I Built an AI Blog Writer with Built-in SEO Scoring

Why I Built BlogAI

As a developer who blogs, I was frustrated with the content creation process:

  1. Write a draft (2-3 hours)
  2. Edit and polish (1 hour)
  3. Optimize for SEO (another hour of research)
  4. Hope it ranks

So I built BlogAI - an AI blog writer that includes real-time SEO scoring.

How It Works

  1. Enter your topic and target keywords
  2. AI generates an SEO-optimized blog post
  3. Get a 0-100 SEO score with detailed breakdown

The SEO Score Breakdown

Every generated post is analyzed across 6 dimensions:

Metric Max Points What It Measures
Keyword Presence 20 Keywords in title, headings, intro
Keyword Density 15 Optimal 1-3% density
Readability 20 Sentence length, complexity
Structure 15 H2/H3 headings, paragraphs
Meta Quality 15 Meta description length
Content Length 10 Word count vs target

Plus actionable suggestions to improve your score.

Tech Stack

  • Frontend: Next.js 16 with TypeScript
  • Styling: Tailwind CSS
  • AI: Groq (Llama 3.3 70B)
  • Auth: NextAuth.js
  • Database: NEON PostgreSQL + Drizzle ORM
  • Payments: Stripe

Pricing

  • Free: 3 posts/month (no credit card)
  • Pro: $19/month (30 posts)
  • Team: $49/month (100 posts)

What's Next

I'm planning to add:

  • WordPress direct publishing
  • Content calendar
  • Team collaboration features

Would love to hear your feedback! What features would make this useful for your blogging workflow?
