The problem it solves

Figuring out what your audience is actually searching for usually means hours of manual keyword research, guessing at phrases, and cross-checking search volume one term at a time. It's slow, and it's easy to miss the questions people are really asking.

Who it fits

A marketer, SEO specialist, or founder who wants to understand what their audience searches for.

How it works

  1. You describe your target customer profile
  2. AI generates relevant keywords and questions based on that profile
  3. Each keyword is enriched with search data from Ahrefs
  4. All the results are saved to a Google Sheet
What you get

Real keywords your customers are already searching

You get a list of real search keywords and questions your target customers use, enriched with search volume data, saved to a spreadsheet.

What you get

A Google Sheet full of audience keywords and questions, each with search volume and difficulty data.

What you need

An OpenAI API key, an Ahrefs-connected data source, and a Google Sheets account.

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.
