An interesting option
This plugin could compete with Yoast or Rank Math — but certainly not in its free version. It lacks many features that other plugins offer at no cost, such as Author Base, LLMs.txt, Redirections, or Structured Data. All of these, for example, are available in the free version of Rank Math. The plugin is popular mainly because many LiteSpeed and LiteSpeed Enterprise hosting providers bundle the PRO version as part of their hosting packages. It can also be attractive for SEO agencies, since the PRO plan at $249 — with no site limit — is cheaper than most competing plugins.

avoid - not ready for primetime yet
This plugin is extremely basic and will get the basic things done, but lacks many features expected of a modern SEO plugin -- particularly their "pro" addon which is a joke
