Which one is for you
Pick Emplibot if
- Fits if your site runs on WordPress and you want posts and social reposts going out every week
- Works for agencies, which get a white-label WordPress plugin and a shared dashboard
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if your site isn't on WordPress, as everywhere else means copying and pasting each article
- Tight if you post often, as Starter stops at 2 articles a week and the same features cost $99 for 4 or $149 for 7
- Not for you if you want a free plan, as the only way in is the 7-day trial
- Watch out: agency pricing is offered but not published, so you'd have to ask
Pick Outrank if
- Fits if you run one business site and want an article posted to it every day without writing it
- Works for agencies running several sites, as the bill drops 10% to 20% across 2 to 25 sites
Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if you pay monthly, at $99 for one site against $999 for a whole year
- Watch out: backlinks are a swap, so your own articles carry links to other customers' sites
- Tight if you need more than 30 articles a month, as 60 or 90 cost $85 or $160 a month on top
- Watch out: human editing is a separate $1,399 a month, and extra backlink plans run $199 to $1,899
- Watch out: the trial's length isn't stated, and articles written during it carry an Outrank watermark

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.
