The problem it solves

Researching what's already ranking for your target keywords, then turning that into meta tags and a content brief, takes hours per keyword. Doing this consistently across dozens of keywords for multiple clients quickly becomes unmanageable.

Who it fits

SEO professionals, content marketers, or agencies managing content for multiple clients.

How it works

  1. Starts by reading a list of target keywords and client details from a spreadsheet
  2. It searches for and scrapes the top-ranking competitor pages for each keyword
  3. It analyzes those pages' heading structures and content
  4. AI generates optimized meta tags, headings, and a content brief tailored to the client's tone and business
  5. The results are written back into the spreadsheet for review
What you get

Content briefs ready for your writer to review

You get keyword-by-keyword competitor analysis turned into meta tags, headings, and a content brief, written back into your spreadsheet for your team.

What you get

SEO meta tags, headings, and a content brief for each target keyword, saved to a spreadsheet.

What you need

A Google Sheets account, an Anthropic account, an Apify account, and a Firecrawl 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.
