In their own words
KoalaWriter
KoalaWriter creates long-form articles using deep research, live search-result analysis, brand knowledge and automatic internal linking. It sits within Koala AI, which also includes Brand DNA, KoalaChat, KoalaImages, KoalaLinks and KoalaMagnets. Brand DNA’s SEO agent can use Search Console and Analytics data alongside keyword, backlink, search-result and competitor information to plan content. Publishing options include one-click delivery to WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, Ghost and custom webhooks. Writers get eight content templates, brand voice controls and support for more than 100 languages. The service is available on the web and through an API. New accounts receive 5,000 free words and 25 credits without a credit card. Article generation has a separate word allowance, while platform credits are shared across other Koala tools, agent use, API access and MCP research. Paid plans start with Starter at $25 a month, including 45,000 words and 500 credits. The Koala AI MCP is included with paid plans; free accounts cannot connect an app.
