Which one fits you?

Choose Surfer SEO if…

Publishing throughput is your constraint and you want one tool to flag a gap, rewrite the exact page, and push it live to WordPress. Their content loop is more mature than ours, and their WordPress publishing is a genuine advantage today.

Choose GetCited.me if…

You care about where the citation actually points, not only about producing more pages — plus deployable technical artifacts and detection of brand confusion, which content tooling does not address.

Frequently Asked Questions

Their homepage banner names Claude, but Claude does not appear in the per-plan feature checklist we read on 2026-08-09. Their marketing and their feature list differ — ask them which one is current before you decide.
No. It is not part of the $49/mo tier. It is bundled from $99/mo billed yearly with 25 prompts refreshed weekly, and the standalone AI Search Analytics product is priced separately at roughly $82–95/mo. Checked 2026-08-09 — verify on their pricing page.
Not publish — by design. Our free WordPress plugin turns a finished article into a WordPress draft, with its SEO fields, cover image and FAQ structured data, and you press publish in WordPress. Surfer goes further and publishes in one or two clicks, so if one-click WordPress publishing is the bottleneck you are solving, their plugin does that today and ours does not.
Partly. Both track a similar set of AI surfaces. The difference is what follows the measurement: Surfer optimizes and publishes the page, while we also generate the deployable technical artifacts and flag when an answer cites a look-alike domain instead of yours.
