So you’re using AI writing tools, aren’t you? Copy.ai is one of the most popular in the market and it certainly has plenty of advantages.
It supports more than 25 languages and includes a free plan as well as more than 90 templates to start writing whatever you want.
However, Copy.ai also has some problems. For example, it doesn’t include an SEO tool integration, which is a major issue for anyone that wants to rank high in Google. It doesn’t include a plagiarism checker and, moreover, its Pro plan is quite expensive, it starts at $49 per month.
