RankSpot 2.0: what’s changed since Product of the Day

Hi there 👋

Dan, founder of RankSpot here!

About 6 months ago RankSpot won #1 Product of the Day here. Since then a lot has changed. Honestly, so much that it’s almost a different product. So before we launch again, I wanted to walk you through what’s new and why 👇

From “automate my SEO” to “give my agent SEO superpowers”

When we launched last time, RankSpot was a tool that automated your SEO. You plugged it in, and it found keywords and published articles every day.

It worked. But the more I talked to users, the more I realized something: the human touch still matters. You know your business, your audience and your priorities better than any autopilot.

So we changed the approach. RankSpot is now a pay-as-you-go SEO data, memory and execution layer for your AI agent. You connect it to Claude or ChatGPT (or Cursor, Codex, n8n...) and direct it however you want.

Everything works through MCP 🤖

That’s the biggest change. You add mcp.rankspot.ai to your agent, sign in, and that’s it. No dashboards to learn and no API keys for most setups.

Then you just ask:

• Generate an article

• Check keywords

• Find and track competitors

• Check what keywords your competitors rank for

• Check your AI visibility in ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini

• Write an outreach email

• Send the email

• and so on, so on

There’s also a public API if you want to build on top of it.

Data is not enough, you need execution

Most SEO tools out there give you data. Charts, reports, keyword lists... and then you’re on your own.

RankSpot doesn’t stop at data. It has the full context of your business (brand voice, competitors, past results) and it actually does the work. It writes the article, publishes it to your CMS, requests indexing and sends the outreach emails.

Outreach is huge 🔥

This one I’m most excited about. RankSpot finds the pages that get cited most for your topics, finds the editor’s contact, drafts a pitch for a link exchange or link placement and sends it from your mailbox after you approve.

In the last few weeks we got ~20 backlinks just from this feature. Backlinks have always been the most painful part of SEO, and now it’s a couple of messages to your agent.

Better articles + AI editor

Article generation got a big upgrade. Before writing, we analyze the top Google results, and now we score every draft against them.

And we added an AI editor right inside the article, so you can tweak tone, sections or details to your preferences before anything goes live.

Pay-as-you-go, no subscription

No more monthly plans. You pay only for what you use: ~$3 per article, fractions of a cent per AI visibility check, and reading data is free. Credits roll over.

How I see it working

You sit down for 1 hour per week. You plan topics and pick the publishers you want to reach out to. After that RankSpot does the work on its own and gives you a summary when it’s finished.

Your agent is the brain. RankSpot is the hands + the SEO data 😉

We’re launching RankSpot 2.0 on Product Hunt soon, and I’d love to hear what you think before then.

WDYT? Would you rather have SEO fully on autopilot, or keep control and direct the agent yourself?
