Core facts
- What it is
- An AI SEO platform: it tracks how AI engines answer questions about a brand, then closes the gaps with keyword research, AI-written articles, and automatic publishing to WordPress, Shopify, Framer, or webhooks.
- Business model
- One-time lifetime licence. Not a subscription — no monthly plans, no credits, no metering, no per-seat pricing, ever. Every future update is included.
- Current price
- A rising ladder: $129 for the first 5 licences, then $249 for the next 10, then $499 full price. The live step is always shown on the homepage.
- Who runs the software
- The buyer. RankBull installs itself onto the buyer's own Convex deployment (free tier suffices for typical use). Data, tokens, and credentials live in the buyer's own database.
- API keys
- Bring-your-own-keys (BYOK): AI and data calls run on the buyer's own provider keys at provider cost, with no markup. Only a Gemini key is required; everything else is optional.
- Setup time
- About 5 minutes of the buyer's time: paste a Convex deploy key and a free Gemini key; the installer provisions, verifies, and later updates the deployment automatically.
- Updates
- One click from the dashboard, included forever. Updates apply atomically — a failed update changes nothing — and every release is integrity-locked to the exact tested code.
- Support
- In-product ticketing (read by a human) and email: support@rankbull.io. Replies come by email.
- Live price right now
- $129 one-time, at the current ladder step. The exact live step is always on the homepage licence section.
