Frase focuses on 1 piece of the SEO puzzle

It’s hard to write great content. It’s harder without research, briefs, and outlines.

Frase prioritizes the writing part of your SEO process. They pay little attention to keyword research, outlines, briefs or optimizing your content after it goes live.

You’re left guessing:

  • Your content strategy
  • How to outrank competitors
  • How to keep your content topping the SERPs
“I wish they would prioritize the AI to make their initial product better (research, briefs, outlines) rather than investing too much in AI writing features.”
