Everything you need to know about Breakout, from how credits work to what to expect from analyses and generated content.

General

What exactly is Breakout? +

Breakout is an SEO intelligence and content generation platform. It has two main features: SEO Intelligence analyzes your niche by querying traditional search engines or AI models (ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) to extract keywords, competitor analysis, and opportunities. Content Forge generates optimized articles based on those insights or your own sources.

What's the difference between traditional SEO and GEO? +

Traditional SEO analyzes Google search results to identify keywords and ranking competitors. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) queries AI models like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, and Grok to discover which brands they mention and in what contexts. GEO is essential because more users are asking AI instead of searching on Google.

Does Breakout replace my content team? +

No. Breakout is designed to empower your team, not replace it. It automates research (which typically takes 2-3 hours per article) and generates structured drafts. Your team focuses on adding brand voice, specific examples, and the human touch that differentiates content. The result: more quality articles in less time.

Credits and pricing

How do credits work? +

Breakout uses two types of credits: SEO and Content. SEO credits are used for analysis (1 credit = 1 complete analysis of a niche/query). Content credits are used to generate articles (1-3 credits depending on the tier chosen). Credits never expire and you can buy packs when you need them.

How much does an SEO/GEO analysis cost? +

A complete analysis costs 1 SEO credit. This includes: extracted keywords with difficulty and intent, analysis of up to 5 competitors, prioritized action roadmap, and in GEO mode, analysis of mentions across 5 AI models. With the 10 SEO credits pack (€20), each analysis costs €2.

How much does it cost to generate an article? +

It depends on the tier:
Tier 1 (Quick): 1 credit - Direct article generation.
Tier 2 (Guided): 2 credits - Includes outline approval before generation.
Tier 3 (Premium): 3 credits - Includes outline + fact-checking + refinement.

Do credits expire? +

No. Credits you buy are yours forever. Use them when you need them, without deadline pressure. This is especially useful for agencies or teams with variable workloads.

Is there a monthly subscription? +

No. Breakout works with prepaid credits, not subscriptions. You buy credits when you need them and use them at your own pace. No monthly commitments or automatic renewals.

SEO Intelligence

What's included in an SEO analysis? +

An SEO analysis includes: keyword extraction with relevance, estimated difficulty, and search intent; analysis of the top 5 competitors ranking for your query; content gap identification; and a prioritized action roadmap ordered by impact and effort.

What's included in a GEO analysis? +

GEO analysis queries 5 AI models (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Grok) with your query and analyzes the responses. It identifies which brands/products they mention, in what contexts, with what sentiment, and detects opportunities where your brand should appear but doesn't.

Can I export the results? +

Yes. You can export analysis results in CSV format (for spreadsheets) or PDF (for presentations to clients or internal stakeholders).

Content Forge

How long are the generated articles? +

Generated articles typically range from 1,500 to 2,500 words, depending on the topic and complexity. You can specify length preferences in the article configuration.

What sources can I use to generate content? +

You can provide: URLs of web pages as references, PDF or DOCX documents with relevant information, and your company context (name, industry, audience, tone of voice). The system uses these sources to generate more relevant content aligned with your brand.

What is Tier 3 fact-checking? +

The Premium tier includes automatic fact verification. The system reviews factual claims in the generated article and assigns a confidence score. Questionable data is flagged for manual review, reducing the risk of publishing incorrect information.

What formats can I export content in? +

Generated content includes meta title, meta description, and the complete article. You can export in Markdown (ideal for technical blogs), HTML (ready for CMS), or plain text. Articles come with SEO-optimized header structure.

What writing tones are available? +

You can choose from 5 tones: Professional (formal, corporate), Casual (conversational, friendly), Academic (technical, rigorous), Friendly (warm, accessible), and Authoritative (expert, assertive). Additionally, you can provide examples of your brand voice for greater customization.

Technical

What AI models does Breakout use? +

For GEO analysis, we query ChatGPT (GPT-4), Claude (Anthropic), Perplexity, Gemini (Google), and Grok (xAI). For content generation, we use state-of-the-art models selected based on content type to optimize quality and accuracy.

Is my data secure? +

Yes. We use encryption in transit (TLS) and at rest. We don't share your data with third parties. Documents you upload are processed and deleted after generating content. Your company information and analyses are stored securely and only you have access.

Is there an API available? +

Currently Breakout is available through the web interface. An API for integration with your own systems is on the roadmap. If you have specific integration needs, contact us.
