The category's chart of price against score: https://toolgpa.com/charts/writing ## Keep it, or make your own? **Keep it.** To replace Textio you would be making jobs posted to dozens of job boards at once, which takes an agreement with each board. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 62 of the 100 other writing tools grade higher. - You could not: Jobs posted to dozens of job boards at once, which takes an agreement with each board. - You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
