RankIQ
RankIQ is an SEO tool for bloggers that finds low-competition keywords in a niche and grades a draft post against the pages already ranking for it.
Updated October 2026
Overview: What is RankIQ?
RankIQ has since evolved into Aided, an AI content platform, and Aided's homepage offered its Unlimited plan at $49 a month, down from a $299 rate (checked October 2026).
RankIQ's core is a hand-picked keyword library for each major blog niche and a Content Optimizer that tells you which topics and terms to add to compete for page one. It also studies the top 30 results to suggest title words. Aided, from the same founder, Brandon Gaille, adds one-click apps for blog posts, social posts and email promos. Existing RankIQ members get access to both.
Fit: Ideal customer profile.
Bloggers and small publishers who earn from organic traffic, such as food, travel or lifestyle sites, and want keyword picks made for their niche. It isn't built for B2B teams that need technical audits, backlink data or a large keyword database across markets.

Aided can then turn the post into social posts for Instagram, Pinterest, Facebook, LinkedIn, X, TikTok and YouTube and an email promo.

Questions
Frequently asked.
Is RankIQ still available?
Yes, but it's now part of Aided. RankIQ's homepage says it has evolved into Aided, and existing RankIQ subscribers can still sign in and use both platforms.
How much does RankIQ cost?
New signups go through Aided, which advertised its Unlimited plan at $49 a month against a $299 rate (checked October 2026). Older RankIQ plans started at $49 a month for 16 keyword reports.
What are RankIQ's limits?
Its keyword data is built around blog niches, so B2B and software topics are thin. It has no technical SEO audit or backlink research, and the $49 price is presented as a limited offer, so confirm what you'll pay at renewal.
What are the alternatives to RankIQ?
Semrush and Serpstat are full SEO suites with keyword, backlink and competitor research, and Writesonic generates blog and marketing copy with AI.
