## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.2 out of 4**, graded Oct 23, 2026. Copywritely checks a text or a page for plagiarism, keyword stuffing, readability and grammar, highlights the problems in an editor and builds briefs for copywriters. It doesn't write articles, though, and its own pricing page lists the Beginner plan at more money than Basic and Pro for fewer documents.

- **Value for money: C.** Basic is $23 a month on yearly billing ($29 monthly) for 100 documents, between this category's cheaper quarter ($19.99) and its middle ($45). More than 300 documents a month is arranged by email.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** A free account gets 10 text checks and 10 copywriter briefs, and the page doesn't say they renew. Enough to see the editor, not to check a site's pages.
- **Features: C.** Plagiarism and rewrite detection, keyword density, a SERP term checker, briefs from templates, and readability and grammar scores in 8 languages. It does checking fully, but that's a smaller job: it writes no articles.
- **Ease of use: B.** No rating on record, but there's nothing to connect: paste a text or a URL and the problems are highlighted with tips.
- **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web plus a browser extension, with no integrations on record and no desktop or phone app.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Copywritely you would be making search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. It costs $276 a year.

- You could not: Search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date.
- You could not: A score built from what the top results for each keyword cover.
- You could not: Grammar checking as you type, wherever you type.
- You could not: An API that other software can build on.
