Problem or Opportunity
It takes up to 12 hours for content strategist or content writer to do in-depth niche research before he starts to write on some particular topic. In most cases, he misses some entities and concepts that could add more expertise to his work. As a result, the author produces text of average quality that does not cover topic entirely, and does not contain concepts that would expand the content of his article.

Indirect competitors. There are Ryte.com, Seolyze.com, Text-tools.com, PageOptimizer.pro, Tfidftool.com, Copywritely.com, SEO Writing Assistant by Semrush.com, Website Auditor by link-assistant.com.
