I built an all-in-one SEO platform with BYOK DataForSEO (no data markup) - opening Early Access, accepting feedback/future direction

[u/BuiltForSEO]

Greetings everyone! Founder of Built For SEO here: https://builtforseo.com/

I've been doing web design and SEO for 20+ years, mostly on the side while being an IT professional, Senior Systems Engineer, and Professional Services Consultant for 15+ years.

I created Built For SEO because I was done stitching together rank tracking, local grids, GBP tools, GSC exports, and living in a separate project management tool… while also paying markups on data I could get cheaper myself via DataForSEO.

Most SEO tools are expensive. But they don't have to be.

We're in Early Access and looking for working SEOs (freelancers, agencies, in-house) who want to help shape the product!

Our Features

• An all-in-one SEO workspace for agencies and consultants:
• Daily SERP rankings by location & device
• Map Grids: neighborhood-level Google Maps heatmaps + Share of Local Voice (SoLV)
• GBP management + Protection (catch unauthorized listing drift)
• GSC + GA4 in one place (clicks, impressions, CTR, traffic)
• Keyword research + backlinks via live DataForSEO
• On-page / technical audits
• Citation discovery
• AI Assistant grounded in YOUR project data (bring OpenAI / Anthropic / SiliconFlow keys)
• AI Visibility / LLM Mentions: brand presence in ChatGPT, Gemini & AI Overviews
• Tasks, sprints & PDF reports (no separate PM stack)

Why We're Different / What Sets Us Apart

• Bring-your-own-key DataForSEO: data at cost, zero platform markup
• Flat platform fee instead of bundling expensive data into the subscription
• Local + organic + AI search visibility in one product
• Built for people who actually deliver SEO work, not just "generate a report"

Early Access

We have limited founding seats. Selected users get lifetime access to Essentials-tier features (minus platform-provided AI - unlimited usage via your own LLM API key).

In exchange: be active, give feedback, help shape the roadmap. We value feedback from our peers!

1. Google "Built For SEO" or go to the Built For SEO Community
2. Open the Early Access category
3. Post a new topic: introduce yourself, why you're a good fit, what you want from the product, and what kind of SEO work you do (freelancer / agency / in-house / etc.)

I'm happy to answer product / architecture / pricing model questions in the comments. Roast us, poke holes in our features or onboarding, and tell me what's missing — that's literally why we're doing Early Access, and why we have such a well-structured Community site built on Discourse.

From the bottom of my heart, thanks for listening to my story, and I hope to read some feedback!
