Producing content is a key aspect of almost every job or education, but it is also time consuming and doesn’t come naturally to everyone – this makes content generation a natural target for generative AI. There are a plethora of AI content generators out there, even though we are still in the early stages of generative AI, making it difficult to know which tools to go for. We have collected some of the best, based on your use case, to get you started!
- Jasper – best overall AI content generator
- Frase – best for SEO
- Copy.ai – best for a human-AI collaboration
- Article Forge – best for long-form articles
- Contentbot – best for automation
- Rytr – best affordable option
1. Jasper AI – best overall AI content generator
This AI content generator will write across a wide range of categories, from SEO-optimized content to social media posts. This breadth in use cases is reflected in the +50 long and short-form writing templates available in the app. This all makes Jasper one of the most, if not the most, versatile AI content generator and a good option if you only want to use one. Most of Jasper’s key features are linked to integrations with other tools:
- Automating sales processes with CRM integrations – Jasper integrates with popular CRM tools like Hubspot and Salesforce.
- Task management through project management integrations with e.g. Asana, Trello and Jira.
- Schedule meetings automatically with the Google Calendar integration.
Price: Free 5-day trial with plans starting at $24/month. Pricing scales with the number of words written per month.
2. Frase – best for SEO
The Frase AI content writer is specifically focused on search engine optimization (SEO). Frase offers search engine optimization beyond generative AI writing, including analytics and optimizing existing content. Another interesting AI-based feature is the Research functionality, in which the AI performs research on certain topics to provide users with knowledge and sources for their writing. Other features include:
- Integrations – Frase offers integrations with popular CMSs and marketing platforms, such as HubSpot, Google Analytics and WordPress.
- Collaboration – the tool lets users collaborate on the same content simultaneously.
- Content Briefs – sometimes all you need is a framework to start writing. Frase will generate content briefs to help users get started.
Price: No free trial, and plans start at $15/month.
3. Copy.ai – best for a human-AI collaboration
Copy.ai is one of the more affordable AI content writers, and is particularly good at low-volume copywriting. Most AI content generators focus on getting almost-finished content to the users immediately, but Copy.ai has taken a slightly different, ‘collaborative’ approach. Effectively, Copy.ai will write content in snippets and have users edit as they go – this takes longer, but involves the writer much more and merging AI with the writer’s tone. Other features include:
- Multilingual support – many AI content apps are focused on one language, but Copy.ai supports several.
- Tone and keyword analysis – this AI content generator will analyze the text to ensure that the tone and messaging is suitable for the content.
- Copy.ai integrates with a range of other tools, including Google Docs and Zapier.
Price: Free option with paid plans starting at $36/month. The free option allows for 2,000 words per month, which could cover 1-2 content pieces.
4. Article Forge – best for long-form articles
This generative AI content writer is focused on long-form articles, not unlike Copy.ai. The difference is that Article Forge will generate entire articles of more than 1,500 words in one go, in contrast to the step-by-step process offered by Copy.ai. In addition to writing high-quality articles, Article Forge also makes sure that the content is optimized for search. Other features include:
- Keyword research – the app’s AI conducts keyword research to make sure that the content is fully SEO optimized.
- Niche content – AI writing tools aren’t usually expected to write good niche or technical content, but Article Forge is designed to do so.
- Avoid plagiarism – the tool will automatically ensure that the content does not plagiarize any other content online.
Price: Free trial available with paid plans starting at $27/month. The baseline paid plan includes 25,000, which should be enough for more than 10-15 content pieces.
5. Contentbot – best for automation
Contentbot caters to a broad range of users from copy writers to founders, and generates blog content, marketing copy and landing page copy. In addition to writing automatic content, Contentbot also educates users on writing through helpful feedback and suggestions. One of the most interesting features of ContentBot is Automation – the AI content generator will automatically create daily, weekly or monthly content to provide users with a steady flow of regular content. Other features include:
- Paraphrasing – this is an interesting feature, in which Contentbot will paraphrase up to 2,000 words at a time.
- Plagiarism checker – similar to Article Forge, Contentbot has a plagiarism checker that helps users avoid plagiarism in their content.
Price: Contentbot offers a “prepaid” option at $1 per 1000 words, as well as subscriptions starting at $19/month.
Rytr – best affordable option
Rytr is a simple-to-use AI content generator that creates content across a range of categories, such as email newsletters, ad copy and blog posts. Rytr is a particularly versatile AI content generator, as it allows users to adjust tones, formats and writing styles across all these types of content. Other features include:
- Integrations with popular tools like Slack, Zapier and WordPress.
- SEO optimization – often content is generated for SEO purposes, and Rytr’s AI writing assistant takes this into account when generating content.
- Collaboration – content writing is often a team effort, and Rytr allows multiple collaborators to work on the same content project.
Price: Free options with paid plans starting at $9/month.
