Daniil Poletaev is a developer turned founder and the person behind RankSpot, an AI SEO agent that takes a site from keyword research to a published article without manual work in between.
He built RankSpot after repeatedly watching capable businesses stay invisible on Google while their competitors dominated page one. Not because those competitors were better, but because they published more consistently. RankSpot is the tool he wanted to exist: keyword research, writing, on-brand visuals, formatting, and publishing to the CMS, handled end to end.
What he writes about
- SEO for founders and lean teams: how small teams compete with companies that have whole content departments.
- GEO and AI search visibility: getting cited in AI answers, not just ranked in blue links.
- Keyword research and competitor analysis: finding the topics worth publishing before writing anything.
- Content automation: where automation genuinely helps, and where it quietly hurts quality.
What he publishes comes out of building and operating RankSpot day to day, and from ongoing conversations with founders about where their growth actually stalls. When he isn't shipping features, he's usually deep in an SEO rabbit hole or drinking too much coffee.
