Our verdict

Frase is a strong AI content optimization platform. It analyzes search results, builds content briefs, writes and scores content, and in 2026 added AI Search Tracking with separate SEO and AEO scores (Frase labels the second a GEO score), so it now monitors where AI engines cite you while it helps you write. If your bottleneck is producing optimized content, Frase is a capable, well-built choice. But Frase is built around content creation and scoring, and its visibility work centers on writing better pages. Citably is built around the action tool: it scans where AI engines cite you, then deploys interactive tools and AEO articles to your site and layers AI ad intercepts on top, all from one token wallet, with the cached AI answer behind every result. If you need to deploy the fix and run AI ads, not just write and score content, Citably gives you the action tool Frase does not center on.

Action Tool

Deploy the Fix, Not Just the Draft

Frase writes and scores content and can publish it to your site. Citably deploys interactive tools as well as AEO articles: comparison widgets, calculators, and finders that Frase does not build. The asset that earns the citation is often a working tool, not another page.

Frase’s visibility work centers on producing optimized pages. Citably ships the page and the tool, then layers AI ad intercepts on top, so the fix is deployed rather than drafted.

Pricing Model

Track and Act From One Screen

Frase added AI Search Tracking and AEO scoring, which is genuinely useful for a content team. Citably tracks the same signals and then acts: deploy from the same screen, funded by one token wallet, with Boost next, with a cached receipt behind every result.

There is no per-seat pricing and no tier-gating on the actions that move your visibility. The difference is whether the tool returns a better draft or ships the asset that earns the citation.

White Label

Full White-Label, Not Just a Content Tool

Frase is built for content teams to write and optimize in. Citably hands agencies the whole platform: a branded subdomain, your colors, your logo, and individual client accounts that never see the Citably name.

Agencies set their own markup and resell AI visibility as their own product, on the same wallet model that powers deployment. Your clients log into your brand, and you keep the margin.

We switched from a report-only tool. Being able to deploy a calculator and watch it pull citations within a week changed how we pitch clients.

One wallet for everything finally made the budget make sense. No more guessing which tier unlocks the feature I actually need this month.

The full white-label let us run visibility as our own product. Clients log into our brand, and the margin stays with us. That was the deciding factor.
