RankAI

Hey HN, we are building Rankai (https://www.rankai.ai), an AI agent that pushes SEO blogs and code fixes automatically to your site. My teammate previously scaled a product to 4M users via organic traffic and SEO. And we understood the importance of driving SEO traffic for small businesses. But after we talked to a lot of small businesses and startups, we realized that majority are not doing SEO at all. For them, learning and doing SEO weekly is too time-consuming, and no way they'd hire an agency for $4k+. So we tried to automate each step of SEO process in an agentic way using…

RankAI launched on April 21, 2026 with 581 votes, #15 of 21,248 launches that month and more than 99% of that year's launches.

In plain words

RankAI is an autonomous SEO and search agent that handles website optimization end-to-end. It identifies high-intent search queries from Google and AI search engines like ChatGPT, then creates and publishes optimized pages to drive traffic. The tool continuously tracks performance and iteratively refines pages to improve visitor acquisition. It's designed for businesses seeking to increase organic search visibility without manual SEO work.

From the sources

RankAI is the first SEO/GEO agent that truly works. It handles everything autonomously to drive you millions of visitors from Google & AI Search like ChatGPT. Drop in your website, and RankAI handles the rest: it finds high-intent queries your customers search on Google and ChatGPT, publishes optimized pages, tracks performance, and recreate pages iteratively until they get you visitors.

RankAI grows your website on autopilot — it reads your live site, ships on-brand pages that rank and convert, and keeps improving them. No agency, no dev.

We run the engine that discovers opportunities, ships pages, measures results, and learns what works — continuous website growth without the guesswork. Website growth is won through iteration. RankAI researches, publishes, measures, and rewrites until traffic and visibility compound. RankAI shifted LiveTinted from branded queries to high-intent skincare education — ranking on Google for ingredient and product-comparison searches that drive discovery. RankAI built content for romance readers asking AI and search engines where to find spicy stories — putting Shortbread in the answer when buyers discover alternatives to books and webcomics. BuyUnityNow was losing commercial buyers — blog posts…from rankai.ai

  • With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
