Compare Quality of Content Output

Benchmark I used:

I noticed that most GPT-3 apps started off with Facebook & Google ad templates & Blog intro.

So they should have received more love in development and should give us a better idea of their output quality, right? Besides, these 2 modules are also widely used by people.

So I’ve decided to compare the content output based on these 2 modules.

As for the topic, I chose Coronavirus which is a trending topic that has one of the most written content in 2020. Hopefully there’s more data for GPT-3 to work with.

Keyword: Coronavirus Vaccine

Description: Being vaccinated against Coronavirus allows you to come in close contact with people without risk of infection.

Copysmith Summary

Pros

++ Huge team
++ Have funding
++ Have own tech built on top of GPT-3
++ Consistent updates

Cons

— Surprisingly poor output quality.

Check this Facebook ad suggestion. The output is basic and barely usable.

— A little laggy for some modules.
— Poor deal terms

WriteSonic Summary

Pros

++ Good quality output

Output from most other apps is raw. Good for inspiration but it’s hard to use it as is without some heavy editing.

Writesonic’s output is polished and native to the platform you are publishing.

For example, I tested the Fb ad generations…

Instead of a block of paragraph, the first sentence is a short punchy hook, which works well for Fb ads. Some of them have emojis too. Nice!

++ Easy to use & navigate around
++ Supports Long-form Content

Cons

— Lack of modules. They have one of the least available. Given how good the Fb ad one is, I feel they’re going for quality instead of quantity.

— No unlimited. Really hope this one has unlimited generations! Oh well, at least they are on LTD.

Nichesss Summary

Pros

++ Great support attitude from the founder
++ Have a ton of modules
++ Unlimited generation
++ Consistent updates

Cons

— 1 man team & no plans to expand.

Everything’s good now, but I’m worried about their long-term sustainability. Can Malcom work at this consistently for the next 5 – 10 years? If not, this is not a lifetime deal.

It’ll also be hard to sell the business if there’s no proprietary tech built on top of it. But hey, It’s only $59! Use it and get an ROI for your business.

— Average to poor output quality.

Content Bot Summary

Pros

++ Great support from the founder.
++ Automation features — you can get the tool to send you blog/marketing ideas regularly in your inbox. This might spark your creativity and help you come up with more ideas.
++ Able to enter in one language and have the output delivered in another language. They also support a huge list of languages
++ Good UI.

Cons

— Some of the results are irrelevant.

I filled out Coronavirus and got some ad copies for effortless workouts and fresh smoothies. (10-30% of the time)
This problem doesn’t happen with some other apps, which makes me wonder about Contentbot’s output quality.

Content Villain Summary

Pros

++ Great support from the founder.
++ Lots of modules
++ Bespoke generator — I have not tested this one, but the team will customize the algorithm to fit your niche. Very cool!
++ API access – That means you can generate an output without visiting the Content Villain website. Making content creation even faster. But of course, it’s not easy to set up.

Cons

— Poor UX

— The current output is delivered via a chatbot which is inefficient compared to generating outputs using a web app. I believe the team is working on the web version now. The chatbot also froze a few times during my testing.

GoCopy Summary

Pro

++ Unique UI/ UX

Instead of the usual workflow where you choose your module, enter your keywords, and generate an output, GoCopy opens in a content editor that is minimalistic & feature-rich.

You can start typing away and then highlight sentences to expand/ rewrite. Similar to WordTune and Quilbot though the output is not as good.

On the sidebar, you can choose the module you want (FB ads, blog intro), and generate an output without leaving the content editor. I like this a lot because you can copy and paste what you like directly into your editor and type away.

If they have a Shortly-like feature where you can generate long-form content on the fly that would be amazing.

Cons

— Average Quality

For my chosen topic in this test, it performed poorly. I tested with other topics and it was average. What a bummer! Because I really like the workflow. I hope they’ll improve the quality and add long-form content.

Copy.ai Summary

Pros

++ Good quality output

Instead of production-ready outputs like Writesonic, Copy.AI churns out huge paragraphs which is a good source of inspiration for different angles & ideas.

++ Lots of modules
++ Stable company

They did not do any LTD but have already raised 2.9M in funding and have a reported monthly recurring revenue of $53,000.

++ Multiple languages

You can enter input in one language, and have the output in another.

Cons

— Poor UX.

There’s a bug that moves generated content to the tiny sidebar, making viewing difficult.

— Slip in Quality

In my previous test, they produced the best content. But not anymore. Not sure if it’s because of the topic I chose.

Conversion.ai Summary

Pros

++ Nice UI/ UX

Looks great, easy to use, and loads fast.

++ Long Form Content

One of the few tools that supports long form content. Perhaps it’s still under beta, the quality is not as good compared to the other modules.

Also, I don’t get why they make editing mandatory before generating a new block of text. Sometimes you want to generate a few blocks in advance.

++ Good Quality Output.

The output quality is good compared to most tools.

But I find some of them repetitive, as though they follow a small set of templates.
In my test, 30-50% of them start with a question.

E.g. “Are you worried about getting infected with Coronavirus?”
Would be good to have more variety of hooks.

Cons

— Poor support. Someone had serious privacy issues, but it was not addressed well and in a timely manner.

Shortlyai Summary

Pros

++ Focused

I like that they are focused on one module, long-form content. (That could be a con as well). Instead of making a bunch of sub-par modules, they concentrate on making that one great.

++ Nice UI/ UX

Easiest & most flexible among all to create long-form content. You just type in the heading and keep on tapping the “Write for me” button. Easy! There are also shortcuts to help you create content even faster.

Cons

— Given that they only focus on one module, I expect more from the editor. It’s super basic now. There’s no way to change the tone, add headings/ sub-headings, rewrite/ expand sentences, export in markdown, and more.

Snazzy Summary

Pros

++ Good UI/ UX

Looks great, easy to use, intuitive. You can even set up your brand keywords and description, which makes generating output easier in future. But too bad the output is poor.

Cons

— Poor output.

The output is a real disappointment, especially when the UI is so good. It’s like seeing a beautiful girl, only her mouth stinks so bad.

The Facebook ad content is mainly 1 liner that is not usable.

The blog intro output is not as bad, but not impressive either. I haven’t tested other modules. Maybe they’re better.
