## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** The plain part of BrandWell you could make: long-form writing and link outreach. What surrounds it you could not. The 3 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 92 of the 93 other SEO content tools grade higher. It costs $2,988 a year.

- You could make: Long-form writing and link outreach: an app builder makes these well.
- You could not: A score built from what the top results for each keyword cover.
- You could not: The same prompts asked of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI answers every day, and the answers kept.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
