Scalenut

What is Scalenut?

Scalenut started as an AI article writer and is now sold as a GEO (generative engine optimization) platform: it tracks whether ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Grok mention your brand, then helps you write content to change that. It suits SEO teams and agencies. A blogger who only needs a draft generator is paying for a lot of tracking they will not use.

What changed

Our old listing described a plain AI text generator with a plagiarism checker. The current homepage is organised around Track, Understand and Execute: brand-mention tracking and prompt coverage, content gap and citation analysis, then an article writer, content optimizer, audit tool and GEO score. There is also a backlinks marketplace and a Social Upreach product with Reddit tracking, plus expert-managed services where a strategist directs AI agents. The footer names Scalenut Inc.; headquarters and founding year are not stated on the pages we opened.

Plans and the limits that matter

As of October 2026, monthly billing: Starter $59, Plus $89, Professional $199. Annual billing per month: $21, $31 and $70. Starter includes 5 articles a month on monthly billing and 15 on annual, with 10 tracked prompts and one workspace. Plus gives 30 or 90 articles, 25 prompts and 2 workspaces. Professional gives 75 or 225 articles, 100 prompts and unlimited workspaces. A VIP service tier is custom priced.

Note the annual quota is three times the monthly one at a much lower per-month rate, so the headline $21 is only reachable by paying for a year upfront.

Trial and refunds

Monthly plans advertise a 7-day free trial; the page does not mention one for annual plans. The promotional offer is marked non-refundable, and no general refund policy is shown on the pricing page. An AI Detector and Humanizer add-on includes 50k words per month of humanization.

Who should skip it

Skip it if you want a cheap writing assistant, if you cannot commit to a year, or if your clients do not care about AI-answer visibility.

Decision rule: start on a monthly plan with the 7-day trial, check the tracked prompts against your real topics, and move to annual only if the tracking proves useful.
