tool and thanks
but if the above can be done...then it is an awesome tool
A few questions.
Will there be more invites?
I would really like to test this baby
What price range will this be when it goes to paid?
Ok features are cool but how about accuracy? Google has a ton of factors now that can make results different. For example, location (IP) of searcher. If the tool is placed on US server it will be only relevant to emulate like it's US searcher on Google.
If you want to check UK rankings you need to check google.co.uk results with UK IP. Do you have that option?

I'm actively sending out invites every day. Still working on prices but it's going to offer many more features for less than any of the competition. My SERP tracker is likely the most accurate one possible. I've never had a discrepancy with rankings. Tracker also supports all separate google countries.
Clicking the button just to the left of the keyword will show you which URL is ranking.
looks great. thanks for the invite. i currently use authoritylabs and am happy to see a competing product.
i would also like to see a bulk keyword add option in the interface. the ui change could be as simple as adding a small link next to, or under the "add keyword" submit button that reads "add multiple keywords". clicking this link swaps the text input field to a larger textarea and the submit button to read "add keywords" (plural).

Not exactly sure what you are suggesting. A bulk keyword add that add's the same keywords to all domains?
This already exists. On the top navigation bar one of the options is "Bulk import". Or are you suggesting a UI change for the existing tool?
I got the invite, thank you for that.
As for accuracy. Well your tracking is very good for US rankings but someone using google.co.uk from US (with US IP) will have different results than someone from UK using google.co.uk. Because of the geo-targeting people from different countries get the different results.
I do understand you are now in Beta but I just hope one day you will setup some proxys to emulate "searching" from other countries too to get effect like UK person searching on google.co.uk (at least proxy IP for the major countries).
However, even not all but most of my websites are targeting US market so I still find this tool very very useful. I have test it and for my US sites it's very accurate and I do find this tool to be very good. If the price of this tool will be reasonable when it goes to paid I will most definately pay for it.
Also, since many of your clients will probably be SEO experts and SEO companies (like me) it would probably be good to have a really good reporting system, like exporting data in nice history graphs, charts etc. Maybe even some customizations to reports to add a my company logo etc.
Trust me the reports are very very important part of it. If I can just export your report and (or directly) send it to my clients you save me time, when you save me time you make me money, when you do that your product than becomes "must have" for me and for other SEOs.
Anyway, I think this product will have a really nice future, can't wait for new updates.

Thanks for your input.
As far as accuracy toward UK (and other non .com google searches) I see what your getting at, however, I've simply not been able to reproduce the results. I've always gotten the exact same results browsing google.co.uk from a UK proxy or straight from a US based one. Feel free to send me some specific examples if need be, I've yet to come across any strong anomalies. Please note, as with all google servers, your not always going to hit the same datacenter from the same IP no matter what. Although you will nearly always see the same results, there may be some fluctuations here and there, but I would relate this to the datacenters IP, not the end-users. Although from what I understand there are many more US based datacenters than any other country.
Reports are underway and will be implemented before the site goes paid around the October deadline.
I would like this also, make a bulk keyword add that add's the same keywords to all domains in a group. The reason why I would use it is to see how parasite blog posts rank. I also have several domains that are in the same niche fighting for same keywords to create SERP monopolies

It wouldn't take more than a matter of a few seconds to do this the way it is setup now. Things like this would just add clutter to the interface.
That would be a pain if checking more then a couple keywords.
In addition, let's say you tracking more then 10 keyword phrases and you are on page 2, or 10, or whatever. If you click the button to the left in order to see which URL is ranking, then click your back button to get back to the previous page, you are taken to the beginning. So you have to start all over again to get back to the page you were just on (1-clicking the back button, 2 - clicking the domain name to expand the list of keywords 3 - clicking the arrow on the button to go to page two, etc...).
It would also be helpful to have pagination links and/or the ability to display more then 10 keywords on the page.
