I built a free keyword checker to see if you can rank

It turns live SERPs into actionable outlines — headings, per-section word counts, intent classification and content-gap bullets that writers can use immediately. The UI makes the core workflow obvious and fast, but it reads as a tactical add-on to established SEO suites: no backlink or authority signals, unclear export/API options, and potential scraping/captcha limits could blunt its value at scale.
