Dokeo vs AI tools
They write the draft.
Dokeo scores it before publish.
We gate our own blog. Scored 17 October 2026 with the same engine you get, glossary rules, balanced strictness.
Generating drafts, brainstorming ideas, answering questions, and discovering content. They produce the raw material.
The quality gate that scores every piece against 19 checks across SEO, AEO and GEO. Consistent, deterministic, no AI in the scoring loop.
The gate is deterministic: the same draft returns the same verdict every time, which is what makes it safe to block a CI pipeline on.
- SEO, AEO, and GEO checks run in a single pass, across all 17 supported content types.
- Every FAIL names the specific check that failed and why. No black-box review.
- 100 free scans a month, no credit card, same gate as production.
ChatGPT is for
Teams that need to generate first-draft copy quickly and don't yet have a quality bar.
ChatGPT writes it. Dokeo decides if it ships.
Where each one fits
ChatGPT is a writer. Dokeo is an editor. ChatGPT produces the draft; Dokeo scores the draft against SEO + AEO + GEO checks and tells you what to fix before you publish. The output of one is the input of the other.
| Feature | ChatGPT | Dokeo |
|---|---|---|
| Primary job | Generate text | Score existing text |
| Output | A draft | A verdict + line-level fixes |
| Runs in | OpenAI's chat | API, web app, CLI, MCP, public GitHub Action |
| Time per task | 10-30 seconds | under 200 ms for checks; seconds for AI rewrite |
Different scoring
ChatGPT can't give you the same verdict twice, so you can't block a build on it. It has no fixed rule for 'too many em-dashes' or 'no sources cited'. Dokeo runs the same 19 checks, tuned to the content type, on every piece, every time, with no variance.
| Feature | ChatGPT | Dokeo |
|---|---|---|
| Reproducible score | ✗ | ✓ (same input = same output) |
| SEO + AEO + GEO checks | ✗ | ✓ 19 checks, 3 engines |
| Inline issue highlights | ✗ | ✓ (the exact sentence that failed) |
| AI-tell detection | ✗ | ✓ (em-dashes, hedging, filler) |
Different integrations
ChatGPT lives in a chat window. Dokeo lives in your workflow: a pre-commit hook, CI through the REST API or the public GitHub Action, and the MCP server inside Claude and Cursor. Dokeo blocks bad content from publishing. ChatGPT can only warn you.
| Feature | ChatGPT | Dokeo |
|---|---|---|
| GitHub PR check | ✗ | ✓ (public GitHub Action) |
| MCP server (Claude/Cursor) | ✗ | ✓ |
| Pre-commit hook | ✗ | ✓ |
| Batch scan a domain | ✗ | ✓ |
FAQ
Does Dokeo use AI in its scoring?
No. The 19 checks are regex, readability formulas, structural parsers, and TF-IDF. Same input, same verdict today, tomorrow, and in a year. The optional AI rewrite (Growth+ plans) uses configured writing models.
Can I use Dokeo to score AI-written content?
That's the most common use case. Paste AI output from any model into Dokeo, get a score, fix the flagged lines, ship. One credit per scan.
Does Dokeo replace AI writing tools?
No. They're complementary. AI tools help you generate the first 80%. Dokeo makes sure the last 20% is good enough to publish. The LLM writes; Dokeo decides whether it ships.
Can I run Dokeo from inside Claude?
Yes. Dokeo ships an MCP server. From Claude Desktop or Cursor, you can call the gate without leaving the chat. Claude writes, Dokeo scores, all in one session.
Is Dokeo biased against AI-written content?
No. Dokeo scores the draft. It checks for AI-tells (em-dashes, hedging, filler) regardless of which model produced them, including humans who write like AI.
Does Dokeo track AI citations?
Citation tracking is a separate feature (Citation watch). The core scoring product tells you whether your content is structured for citation. Citation watch tells you when and where it actually gets cited.
Can Dokeo guarantee rankings or citations?
No tool can guarantee that. Dokeo enforces the structural and quality signals that search engines and AI answer engines look for. The rest depends on the query, your authority, and how often the model crawls.
