Everything you need to know about Rankmio — credits, analyses, Keyword Hub, GEO module, competitors, tools, team, and privacy.
Rankmio is an SEO and AI search tool that shows you how to gain more visibility, traffic, and customers through Google and AI systems like chatbots.
Unlike traditional tools, Rankmio doesn't just analyze your website — it tells you exactly:
Rankmio combines classic SEO analysis (PageSpeed, crawler, visibility) with Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) — visibility in AI search engines like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity. All in one tool: website analysis, Keyword Hub, Content Optimizer, competitor comparison, Sitemap Hub, robots.txt tool, AI answer simulation, and team management.
No. Rankmio uses a pure pay-per-use model with credits. You buy credits and use them whenever you want. There is no subscription, no monthly fees, and no automatic billing. Credits never expire.
Rankmio works in all modern browsers: Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and Brave. We recommend using the latest version. The interface is responsive and also works on tablets and smartphones.
Rankmio is one of the few tools that combines classic SEO analysis and AI visibility (GEO) in a single platform. Instead of just delivering data, Rankmio provides actionable recommendations with priorities and impact ratings.
The beginner wizard helps you find the optimal starting point for your use case.

At Buy Credits you choose a package:
Payment via credit card or local payment methods (via Paddle). Credits are credited instantly. No waiting, no subscription.
Credit-based features cannot be used — you will see a notice with a link to purchase credits. Important: All existing data, analyses, and projects remain fully intact. Credits are never deducted that you don't have.
The website analysis combines three pillars that are fetched in parallel via curl_multi:
The analysis delivers results in ~30 seconds. You can choose between three user agents: Standard, Googlebot Desktop, or Googlebot Mobile. 1 Credits Learn more
In addition to the homepage, you can also check individual subpages with the same analysis depth (PageSpeed + crawler). URLs are selected via the URL Picker — from three sources:
Max. 5 pages per run, max. 20 per project. Optional AI audit per page. 1 Credits/URL
The Rankmio Score is a weighted overall score (0-100) based on 11 analysis pillars:
Performance (16%), SEO Checklist (16%), Keywords (12%), AI Visibility (10%), Core Web Vitals (8%), Sitemap (8%), Battle (8%), Content & AI (6%), Content Optimizer (6%), Answer Simulation (6%), and robots.txt (4%).
Color coding: Green from 70, Amber from 40, Red below 40, Gray = not analyzed. The more features you use, the more meaningful the score becomes. Learn more
The Site Audit is the central to-do list that automatically collects issues from all analysis areas. It includes:
Each to-do item can be checked off. Export as standard or branded PDF available.
An interactive Chart.js diagram shows the development of all metrics over time — visibility, PageSpeed scores, Core Web Vitals, and more. This way you can identify trends and the impact of your optimizations. CSV export for all historical data is free.
The Keyword Hub is the central workspace for all keyword features with 10 tabs:
Additional features: Seasonality (peak badges show when keywords are in high season), Traffic Value (estimated monthly value per keyword: CPC x clicks), and SERP analysis history for all AI tools.
Works with and without GSC connection. Without GSC, the Keyword Finder is available for manual research. Learn more
The SEO Opportunity Engine is a mathematical model that automatically calculates your best optimization opportunities from GSC data:
The model uses CTR target curves with statistical confidence (mean +/- 1.96 x std) and risk-adjusted scoring. The calculation is free (included in GSC sync). Learn more
The Action Plans tab aggregates all SEO issues from 4 sources (low hanging fruits, CTR gaps, cannibalization, ranking changes) and uses AI to generate a concrete action catalog per page with priorities.
Two stages:
Cost: 1 credits per started 15 pages. Example: 30 pages = 2 credits.
Keyword enrichment adds search volume (SV), keyword difficulty (KD), and cost per click (CPC) from current SERP data to your keywords.
Example: 18 new keywords = 3 credits. If 12 of them are cached, only 1 credit.
Rankmio compares keyword positions from the last 14 days with the previous 14 days. Rising badges (green) indicate improvements, Falling badges (red) indicate declines. The top movers are also displayed on the dashboard.
GEO optimizes your website for visibility in AI search engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. While classic SEO targets Google rankings, GEO ensures that AI systems cite and recommend your content as a source.
The GEO module includes: GEO audit, link graph analysis, AI Visibility Score, AI crawler access, content freshness, score trend, Schema.org generator, entity gap analysis, and AI citation tracking. 1 Credits
Rankmio checks visibility across four AI search engines:
AI Citation Tracking regularly monitors whether and how often your pages are cited by these providers. Learn more
The simulation checks whether AI systems would use your page as an answer source:
Saved simulations can be re-checked to measure progress. 1 Credits Learn more
The Open Industry Ranking shows which brands are most visible in AI answers for a specific topic:
The Industry Ranking is located above the Answer Simulation on the same page. 1 Credit Learn more
The Citability Check evaluates how well a page can be recognized and cited as a source by AI systems. The 12-point checklist includes:
Result: Score 0-100 with concrete improvement suggestions. Optional: AI optimization that generates optimized HTML code with before/after comparison. 1 Credit Learn more
The AI Answer Simulation shows you how AI search engines would answer questions about your domain. You enter a URL — optionally with a specific question and a city reference — and the system simulates the AI's response.
Ideal for regularly checking and systematically improving your AI visibility. Learn more
The Citability Score measures on a scale of 0 to 100 how likely it is that AI search engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google AI Overviews will cite and reference your content as a source.
The score is based on 12 checkpoints:
The higher the score, the better your page is optimized for AI citation. Optionally, the AI optimization generates improved HTML code with before/after comparison. Learn more
Three modes under one roof:
The Battle Scheduler automates recurring 1:1 comparisons. You choose the frequency:
Battles run automatically via cron job. You receive the results on the dashboard and in the battle history.
The Sitemap Monitor watches your competitors' sitemaps and automatically detects:
When changes occur, you receive an email alert. This keeps you informed about your competition's content strategy.
The deep analysis crawls 50 or 100 subpages of a competitor domain and delivers:
1 Credits (50 p.) 4 Credits (100 p.)
The Sitemap Hub crawls your entire website via spider, technically checks each URL, and classifies it via AI using advanced language models:
Generates an optimized sitemap.xml for download. 5-tab result: Overview, URL table, AI classification, audit, and download. 1 Credits
7 functions in one tool:
The parser follows Google's specification: wildcards, $ anchors, longest-match-wins. Supports 20 bots in 4 categories (Search, AI, Social, Other).
The Content Optimizer offers two modes:
Integrated citability workflow: Load page, run citability check, generate AI-optimized HTML code — all in one flow.
Yes. The beginner wizard guides you step by step through Rankmio's key features. You choose one of 5 use cases — e.g., website check, keyword research, AI visibility check, competitor comparison, or content optimization — and the wizard shows you exactly which tools you need and how to get started.
Ideal for new users who want to become productive quickly without having to click through all features first. Learn more
The URL Picker is the unified page selector used across all tools. Instead of manually typing URLs, you conveniently choose from three sources:
The modal includes a search function and displays sources clearly separated. Available in subpage analysis, Content Optimizer, GEO audit, answer simulation, and more.
The Lead (creator) creates a team and invites members by email (they must be registered). Then the lead assigns which projects each member can view and edit.
Team management has 3 tabs: Members (invite/remove), Project Assignment (who can see what), and Credit Usage (usage per member).
All actions by team members are deducted from the lead's credit pool. Members' own credits remain untouched. Learn more
The first 2 members are free. From the 3rd member onwards, 20 Credits are charged per added member (one-time). There are no recurring costs for the team itself — only the usual credit costs for features used.

"Ask your Website" is the most advanced AI-powered SEO and GEO advisor on the market. It appears as a floating chat widget on every page in the dashboard. You ask questions in natural language and receive data-driven answers based on your real project data.
The assistant has direct access to all your project-specific SEO and GEO data — Google Search Console metrics, crawled website content, keyword rankings, GEO citability scores, and the complete Rankmio manual. Using RAG technology with vector embeddings, it retrieves precisely the information relevant to your question.
What makes it unique: The agent supports tool-calling — it can autonomously run analyses, fetch SERP data, generate content briefs, and trigger GEO audits directly from the chat. It maintains session memory per project, so follow-up questions build on previous context. Powered by the most advanced AI language models available, no other SEO tool offers this depth of AI integration. It can also be operated via voice input — simply click the microphone icon and speak.
You can ask anything related to your website and its SEO performance. Examples:
The agent uses your real data and never fabricates numbers.
Yes. The agent knows your website content. Crawled page texts, headings, and meta data are automatically analyzed and prepared for the assistant.
This allows it to give concrete content recommendations — for example, which topics are missing on which pages, how a text could be better structured, or whether important keywords are sufficiently covered.
Additionally, the agent knows the Rankmio manual and can answer workflow questions like "How do I start a GEO analysis?" or "What does the Citability Score mean?".
Yes. The agent can execute actions directly on your instruction:
Before each action, the agent displays the credit cost and asks for confirmation. The action is only executed after your approval — no hidden costs.
The chat agent has a generous free allowance:
Actions like website analyses or content briefs cost the standard feature credits (shown before execution). Voice input incurs no additional costs.
Yes. Your conversations are saved per project. You can access and continue previous conversations at any time via the clock icon in the chat header. Click the plus icon to start a new chat.
All data is stored on our Hetzner server in Germany and is not shared with third parties. The content is used exclusively to answer your questions.
Unlike general chatbots like ChatGPT, "Ask your Website" offers a unique depth of AI integration that no other SEO tool on the market provides:
The agent is exclusively specialized in SEO, GEO, and your website. It is the most powerful AI advisor available in any SEO tool today.
