Hire your AI SEO editor

Briefs, drafts, edits, and on-page SEO — run by chat, not by project management.

Your AI SEO Editor runs content like a senior editor runs a magazine: picks topics off keyword research, writes clear briefs, drafts or edits the piece, ships it with the right schema and internal links, and measures what moved. You own the point of view; it owns the craft and the cadence.

What your AI SEO Editor does

01Keyword research weekly from GSC, Ahrefs, and competitor pages; maintain a scored topic queue
02Write SEO briefs that a human or another AI can execute against, with target length and entities
03Draft or edit posts in your voice, tight on claims and honest about limits
04Ship with correct schema (Article, FAQPage, HowTo, BreadcrumbList) and 6+ internal links
05Refresh old posts that are decaying in GSC but still carry intent and authority
06Maintain the content calendar against business priorities, not just volume
07Monitor crawl errors, broken internal links, and thin-content risks
08Report monthly on clicks, impressions, top movers, and revenue-attributable posts

Workflows on autopilot

Weekly topic triage
Every Monday: pulls GSC opportunities (impression > 100, CTR below benchmark), scores against business impact, and queues 3-5 candidates for the week.
Brief-to-draft pipeline
Topic locked → 400-word brief (intent, entities, competitors, target length, internal link plan) → draft → self-edit pass → ship. Typical turnaround: 48 hours from topic to publish.
Post-publish monitoring
72 hours after publish: verifies indexing, submits to GSC if delayed, checks for crawl issues. 14 days: first position report. 60 days: full performance review.
Content refresh cycle
Monthly scan of posts older than 90 days that lost 20%+ traffic. Rewrites intro, updates stats, rechecks internal links. Most refreshes recover traffic within 2 weeks.
Internal link graph maintenance
Weekly map of orphan pages, thin hubs, and missing cross-links. Adds contextual internal links to high-authority pages.
CTR repair sprints
Quarterly: finds pages with position 1-5 but below-benchmark CTR. Rewrites title and meta description. Measures lift over 3 weeks.

Without vs With a AI SEO Editor

Without
  • —You write a post when inspiration hits, once every six weeks
  • —Briefs live in your head and freelancers guess at intent
  • —Old posts decay and you never notice until traffic halves
  • —Schema, meta, and internal links are an afterthought
  • —A freelance editor charges $1,500 per post and ships one a month
With Tycoon
  • ✓Content ships on a predictable calendar tied to a real keyword queue
  • ✓Every piece has a 400-word brief anyone could execute against
  • ✓Monthly refresh cycle catches decay before it compounds
  • ✓On-page SEO is done before the draft goes live, every time
  • ✓AI editor ships 8 per month for a fraction of the cost and remembers your voice

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Clear answers about wallet credit, usage, subscriptions, and how Tycoon charges for work.

Does Google penalize AI-generated content?

Google has been explicit: it penalizes unhelpful content, not AI-assisted content. What gets hit: thin programmatic pages with no unique value, content farms rewriting what already exists, and sites that publish 500 pages a month with zero human judgment. What ranks: content with a real point of view, original data, internal expertise, and evidence of care. The AI SEO Editor runs the craft (research, structure, on-page) and leaves the judgment (is this angle right? do I actually believe this claim?) to you. That split has produced ranking content for dozens of SkillBoss and Tycoon pages, measured in GSC.

How does it avoid sounding generic?

Two defenses. First: voice training. You upload 10 of your best posts and the AI extracts sentence rhythm, specific phrases, your do-not-say list, and the kinds of proof points you like (customer quotes vs. stats vs. personal anecdotes). Second: original inputs. Every brief requires at least one source the competitor posts don't have — a product screenshot, a unique stat pulled from your data, a customer story, a contrarian angle. Generic writing comes from generic inputs; the brief enforces the opposite.

Can it do keyword research, or does it need me to pick topics?

It does both. Full keyword research mode: pulls GSC underperformers, Ahrefs gaps, competitor ranking pages, and People Also Ask clusters, scores against business relevance, and ships a ranked queue of 30-50 candidates per quarter. Founder-direction mode: you say 'write about X' and the AI runs the keyword map around X, picks the best variant, and executes. Most founders use both — direction-led for strategic content, keyword-led for everything else.

What about link building and off-page SEO?

The AI SEO Editor handles on-page in full and supports off-page as a separate, opt-in motion. On-page: briefs, drafts, schema, internal links, meta, refresh cycles. Off-page (opt-in): digital PR outreach drafts, HARO responses, broken-link outreach to specific sites, and guest post pitching. It does not buy links or run PBNs — that's a conscious choice. Most founders find on-page alone, executed with discipline, is enough for the first 18 months; link building becomes the last 20% improvement after the fundamentals are solid.

How fast does it ship?

Brief to publish typically runs 48 hours for a 1,500-word post. A 3,000-word pillar takes 4-5 days because the research layer is heavier and you usually want a review round before it goes live. Compare to a freelance editor (2-4 weeks) or an in-house content team (1-2 weeks). The AI SEO Editor doesn't work faster because it types faster — it works faster because it holds the brief, the voice model, the internal link graph, and the on-page checklist in a single context instead of handing them between people.
