Kite does (or you do). It reads your site before you've met, proposes a plan, and every hour reads what's new in your Slack against your active marketing goals.

You do. You open an agent and fill in its fields, prompt Chat inside a project, or schedule a Grid to run daily, weekly, or monthly.

Type your prompt

The short version

Kite already knows your business and your marketing, so it finds the opportunity in your Slack, your analytics, and your AI visibility, does the work, publishes it, and tracks what it earned. Writing is part of that job, but only one part. Kite does the whole thing.

The expert marketer in your Slack

Kite

Even though Kite is AI, it's a marketing expert. It reads your site before you've met, learns your positioning, customers, competitors, and brand voice, and comes back with a first plan. From there it works in your Slack like a teammate, handling:

your website, landing pages, and the conversion experiments on them
content, SEO, and visibility in AI answers
outbound email and the lead lists behind it
social posts, launches, and announcements
brand, creative, and the imagery that goes with the page
the analysis that tells you how well it's all working.

Anyone on your team can @mention Kite in the channels you already use, and it answers with what it found and work that's ready to publish.

Choose Kite when you want your marketing handled by an expert that brings the plan, rather than just another place to write.

The content platform your marketers operate

Jasper

Jasper is a content platform for marketing teams. You open one of its 100+ agents, fill in its input fields, and it generates the blog post, cold email, ad set, or landing page copy in your brand voice.

Jasper IQ holds that voice along with your audiences, knowledge base, and style guide, so every agent writes on-brand. You work in Canvas for drafting, in Grid for running an agent across up to 1,000 rows at once, and in Chat. Business plans add the GEO Hub for measuring your brand in AI answers, a Research Agent, and translation into 27 languages.

Choose Jasper when your plan is already set and your constraint is producing a large volume of brand-governed content, especially across languages.

Brand voice and style rules enforced

Kite and Jasper, side by side

Jasper

What it is

Kite is your AI marketer in Slack. It researches your business, builds a growth strategy, and ships the work that brings you new customers.

Jasper is a content platform with 100+ marketing agents that generate on-brand content in a shared workspace.^¹

Who initiates work

Kite does (or you do). It reads your site before you've met, proposes a plan, and every hour reads what's new in your Slack against your active marketing goals. It also watches your site analytics, search data, and AI visibility for the next opportunity. You can hand it a task or a goal too.

You do. You open an agent and fill in its fields, prompt Chat inside a project, or schedule a Grid to run daily, weekly, or monthly. If you have the GEO Agent, it proposes a plan from a GEO Hub analysis you've already run and waits for your go-ahead.^²

Where work happens

Your Slack channels, where anyone on your team can @mention Kite.

Jasper's Canvas, Grid, and Chat, plus a Chrome or Edge extension, Google Docs and Word add-ins, and a Slack app on Business plans with API access.^³

Research and data built in

Apollo, Clay, Crustdata, PredictLeads, DataForSEO, Exa, Brandfetch, TrendTrack, ad intelligence, PageSpeed data, and public posts on X and Hacker News, plus Kite's own tracking across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Claude. That's 20+ data sources with no accounts to connect.

The Research Agent returns cited reports from public sources on Business plans. Keyword and ranking data come from a Semrush account you connect, which needs a Semrush Business plan and a purchased API unit pack. Search performance comes from a connected Google Search Console property.^⁴

Writing and creative

Pages, blog posts, comparison pages, email campaigns and sequences, social posts, ad copy, video scripts, and outreach in your voice, with generated imagery, background removal, and your design system and typography applied.

100+ agents across blog, email, social, ad, product, PR, and video formats, translation into 27 languages, and image generation and editing, with Brand Voice, Style Guide, Audiences, and Knowledge Base applied to each output.^⁵

Publishing

Kite publishes to the site it builds and hosts for you, or to your Webflow, Contentful, Storyblok, Sanity, or Payload site or your GitHub repository, and returns the live URL. It sends email from a Kite-managed address and posts through your connected social accounts.

Work stays in Canvas or Grid, exports as CSV, XLSX, or .docx, or moves into Asana, Monday.com, Jira, Wrike, Adobe Workfront, Google Drive, SharePoint, or Box. The GEO Agent can publish to a connected Webflow site after you approve (in beta).^⁶

Outbound email

Kite builds the list with Apollo, Crustdata, and PredictLeads, scores each person from one to five against your criteria, writes each message from its research on the account, sends from a Kite-managed address for your team, and reports delivery, failures, and replies.

The Cold Email and Email Sequence agents write ready-to-send messages and multi-step sequences. Jasper doesn't send them; you paste the copy into your email platform, sequence tool, or CRM and send manually.^⁷

Conversion experiments

On a Kite-hosted site, Kite's native experiment system picks the goal event, sets the traffic split between versions, watches the results, and asks before launching and again before merging the winner. On a site measured elsewhere, it reads the baseline and the result through your connected analytics.

The Ad Campaign, Email Campaign, Social Media Ad, and Landing Page agents write headline, body, and call-to-action variants for A/B tests. Ad deployment stays in your Meta, Google, or X account, and landing page sections paste into your CMS.^⁸

After it ships

Built-in analytics on every Kite-hosted site: visitors, sessions, bounce rate, referrers, form submissions, conversions, and funnels, with the change from the previous period. Kite also tracks email delivery and replies, search rankings, and AI citations across the four engines, then turns the result into the next task.

The GEO Hub reports brand presence, citation rate, and sentiment across AI answers, and the GEO Agent can run a daily or weekly briefing. A connected Google Search Console adds clicks, impressions, click-through rate, and position.^⁹

Memory and team context

One shared knowledge base for your whole team, holding your positioning, brand voice, customers, competitors, and the results of earlier work. Approved goals become initiatives on a board of proposed, active, completed, and stopped work.

Jasper IQ holds Brand Voice, Audiences, Knowledge Base, Style Guide, Visual Guidelines, and Product IQ for the workspace. Pro includes 2 voices, 3 audiences, and 5 knowledge assets; Business is unlimited. Saved agents stay private to the person who saved them.^¹⁰

Setup

Add Kite to Slack. It reads your site and comes back with a first plan.

Start a 7-day Pro trial or contact sales for Business, then build Jasper IQ. Jasper recommends one Brand Voice from up to 8 writing samples, two Audiences, and five Knowledge Base items before you start.^¹¹

Pricing

Per workspace, not per seat. Free plan with included usage, Growth at $100 a month with $100 in AI credits, Business custom.^¹²

Per seat. Pro is $59 a month billed yearly or $69 billed monthly, for one seat. Business is custom priced with a 12-month commitment, and GEO Hub and agent usage draw on credits on top of seats. Style Guide, Grid, GEO, Research, Translation, Studio, and the Slack app are Business-only.^¹³

Security

Built by Appsmith, a SOC 2 Type II certified company. Every site Kite builds runs in its own isolated sandbox with its own database, and credentials are encrypted at rest.^¹⁴

SOC 2 Type II certified and GDPR compliant, with data encrypted in transit and at rest in US data centers. Business plans add SSO, SCIM, role-based permissions, and an AI audit log.^¹⁵

Kite runs the conversion experiment. Jasper writes the variants.

Say traffic to your pricing page holds steady while demo requests fall. Kite reads the funnel in your site analytics, sees that visitors leave the pricing page without requesting a demo, and forms a hypothesis about what's stopping them.

On a site Kite hosts, it creates an experiment (new copy, new design, new CTA). It picks demo requests as the goal event, sets the traffic split between the two versions, and messages your team in Slack before the test goes live.

When the result is in, Kite reports which version won and asks before merging it. On a site you measure elsewhere, Kite reads the baseline and the result through your connected analytics.

How Jasper handles it

Jasper can write the ingredients for that test. Its Landing Page agent produces the sections, and its Headlines agent turns out title options in your voice. From there you paste the sections into your CMS and run the test in whatever tool measures your site.

That's the difference in one example. Jasper produces content for an experiment. Kite notices the drop-off on your pricing page and creates the whole experiment that fixes it.

Kite sends the campaign. Jasper hands you the emails.

Tell Kite "reach RevOps leaders at companies that just raised" and it starts before the first line of copy. It finds the companies through funding signals from Crustdata and PredictLeads, then the people and their professional email addresses through Apollo.

Kite scores each person from one to five against your criteria and carries the campaign to the end:

it researches each account and the reason to write now
it writes each message from that research, in your voice
it builds and publishes the landing page behind the campaign
it sends from a Kite-managed address for your team
it schedules the follow-ups
it reports delivery, replies, traffic, and conversions back in your Slack thread.

How Jasper handles it

Jasper's Cold Email agent turns your audience details and offer into a ready-to-send email, and its Email Sequence agent writes the multi-step series. Jasper doesn't send either one. Both hand you copy to paste into your email platform, sequence tool, or CRM.

Jasper's own page says the point is to free your sales team to focus on follow-up and booking meetings. With Kite, the list, the sending, and the follow-up are already done.

Kite finds the opportunity in your Slack. Jasper waits for the brief.

Most AIs wait for instructions. Kite finds what needs doing and does it.

Every hour Kite reads what's new in your Slack channels and holds it against your active marketing goals. When something is worth acting on, Kite messages your team to say what it noticed and what it's doing about it. You reply to go ahead or to skip it.

For example, say a sales rep posts that two prospects this week said ChatGPT recommended a competitor. Kite runs your buyer questions across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Claude and brings back:

the questions where you appear in one answer out of twelve
the competitor pages the engines cite instead
two comparison pages written in your voice and staged in a preview
the structured data, internal links, and llms.txt changes your site needs
a date to run the same twelve questions again after publication.

How Jasper handles it

Jasper has agents for several of those pieces. The GEO Hub measures your brand presence and citation rate once you run an analysis, and the GEO Agent explains the result, proposes a plan, and waits for your go-ahead before it starts.

Gap Finder identifies the questions competitors answer and you don't, and Comparison Brief structures the brief for a writer. Each is an agent you open. But Kite connects the sales rep's message, the measurement, the published pages, and the follow-up check without anyone writing a brief.

The research stack comes with Kite. Jasper connects to yours.

When you add Kite to Slack, the data a marketer would go and buy is already running:

Apollo for company and people research and professional email addresses
Clay for enriching a list across many providers at once
Crustdata and PredictLeads for funding, hiring, leadership, and technology signals
DataForSEO for keywords, search volume, rankings, and search competitors
Exa for deep public-web research with citations
ad intelligence for the ads a competitor is running now, with copy, creative, landing pages, and run dates
TrendTrack for ecommerce brands, shops, and advertising trends
Brandfetch for a company's logo, colors, and fonts.

None of that is a separate subscription or a connection step. For the products you already use, Kite has 2,300+ integrations, and it sends a one-click connect link in Slack when a task needs one.

How Jasper handles it

Jasper's Research Agent returns a cited report from public sources in 2 to 10 minutes on Business plans. For keyword and ranking data, you connect a Semrush account, which needs a Semrush Business plan and a purchased pack of API units.

Search performance comes from a Google Search Console property you connect. The prospect data, ad intelligence, and trend data come from wherever you buy them today.

20+ data sources built in. 2,300+ integrations. One subscription.

Kite's results start the next job. Jasper's report waits for you.

Every marketer knows the work isn't done when the page goes live. Kite keeps watching after it ships: visitors, conversions, form submissions, and funnels on your site, delivery and replies on your email, rankings in search, and citations across the four answer engines.

Kite reads the movement, explains what changed, and turns it into the next task. That might be sending more traffic to the page that won, changing the audience for the next email, rewriting the step where visitors leave your funnel, or publishing another page against the citation gap that's still open.

Every result lands in the shared knowledge base, so your whole team's next piece of work starts from what the last one taught.

How Jasper handles it

Jasper's GEO Hub scores your brand presence and citation rate, and the GEO Agent can run a weekly briefing on what's affecting them. A scheduled Grid reruns on its cadence, though its first version can't yet export the result to an integrated platform after the run.

In each case the report arrives, and the next decision is yours to make and brief.

Decide

When to choose Kite vs. Jasper

Choose Kite if:

You want marketing that gets handled, not content that gets handed back.
You want an expert finding opportunities in your Slack, your analytics, your search data, and your AI visibility, then getting them over the finish line.
You want conversion experiments configured, run, and measured, not just the variant copy.
You want outbound campaigns built, sent, and followed up, with replies reported in Slack.
You'd rather have Apollo, Clay, DataForSEO, and the rest included than subscribe to each one.
You want your whole team working with one AI marketer that remembers everything.

Choose Jasper if:

Your marketers already know what content they need and volume is the constraint.
You produce content in many languages and need glossary terms enforced across 27 of them.
You want a spreadsheet-style Grid that runs one agent across a thousand product rows at once.
Your team lives in Canvas, Google Docs, and Word rather than Slack.

Some teams run both: Jasper for high-volume, multilingual content production, Kite for the growth operations around it.

Questions

FAQ

Is Kite a replacement for Jasper?

Yes. Kite writes pages, blog posts, emails, social posts, ad copy, and outreach in your voice, and it creates the imagery that goes with them.

Kite also does the marketing around the content: the research, the lead lists, the website, the sending, the experiments, and the measurement afterward.

Can I use Kite and Jasper together?

Yes. Keep Jasper for a translation pipeline or a thousand-row Grid job, and add Kite to Slack for the rest. Your brand voice, audience definitions, and research from Jasper can be shared with Kite so it starts from what you already know.

Does Kite write in my brand voice?

Yes. Kite learns your voice from your site and your existing content during onboarding, along with your positioning, products, customers, and competitors, and keeps it in one shared knowledge base for your team. Share a brand guide or a style guide in Slack and Kite works from it.

Does Kite publish and send, or hand back drafts?

Kite publishes and sends. Pages go live on the site Kite builds and hosts or on your connected Webflow, Contentful, Storyblok, Sanity, or Payload site. Kite also returns the live URL.

Email goes out from a Kite-managed address, social posts publish through your connected accounts, and each one comes back to Slack with its result.

What goes live without me approving it?

Public work waits for you. Kite posts what it built, you reply in the thread, and then it publishes. Research, drafting, list building, and measurement run without asking.

When is Jasper the better choice?

Jasper is the better choice when the job is producing a large volume of governed content rather than marketing. Its Translation Agent covers 27 languages with your glossary enforced, its Grid runs an agent across up to 1,000 rows, and its Style Guide applies comma, terminology, and capitalization rules as it generates.

If that's the job, that's Jasper, and Kite would tell you so.

What does Kite cost for a team?

Kite is priced per workspace, not per seat, so your ninth marketer costs nothing extra. There's a free plan with included usage, Growth is $100 a month with $100 in AI credits, and Business is custom.

Jasper is priced per seat, from $59 a month billed yearly for one Pro seat, with a Business plan on a 12-month commitment and credits for GEO Hub and agent usage on top.

How do I start with Kite if my team already uses Jasper?

Add Kite to Slack and keep Jasper for now. Kite reads your site, your docs, and how you show up in AI answers today, then comes back with a first plan.

If Jasper holds your brand voice, a keyword list, or a competitor brief, share the file and Kite works from it.

Jasper makes the content. Kite does the whole marketing job.

Add Kite to your Slack and it reads your site today. The first plan comes back before anyone has written Kite a brief.
