Skribra writes thirty articles a month for $75 and keeps maintaining them. Blogged writes them, hosts the blog and reports conversion, from $99 a month.
Skribra's top tier publishes the same thirty articles a month as Blogged Starter for less money, and it does something Blogged does not: five named agents keep refreshing, retitling and relinking articles after publication as Search Console data arrives. Blogged does two things Skribra does not. It hosts the blog rather than publishing into a CMS you already run, and it captures newsletter leads so a post can be joined to a signup. Blogged starts at $99 per month per Project.

| Capability | Blogged | Skribra |
|---|---|---|
| Hosts the blog for you | Yes Blogged hosts the blog: a Blogged subdomain immediately, your own subdomain once connected, or your path by reverse proxy. | No Skribra publishes into a site you already run and hosts nothing of its own. |
| Publishes into an existing CMS | No Blogged owns the destination rather than pushing posts into WordPress, Shopify or Webflow. | Yes WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, Notion or a plain webhook, with IndexNow fired the moment a post goes live. |
| Runs unattended once configured | Yes Full autopilot is on every sold plan, with governance deciding whether a post is allowed to go live. | Yes Setup is described as two steps, after which strategy, writing, publishing and upkeep run on their own. |
| Buy once rather than subscribe | No Blogged is sold as a monthly or annual subscription per Project. | Yes A one time licence at $199 covers up to ten projects if you supply your own model key. |
| Content stays yours after cancelling | Partial Posts live on the blog Blogged publishes, which stays available while the Project is active. | Yes Articles were published into your own CMS, and it states plainly that they stay yours after cancellation. |
| Capability | Blogged | Skribra |
|---|---|---|
| Refreshes articles that lose ground | No Blogged offers metered revisions but has no automatic cycle that finds and refreshes slipping posts. | Yes A named agent revisits slipping articles with fresh material, on the Pro tier only. |
| Rewrites weak titles automatically | No Titles can be changed by revising a post, but nothing looks for underperforming ones on its own. | Yes One of the maintenance agents exists specifically to give an article a better title. |
| Links new posts from older ones | Yes Posts are interlinked as the archive grows, so later posts strengthen earlier ones without manual placement. | Yes An agent adds links from older articles to newer ones as part of the maintenance pass. |
| Upkeep included on the entry plan | Partial Revisions are on every sold plan, 1 per post on Starter, though there is no automatic cycle at any tier. | No All five maintenance agents are on the $75 Pro tier only, not on Starter or Growth. |
| Search Console feeding decisions | Yes Search Console sync is on every sold plan rather than an upper tier upgrade. | Yes The maintenance agents act on Search Console numbers rather than on a fixed schedule. |
| Capability | Blogged | Skribra |
|---|---|---|
| Plans topic clusters rather than single keywords | Yes Topics are generated under approved Content Directions, so the archive builds a subject rather than a list. | Yes Clusters map keywords to intents on a rolling calendar, explicitly avoiding cannibalization and duplicate titles. |
| Produces competitor comparison pages | Partial Competitor watch tracks 7 rivals on Starter and informs Topics, though comparison pages are not a distinct output type. | Yes One research pass per competitor is reused for four pages: you against them, alternatives, pricing and reviews. |
| Cites real sources | Yes Posts carry sources, so a claim can be traced rather than taken on trust. | Yes Articles are researched against the live web at the moment of writing and cite inline. |
| Generated images with each post | Yes Images are metered per plan, 150 a month on Starter and 450 on Ultra Growth. | Not published Images appear in its described pipeline, but no allowance or per plan limit is published. |
| Reports on conversion, not only ranking | Yes Newsletter lead capture is on every paid plan, so a published post can be joined to what it brought in. | No Search Console drives maintenance, but no lead capture or conversion reporting is described. |
Skribra Pro publishes thirty articles a month for less than Blogged Starter charges for thirty posts, and its lower tiers go well below that. There is no reading of this comparison where that is not an advantage, and burying it would be the fastest way to lose a reader's trust. What the difference buys on our side is the blog itself, so nothing has to be stood up or maintained, plus lead capture that ties a signup to the post that produced it. If you already run a CMS you are happy with, and rankings are the metric you judge content on, the cheaper product is the better buy.
Skribra's maintenance layer is the strongest thing about it and the clearest capability gap on our side. Named agents watch Search Console and go back into live articles: a better title here, fresh material in a piece that is slipping, a link from an older post, a pass over the oldest article in the archive. Blogged offers metered revisions and nothing automatic. The one qualification worth making is that all five agents sit on the $75 Pro tier, so the cheaper plans publish without maintaining, and a buyer comparing $19 against our entry price is not comparing the same product.
Most products in this category hedge between agencies, bloggers, local businesses and software companies. Skribra does not: its pricing is described as founder friendly, its FAQ is framed as the questions founders always ask, and its headline proof is a SaaS site whose founder shipped product while the content compounded. That is close to Blogged's reader. The consequence is that this comparison turns almost entirely on the destination and on measurement, rather than on whether either product is aimed at you.
This page is published by Blogged, so treat it as a vendor comparison. These are the points where Skribra is the stronger answer, stated plainly.
Read their own material at skribra.comBlogged 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 presents a 3 day trial, which takes a card. A link under it takes a one-time Free allowance on your first Project instead: no card, claimed with a public post about your new blog. Nothing expires while that allowance lasts; a spent Free Project is archived after 14 days and unpublished after 30 unless you upgrade. When you need more, Blogged paid plans start at $99 per month per Project with 30 published posts a month.
See full pricingThe refreshes, retitles and relinking stop with the subscription and Blogged does not replace them. If a meaningful share of your traffic sits in articles those agents have been keeping current, that is a real loss to plan around rather than a feature to look for later.
Skribra published into your own CMS, so those articles keep their URLs and stay where they are, and it says plainly they remain yours. Blogged publishes to a blog it hosts. Either run the two archives apart, or serve the Blogged blog from your existing path by reverse proxy so a reader sees one site.
Skribra arranges work as topic clusters with intents beneath them, which maps almost exactly onto Content Directions in Blogged. Restating the two or three clusters that were working is a better import than a keyword list, because Blogged generates its own Topics under a Direction once approved.
Search Console you already had, and Skribra used it well. Newsletter lead capture is the signal it never gave you, and it is on every paid Blogged plan. Connecting it before the first post means the blog can be judged on signups from the start rather than on position alone.
Short answers to the questions buyers ask before they start with either product.
Yes. Its Pro tier publishes 30 articles a month for $75, against $99 for 30 posts on Blogged Starter, and its lower tiers start at $19 for five articles. What the difference buys is the hosted blog and conversion reporting, neither of which Skribra provides.
Yes, and this is a real gap on our side. Five named agents watch Search Console and go back into live articles to rewrite titles, refresh slipping pieces, add links from older posts and update the oldest article. The qualification is that all five are on the $75 Pro tier, so the cheaper plans publish without maintaining.
No. It publishes into a CMS you already run, covering WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, Notion or a plain webhook, and fires IndexNow when a post goes live. Blogged hosts the blog itself, so the destination is part of what you buy rather than something you have to bring and administer.
A $199 payment where you supply your own model key and cover tokens directly, after which it says you are never billed again. It covers up to ten projects at up to 30 articles a month each, includes the maintenance agents and future updates, and is a commercial shape no subscription product can match over several years.
Between 1,700 to 3,300 words, written in your tone and researched against the live web at the moment of writing, with citations inline and schema and internal links included. Blogged writes to the depth a Topic needs rather than to a stated range, and meters images as part of the plan, which Skribra does not publish a figure for.
Blogged presents a 3 day trial that takes a card, and offers a one-time Free allowance on a new account's first Project instead: 3 posts, 40 Topics, 15 delivered images and 7 competitors. Free takes no card, and you claim it rather than receive it: post publicly on X about your new blog, naming @blogged_app and your blog address, then paste that link within a day of posting. A verified email address is needed too. No clock runs on the allowance itself. Once the posts or images are used up, the Project is archived after 14 days and its blog is unpublished after 30 unless you choose a paid plan; upgrading reverses both.
