I had a chance to see this product in preview, and found it a very impressive writing tool, with a ton of potential. If you've been using Yoast or another product to optimize your content for Google, this one's worth a look -- it's bigger than that: distraction-free-writing meets smart suggestions for SEO and beyond.

@randfish Needed a new SEO friendly writing tool. Looking forward to test driving this. Now I just need to get some more time to blog in my schedule.
Alexander De Ridder
Thanks, @randfish Hi, PH community! 😹 We built INK for writers-first, because web content creators are 😤 frustrated to have to rely on an SEO expert to have their content stand a chance in search. Google has moved on from Natural Language Processing to Natural Language Understanding, and so should you. Long-tail-keyword-stuffing tools and so-called ranking factors have become less effective as search has become personalized and unique for each keyphrase. INK was designed from the ground up so that you can keep up with Google without SEO experience. We’ve observed the frustrating process of cobbling together five or more tools to get the job done, in the hope that your content will be good enough to become a Rank Candidate. I’m sure you already have a ton of questions, so … head over to inkforall.com to grab your personal copy of INK. If you have questions, ask our team in the chat on our site. You can 🙌 celebrate the product launch with us, ask ❓ questions, share your 😍 enthusiasm, 💡ideas, and have a 😊 great time. INK is unique: • It was built for content writers • You don’t need SEO knowledge to benefit • You’ll have search-giant-equivalent billion-dollar AI technology at your side How INK works: • Write • Enter your target keyphrase to optimize for • INK AI reads, understands your competition’s content • INK builds an real-time model of what your search audience is looking for • INK reads and scores your content in real-time and gives you sensible, prioritized goals • Publish to your site Geeky Trivia: • Our built-from-scratch semantic AI is able to map more than a quarter of a billion concept combinations in milliseconds for any given piece of content. • With the AI that powers INK, we’ve created the world’s first brain scan visualizations of Google. If you are curious, you can check out our Whitepaper. http://bit.ly/INKwhitepaper • One of the most difficult problems to overcome when building this kind of technology, is to ensure your model identifies and remembers only the most important, relevant information. At one point, we’ve crawled over 100 million search engine results to figure out how to best do this. • Every memorable part of your life deserves a soundtrack. So, before writing one line of code or designing a single screen, our first action was to compose a unique music track to capture the feeling we wanted our users to experience. At every step throughout the development, and design iterations, we listened to this track to ensure we remained true to our vision. • In our meetings, when trying to imagine a solution to a problem, we heavily relied on Plato’s theory of forms to help our team solve user experience or coding problems. While the form of beauty is both ephemeral and elusive, we are to stop and contemplate beauty. And that would lead to us making individual beautiful things. It is astonishing to see how much our team has grown because of this. • After more than 2 years and thousands of hours by a team of truly talented and passionate developers, designers and researchers, I couldn’t be more thrilled to finally share this with the world! And then there’s one more thing, quite important. We’ve taken no outside money or debt to get this far, and while it would be really nice to finally see a paycheck, we’ve made a bold choice to make INK available for 😮 free. We see INK as the ultimate catalyst for our incredible roadmap of innovation in the content performance optimization space. It would mean the world to us if you helped us by sharing INK. Please share INK with your readers, share our precious software via social media, or offline with a friend. Thank you so much!

@adridder there is a problem with the Windows file. I had to change its name to correctly install the app. At first it gave an error. I suppose that the problem is that the file has an ex e (with a space between the x and the second e).
Alexander De Ridder
@luqa Thank you for sharing. Glad you were able to make it install. My team and I tried to reproduce it, and couldn't yet. Nevertheless, we'll keep an eye out. If you need any support, you can reach out to us via the chatbox on our site, the in-app feedback button, or check our support section at help.inkforall.com. We're really happy to have you join us here today! Thank you! 😀
Luca
@adridder It's the first time that happened to me but maybe it was a problem on my side. I don't know. Thanks for your reply.
Alexander De Ridder
@luqa No problem, I'm happy to! Have a nice day!! 😄
Paul Shuteyev
@adridder Hey! INK looks awesome! How about an interview about it at StartupRadius.com? Send me an email to paul(AT)startupradius.com if interested!
Sarah Evans
I have been working with and using INK for the past three months. It has changed the way I want to write. By that I mean: 1. A distraction free writing environment is now a must — I even write non-web content there. 2. I’m not an SEO person and this helps me balance the art of writing with the science of the web. 3. Forces me to know WHAT & WHO I’m writing for from the get go. Thank you to @adridder and team for creating something useful and that solves a very real problem — content creators and writers now have something that will give them an upper hand. It’s like driving with Waze , you can drive without it, but why would you?
Alexander De Ridder
@prsarahevans Thank you Sarah. Your kind words mean a lot to us.
Moin Uddin
Yes! Finally, it's on PH. Have been waiting for this day for so long. ✨⚡️🎉
Alexander De Ridder
@moinism Right?! Thank you for being here on Launch Day!
Peter Shankman
I. Am. In. LOVE with this tool. OMG, where has it been all my life? Simply works, and works SO well. It's become a daily use tool for me. Hate seeing it up here because now more people will find it! But seriously - INK is an amazing tool. So incredibly needed and useful!
Michael Umansky
@peter_shankman thank you for all of your support! Always appreciate your feedback as we have been building INK. You are an awesome INKfluencer.
Alexander De Ridder
@peter_shankman Wow .. love your podcast on ADHD! Thank you so much for your comment!
Kairi Thornton
Surreal! Huge congrats to the whole INK team for creating this super tool 🥳 As of today, the lives of writers and content creators have been changed forever 🤓 INK co-founder @adridder shared some valuable content optimization insights with Tech Republic's Karen Roby -- "Great content needs to be found. It needs to be engaging with your audience. And then to achieve the purpose for which you put it out. It needs to convert." You can watch the interview here: https://tek.io/2nc1Ovi
Alexander De Ridder
@kairi_thornton So Salvador Dali, right? :-) Thank you Kairi, I can't believe today is finally the day INK is launched to the world! Exciting! 🥳
Rechelle Ann Fuertes
Been using INK for a few months now and all I can say is that this tool is a combination of simplicity and sophistication. It's simple enough that anyone can use it without any problem. But, the valuable data it offers is a testament to the advanced data analytics algorithm it's equipped with. It's not designed for newbie writers or experienced content creators. This awesome AI writing assistant is designed for ALL! With INK, web content writers like me can finally say goodbye to long hours of content optimization and editing. Congratulations to the genius team behind this amazing app!
Andrea Slaydon
I have been content writing in one form or another for years. I was lucky to get to test out INK. Once I started writing for SEO purposes, my content was immediately taken to the next level. INK takes the guesswork out of trying to figure out what keywords work best and how to best optimize my work. The thought of trying to figure out Google and stay ahead of the constant algorithm changes seems daunting. Luckily, I don’t have to worry about that. I highly recommend INK!!
Alexander De Ridder
@andrea_slaydon1 Hi Andrea! Thank you so much! You've given us so much feedback during the Beta phase, really appreciated!
Pablo Ariel Mendez
I have seen our Content team drastically improving their performance through the use of Ink Beta, outranking competition. I am happy to see that more will benefit from this Game Changing tool!
Alexander De Ridder
@pablo_ariel_mendez Hey Pablo, thanks for sharing! What is your favorite INK feature?
Pablo Ariel Mendez
Hi @adridder! My favourite feature is the Content Relevance score, it really motivates to continue refining content and helps to understand the balance between the different metrics. I also love that it´s an all-in-one app that doesn´t require the use additional optimization tools.
Hardin Louic
I was lucky enough to be one of the early Beta users and it became my total go-to tool. For anyone who writes for the web, it’s so worth to try. I even used my old texts to see how I’ve done, just for curiosity. You got my Upvote, INK!
Alexander De Ridder
@hardin_louic Thank you so much Hardin for your kind words. I really appreciate our beta testers. It's been a long time and y'alls feedback made INK what it is today!
Maria Kathleen
If you want to rank in today’s super competitive digital marketing space, your article has to be the best article out there on the topic. If you want to be the best, most relevant resource for a certain subject or search term, you absolutely have to take your competition into account. None of these tools I was using really help do that. I found INK for All, in my opinion, it’s the best content tool because it also helps with SEO
Melissa Grove
As early adopters, we’ve been using Ink for several months now and I have to say, it is a game changer for the watch-and-wait SEO environment. Here’s why: it’s a sleek, easy-to-use tool that gives us optimization recommendations in real-time. No more arbitrary word counts or keyword densities – these are reliable suggestions based on semantic AI and we have seen it work! We’re crafting better blogs more confidently, and best of all, we’ve quadrupled our organic traffic - seriously. Ink has become so crucial to our marketing that we have built our entire process around it. Huge kudos to @aridder and his team for taking the guesswork out of content creation!
Alexander De Ridder
@melissa_grove Hi Melissa. Congratulations to you and your team at the launch of the new Laura U interior design site also. You guys have been killing it since you started using INK!
Hazem Hagrass
Finally It's live. Being an INK user is really great honor for me.This tool is just has a magical way to make my writing life more simple with a lot of powerful aspects while writing.
Andy Edwards
Wow such an amazing tool!!!! I’m not a great writer but have often found myself helping friends and families with there websites which always includes some sort of content writing. INK adds the intelligence to my content that I have always struggled with. It does the competitive research and makes recommendations in real time as I write. INK is my secret weapon!
Alice alina
Downloaded it, played around with it. I really like the easy to-dos to make my content pop. Looking forward to seeing what it’s going to do to my ranking.
Alexander De Ridder

Amazing to see INK out in the wild - Alexander and his team have created a seamless experience that quickly becomes an everyday tool for content creators. ✔️ SEO insights ✔️ No fuss deployment ✔️ Grammar & spell check INK 👏 for 👏 all!
Alexander De Ridder
@meghan_zarate Thank you Meghan, so excited!
Athien Richard
There are so many specialized tools out there but I stopped using the majority of them awhile ago. It’s almost 2020, rule-based one-size-fits all just doesn’t cut it anymore. We need to be thinking about search to stand out from the crowd. I needed a more personalized and efficient content creation process, so so so happy that I found INK for All. It’s AI based so it analyzes your content against similar stuff on the web and helps optimize it with suggestions on grammar, spelling, readability, topics, media, you name it.
Maximilian Kalb
This Ink interface is really pretty. Love the writer jokes, too. Great personality. Thank you for making this free.
Alexander De Ridder
@maximilian_kalb Lol, happy you like the jokes :-) Thanks for your review!
Jericka King
