AlsoAsked vs Frase: which SEO tool fits your team?

AlsoAsked

Strong for question-led keyword discovery and content ideation, especially long-tail and intent expansion.

Public pages show visual graphs of live PAA data, Deep Search returning about 150 questions per query, bulk upload, CSV export, and a Dreams case study citing a 59 percent increase in long-tail keywords.

Frase

Strong SERP-grounded topic and content research, but the reviewed pages do not document a dedicated keyword database workflow.

Frase says it studies what ranks for a topic and provides research-backed briefs. https://www.frase.io/pricing

AlsoAsked

Helpful for planning content, but it does not appear to write, optimize, or publish finished SEO articles natively.

The homepage positions AlsoAsked for understanding users, helpful content, EEAT, and content planning; no public evidence was found for a built-in content editor, article generator, or CMS publishing workflow.

Frase

Generates on-brand finished drafts, images, and revisions.

The agent page states Frase researches a query, drafts the page and images in brand voice, and scores fixes. https://www.frase.io/features/agent

AlsoAsked

Good search-intent context from PAA data and location-language targeting, with limited first-party or third-party business context.

AlsoAsked gathers Google PAA questions, supports country, city, language and search depth, stores search history on paid plans, and exposes API/webhook flows; public pages do not show CRM, analytics, support, or internal knowledge ingestion.

Frase

Carries brand, competitor, first-party visitor-question, and published-site context through the loop.

The homepage describes learning the brand, competitor picture, and questions visitors ask via Frase Answers. https://www.frase.io/

AlsoAsked

Relevant to AI-search planning because it maps conversational question paths, but it is not a full AI citation tracking or GEO execution platform.

The homepage says users can map intent for AI and traditional search, improve AI visibility, and map the conversation after an initial prompt; no public evidence was found for AI answer monitoring or citation measurement.

Frase

AI-visibility monitoring and GEO scoring are core capabilities.

The pricing page includes AI Visibility and the homepage describes monitoring citations across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, and Google AI. https://www.frase.io/pricing

AlsoAsked

Moderate GEO readiness through conversational intent mapping and question coverage for AI-usable content.

AlsoAsked describes AI search as ongoing conversations and helps identify follow-up questions to build into AI content and research processes, but it does not directly publish structured answer assets or monitor LLM citations.

Frase

Provides GEO scores, citation tracking, and AI-search fixes in the publishing loop.

Frase’s homepage says drafts are scored for SEO and GEO and that AI citations are monitored after publishing. https://www.frase.io/

AlsoAsked

Technical SEO coverage is mostly absent outside search research inputs.

Public pages did not show crawling, indexability audits, status code checks, schema auditing, site health monitoring, or technical remediation workflows.

Frase

Site auditing and page-level SEO readiness are present, but the reviewed first-party material does not establish a full technical crawler suite.

The homepage says Frase crawls a site page by page, scores SEO and AI readiness, and ranks fixes by impact. https://www.frase.io/

AlsoAsked

Export and API surfaces support handoff, but direct CMS publishing or approval workflow is not publicly shown.

Features include PNG export, CSV export, bulk searches, search history, API access, and webhooks, while the public site does not describe native WordPress, Shopify, or editorial publishing destinations.

Frase

Direct CMS publishing and hosted FraseCMS are supported.

The pricing page lists one-click publishing to WordPress, Webflow, Sanity, Wix, or FraseCMS. https://www.frase.io/pricing

AlsoAsked

Limited measurement support through search history and usage stats, not rank or performance tracking.

The pricing page lists 24 hour, 1 month, and 1 year search history by plan, and the homepage publishes aggregate user searches and results; no public rank tracking or traffic analytics module was found.

Frase

Tracks Google rankings, AI citations, AI visibility, and decay.

The homepage explicitly lists ranking tracking, AI-citation monitoring, and Content Guard decay detection. https://www.frase.io/

AlsoAsked

Unlimited users on paid plans make team access practical, but public evidence for approvals or workflow roles is limited.

The pricing page lists unlimited users for Basic, Lite, and Pro, but public pages do not show role permissions, briefs, comments, or approval queues.

Frase

Team seats, calendars, reports, and enterprise controls support collaboration.

Pricing lists multiple seats, a content calendar, client-ready exports, white-label reports, portals, SSO/SAML, and an account manager. https://www.frase.io/pricing

AlsoAsked

Accessible pricing and free monthly credits make the tool easy to try for a focused research job.

The pricing page advertises free monthly search credits and paid annual equivalents from $12 per month, with clear credit limits and plan inclusions.

Frase

Self-serve plans begin at a public price with a no-card trial, though meaningful scale is paid.

The homepage says self-serve from day one and the pricing page publishes Starter at $39/month yearly with a 7-day no-card trial. https://www.frase.io/pricing

AlsoAsked

Meaningful trial access exists through free monthly credits, but heavier exports and API access require paid plans.

The pricing page says non-registered users can trial the product with free monthly search credits, while Deep Search, CSV export, bulk searches, and API access appear on paid tiers.

Frase

A free trial and free FraseCMS hosting are available, but the core product is not a permanently free plan.

The pricing page documents a 7-day trial and FraseCMS Free at $0 with 100,000 page views/month. https://www.frase.io/pricing

AlsoAsked

Strong public usage proof from registered-user, search, and result counters plus recognizable customer logos.

The homepage showed 115,262 registered users, 10,266,677 user searches, 312,207,549 results, and logos including Tripadvisor, Lego, Deloitte, Gymshark, Nerdwallet, Oracle, Indeed, Ikea, Riverside, and KPMG.

Frase

First-party positioning indicates thousands of teams, but no exact customer count is supplied.

The pricing page says “Thousands of teams already run on Frase.” https://www.frase.io/pricing

AlsoAsked

Useful inside agentic workflows through API, asynchronous jobs, and webhooks, but it does not appear to autonomously execute SEO changes.

API documentation describes sync and async searches, retrieving results, search history, account credits, and webhooks for search status; the product remains a research data source rather than an autonomous SEO agent.

Frase

The product has a named AI SEO Agent with natural-language workflows, API, and automation hooks.

The agent page describes research, briefs, drafts, scores, clustering, repurposing, and publishing in one chat; the API page describes REST API and webhooks. https://www.frase.io/features/agent https://www.frase.io/features/api-integrations

AlsoAsked

Easy for focused question research with some automation through bulk and API features, but content strategy and implementation remain manual.

The homepage search flow is simple, pricing exposes bulk and API access on Pro, and docs support webhooks, but users still analyze results and implement content or SEO changes elsewhere.

Frase

Autonomous publishing and approval-based Content Guard fixes are explicit, with customer rules controlling what goes live.

The agent page says publishing occurs on approval and Content Guard proposes fixes for approval; pricing says the agent can publish on its own when enabled. https://www.frase.io/features/agent https://www.frase.io/pricing
