Free vs Pro: what's in each plan

Free vs Pro: what's in each plan

An honest comparison. The free plugin is a real product, not a trial. Pro removes the limits and adds the advanced features.

What Free includes

Free is free forever. It gives you:

  • 2 SEOBetter Cloud articles (lifetime per site). No API key needed. These run on our servers so you can try the output quality before setting anything up.
  • 30 articles with your own AI key (lifetime per site). Connect your own OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, Gemini, Groq or Ollama key. You pay your provider directly, typically $0.01 to $0.08 per article.
  • 3 content types: blog post, how-to and listicle.
  • English, 6 countries: US, UK, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and Ireland, with country-level localization.
  • Both scores: the GEO score (0 to 100, how citable your article is for AI search) and the SEOBetter score.
  • Schema: Article, FAQ and Breadcrumb structured data on every article.
  • Google Search Console dashboard inside WordPress.
  • Freshness inventory: see which of your posts are going stale.
  • Internal links orphan report: find pages nothing links to.
  • AI crawler audit and llms.txt endpoint.
  • Free stock images via Pexels (add a free key during setup).
  • Meta sync to Yoast, RankMath, AIOSEO and SEOPress.

What Pro adds

Pro is $39/month, or $349/year (about $29/month).

  • All 17 content types, including pillar guides, buying guides, comparisons, case studies, press releases and scholarly articles.
  • 29 languages and 80+ countries, with local currency, spelling and sources.
  • 50 Cloud articles per month, no API keys to manage. Or 300 articles per month with your own key.
  • 1 Brand Voice profile: articles written in your brand's voice.
  • AI featured images in your brand colors.
  • Advanced schema plus 6 Gutenberg schema blocks.
  • Priority research stack: SERP intelligence and full-page source reading for deeper, better-cited articles.
  • AI Citation Tracker (1 tracked prompt) when it ships in Q3 2026, included at no extra cost.
  • Priority support (48 hour response), licensed for 1 site.

AppSumo lifetime deal

Bought SEOBetter as a lifetime deal on AppSumo? Your plan works differently from the monthly Pro tiers on this page: it is a one-time purchase, every feature is included, and only your site count and monthly volume scale with how many codes you stack. Your caps are also leaner and monthly, not the Pro numbers above.

See the dedicated AppSumo articles for the details:

Pro+ and Agency

  • Pro+ ($69/month or $619/year): everything in Pro for 2 to 3 sites, with 100 Cloud articles/month (or 750 with your own key), 3 Brand Voice profiles, GSC-driven freshness alerts, the internal-links suggester and the Content Refresher.
  • Agency ($179/month or $1,790/year): everything in Pro+ for 10 sites and 5 team seats, with 250 pooled Cloud articles/month (or 2,000 with your own key), bulk CSV generation, unlimited Brand Voices, a 24 hour support SLA, and — coming soon — white-label and API access.

Which plan should I pick?

  • Testing SEOBetter, or publishing occasionally in English: Free.
  • Publishing regularly, need more content types or languages, or want Cloud generation without managing API keys: Pro.
  • Running 2 or more sites: Pro+.
  • Managing client sites with a team: Agency.
