Which one is for you
Pick ClickFlow if
- Fits if you're a marketing team that wants a plan built from your Search Console data and drafts to approve
- Works for agencies whose clients comment on drafts without an account
Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if you're one person with one site, as Essentials is $159 a month with no annual option shown
- Tight if you're staying free, as the free plan stops at 5 articles in total and CMS publishing needs Essentials
- Watch out: drafts sent to a CMS land as drafts to publish yourself; only the hosted blog goes live on its own
- Too light for AI answer tracking beyond two assistants, as visibility scans cover only ChatGPT and Perplexity
Pick Frase if
- Fits if you want articles drafted and published with little work on your part
- Works for agencies running content for up to 10 client sites on Scale at $239 a month
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you publish a lot, as Starter stops at 10 articles a month with no overage option
- Pricey if you need a team, since 3 seats means Professional at $103 a month, and extra seats are $29 each
- Not for you if you need white-label reports or a client portal, which are Enterprise only
- Watch out: reporting history is current only on Starter, 3 months on Professional and 12 on Scale
- Too light for watching many pages on Starter, which tracks 10 pages for decay and 50 AI 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.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
