Questions you probably have
Everything you need to know about getting started with RankOS
How is this different from Ahrefs or SEMrush?
Ahrefs and SEMrush are excellent data tools. But they stop at data. You still have to export that data, analyze it yourself (or paste it into ChatGPT), build a strategy manually, and create content somewhere else. RankOS takes data from the same caliber of sources — DataForSEO and Google Search Console — and adds AI agents that do the analysis, strategy, and content work for you. One platform, end to end.
How is this different from using ChatGPT for SEO?
ChatGPT doesn’t know your site. Every session starts from zero — no memory of your keywords, your competitors, your content history, or your business context. RankOS maintains persistent context about your site and builds compounding knowledge over time. It also uses real SEO data, not training data from 2024.
What does the $5 free credit actually cover?
Enough to complete the full setup journey: connect your site, pull initial SEO data, run competitor discovery, identify keyword gaps, generate a content strategy, and start building your content calendar. The credit is consumption-based, not time-limited. Use it over a day or a month. When it’s depleted, you keep read-only access to everything.
Do I need SEO experience to use RankOS?
No. The AI interprets all data in plain language. You’ll see explanations like "Your site is ranking #14 for ‘best project management tools’ — this keyword gets 2,400 searches/month and you’re close to page one. Here’s a content strategy to push it higher." No jargon required.
How autonomous is the AI? Will it do things without my approval?
You control this per workflow. By default, the AI suggests and waits for your approval. You can dial it up to fully autonomous or keep it fully manual. Human-in-the-loop review is always available. It’s never removed, even at the highest autonomy level. The system never takes irreversible actions without the consent level you configured.
Can I choose which AI model to use?
Yes. Pro plans and above let you select between Anthropic Claude and OpenAI for all AI features, including analysis and content generation. Use whichever model you prefer.
What happens to my data if I cancel?
Your data (keywords, competitors, strategies, content, calendar) is retained until you explicitly delete your account. If you downgrade to Free, you keep read-only access. If you upgrade later, everything picks up where you left off.
Is this designed for agencies managing multiple clients?
Yes. The Pro Multi plan ($169/mo for 3 sites) and Enterprise plan (unlimited sites) are built for agencies and freelancers. Each site gets its own dashboard, team permissions, and autonomy settings. Team members can be restricted to specific client sites.
Where does the SEO data come from?
Two primary sources. Google Search Console provides verified ownership data — clicks, impressions, CTR, and average position from Google directly. DataForSEO provides keyword rankings, backlink profiles, SERP analysis, domain metrics, and competitor data. All real data, not scraped or estimated.
