Frase vs thruuu (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 thruuu if

• Fits if you want the full top 100 results for a keyword, not just the top 10
• Works for writers building briefs from what ranks and what AI engines cite

Look elsewhere if

• Tight if you're staying free, as the 10 credits are one-time and US English only
• Skip it if you need ChatGPT in the AI analysis on Starter, as it starts at Pro, $33 a month on yearly billing
• Watch out: Gemini, Perplexity and AI Mode need Agency, $66 a month on yearly billing
• Not for you if you work in a team on Starter, as team members start at Pro
