Write "X vs Y" articles using Manus skill
Use this skill to write the first draft of any "X vs Y" article. It researches the topic, reads the pages already ranking, and checks every price and feature.
What is this skill about
Add it to Manus, give it a topic, and it hands back an accurate first draft. Here's how:
Made for comparisons
Not a generic writer. It's built for "X vs Y" posts and "best alternatives" roundups, with a comparison table and a clear verdict.
Does the research with Wide Research
Manus uses Wide Research to read the web for you, cross-checking many sources at once. It pulls current prices and features from official sources and studies the pages already ranking, so the information it collects is up to date and accurate.
Uses your SEO data
Connect Ahrefs or Semrush and it works from real search volume and difficulty. It picks the right keyword and builds the article to rank.
Sounds like you
Tell Manus your writing style and tone of voice, and the style and voice you want for the article. Upload a few of your articles as references and Manus writes in that brand voice. The draft comes back sounding like you, ready to edit.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a finished article or a first draft?
A first draft. Manus does the research and writes a complete, accurate article. You add your voice and final edits before publishing.
Do I need an SEO tool like Ahrefs or Semrush?
No. Connect one and it uses real volume and difficulty data. Skip it and Manus uses public search data instead. Less precise, but still based on what's ranking.
How accurate is the information?
Manus uses Wide Research to gather and cross-check information from many sources, then checks prices and features against official sources and flags anything it couldn't confirm. The result is up to date and accurate, so you get a draft you can trust, not one you fact-check from scratch.
Can it write in my brand voice?
Yes. Tell Manus your writing style and tone of voice, and the style and voice you want for the article. You can also upload a few of your own articles as references, and Manus learns from them to write in that brand voice.
Will the article sound generic and AI-written?
It's built to avoid that. It matches the angle that's ranking, often first-person and hands-on, and uses your input and verified facts. It reads like an expert started it.
Can it handle more than two products?
Yes. It handles two-way comparisons and bigger roundups like "5 best X alternatives."
What do I get at the end?
A ready-to-publish Markdown draft, a short note on the SEO strategy, a list of facts to double-check, and a suggested title and meta description.
