|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CSolo is $49 a month, billed monthly with no yearly option on record, a little above this category's middle of $45. Clustering and auto-blogging need Team at $99, and content optimization and AI visibility need Business at $149. | BStarter is $14 a month billed yearly ($19 monthly) for 50 credits, inside this category's cheapest quarter ($20). Most models use 1 credit an article, but the dearer OpenAI and Anthropic ones use 4, and the top Anthropic model 10. |
| Free plan and trial | DNo free plan. Every plan has a 3-day trial, shorter than a week, so there's little time to see a month of output. | CA free plan with 3 articles and 25,000 words, the editor, the content score and WordPress posting, with no card. No bulk writing, brand voice or links, and 3 articles go fast. |
| Features | BKeyword research from search features, competitors and PPC data, clustering, topical maps, outlines, an AI writer with an SEO score, auto-blogging, rewrites of existing pages and AI visibility tracking. It covers the whole job, spread across four plans. | COne-click articles, bulk writing and scheduled posting, SERP research with a content score, automatic links, Amazon product lists and a WordPress MCP server.

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.
