Key features
Create Pages
- Pages from your own data
- Each page is built from one row of a dataset, such as products and their rivals, or cities and services, so the facts come from your data rather than the AI.
- Template blocks
- Templates mix fixed text with placeholder variables, AI text and AI images generated with OpenAI, regular images and comparison tables.
- Conditional content
- Conditional blocks, including conditional AI text, appear only when a row meets a condition, so pages differ by more than a swapped name.
- One-click generation
- Generates a page for every row in the data source, from 2,000 articles per template on Starter to no limit on Unlimited.
- WordPress, HTML or Markdown
- A WordPress plugin syncs the generated pages to your site, and other CMSs can take the pages as HTML or Markdown files.
- Free generators
- Free tools build CSVs of product comparisons and alternative product listings, and archive or directory pages from product data.
SEOmatic

- Agents read your Search Console data, rank the work worth doing, draft each change and re-plan every Monday.

- Bulk and programmatic pages
- Turns a CSV or dataset into hundreds of location, service, integration or comparison pages using templates and variables. Templates start at Scale.
- Articles and internal links

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.
