Why Cohere Instead of OpenAI

We use Cohere for this project because it offers a free tier that meets our needs for generating high-quality content without the cost associated with other APIs, like OpenAI. Cohere's API provides powerful text generation capabilities, making it a suitable choice for creating SEO-optimized articles at no cost.

Engineered Prompt

The engineered prompt used in the tool is crafted to ensure that the generated content is SEO-optimized, unique, and engaging. It includes:

• Detailed Instructions: Specifies the style, format, and structure of the content.
• SEO Focus: Ensures that the content is optimized for search engines.
• Human-Like Writing: Emphasizes a conversational and engaging tone.

The prompt directs the AI to produce a structured article with headings and subheadings, ensuring comprehensive coverage of the topic.
