Founding tester program
RankAscend analyzes your site, finds the keyword gaps, writes structured blog articles in your voice, and turns the same keywords into Instagram and TikTok carousels. We are looking for niche site operators to run the full pipeline and help us make it better.

What you'll be testing
Set your publish time once. RankAscend commits the file and triggers your deploy, on schedule, without you touching it again.
Blog posts, comparison pages, use-case pages, and listicles are assigned automatically, each with the right schema type applied.
JSON-LD is checked against the spec before publish. A validation failure blocks the commit, so malformed structured data never reaches production.
Opportunity-scored keyword gaps arrive within the hour of connecting your site, and top up every month so volume never stalls.
Two to three contextual links per article, chosen from your site. No manual linking pass required.
The founder deal
We need operators who will actually run the pipeline on a real site, not just poke at a demo. In exchange for that, founding testers get a plan that never expires.

Full access, no credit card, for as long as the beta runs.
Lifetime founder plan
Connect a real site, publish articles, and complete one feedback survey or call to keep a founder plan for life.
First 10 testers only
We are onboarding a small cohort so we can actually act on what people tell us.
Process
Tell us about your site and publishing cadence. We review applications and onboard in small batches.
Point RankAscend at your GitHub repo, WordPress, Hygraph, or Shopify. The crawl and first keyword queue are ready within the hour.
Review it in the inbox, or trust it and flip on auto-approve once you have seen the quality for yourself.
Publish articles and share your feedback. You keep a founder plan for good.
Reliability
Crawl-aware gap analysis means RankAscend never writes about a topic your site already covers.
Schema is validated before every commit, and a failed deploy is automatically reverted.
Not a walled garden. Every publish is a commit with full git history, or a normal entry in your CMS.
Astro, Gatsby, Hugo, Next.js, WordPress, Hygraph, or Shopify. No migration, no plugin installs.
Beta FAQ
Yes. Full access during the beta, no credit card required. Testers who publish real content and give feedback keep a founder plan for life afterward.
You need a GitHub repo, WordPress site, Hygraph project, or Shopify store to connect. If you already publish content to one of those, setup takes about 5 minutes.
No. GitHub only stores and versions your content files. Your site can be hosted anywhere, Netlify, Vercel, Cloudflare Pages, or your own server.
Ten. We are keeping the first cohort small so we can onboard properly and act on feedback quickly.
A short survey after your first publish works too. The founder plan is earned by publishing real content and telling us what worked, in whatever form is easiest for you.
Founding testers keep their founder plan. Everyone else moves to standard pricing when RankAscend opens up publicly.
