Distribb alternative: LaunchRanked vs Distribb

Distribb (distribb.io) is an AI SEO agent founded by Borja Obeso and Florian Darroman. It researches buyer-intent keywords, writes and publishes long articles, runs a backlink exchange among its customers, and on its top plan repurposes articles into videos, Medium posts and Instagram carousels.

Our Autopilot is $49/mo and also publishes 30 articles a month. The differences are in how links are built, how fast a new domain publishes, and how much is checked before anything goes live.

Where we differ

No backlink exchange

Distribb's exchange sends you 3–5 links a month and places up to 5 links from your own articles to other customers, using an "ABC" pattern so no two sites trade directly. Google's spam policies list "excessive link exchanges" and "using automated programs or services to create links to your site" as link spam, whatever the pattern. We decided not to build one.

A pace a new domain can survive

We once published about 2,500 posts to Versely in a month and got indexing throttled. Autopilot publishes 1–3 articles a day depending on your domain's age, and you can move or publish any article yourself from the calendar.

Checked before it ships

Every Autopilot draft goes through a quality gate for duplicates, internal links and facts backed by sources, and is revised automatically when it fails. Then it waits for your approval unless you turn review off.

About half the price for 30 articles

Distribb Pro is $97/mo for 30 articles. Autopilot is $49/mo for 30 articles at the founding price, then $99/mo.

A team-run tier for less than Accelerator

Distribb Accelerator is $495/mo ($399/mo yearly). Autopilot Pro is $199/mo at the founding price for the first 50 customers: up to 90 articles, 8 short videos a month made with Versely, outreach our team sends, our directory submission and a Featured launch.

When to pick Distribb instead

You run a local business and want Google Business Profile posts and review replies handled.
You want videos, Medium posts and Instagram carousels made from your articles, and the Accelerator budget fits.
You want Medium syndication and Instagram carousels made for you as well as videos.
You want links from their customer network and you're comfortable with the policy risk.

Frequently asked questions

Is LaunchRanked Autopilot cheaper than Distribb?

At the time of writing (September 2026), Distribb Pro is $97/mo ($79/mo billed yearly) and Autopilot is $49/mo, both for 30 articles a month. Distribb's first month is currently offered at $9.

Is Distribb's backlink exchange against Google's rules?

We can't judge any specific site. Google's spam policies list excessive link exchanges and automated link programs as examples of link spam, and spreading the exchange across three sites doesn't change what it is. Links Google discounts simply stop counting.

Does Distribb have an MCP server?

Yes. Distribb documents a hosted MCP server with 18 tools (11 read, 7 write) and a REST API on its API docs page. LaunchRanked has one too: free SEO checks in ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor and Codex, and SEO Skills adds tools to research, brief, check and publish articles.

Can I use LaunchRanked Autopilot today?

Yes. Autopilot is live and anyone can start it. It's $49/mo at the founding price for the first 100 customers, locked while you stay subscribed, then $99/mo. Your first Autopilot subscription starts with a 7-day free trial: a card is required at checkout, and you're charged when the trial ends unless you cancel. During the trial, AI visibility is checked on Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews and Google AI Mode; ChatGPT and Claude are added when the paid plan starts.
