Company summary

Every fact on this page names its source and the date it was checked. Where a claim cannot be supported, it does not appear.

Above Apex is a link-building brand at aboveapex.com. It sells three managed routes: expert-request responses billed per live link by Domain Rating band, a fixed monthly SaaS programme built around eight backlinks, and white-label fulfilment for agencies with an account manager and unbranded reporting. Its expert-request pages speak to B2B and tech teams with genuine subject expertise, and turn away gambling, adult and speculative crypto work.

Buyers get controls where it matters. Expert quotes can be approved in Slack before submission, placements land in a live sheet showing publication, authority, traffic, anchor and date, and dropped links are reinstated or replaced free with an equally strong or better one. Timings are estimates, typically 20 to 30 days to the first expert-request link and 10 to 15 days on the agency route, with no guaranteed volume.

Treat the prices as published figures to confirm, not as a final quote. HARO links list at $400, $450 and $520 by DR band under a $1,500 to $2,000 monthly minimum that sits uneasily beside a zero-links-zero-pay pledge, and the SaaS page shows $3,500 a month for eight backlinks in one place and from $3,300 in another. Currency, taxes and the full contract are unpublished, so confirm the payable minimum, the billed-link definition and notice liability in writing before signing.

Latest scoring review

Above Apex scored 64.3 of 100 under M1.3. The scoring run date is 5 September 2026. Evidence was admitted through 2026-09-05. This page shows 6 sources.

Where they do well

Above Apex suits B2B and SaaS buyers who want managed outreach with visible controls. Expert quotes go out with optional Slack approval, every live placement lands in a sheet showing publication, authority, traffic, anchor and date, and dropped links are reinstated or replaced free with an equally strong or better one. Agencies get a named account route, unbranded dashboards and an NDA option, and all three routes run month-to-month on a 20-working-day notice.

Where they can improve

The payable commitment needs pinning down before signing. A $1,500-2,000 monthly minimum sits beside a zero-links-zero-pay pledge with no stated rule for quiet months, the SaaS page shows $3,500 a month for eight backlinks in one place and from $3,300 in another, and currency, taxes and the full service contract are unpublished. Buyer control beyond HARO quote approval and the replacement claim window are unproven, so confirm the billed-link definition and notice liability in writing.

How the position is calculated: on each eligible ranking, rated providers are ordered by Service Fit Score only. That order is converted to a 0–100 value, and the values are averaged equally across the company's appearances. Rankings that do not include the company are omitted from the average.

Equal Service Fit Scores share the average of the positions they cover. A gap under 0.5 points is a tie: shared rank, alphabetical order, no hidden tie-breaker.
