Machined

Machined is a content cluster automation platform for SEO. It takes a topic, researches and groups keywords into clusters, writes researched articles with citations, adds internal links between them, and publishes the finished cluster to WordPress or another CMS, replacing a workflow that normally spans several tools and many hours of manual work. It is built for local businesses, marketing agencies and SaaS startups that want to build topical authority at scale. Automated keyword research discovers and clusters hundreds of keywords and is designed to prevent keyword cannibalization. Articles are backed by citations drawn from high ranking and authoritative sources, with deep research and AI images available. Automated internal linking places anchor text across the cluster, and bulk publishing sends articles to connected sites in one click. Every plan includes unlimited projects, unlimited CMS connections and unlimited webhooks. Pricing is published in full. A 7 day free trial gives full access to the Launch plan with no credit card. Launch costs $19 per month for 30 articles and 2 team members, Growth $49 per month for 100 articles and 3 members, Pro $99 per month for 250 articles and 5 members, and Scale $249 per month for 750 articles and 10 members. Annual billing saves 25%. A BYOK plan costs $99 per month for up to 2,000 articles and 10 members, using the customer's own Anthropic, OpenAI, Google or OpenRouter keys; the vendor estimates around $0.20 per article in provider costs. Custom plans are available for higher volumes. The BYOK option separates the platform fee from AI model costs, which suits teams producing content at high volume.
