As a startup, I love the idea given that this allows us to scale our team. However, the idea of automation made me think that it was a much lower entry price until I clicked on the site and realized it's actually paying for a customized article.

Does it mean that essentially I am paying $160 for an article? I don't think a monthly subscription would make sense at the moment.

Hey, thanks for the feedback.

Right now most of the site analysis, content recommendations, competitor review is automated, but the writing of articles is not. My co-founder is a former copywriter and we have a strong belief that we're a ways away from writing automation. Even with all the focus on machine learning and AI, it's going to be awhile before we can automate that part of the process.

For pricing, it's actually $160 a month for one article a week, so roughly $40 an article.

Thanks!

Thanks! That makes sense and personally, I'm not into automated content either - I feel that it loses the effectiveness of being personal.

I'd love to engage you guys once we've had sufficient funding.

Good luck!
