Floyi alternative: when you need the topical map, not the whole platform
We make Topical Map AI, so read this as one vendor's comparison. Every Floyi figure below comes from Floyi's pricing page, read on 4 November 2026. Prices change, so check theirs before you buy.
Floyi is a content strategy platform. Topical maps are one of about ten things it does: it also clusters keywords, writes briefs and drafts, runs audits, and publishes to your site. Topical Map AI is built around one of those things. You give it a topic or a site, and an SEO map lists hundreds of keywords grouped into pillars and clusters. Search volume and difficulty from DataForSEO are shown wherever Google reports a number, and marked where it does not. Then you export it and plan content from it.
Which one fits depends on whether you want the rest of the platform.

Where Floyi is the better choice
If you want the map, drafts and publishing all inside one content platform, Floyi is built for that. If you work in a team, Floyi's Pro plan includes three seats. If you want a free plan to try the clustering on, Floyi has one and we do not.
Where Topical Map AI is the better choice
If the map is the deliverable. Agencies handing a client a topical map, freelancers scoping a content plan, and site owners who write their own articles pay for the map and nothing else. Floyi's cheapest full map costs $99 a month and comes with a platform you may not use. Ours costs $39 once, or $56 a month if you need up to 25 of them.
If you want the keyword data visible on the map. Every keyword in an SEO map carries DataForSEO search volume and difficulty where Google reports it, and is marked plainly where it does not, so a blank means "no reported volume" rather than a guess.
If you want the map in a spreadsheet. CSV or Excel export puts the whole map, clusters and all, into Sheets or Excel in one step.
The short version
Ask whether you will use Floyi's drafts and publishing. If yes, Floyi's $99 covers a lot. If no, you are paying $99 a month for a map that costs $39 here.
