Which writes longer articles?

RankYak, by its own figure: up to 5,000 words. We default to about 1,600 because a shorter article is easier to read and to check.

Content Autopilot vs RankYak

RankYak is $99 a month per site for 30 articles of up to 5,000 words, with a 3-day trial, a backlink exchange, an MCP server and a REST API. Its articles carry cited sources, as ours do. What it does not have, on the pages we read, is any tracking of what AI assistants say about you. That is half of our product. We have not published pricing yet.

RankYak's details were read on its own site on 14 November 2026. We make Content Autopilot, so weigh this page accordingly.

The difference that matters

On writing and publishing the two products are close, and RankYak states that its articles are "backed with citations to their sources". The gap is the other half. We ask ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity your buyers' questions every week and turn the ones where you are missing into articles. RankYak's pages describe nothing of the kind.

Site Guard is a real feature we do not match as a product: we flag articles that need a refresh, but we do not produce a list of pages competing for the same search.

What we could not confirm

The integration logos on RankYak's home page (Ghost, Duda and others) differ from the lists it names in text.
