Frequently asked

About AI tools for agencies

What's the best AI tool for agencies?
For copy at scale, Jasper is still the agency default. For creative, Midjourney + Photoshop AI. For SEO, Surfer or Frase. For client reporting, tools with native GA4 + Search Console AI summaries.
Can agencies white-label AI output?
In most cases yes for the content itself. Some vendors require you to disclose AI usage in the contract or on the deliverable — always check the plan's terms.
How do agencies price AI-assisted work?
Most keep the same project fee and pocket the margin. A minority pass the productivity savings on to win competitive pitches. Neither is wrong — depends on positioning.
