Description
RankIQ is an SEO toolset built specifically for bloggers, created by Brandon Gaille, who also hosts The Blogging Millionaire podcast. Its core product is a hand-picked keyword library, organized by blog niche, of search terms with lower competition and higher traffic potential than a typical keyword tool would surface, along with a top-30 SERP analysis to guide the words used in a post title.

Alongside the keyword library, RankIQ's Content Optimizer grades a blog post against the sites already ranking for a target keyword and tells the writer what to add to compete for page one, and it can be used both on new posts and to update older, underperforming ones. RankIQ is now sold and used together with a related platform called Aided, which layers AI content generation on top of RankIQ's research and grading: Aided drafts a full blog post along with matching social posts for Instagram, Pinterest, Facebook, LinkedIn, X, TikTok, and YouTube, plus an email promo for the same piece of content, aimed at answer-engine and AI-overview visibility as well as traditional Google rankings. Existing RankIQ subscribers keep access to RankIQ through its own sign-in and are offered the combined RankIQ-plus-Aided plan alongside their existing subscription.
As listed on the site, RankIQ alone is priced at $99, and the current combined offer bundles RankIQ with Aided's Unlimited plan, which also includes access to Claude, Gemini, and ChatGPT, at a discounted introductory rate. Pricing on offers like this can change, so the current rate should be checked on the site before buying. RankIQ is aimed at bloggers and content sites, particularly those on ad networks like Mediavine, who want a lower-competition keyword strategy and a grading tool for existing content rather than a general-purpose AI writer bought on its own. The site still carries its original positioning as a standalone SEO toolset, so buyers evaluating it today are effectively choosing between RankIQ's research and grading tools alone or the wider Aided bundle built on top of them.
