Mastheads vs BlogPilot

A BlogPilot alternative built to publish.

Mastheads is built to run the publishing operation: finding what is worth covering, researching it, writing from real sources, checking the claims and publishing 40 to 300 articles a month in your publication's voice.

BlogPilot approaches the same job as a connect-and-publish autopilot - keyword plan in, scheduled posts out - with no editorial layer named on its pages. Mastheads starts with the newsroom.

A note from the founder

BlogPilot publishes the posts and tells you nothing about who checked them. On my own sites that was never good enough, and it is why there is a name on every article here.

Where the approach differs

Mastheads starts with the publishing operation.

By default, a Mastheads article begins with sources, goes through claim-level checks and finishes with the sources attached. If something cannot be verified, the article says so. If nobody reviews an AI-published piece, Mastheads discloses that too.

BlogPilot's pages describe the workflow - connect your CMS, approve a content plan, review-then-publish or run the autopilot hands-off - but not what happens to a claim once it's written: no fact-check, no citations, no AI disclosure and no named byline are mentioned on any of its pages, and the vendor itself is unnamed, with an unfilled '[governing jurisdiction]' placeholder still sitting in its own terms. Mastheads is built around the publishing operation itself, with a name behind every article.

The Mastheads standard

Built like a newsroom, not just a content tool.

Sourced by default

By default, every article begins with real sources. Those sources are checked for the story, date and substance before writing begins. If a topic cannot be properly sourced, it is dropped rather than padded.

With Research on, no source means no article.

A real editor of record

Nothing publishes anonymously. Each article carries a real named byline and a human editor of record, accountable for editorial standards, source policy, and disputes - the person whose name is on the door.

Review by default; auto-publish you can defend

Every claim is checked against its sources and the result is written on the article, and nothing ships silently. Auto-publish is opt-in and runs the very same checks - trustworthy when it's unattended, not merely unchecked.

Compliance built in, not bolted on

EU AI Act Article 50 disclosure on anything published unattended, self-serve GDPR export and account deletion with access and correction on request, a registered DMCA agent, and cover images we draw rather than take off the open web, so there is no stock-image rights question to clear - standard on every plan.

A newsroom in any language

Any language, for any country - written in its own grammar and idiom rather than translated, held to the same quality bar, all under one subscription. Where we curate a local newsroom register, it takes that too.

Your content, never locked in

A pull API, and one-click export to WordPress WXR, Ghost, and Markdown with every image. You own the articles outright - no royalty, no attribution back to us.

Under the hood: it discovers stories in your niche, writes them in your voice, fact-checks against sources, illustrates, and publishes to your CMS, on your schedule.

How it works
Questions

Common questions

Is Mastheads a good BlogPilot alternative?+
Yes, if you want the same connect-and-auto-publish setup with an editorial layer behind it. BlogPilot's plans run about 15 to 150 articles a month depending on plan, with no fact-check, citation or byline layer named on its pages. Mastheads writes 40 to 300 articles a month in any language, each one written from listed sources, checked against them and published under a named byline.
What is the difference between Mastheads and BlogPilot?+
Where the trust sits. BlogPilot connects your CMS, drafts posts from a keyword plan and auto-publishes on a schedule, and its pages don't say what happens between the draft and the post - no fact-check, no citations, no AI disclosure, no named byline. Mastheads starts from the newsroom: finding what is worth covering, reading real sources, writing from them, checking the claims and publishing on the times you set.
Who makes BlogPilot?+
The site names no company or founder, and its own terms carry an unfilled '[governing jurisdiction]' placeholder. Mastheads names its founder on its own site and every publication has a named editor of record, so there is always someone accountable.
Does BlogPilot fact-check its posts?+
Not stated on its pricing, features, terms or privacy pages. It does offer an optional review-then-publish mode alongside full autopilot. Mastheads writes from real sources by default, checks every claim against them and shows the result on the finished article, including anything it could not settle.
Can Mastheads automatically publish articles?+
Yes, if you switch it on. Review before publishing is the default: you press Publish, and that click is the review. Auto-publish is opt-in per domain, and where it runs, a gate holds back any article that misses its sources floor or fails the editor-in-chief, and says why.
Does Mastheads publish directly to WordPress and other CMS platforms?+
Yes: WordPress.org, WordPress.com, Ghost, Webflow, Shopify, HubSpot and GoHighLevel. BlogPilot publishes to WordPress, Webflow, Ghost and Shopify. Or run Mastheads draft-only and take each article as Markdown or HTML.
Can Mastheads write content in multiple languages?+
Yes. Any language, for any country, written in its own grammar and idiom rather than translated. Where we curate a native newsroom register, the article takes that too. BlogPilot's pages don't state which languages it writes.
How does Mastheads handle AI disclosure?+
An article published with nobody reviewing it carries an AI disclosure, and every image Mastheads draws carries a visible AI credit. An article you press Publish on carries no AI text label: your review is the editorial act. BlogPilot's pages don't address AI disclosure.
