Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.4
GPA, above 59 of the 87 other SEO content tools we grade
hrefStack is a web-based AI agent for SEO content. It reads a site's Google Search Console data and competitors' rankings to find keyword gaps, writes articles that are scored on readability, structure and keyword use, and publishes them to a CMS on a schedule. Plans are priced by the number of words generated a month, with a free plan that renews monthly.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about hrefStack, taken from its own pages and our grades.
You connect Search Console and a CMS, and allowances count words, not articles, so the monthly total depends on length.

hrefStack reads your Search Console data and competitors' rankings to find keyword gaps, writes and scores articles, and publishes them to your CMS on a schedule.

Paid plans start at $45 a month

There is a free plan
10,000 words a month, up to 2,000 words an article, one article at a time, unlimited AI images and basic models. No research features; no card needed.

The report card
Best for keyword gaps turned into published articles
hrefStack reads your Search Console data and competitors' rankings to find keyword gaps, writes and scores articles, and publishes them to your CMS on a schedule. It has a free plan, but that plan has no research features at all, the agent and gap tools start at $45, and the API and team seats wait on Pro.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | Starter is $45 a month for 100,000 words, right at this category's middle ($45), or $450 a year. Pro is $69 a month for unlimited words, the API and team collaboration. |
| Free plan and trial | C | A free plan with no card: 10,000 words a month, articles up to 2,000 words, one at a time. No research features, so you'll hit the edge quickly. |
| Features | B | A Search Console agent, competitor keyword gaps, researched articles with tables, video and links, a six-part content score, scheduled publishing and daily ranking data. The whole job, though research starts at Starter. |
| Ease of use | C | No rating on record. You connect Search Console and a CMS, and allowances count words, not articles, so the monthly total depends on length. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web only, with no desktop or phone app. It publishes to WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Webflow, Ghost, Sanity and Squarespace, reads Search Console and has an API on Pro. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who hrefStack is for
- Fits if you're a small team that wants keyword gaps turned into published articles
- Works for sites on WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, Ghost or Sanity
Who it is not for
- Tight if you stay free, at 10,000 words a month, 2,000 per article and no research features
- Pricey if you need the API, custom prompts or team seats, which wait on Pro at $69 a month
- Watch out: allowances are counted in words, so long articles mean fewer of them
- Watch out: the AI agent and competitor gaps are listed only from Starter at $45 a month
Good to know
Good for
- Small teams that want keyword gaps turned into published articles
- Trying an AI SEO writer on a free monthly word allowance
- Sites on WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Webflow, Ghost or Sanity
Worth knowing
- The free plan has no research features and caps articles at 2,000 words and 10,000 words a month.
- API access, custom prompts and team collaboration need the Pro plan.
- Allowances are counted in words, not articles, so the number of articles a month depends on their length.
- The AI agent and the research tools, competitor gaps included, are listed only from the Starter plan up.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace hrefStack 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 is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.4 is higher than 59 of the 87 other SEO content tools we grade. It costs $540 a year.
What you could make
- Long-form writing: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- Search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date.
- An image model, which you can rent by the picture but not make.
- A score built from what the top results for each keyword cover.
- Daily checks of where your pages rank in search results.
- It plugs into other products, WordPress, Shopify and Wix among them, and has an API.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. hrefStack’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
