- Tight if you're on Starter, at 5 articles, 5 prompts and 10 keyword searches a month
- Pricey if you need volume, as 30 articles means Pro at $99 a month
- Watch out: Advanced at $249 adds only 10 articles over Pro; the step up is mostly prompts

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
