Frase vs Rankability (2026): which should you pick?

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

Pick Rankability if

• Fits if you run an agency delivering content and AI search work to many clients
• Works for agencies sending clients branded reports on AI visibility

Look elsewhere if

• Watch out: the trial needs a card and becomes the $97 plan after 7 days unless you cancel
• Skip it if you need daily Google rankings, as they update weekly
• Tight if you run many clients on Starter, since its 20 content projects a month are shared across all of them
• Pricey if you outgrow Starter, as the next plan, Agency, is $297 a month
• Watch out: each site audit stops at 1,000 pages, and bigger crawls need extra capacity

Frase

• Starter stops at its monthly limits; overages are optional on Professional and Scale at $5 or $4 per extra article.
• Extra seats cost $29 a month each on Professional and Scale.
• Reporting history is current only on Starter, 3 months on Professional and 12 months on Scale.
• White-label reports and a branded client portal need the custom-priced Enterprise plan.

Rankability

• Plans are sold by monthly capacity, such as content projects, tracked queries and audits, shared across all clients.
• Google rankings update weekly, not daily; AI answers are checked daily.
• The free trial needs a card and turns into the monthly plan after 7 days unless canceled; annual plans have no trial.
• Each site audit covers up to 1,000 pages; larger crawls need extra capacity.
