Partial competitor is Similarweb and it is only company from list of competitors is trading on stock exchange is Similarweb finance.yahoo.com/quote/SMWB?p=SMWB&.tsrc=fin-srch

Main competitors of SEMrush are only :

2. Ahrefs with 112 employees on Linkedin linkedin.com/company/ahrefs/ no active hiring.
3. SE Ranking with 150 employees linkedin.com/company/se-ranking/about/ , no active hiring


Small competitors
SERPstat from NetPeak marketing agency, there is no info how many people work here but I expect not more than 100 employees dedicated to SERPstat. No activel hiring. linkedin.com/company/serpstat/about/

Spyfu with 18 employees on linkedin linkedin.com/company/spyfu/ without actively hiring.
My main conclusion from this data and from my experience:
- MOZ is “old-school” SEO tool and is not so modern and fresh as Semrush and Ahrefs
- SEMrush is fighting for dominance and TOP 1 of SEO tool on the market.
- SEMrush has all chances to run away from competitors and become “winner takes it all”
