    Topic (Chia Labs, Inc)
    Great at providing content briefs as well as for seeing the types of topics that rank well competitively. It's also good with finding content that needs to be refreshed which is a super easy way to drive near term SEO results.

    Cons
    Topic (Chia Labs, Inc)
    • Using the GSC data to find new, adjacent content opportunities.
    • They are using GPT-3 for title generation and would love to see it used to provide more content suggestions beyond the titles/descriptions
    • Sometimes it doesn't surface 'questions' that people are asking related to lower volume terms but not sure of a way to solve that

    Topic (Chia Labs, Inc)
    Topic was way less costly than MarketMuse with similar functionality. It was agnostic to CMS (WordLift is designed for Wordpress only). So it was priced well with all the functionality we needed.

    Earlier, I used to use Keyword everywhere to find the keywords (well, I still use it) but after using TubeBuddy, I feel I have wasted my time to improve my video SEO which I can do easily with TubeBuddy.
