- The blog has to earn something you can name. Insights reports CTA views with a stated denominator, click through, lead conversion, subscriber outcomes and acquisition attribution on the site Blogged hosts. auto-post.io does not own the destination, so nothing at €9.99 can report that.
- The articles have to be right about your own product, not just about the topic. The Knowledge Engine holds source bound product, competitor and keyword facts with freshness monitoring and conflict resolution, and excludes stale or conflicting entries from reuse.
- You want a documented reason a post did not go out. Content Directions, a governed review queue and publication holds decide whether Autopilot is allowed to publish, rather than leaving it to whether somebody remembered to look.
- You do not want to run a CMS at all. Blogged builds, themes, hosts and maintains the blog site, with navigation, on site reader search, related reading, newsletter signup and product CTAs already on it.
- The images need to show the actual product. Blogged discovers and captures visuals from your site, holds them for approval, places the approved one exactly, and composites your approved logo after generation instead of letting the model draw it.
Blogged vs auto-post.io: cheap volume, or a blog run for you
auto-post.io publishes AI articles into WordPress, Wix, Webflow, or Payload from €9.99 a month. Blogged plans, writes, and hosts the blog itself, from $99.
- auto-post.io is €9.99 for about 40 posts a month. Blogged Starter is $99 for 30. That gap is real and this page does not argue with it.
- auto-post.io pushes posts into WordPress, Wix, Webflow or Payload. Blogged hosts the blog and reports what it converts.
- auto-post.io has a free tier with no card. Blogged asks for a card and gives you 3 days.
- Review is optional in auto-post.io. Blogged publishes only after approved rules and checks pass.
- What it is
- An autonomous blog platform that plans, writes, optimizes, schedules and publishes to a blog site it hosts for you.A low cost publishing tool that turns a topic and a credit balance into scheduled articles inside a site you already run.
- Publishing model
- A blog site Blogged hosts: a Blogged subdomain to start, blog.yourcompany.com once you connect a domain, or your existing path by reverse proxy.A push into one of four destinations: WordPress, Webflow, Wix or Payload CMS. There is no hosted option.
- Entry price
- $99 a month per Project, or $990 a year. Unlimited team seats on every paid plan.€9.99 a month, in euros, billed monthly. A free tier sits below it and €49.99 is the top published plan. No annual pricing is published.
- Content volume
- 30, 60 or 90 posts a month by plan, at $99, $169 and $229.Credits, not posts. 10,000 credits is about 40 articles, 20,500 is about 80, 55,000 is about 200. A longer article or a costlier model draws down more.
- Free trial
- 3 days, with a card taken at checkout.A free plan rather than a trial: 1,000 credits and about 4 posts a month, every feature included, no card. No separate trial on the paid tiers is published.
- Best for
- SaaS founders who want the blog itself run, governed and measured, without owning a CMS.Solo builders, side projects and small agencies who need publishing volume at the lowest possible monthly cost, on sites they already have.
What is the difference between Blogged and auto-post.io?
Blogged is an autonomous blog platform for SaaS founders. It plans, writes, optimizes, schedules, and publishes to a blog site it hosts on your subdomain, then reports on search and conversion. auto-post.io is a low cost AI publishing tool that generates articles from a credit balance and pushes them into WordPress, Wix, Webflow, or Payload CMS. The sharpest difference is scope: auto-post.io buys output, Blogged buys the program around it. auto-post.io starts at €9.99 a month; Blogged starts at $99 per Project.
Written by the Blogged team. auto-post.io details were checked against public pages on August 2026 at auto-post.io. Products change, so verify anything that decides your purchase.
These two tools are bought for different jobs.
Pick by the job you actually need done this quarter, not by the longer feature list.
- Your whole content budget is under twenty euros a month. This is the honest one. €9.99 for about 40 posts, or €19.99 for about 80, is roughly a tenth of what Blogged costs, and no framing changes that. For a side project, a validation experiment, or a blog that has not yet earned a line in the budget, it is the right call.
- You want to see real output before you spend anything. The free tier is a permanent plan, not a countdown: every feature, about four posts a month, no card. You can run it for a month and decide with evidence.
- Your blog already lives in WordPress, Wix, Webflow or Payload and it is not moving. auto-post.io publishes into all four. Blogged publishes into none of them, and for a site you are keeping, that is the end of the conversation.
- You publish outside English. auto-post.io generates in 29 languages and runs its interface in three. Blogged does not publish a multilingual generation capability at all.
- You run many small sites, or client sites, on one bill. Unlimited connected websites and unlimited campaigns are included on every tier including the free one, and agencies can keep the tool invisible to the client. Blogged prices per Project and caps a workspace at twenty.
Blogged vs auto-post.io, capability by capability.
Every row states what each product publishes about itself. A blank claim is recorded as not published rather than assumed absent.
Strategy and research
| Capability | Blogged | auto-post.io |
|---|---|---|
| Automated topic supply you can approve | Yes Autopilot keeps a bounded supply of Topics under approved Content Directions and refills it as posts are used. Plans allow 40, 80 or 120 Topics a month. | Partial You give a campaign topics and keywords and review drafts before they publish. The vendor's product pages do not describe scoring on suggested topics, and the only mentions of traffic or difficulty scores sit on templated keyword landing pages rather than in the product material. |
| A maintained fact base the writing is bound to | Yes The Knowledge Engine holds source bound product facts, competitor facts and keyword knowledge, with official sources, freshness monitoring, conflict resolution and controlled refresh. Stale, rejected, superseded or conflicting entries are not eligible for normal reuse. | No A campaign carries topics, keywords, a cadence and a model choice. There is no stored, verified fact base about your product that later articles are checked against. |
| Recurring competitor monitoring that feeds topics | Yes Competitor Watch runs weekly over approved competitors' feeds, sitemaps and bounded public pages. Signals carry source evidence and never become Topics without human review. 7, 15 or 25 tracked competitors by plan. | Not published A campaign carries topics, keywords, a cadence and a model choice. The vendor does not describe a competitor monitoring feature, and no named topic discovery tool appears on its product pages. |
| An approved strategy that limits what may be written | Yes Content Directions are approved rules that bound what Autopilot may write, and full Autopilot publishes only inside them. Changing the strategy is an approval step, not a setting. | No A campaign sets topics, keywords, tone, language, model and cadence. Those are generation settings rather than a rule set that a finished article is checked against. |
Writing and optimization
| Capability | Blogged | auto-post.io |
|---|---|---|
| A readiness score before a post can go out | Yes The editor scores readiness, lists blockers, breaks the score down by SEO pillar, orders the priority fixes, and carries a separate GEO checklist. | Partial The vendor's marketing demo shows a generated article with an optimized title, a meta description, H1 to H3 structure, a keyword density figure and image alt text. No per article readiness score or blocker list is published. |
| Internal linking across your own posts | Yes Internal links are managed in the editor across the posts Blogged hosts, and the blog site generates related reading between them. | Yes Automatic internal linking is listed on every tier including the free one, and the vendor states links are rebuilt as the content library grows. |
| Sources and citations attached to the article | Yes The editor carries a sources and citations panel, and generation draws on the official sources recorded against verified facts in the Knowledge Engine. | Not published Citations are mentioned on the vendor's templated keyword landing pages. The pricing page, integrations page and documentation do not list citations as a feature, so the behavior is not something a buyer can confirm before subscribing. |
| Images that show your real product | Yes Blogged discovers site images and rendered page captures, holds them in a review queue until a member approves them, places an approved visual exactly, and composites your approved logo after generation. 150 to 450 images a month by plan. | No Images are either generated by one of the image models or picked from the Pexels stock library at ten credits. There is no capture or approval path for your own product screenshots. |
| Choice of the underlying AI model | No Blogged does not expose model selection or per article generation cost. The plan price is what you pay and the model is the platform's decision. | Yes 69 text and image models across OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, Mistral, Meta and others, chosen per campaign, each with its credit price shown. The vendor states it adds no margin to AI cost. |
| Article generation in languages other than English | No Blogged does not publish a multilingual generation capability. Assume English until it does. | Yes 29 content generation languages on every tier including the free one, with the app interface itself available in English, French and Spanish. |
Publishing and hosting
| Capability | Blogged | auto-post.io |
|---|---|---|
| Where a finished post actually ends up | Yes On a blog site Blogged builds and hosts: a Blogged subdomain to start, blog.yourcompany.com when you connect a domain, or your existing path such as yourcompany.com/blog through a reverse proxy. | Yes In a CMS you already run. WordPress, Webflow, Wix and Payload CMS are the four destinations listed on the integrations page, with API access offered for anything else. |
| Pushes posts into WordPress, Webflow or Wix | No Blogged does not push into an existing CMS. It is the destination rather than a plugin, and that is the main reason to rule it out. | Yes An official WordPress.org plugin paired with an API key, OAuth connections for Webflow and Wix, and an API connection for Payload CMS. |
| A designed blog site you do not have to build | Yes Maintained themes, brand identity, typography and layout, homepage content, featured stories, navigation, on site reader search, related reading and consent controls all ship with the site. | No auto-post.io writes into a site you already have. The design, templates, URL structure and hosting stay entirely your responsibility. |
| Scheduling and cadence you control | Yes Autopilot holds the publishing schedule and cadence, and the command center shows current status, scheduled publications and an activity and recovery trace. | Yes A campaign sets the cadence and a content calendar holds the queue. Articles can be scheduled or published immediately, across every connected site. |
| How many sites one subscription covers | Partial One Project per site, priced separately, with a discount by position: Projects 2 to 4 take 10 percent off, 5 to 10 take 15 percent, 11 to 20 take 20 percent. A workspace holds at most 20 Projects. | Yes Unlimited connected websites and unlimited campaigns on every tier, including the free one. Volume is limited by the shared credit balance rather than by site count. |
Measurement and governance
| Capability | Blogged | auto-post.io |
|---|---|---|
| Google Search Console reporting inside the product | Yes Insights reports clicks, impressions, CTR, average position, top queries and top pages from a connected property, plus indexing coverage, on Google's finalized windows. | Not published Two of the vendor's own sources disagree. Its app description, pricing page, integrations page and documentation list no analytics surface, while some of its keyword landing pages claim Search Console and GA4 integration and rank tracking. Confirm before buying on it. |
| Conversion measurement on the published blog | Yes A CTA view counts only when at least 25 percent of the surface enters the viewport, so the denominator is stated. Insights adds click through, CTA breakdowns, lead conversion, subscriber outcomes, channels and campaigns. | No auto-post.io does not own the destination site, so measuring what an article converts stays with whatever analytics your CMS or your own tags already run. |
| Newsletter signup and lead capture on the blog itself | Yes Newsletter signup and product CTAs are part of the blog site on every plan, with lead capture webhooks and subscriber outcome reporting behind them. | No Articles are delivered into a site auto-post.io does not own, so signup forms and CTAs belong to your CMS and whatever you have already built there. |
| A path that can refuse to publish | Yes Full Autopilot publishes only after approved Content Directions and governance checks pass. A publication hold blocks publication outright, and the review queue is governed rather than advisory. | Partial Drafts land in a posts view with a full editor, and you can review and edit before they go live. The vendor describes that review as optional, and no check that stops a scheduled publication is documented. |
| A published statement of what the product will not claim | Yes Blogged publishes its boundaries: grounding constrains reuse rather than certifying correctness, and Insights makes no person level identity or causal attribution claims. | Yes auto-post.io states that nobody can guarantee how or when an answer engine surfaces content, and describes itself as a workflow layer rather than a ranking guarantee. That is more candor than most of this category offers. |
Four decisions that separate the two.
One is priced like a utility. One is priced like a program.
auto-post.io sells credits at close to what the models cost, and says so: a standard article runs around 250 credits, which is roughly a quarter of a euro, and the effective rate barely improves between €9.99 and €49.99. That is a metered generation service, and it is priced honestly as one. Blogged's $99 is not a per article price at all. It buys the site, the fact base the writing is grounded in, the approval rules, the imagery pipeline and the reporting, and the post count is a cap on that rather than the thing being sold. Neither is overpriced for what it is, and the only question is which one you are buying, because at €9.99 nobody should expect the second.
- $99 a month per Project covers strategy, writing, imagery, publishing, hosting and reporting in one subscription.
- Every feature is on every tier. Starter, Growth and Ultra Growth differ by volume, not capability.
- Unlimited team seats on every paid plan, with multi Project discounts from the second Project onward.
- 30, 60 or 90 posts a month, stated as a limit rather than an estimate.
- €9.99 for about 40 posts, €19.99 for about 80, €49.99 for about 200.
- A free tier with every feature and no card, which you can run indefinitely.
- The vendor states it takes no margin on AI cost, and shows each model's credit price.
- Extra credits are sold outright, so a busy month does not force a plan change.
An article delivered into your CMS, or a blog you can follow to a lead
auto-post.io finishes when the post appears in WordPress, Webflow, Wix or Payload. What happens next belongs to you: the design, the CTAs, the forms, the analytics. Blogged does not stop there, because it owns the destination. The blog site carries newsletter signup and product CTAs by default, and Insights reports CTA views against a stated denominator, click through, lead conversion, subscriber outcomes and acquisition attribution. If you already have a site with tracking and forms you trust, that ownership is redundant and you should not pay for it, and if you do not, it is most of the difference in price.
- A hosted blog site with maintained themes, navigation, on site reader search and related reading.
- Newsletter signup and product CTAs ship with the site on every plan.
- A CTA view counts only when at least 25 percent of the surface enters the viewport.
- Search Console reporting, indexing coverage, lead conversion and subscriber outcomes in one place.
- One click publishing into WordPress, Webflow, Wix and Payload CMS, plus API access beyond them.
- Your existing design, URL structure, forms and analytics stay exactly where they are.
- Unlimited connected websites, so one subscription can feed a whole portfolio.
- A WordPress.org plugin rather than a bespoke integration, so setup is a familiar install.
A topic and a model, or a fact base about your own product
This is where the two products stop being comparable. auto-post.io starts from the topic you picked and the model you selected and writes a well structured article about that topic, which for a general interest blog is enough. Blogged keeps a Knowledge Engine instead: source bound product facts, competitor facts and keyword knowledge, each with the official source recorded, plus freshness monitoring, conflict resolution and controlled refresh, with stale or conflicting entries excluded from reuse. Blogged also states the limit plainly, that grounding constrains what a model reuses rather than certifying every claim. The difference only matters when the articles have to be right about your pricing, your integrations and your competitors, which is exactly when a blog stops being a side project.
- Source bound product, competitor and keyword facts, each with the official source recorded.
- Freshness monitoring, conflict resolution and controlled refresh, with stale entries excluded from reuse.
- A sources and citations panel in the editor, alongside the SEO and GEO checks.
- Approved product screenshots placed exactly, and your approved logo composited after generation.
- 69 models to choose from, so you can trade cost against quality per campaign.
- You give a campaign topics and keywords, and review drafts before they publish.
- A full editor for drafts before publication, and sync back to WordPress. The vendor does not publish how much revision history is retained.
- Articles are generated with meta tags, heading structure and alt text already set. The vendor does not publish a typical article length.
Review you might do, or a check that runs whether you do or not
Both products let a person read a draft first, and it would be unfair to say otherwise. auto-post.io lands drafts in a posts view with a real editor, and the vendor is straightforward that reviewing them is optional. Blogged makes the check structural: Content Directions are approved in advance, full Autopilot may only write and publish inside them, and a publication hold stops a post whatever the calendar says. The practical difference shows up in month four, when nobody is reading drafts any more. With auto-post.io the schedule keeps running, and with Blogged the system still has a stated reason to stop, and stops on its own.
- Content Directions are the approved strategy Autopilot is allowed to write inside.
- Assisted mode schedules drafts that wait for a person. Full mode may publish, but only after checks pass.
- Publication holds block publication, and the review queue is governed rather than advisory.
- Competitor signals never become Topics without human review.
- Drafts collect in a posts view before publication, with a full editor.
- The vendor states that generated content is original and does not copy from existing sources. It does not describe a plagiarism check or an SEO review that runs over a finished article as a separate step.
- Campaigns can be paused, and articles can be published manually rather than on the calendar.
- The vendor is explicit that approval is optional, which is at least a clear statement of the model.
What auto-post.io does well.
This page is published by Blogged, so treat it as a vendor comparison. These are the points where auto-post.io is the stronger answer, stated plainly.
Read their own material at auto-post.io- Price, by close to an order of magnitude. €9.99 a month buys about 40 posts and €19.99 buys about 80, against $99 for 30 on Blogged Starter. Nothing on this page closes that gap, and a buyer who needs volume per euro should take it.
- A free plan that does not expire. 1,000 credits, about 4 posts a month, every feature included, no card required. Blogged's trial is 3 days and takes a card at checkout, which is a much shorter look at a much larger commitment.
- It publishes into a CMS you already run. WordPress through an official plugin, Webflow CMS collections, the Wix blog and Payload CMS for headless stacks, plus API access for anything else. Blogged publishes into none of them.
- It writes in 29 languages and ships its own interface in English, French and Spanish. Blogged does not publish a multilingual generation capability, so a team publishing outside English has no route to it.
- You choose the model, and you can see what it costs. 69 text and image models are offered across several providers, each with its credit price shown, and the vendor states it takes no margin on AI cost. Blogged does not expose model choice or per article cost.
- Unlimited connected websites and unlimited campaigns on every tier, an agency posture that keeps the tool out of the client's view, and a mobile app on Google Play and the Microsoft Store. Blogged is priced per Project, capped at twenty per workspace, and has no mobile app.
What switching from auto-post.io involves.
Blogged starts from your website, a product description, or product documents. No existing blog is required, and published work you already own can come with you.
Blogged starts at $99 per month per Project with 30 published posts a month, and every plan opens with a three day free trial.
See full pricing- 01
Work out whether you have actually outgrown it
This is the first step and sometimes the last one. If the blog is still an experiment, if nobody is measuring it, and if the budget is real, €9.99 a month is the correct answer and Blogged is not. The signals that you have outgrown it are specific: articles are getting your own product wrong, nobody can say what the blog produced last quarter, or drafts have been publishing unread for months.
- 02
Bring the articles auto-post.io already published
Export from WordPress, Webflow, Wix or Payload and import as Markdown. Blogged can preserve the body exactly, or use a supported general article as a brief for a rewrite. Unsupported high risk types are rejected before they consume post quota, so a bad import does not cost you a post.
- 03
Decide the destination and plan the redirects
Blogged hosts the blog rather than writing into your CMS, so this is a move rather than a swap. Choose a hosted Blogged subdomain to start, blog.yourcompany.com once DNS is ready, or a reverse proxy under yourcompany.com/blog. Map redirects from the old URLs before you move traffic, and keep Search Console pointed at the property that will own the pages.
- 04
Build the fact base, then hand over the schedule
Onboarding starts from a website URL, a product description or product documents and builds the Knowledge Engine entries that later generation is grounded in. Spend the time there, since it is the part auto-post.io had no equivalent of. Start in assisted mode, and switch on full Autopilot once the Content Directions read the way you want them to.
Blogged and auto-post.io, answered.
Short answers to the questions buyers ask before they trial either product.
Is auto-post.io better than Blogged?
It depends on what the blog is for. If it is a side project, an early experiment, or a portfolio of small sites, auto-post.io is better, because €9.99 for about 40 posts is a tenth of the cost and Blogged offers nothing that justifies the difference at that stage. If the blog is an acquisition channel that has to be accurate about your product and accountable for leads, Blogged is built for that and auto-post.io is not.
How much does auto-post.io cost compared with Blogged?
auto-post.io is €9.99 a month for 10,000 credits, which it puts at about 40 posts, then €19.99 for about 80 and €49.99 for about 200. It also has a free tier of about 4 posts with no card. Blogged Starter is $99 a month per Project for 30 posts, or $990 a year, with Growth at $169 and Ultra Growth at $229. auto-post.io prices in euros and publishes no annual plan.
Why would anyone pay more when auto-post.io publishes more posts for less?
They should not, unless they need what the difference buys. auto-post.io sells generation and delivery close to model cost. Blogged's $99 also buys the hosted blog site, a maintained fact base about your product, approval rules that can block a publication, approved product screenshots, and reporting from impression to lead. If none of those change a decision you are making, buy the cheaper one.
What is the best auto-post.io alternative?
That depends which direction you are moving. Staying at the same price point, Next-Blog-AI sits near the same floor. One step up, SEObot and RepublishAI push articles into a CMS with more research and optimization behind them. If you are leaving because the blog now has to be measured and governed rather than merely filled, Blogged hosts the site and reports on what it converts, from $99 a month.
Can Blogged publish to WordPress?
No. Blogged hosts the blog itself rather than pushing posts into another system. You can serve it from a Blogged subdomain, from blog.yourcompany.com once you connect a domain, or under an existing path such as yourcompany.com/blog through a reverse proxy. auto-post.io does publish into WordPress, Webflow, Wix and Payload CMS, so if keeping the blog inside your CMS is a requirement, that is the one to take.
How does the auto-post.io free plan compare with the Blogged trial?
They are different offers. auto-post.io's free tier is a permanent plan: 1,000 credits, about 4 posts a month, every feature, no card. Blogged gives you 3 days and takes a card at checkout. For evaluating slowly and on your own schedule, auto-post.io is plainly the better offer, and that is worth saying rather than working around.
Does auto-post.io report on how the published articles perform?
Its own sources disagree, so treat it as unconfirmed. The app description, pricing page, integrations page and documentation describe campaigns, a content calendar, connected sites and a drafts view, with no analytics surface. A small number of its keyword landing pages do describe Search Console and GA4 connections and daily rank tracking. Ask before you buy on it. Blogged reports Search Console metrics, indexing coverage and conversion on the blog it hosts.
What does Blogged give up by hosting the blog itself?
Portability, mostly. You do not own the platform the blog runs on, and leaving means moving content and URLs. Blogged lowers that cost by exporting posts as a Markdown download or copy and by keeping revision history with selective restore, but it is a real dependency, and auto-post.io never creates it because your content was always in your own CMS. Weigh that before choosing a hosted blog.
