Where LaunchRanked fits
Disclosure: LaunchRanked is our product. Where we list it, we say so, and we place it under the use case it fits rather than at the top by default. Everything else here is from the vendors’ own sites or our research, and we say where they’re better.
LaunchRanked isn't an SEO suite. We don't have a keyword database, a backlink index or a rank tracker, and we're not a substitute for either tool here. Once you have impressions, Search Console's queries report is keyword research for your own site, free.
If what you actually want is content published and existing pages fixed, Autopilot ($49/mo, founding price, early access) publishes 30 articles a month and rewrites titles and snippets on pages ranking on page 1–2 of Search Console. Done-for-you (from $999/mo) runs the whole playbook for you.
