The Problem
SEO research for directories is broken
Sound familiar? These are the frustrations we heard from hundreds of directory builders.
$129+/month for tools you barely use
Ahrefs and Semrush are built for agencies running 50 campaigns. You just need to know if "best coffee shops in Austin" is worth targeting.
Hours lost to analysis paralysis
You've been "researching" for weeks. Spreadsheets everywhere. Still no clear answer on whether to build or move on.
Data without direction
Even when you get keyword data, you're left wondering: "Okay, but what do I actually do with this? Can I rank? Should I even try?"
Keyword difficulty you can't trust
Tool A says 45, Tool B says 17. Neither explains if YOU can rank. The metrics are inconsistent and confusing.
Programmatic SEO at scale is a nightmare
Finding thousands of keyword variations for location + service pages is tedious. Validating them all? Impossible without spending hundreds.
Competitor research takes forever
Manually analyzing 10 competitor sites, figuring out their keywords, understanding their strategy... who has time for that?
