Core offering

Search Atlas sells an AI-powered marketing automation SaaS platform that autonomously runs SEO, content generation, paid advertising, local SEO, and digital PR across multiple websites and channels. Its anchor product, OTTO SEO, is an autonomous AI agent that deploys thousands of technical and on-page SEO fixes directly to live sites — without developer involvement — while Atlas Agent provides a conversational AI interface that orchestrates cross-channel campaigns from natural-language prompts. The platform is packaged as a tiered subscription for SEO agencies, in-house marketing teams, consultants, and multi-location brands.

Product overview

Search Atlas is an agentic AI marketing platform that operates as a unified system consolidating SEO, content, local SEO, paid advertising, and AI search visibility into one integrated environment. The core platform is anchored by OTTO SEO, described as the world's first autonomous AI SEO agent, which executes technical fixes, on-page improvements, content creation, link building, press releases, and local SEO automatically. Atlas Agent serves as the conversational AI interface that turns natural-language prompts into cross-channel execution. The product portfolio includes specialized modules for content generation (Content Genius with SCHOLAR scoring), local presence management (GBP Galactic, Local Citations, Local Heatmap Tracker), advertising automation (Smart Ads/OTTO PPC, Meta Ad Studio), AI search tracking (LLM Visibility, QUEST), authority building (WILDFIRE backlink exchange, Press Release Software), technical SEO (Site Auditor, Site Explorer), and agency tools (White Label SEO Software, Portfolio Summary, Report Builder). Website Studio enables AI-powered page generation. The platform connects with major CMS platforms (WordPress, Shopify, HubSpot, Webflow, Contentful, Duda), code pipelines (GitHub, Vercel, Netlify), and workplace tools (Slack, Teams, ClickUp). The acquisition of Signal Genesys expanded press release distribution capabilities. Plans range from $99/month (Starter) to $999/month (Agency) with a 7-day free trial.
