A Clearscope alternative for founders and small teams

The short answer

Clearscope helps content teams write pages that cover a topic well. It suggests the terms to include, drafts and edits with AI, and tracks queries in Google, ChatGPT and Gemini. Its customers include large companies, and the price starts at $129 a month.

Meelu is for a founder or a small team doing their own marketing. It reads your site and your Search Console data, picks the search a new page should target, writes it with links to your existing pages, and checks it. Content is one part of the app. Meelu also does technical SEO, GEO and data analytics.
