I built an AI writing tool so I could stop paying for 3 different SEO apps as a solo freelancer — now looking for early users
Hey IH, I'm Imam, solo dev from Indonesia building Codilibs.
I kept seeing content writers and SEO freelancers (myself included, in past freelance work) juggling separate tools for keyword research, article drafts, meta descriptions, and competitor analysis — each with its own subscription. It adds up fast when you're not on an agency budget.
So I built Pulseo: one tool that handles article generation, keyword analysis, meta tags, FAQ generation, internal linking suggestions, and competitor analysis in a single dashboard. Free tier available, no credit card needed to try it.
It's genuinely early — built and shipped solo, so there will be rough edges. I'd rather hear "this feature is confusing" or "this doesn't solve my actual problem" now than after I've built more on top of the wrong assumptions.

If you're a content writer or SEO freelancer and have 5 minutes to try it and tell me what's missing, I'd genuinely appreciate it. Happy to answer anything about how it works too.
What I'd pay attention to is whether users see Pulseo as "one place for SEO tools" or "the fastest way to publish content."
Those sound similar, but they lead to very different positioning. People rarely want fewer tools for their own sake—they want less friction between an idea and a published article.
This is a really sharp distinction, thanks for pointing it out. I think right now Pulseo's positioning leans more toward "one place for SEO tools" which, now that you say it, is describing the feature set rather than the actual outcome people care about. "Fastest way to publish content" reframes it around the friction itself, which feels closer to why I built it in the first place.
Curious, when you say "less friction between an idea and a published article," what does that friction usually look like for you? Is it more the research/planning side, or the actual writing and optimizing part?
That's a good question.
I don't think I'd start by separating research from writing.
Reading your reply made me realize there's an assumption underneath that friction which changes how I'd answer the question entirely. It's subtle, but it affects where the product should create value first.
It needs a bit more room than I can do justice to in a thread.
If you're open to it, what's the best email to reach you on?
Appreciate you taking the time to think this through. Happy to continue over email mompys dot channel at gmail dot com . Looking forward to hearing the fuller version of this..
Thanks! I’ve just sent it over.
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts whenever you have a chance.
