RankPrompt turns live search-results data into structured briefs for SEO content and prompts for AI models. It provides keyword volume, CPC, competition, difficulty, and trend metrics, detects informational, commercial, transactional, and navigational intent, and extracts People Also Ask questions from Google results. Its analysis of top pages shows topics competitors cover and how they organize content. Each output includes a brief for a human writer and a prompt for an LLM; users can also use the brief without AI. Workflows cover Blog Post and Service Page content, with controls for country, content type, goal, tone, and an optional writer persona. Language options include US/UK English, French, and Arabic, with 19 countries available. Prompts can be used with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or another preferred model.

Pro costs $19 a month for 50 prompts, AI-suggested H2 outlines, and 30-day prompt history; Agency costs $49 a month for 200 prompts and 90-day history.
