Each local area page used to take us half a day to create and optimize.
With SEOmatic, we can create hundreds of pages in the same time, which helps our clients make the best use of their budget.
It's transformed how we deliver scalable SEO solutions.

The #1 Byword Alternative
Byword turns a keyword into an article in under 2 minutes. Then the clock starts on everything those 2 minutes did not cover: the editing, the brand voice, and the question of whether the article was the right move at all. SEOmatic answers that question first: it diagnoses your site, fixes the pages you already have, and proves what each change earned.


Both write and publish content with AI. Compare what happens before the article is chosen and after it goes live.

Agent Diagnosis & Ranked Action Plan
Agents read the whole site and your Search Console data, then rank every fix by what it is worth. You get a short list and 40 executable task types, not a 200-row audit.
Approval Workflow & One-Click Rollback
Nothing goes live until you press Approve, unless you choose more autonomy. Any change an agent made can be undone in one click, on one page or across a whole campaign.
Holdout Testing & Proof Reports
Your worked pages are compared against matched pages left untouched on purpose, so the report shows what the work actually earned. Losses included.
AI Citation Tracking
See the exact pages AI cites when it answers your buyers, in ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews, then build the content that earns citations.
CMS Integrations
Connect the site you already have. Pages get published and edited in place across WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, HubSpot and 10 more, so the work stays yours.
Weekly Replanning
Every week the plan is judged against real results, then rewritten. The agent learns what works on your site, so it gets sharper every week it runs.
Here is why teams that need outcomes, not output speed, make the switch.
Prompt
Written once
Write one honest paragraph about {{ Service }} in {{ City }}. Say something only a plumber who works there would know.
water heater repair · Oakland
Most Oakland homes still run 40-gallon tanks from the nineties, so half our call-outs here end in a replacement rather than a repair.
Same instruction, 412 times. Not one page with the nouns swapped.
Byword is genuinely fast: keyword in, optimized article out in under 2 minutes, trusted by 85,000+ content teams. But speed has a tail. “it sometimes demands me so much time to edit and apply brand voice that I wonder if it is worth,” one r/SEO practitioner admitted of AI writing tools. And no article generator can tell you whether a new article is what your site needs. SEOmatic reads your Search Console data first, and most of what it finds is fix work: pages stuck on page two, decayed content, missing internal links, broken schema. Its agents execute all 40 task types, and write new articles only where the data shows a gap.
Byword publishes to WordPress, Webflow and 4 more platforms, with a simple article-out workflow. SEOmatic edits and publishes across 14 CMS platforms, waits for your approval by default, runs a QA reviewer on every piece, locks money pages, and can undo any change in one click. If you run several sites, workspaces keep each one separate.
An article count is not a result. SEOmatic measures every task against a holdout of untouched pages, keeps the winners, reverts what underperforms, and reports losses alongside wins. It also tracks where you get cited in ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews on every plan, so content decisions feed on evidence.
"SEOmatic is a fully bootstrapped company. We're proud to say that we haven't accepted any VC funding. Instead, every dollar we earn is reinvested into improving our product. We're proudly self-sustained, profitable and committed to staying that way, ensuring we're here for the long run."
