GrowthBar is an AI SEO writing tool for bloggers, content teams and agencies, acquired by SEOptimer and being merged into its platform while it keeps its own plans for now. It scans the Google results to generate SEO outlines with headings, keywords, word counts and internal links, writes full blog posts with its AI (a 1,500-word post in about two minutes), audits existing articles, and adds keyword research on 7 billion suggestions, rank tracking, Search Console integration and data on competitors' keywords, Google Ads and backlinks. Custom AI models write in your brand voice, and a Chrome extension brings the tools into Google and WordPress.
GrowthBar has three plans, Standard, Pro and Agency, with a choice of monthly or annual billing and a 7-day free trial. See the GrowthBar website for current pricing.
Pros: fast outlines and drafts, keyword and competitor research in the same tool, rank tracking, Chrome extension, many articles per month on higher plans. Cons: no automatic publishing, no tracking in AI answers, no backlinks, product in transition after the SEOptimer acquisition.
Writesonic, once known as an AI writer, now presents itself as an AI search growth platform for growth teams, agencies and enterprises. It tracks how ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Overviews and, on Enterprise, other AI platforms mention your brand every day, by crawling their web interfaces, and shows visibility scores, citations, sentiment, share of voice, query fan-outs, ads and shopping results. An Action Center, AI agents, an article writer and site audits then help fix the gaps, with Google Search Console, GA4, WordPress and Looker Studio integrations, an API and an MCP server.
Prices are in US dollars: Starter $99 per month ($79 billed annually), Basic $249 ($199), Growth $499 ($399) and Enterprise on quote, with a free trial.
Pros: detailed AI visibility data, citation and competitor analysis, content and audits in the same tool, API and MCP. Cons: only three AI platforms below Enterprise, Action Center and sentiment limited on lower plans, few articles per plan, no backlink network.
