Writesonic, an AI SEO agent, which automates end-to-end SEO workflows by connecting real-time data from Ahrefs, Google Search Console, and other key marketing tools was launched on Thursday.

According to Indian American founder Samanyou Garg, traditional SEO teams end up spending six to eight hours every week comparing keyword data. They also end up having to pay agencies $5000-$10,000 per month for basic SEO work, and end up spending a lot of time switching between tools, waiting weeks for competitor research and strategy, and getting stuck in endless iterations.
Writesonic uses AI to change all this. It does keyword research to understand search volume, difficulty, and related terms using Ahrefs and Google Keyword Planner, and studies the current Google SERP (Search Engine Results Page) landscape to understand content types and ranking factors.
The innovative tool can also examine a site’s domain rating and organic keywords, and identify top competitors in the U.S. market for the keyword. Writesonic can do a lot like analyze relevant backlink profiles, perform technical SEO audit to spot improvement opportunities, and compile a comprehensive strategy based on all gathered data. All these within a matter of minutes, working with real-time data from actual marketing tools used by enterprises, making it easy to integrate with existing systems of customers.
