Frase Pricing 2026: Plans, Features & SEO Content Value
Frase repriced substantially in 2026: the old $15/mo Solo tier is gone, and plans now start at $49/mo ($39/mo billed yearly). Frase is no longer the budget option in SEO content optimization — it now prices head-to-head with Surfer SEO. Here is the verified breakdown of every current plan.

Is Frase Worth It?
Frase Starter at $49/mo ($39/mo billed yearly) includes 10 articles, 50 audit pages, and 1 site. That works out to roughly $4-5 per optimized article — reasonable if you publish weekly, hard to justify below that volume. The 7-day free trial (no credit card) is the right way to find out. Note that older reviews citing Frase at $15/mo describe pricing that no longer exists.
Annual vs Monthly Billing
Annual billing cuts roughly 20% off every tier: Starter $49 → $39/mo, Professional $129 → $103/mo, Scale $299 → $239/mo. The 7-day free trial requires no credit card, so validate on real briefs before committing to annual.

Cost Per Unit
On Starter at $39/mo (annual) with 10 articles, each optimized article costs about $3.90. Professional at $103/mo with 40 articles is about $2.58 per article and adds 3 seats. If you produce fewer than 4 articles a month, per-article cost climbs steeply and a pay-as-you-go writer plus a one-off optimization pass may be cheaper.
How Frase Pricing Compares
Frase Starter ($49/mo, or $39 annual) now lands in the same bracket as Surfer SEO Discovery (€49/mo) — the old “Frase is 83% cheaper” framing is dead. Frase still bundles research, briefs, and AI writing in one flow; Surfer offers deeper SERP analytics and now sells AI-visibility tracking separately. At this price the choice is workflow preference, not budget.
