# Rankfender

> Rankfender is an SEO + AI search platform. It audits your site for Google and AI engines, finds the keywords you can win, writes and publishes the articles, and shows whether ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, DeepSeek, Grok, Llama and Mistral recommend you.

Rankfender works on both the search layer and the AI answer layer. On the search side: a ~60-check SEO + GEO + AEO site audit, keyword opportunities measured with real search data, an AI content writer that publishes to WordPress, Competitor Intelligence and done-for-you link building (Business and Agencies). On the AI side: it asks ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, DeepSeek, Grok, Llama and Mistral your buyers' questions through their APIs and reports mention rate, position, sentiment, sources named and competitor share of voice. RAIVE is the name of that visibility engine; RAISA is the SEO agent that acts on your project data after you confirm.

This file follows the [llms.txt](https://llmstxt.org/) specification. For the full long-form reference (recommended for retrieval-augmented generation and ingestion), use [llms-full.txt](https://rankfender.com/llms-full.txt). For citation, attribution, and usage rules, see [ai-policy.txt](https://rankfender.com/ai-policy.txt).
