About us
The WP SEO AI story
At WP SEO AI, we believe a company and its culture should be crafted with the same care as a great product.
2023
How it all started
WP SEO AI started as a side project. Like many entrepreneurs, we built it first for ourselves. We were running our own companies and hitting the same SEO roadblocks everyone knows: scaling content, tracking what works, and seeing what actually drives visibility.
Instead of patching together half-solutions or outsourcing, we built our own. Call it eating our own dog food, solving our own problem, only to realize the problem was everywhere. Across industries, across markets.
What began as an internal experiment proved too valuable to keep in-house. In 2023, Mikael, Henrik and Pontus made the call to turn it into a company. The original idea was never to launch WP SEO AI as a product. But the impact was too strong to ignore.
Our Mission
From day one we have been driven by two clear principles
These guiding principles are not slogans. They are the foundation for how we design our product and how we run our company. Every feature we build is measured against them: does it make SEO easier, fairer, and more transparent for businesses of all sizes?
#1 Making SEO accessible to everyone
#2 Bringing complete transparency to SEO
The types of companies we serve
Who we're built ror
WP SEO AI is a WordPress-native Search Visibility Platform built especially for small and mid-sized businesses generating revenue not freelancers, and not large enterprises with a fully-staffed in-house SEO team.
You're a great fit if:
Your company has at least €1,000,000 in annual turnover.
Your website runs on WordPress. We're deeply integrated into WordPress and don't work with Shopify, Webflow, or custom-built sites.
You don't have or don't want to build an in-house SEO, content, and paid-search team.
You want a managed, hands-off service, not another dashboard to operate yourself.
You're ready to commit to an ongoing program, minimum 12 months, because search visibility compounds over months, not days.
We're not the right fit for:
Pre-revenue startups or freelancers
Businesses under €1,000,000 in annual revenue
Companies not built on WordPress
Results, not just recommendations
What we achieve for our customers in 2026
We don’t just tell you what to do. We do the work, and we stay accountable for the result. Since 2023, we’ve helped more than 2,500 companies across Europe grow their visibility in Google, AI-generated answers, and paid search.
SEO
+108% organic traffic growth and up to 300% more leads
Across a cohort of 66 companies, total organic clicks more than doubled in nine months, while non-AI organic traffic grew by just 11%. For an individual customer, this growth contributed to a 300% increase in leads.ge 1 of Google is no longer enough.
GEO
30% of brand-owned AI citations already come from WP SEO AI content
Our prompt data study shows that 70% of commercial questions are answered using brands’ own sources. WP SEO AI content already accounts for 30% of those brand-owned citations.
SEA
67% lower cost per conversion with WP SEO AI managed ads
Compared with non-managed Search Ads, campaigns managed by WP SEO AI achieve 48% lower costs per click and a 56% higher conversion rate. Continuous testing and optimization turn more clicks into customers while making every advertising euro work harder.
Rated Excellent, and we execute.
Why we're the best at what we do
We hold a 4.8/5 TrustScore (“Excellent” on Trustpilot), based on 224 customer reviews and that trust is earned by actually doing the work, not just advising on it. Most SEO tools hand you data and leave the work to you. Agencies are manual, slow, and expensive to scale. Building an in-house team means hiring separate specialists for SEO, GEO, and paid search. WP SEO AI is different: our AI agents and dedicated human search specialists do the actual work: researching, producing, publishing, measuring, and optimizing your visibility, all from inside WordPress.
The category
The first platform to unify SEO, GEO, and SEA
The integration
Built inside WordPress, not outside guessing
The people

THE MODEL
AI-powered execution, backed by real experts
Today
WP SEO AI in 2026
By 2026, WP SEO AI has grown into a team of more than 200 people, serving over 2,500 customers across Europe. From Finland, Sweden and Estonia to the UK, Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands, we have proven that our approach works across languages, markets and business cultures.
And this is only the beginning. As search evolves with new technologies, AI overviews and smarter advertising, our mission stays the same: to lead in SEO, GEO and SEA innovation. We build tools that help companies stay visible today and prepare for the future of search tomorrow.
WP SEO AI makes digital visibility fair, transparent and achievable for everyone. We believe every company, big or small, deserves a real chance to be found, to compete and to grow.
