Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about SearchPilot
Getting Started
What is SearchPilot?
SearchPilot is an AI-powered SEO execution platform that connects to your Google Search Console and turns your real data into a prioritized action plan. Instead of giving you more dashboards to interpret, it tells you exactly what to work on next.
How do I get started with SearchPilot?
Getting started takes about 5 minutes. Sign up for a free account, connect your Google Search Console, and you'll receive your first prioritized action plan. No credit card required.
What data does SearchPilot use?
SearchPilot uses your real Google Search Console data — the same data Google uses to rank your site. This means recommendations are based on actual performance, not third-party estimates.
Do I need technical knowledge to use SearchPilot?
No. SearchPilot is designed for SEO professionals of all technical levels. The platform translates complex data into clear, actionable tasks that anyone can understand and execute.
Product & Features
What is the Focus Engine?
The Focus Engine is SearchPilot's core intelligence. It analyzes your site's data, understands context, and surfaces the 5 most impactful actions you should take each week. It prioritizes by impact, effort, and risk.
How does cannibalization detection work?
SearchPilot identifies pages competing for the same keywords and recommends which page should win. It considers search intent, current performance, and page authority to give you clear resolution paths.
What is AI search readiness?
AI search readiness evaluates whether your content is likely to be cited in AI-generated answers (like ChatGPT or Google AI Overviews). SearchPilot shows which pages are ready and which need improvement.
Does SearchPilot replace my other SEO tools?
SearchPilot complements your existing tools. It doesn't replace keyword research or technical crawlers — it sits on top of your data and tells you what to prioritize. Think of it as the decision layer.
How often is my data updated?
SearchPilot syncs with Google Search Console daily. Your action plan is refreshed weekly, though you can trigger a manual refresh anytime.
Pricing & Billing
How much does SearchPilot cost?
Pricing scales with your site size. Starter (up to 1,000 pages) is $49/month, Growth (up to 10,000 pages) is $149/month, and Scale (up to 100,000 pages) is $349/month. All plans include the same features — pricing is based purely on site size.

Security & Privacy
Is my data secure?
Yes. SearchPilot uses read-only access to your Google Search Console — we can't make changes to your site or Google account. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest.
Do you use my data to train AI models?
No. Your data is never used to train AI models or shared with third parties. Your Search Console data is used only to generate your action plans.
