| Which plan to pick | Data-Driven is where the scores start to use your own results, which is the reason to pay for Anyword over a cheaper writer. If you only want an AI copywriter with brand voice, Starter is enough, or use a chat assistant. | Basic does the job for a solo marketer or founder who wants a serious swipe file. Step up to Workflow when you have a team or you want to track specific competitors and connect it to Claude. Agency only makes sense if you brief for many brands. | Basic covers a business sending a few campaigns a month. Medium is the better fit for teams and small agencies, where 50 exports and two seats run out quickly. Extra members cost $10 each a month. |
