What if you could write better-quality words more quickly? That's the promise of Al writers, with GPT-3 giving birth to a plethora of offerings based on the generative Al technology.
Here, we pitch two such writers in battle. Jasper, formerly known as Jarvis, was born in 2021 and claims to have 60,000 customers around the world. Writesonic sprung into life in late 2020 and has already earned numerous awards. Could either of them work for you?
Free or paid?
Jasper offers three plans. The cheapest is Starter, which is designed for "short-form content such as product descriptions, single paragraphs and much more". $29 per month buys you 20,000 words, but you can pay for more on demand.
If you want Jasper's more advanced tools, which offers a Google Docs style editor rather than simple templates, you must pay for Boss Mode. This costs from $59 a month if you pay monthly or $588 for an annual deal (so $49 per month), for which you get 50,000 words. If you want 100,000 words, you'll pay $99 per month. There's a free trial, but you'll need to enter your credit card details and then cancel during the five-day trial period.
Jasper also offers a "Business custom plan", but you'll need to contact the firm for a price. This adds an account manager, onboarding and training sessions, as well as premium support rather than the chat-based offering.
Writesonic provides a free trial as well, but this doesn't ask for your credit card details, so is well worth firing up even if you don't intend to buy the service. You're limited to 10,000 words, but it's a great way to experience many of its advanced tools.
Writesonic's "Long-form" plan is designed for bloggers, freelancers and businesses. It starts at $19 per month, for which you get up to 60,000 words for one user. If you pay annually, that figure drops to $13 per month.
