## AI tool for content research

AI tools can expedite research by analyzing data points, case studies, and keywords and generating topic ideas. I have found that some of these tools are highly effective and can significantly decrease the time spent on research.

### 1. Genei
    

Genei is a comprehensive research AI tool that helps you with academic writing, content production, and professional writing.

![Genei an AI competitor research tool](https://res.cloudinary.com/mailmodo/image/upload/f_auto,q_100/v1687877126/strapi/Genei_an_AI_competitor_research_tool_2d21e7c98d.png)

**What I liked:**

-   The tool is extremely easy to use, and the interface is also user-friendly.
    
-   The summarization feature is impressive as it provides a concise overview of over 50+ pages of information in a short amount of time.
    

  

**What I disliked:**

-   Summarize content only up to 100 pages, meaning if you want to summarize e-books or long reports, Genei might fall short of it.
    
-   Supports only one language.

 **Genei pricing**

-   Super easy to use.
    

  

**What I disliked:**

-   Kompyte's SEO analysis is limited to the keywords provided by the user. This may cause important keywords to be overlooked.
    
-   You need to spell the company name word by word. It can't bring in the company name if you make a spelling error.

Like other AI-based tools, Jasper.ai will only give you the best results if you know [how to write specific prompts](https://www.mailmodo.com/ai-prompts/).

  

![Jasper.ai content creator AI tool](https://res.cloudinary.com/mailmodo/image/upload/f_auto,q_100/v1687877131/strapi/image11_9c12e9504e.png)

If you're looking for a comprehensive content creation tool, Copy.ai has got you covered. You can use it to craft blog posts, emails, social media updates, ads, and more. With a wide range of features, Copy.ai makes generating ideas and editing content easy.

Here's a snapshot of prompt I feed Copy.ai  

![Copy.ai content creation tool](https://res.cloudinary.com/mailmodo/image/upload/f_auto,q_100/v1687877123/strapi/Copy_ai_content_creation_tool_acb3e80748.png)
  
  The tool gave me good suggestions along with many editing and saving options.
  
  ![Snapshot of all editing option available for the output generated by Copy.ai](https://res.cloudinary.com/mailmodo/image/upload/f_auto,q_100/v1687877134/strapi/image16_b617de91ac.png)


**What I liked:**

-   Premade prompts for various industries - marketing, PR, recruiting, and more.
    
-   Infobase, which allows you to save key information. For instance, you can create an Infobase about content editing and use that while writing prompts. It helps avoid repeating the same information again and again.
    
-   The output details include character and word count, save, remove, generate similar ideas, or copy.

-   The output seems generic even after giving detailed prompts.

### 6. Writesonic AI writer
    

Writesonic AI writer and Chatsonic feature are two of the tool's helpful features to help you generate the content, create briefs, and improve your day-to-day content workflow. I used Writesonic's chat sonic feature using this prompt:

  

Give me the 5 most relevant questions that you, as a content marketing manager, would ask while interviewing a potential candidate applying for the role of senior content writer.

  

The response it shared was relevant and helpful, as I know these are some of the questions every interviewer asks a potential content writer.

  

![Writesonic AI writer Chatsonic tool](https://res.cloudinary.com/mailmodo/image/upload/f_auto,q_100/v1687877129/strapi/Writesonic_AI_writer_Chatsonic_tool_bc37ccecca.png)

-   Huge library of prompt templates for different types of content such as email marketing, social media, general writing, or website copy.
    
-   Supports more than 20 languages, including Dutch, French, German, Polish, and Spanish.

## Content editing AI tools

These are some of my go-to tools and have been for a long time and help me 10X my content. These tools are essential in every marketer's kit, improving content readability and rewriting sentences.

### 7. Grammarly
    

Grammarly might already be a part of your productivity stack as it was one of the earliest AI editing tools and made a place for itself soon enough. But, apart from editing your content and checking the plagiarism score, you can now use it to generate ideas, create outlines, or summarize using its new feature - GrammarlyGO.

  

GrammarlyGO helps you rewrite sentences, generate content ideas, improve the tone of your writing, and more.

  

![Snapshot of GrammrlyGo's sentence rewrite feature](https://res.cloudinary.com/mailmodo/image/upload/f_auto,q_100/v1687877124/strapi/Grammrly_Go_sentence_rewrite_feature_6638af5522.png)

-   Sentence rewrite generates good output.
    
-   Super easy to use.

### 8. Wordtune
    

Wordtune is a new AI writing assistant that helps you summarize content, generate interesting ideas, and edit content.

  

I asked Wordtune to give me content briefs about SEO, but it delivered a generic response even after giving it a specific prompt. This is one of the limitations of Wordtune if you use it to generate briefs or ideas.

  

![Wordtune AI content creator tool](https://res.cloudinary.com/mailmodo/image/upload/f_auto,q_100/v1687877132/strapi/image12_4c958dc5f0.png)

-   Super easy to use, and the interface is user-friendly.
    
-   Create an analogy, emphasize a point, share counterarguments, and more with Wordtune spices.
    

  

**What I didn't like:**

-   The AI content generator didn't deliver the expected results. The content was way too generic. Even after continuous prompt iteration, the results were similar.

### 9. Hemingway editor

![Hemingway Editor - AI editing tool](https://res.cloudinary.com/mailmodo/image/upload/f_auto,q_100/v1687877133/strapi/image15_2f5459f0f2.png)

### 10. Prezent

Prezent is an AI-powered presentation and business storytelling tool designed for marketers, consultants, and sales teams. It helps you convert ideas, documents, and written content into structured, professional presentations without starting from a blank slide. Unlike design-heavy tools, Prezent focuses more on clarity, narrative flow, and business-ready structure. 

![Screenshot 2026-01-16 122110.png](https://res.cloudinary.com/mailmodo/image/upload/f_auto,q_100/v1768546292/strapi/Screenshot_2026_01_16_122110_8c4dd5ce3d.png)

**What I liked:**

-   User-friendly interface and easy to understand.
    
-   A huge number of tools to expedite the image and video editing process.
    
-   Option to train your AI model. It's interesting as you can get the best output from AI if you train it beforehand. For instance, you can upload 15-20 of your images and ask them to create a portrait based on those images. Unfortunately, it's a paid feature.
    

  

**What I disliked:**

-   No prompt library is a common feature among various productivity AI tools.
    
-   No option to download images in PNG or JPEG format.

Synthesis is an advanced AI video generation and editing tool. One key feature of this AI tool is its avatar and voice generation, which is commendable. You can choose from 140+ premade avatars and choose from 120 languages, tones, and paces of voice.

  

I used Sythesia's one free video option, which gave me this 10 seconds video. The avatar looks good, and the tone is also friendly. You can customize and create better videos if you buy one of their plans.

  

<div style="position: relative; overflow: hidden; padding-top: 56.25%;"><iframe src="https://https://share.synthesia.io/embeds/videos/b87d0682-bc48-4d6c-9c41-7251150f6086" loading="lazy" title="Synthesia video player - Your AI video" allow="encrypted-media; fullscreen;" style="position: absolute; width: 100%; height: 100%; top: 0; left: 0; border: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; overflow:hidden;"></iframe></div>

-   Even though they don't offer any free plan, you can create one free AI video using a predefined prompt and use case. The team sends you an AI-generated video via email.
    

  

**What I disliked:**

-   No free plan is available.
    
-   The facial expression and gestures of the avatar remain fixed, and there is no option to edit that.

-   You cannot interlink different boards which you want to as there might be overlapping tasks.

**What I disliked:**

-   The tool focuses only on inbox cleanup — it doesn’t draft or rewrite emails.
    
-   Doesn’t offer a native Windows application, so desktop use happens in the browser.
