The problem it solves

You want to build a research base from search results, related questions, and topics people also ask, but copying that into a spreadsheet and organizing it for later lookup takes forever. Doing it manually for every query doesn't scale.

Who it fits

SEO researchers and content teams building a searchable archive of search data.

How it works

  1. You submit a search query
  2. The system searches the web and pulls organic results, related searches, and people-also-ask questions
  3. Each result is saved to Airtable
  4. The results are converted into embeddings and stored in a vector database for search
What you get

Research archived and searchable for later

You turn a search query into an organized, searchable knowledge base of results ready for later use.

What you get

An organized Airtable record and a searchable knowledge base of your search results.

What you need

A Serper.dev account, an Airtable account, and a Zep vector database.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
