Known issues we've tracked

REPOSITIONED AS A GEO PLATFORM, PRICES ROUGHLY DOUBLED (pricing check 2026-10-19): writesonic.com now titles itself an **AI Search Visibility Platform**, and its plans are built around tracking how ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overviews mention your brand, with AI articles and site audits as allowances. The Lite $39 / Standard $79 / Professional $159 lineup and the free plan this page showed since April are gone. Current plans, billed yearly: **Starter $79/mo, Basic $199/mo, Growth $399/mo, Enterprise custom** (monthly billing costs more -- the cards say save $240 / $600 / $1,200 a year). There is a free trial with no credit card but no free plan on the pricing page. Extra users are $50/user/month.

Top AIToolTier-ranked alternatives in the same category, ordered by our overall score.

A

Grammarly (by Superhuman)

8.0

AI writing assistant that catches errors everywhere you type -- now with full AI rewriting. The company behind it renamed itself Superhuman in November 2025 (the Grammarly product keeps its name), alongside sibling products Coda, Superhuman Mail, and the Superhuman Go proactive AI assistant

B

Copy.ai

7.8

Copy.ai now sells itself as GTM AI -- a go-to-market workflow platform priced per team, not the $36 solo copywriting tool it used to be. **The pricing page no longer lists a free plan or the old Starter/Advanced tiers: the entry plan is Chat at $29/month ($24 annual) for 5 seats, and workflow credits only start at Growth, $1,000/month billed annually.** Short-form copy is still what the templates do best.

B

QuillBot

7.8

B

7.5

AI resume tailoring that matches your real experience to any job description in 30 seconds
