How it works

A little care for your site.

How Rankrook collects evidence, proposes a change, opens a draft pull request and measures the result.

A thoughtful start
Get to know your site.
Add your site's address and prove that it is yours with one DNS record or one file. Connect Google Search Console, then choose how Rankrook works: reports, draft pull requests or autopilot. Draft pull requests need a repository you select through the GitHub App.
Your audience, product facts and publishing preferences give Rankrook the context to make useful suggestions. Setup ends with your first run.
Explore the connection paths
Look before you leap
Find the work worth doing.
Rankrook looks at your pages and search data for a reason to make a change. Each recommendation comes with its source, the date it was collected and any gaps in the evidence.
Sometimes, the useful answer is “no change justified.” Incomplete data stays incomplete; it does not become an invented problem.
You have the final word
A draft you can inspect.
A focused pull request shows the actual files and the reason behind the change. Your usual review and CI remain part of publishing.
New customer sites will start in report mode. Automatic merging requires a separate policy that you choose.
Give it a little time
See what happened next.
After a merge, Rankrook checks the live page and indexing signals. A 28-day before-and-after traffic window and a monthly baseline add context.
Results can be inconclusive. A change in traffic does not prove that an edit caused it, and Rankrook does not promise rankings, traffic or AI citations.

Inside Rankrook

One page for each question.

Once your site is set up, the app shows what Rankrook noticed, decided and did, with the evidence behind it.

Home: Whether Rankrook is working, and whether it needs you.
Market: The researched keyword map, topics and competitors, and the goals you steer.
Results: Clicks, impressions and position compared by period, and how each shipped change turned out.
Changes: What is up next, what is waiting for your review and what shipped.
Activity: Every run and change event in one timeline, with its receipt.
Settings: How Rankrook may work on the site: its schedule, autonomy, connections and guidance.

Three ways to connect, the permissions each asks for and how to take access back.
