Build topical authority in 60 seconds.
Paste any topic. Get the full 60–90-piece content cluster — target keyword, intent and difficulty for every piece — so you rank on Google and get cited in AI answers.
One map. Show up everywhere people search.
Most content doesn’t fail because the writing’s bad. It fails because it’s scattered. Google — and now AI answer engines — reward sites that own a topic completely, not ones that dip in and out.
Building that coverage by hand means hours of keyword research and cluster planning in spreadsheets. TopicMap hands you the whole territory in about a minute.
Rank on Google. Get cited by AI. One map.
Surfer, Ahrefs and Semrush were built for the old search box. The sites that win now are the ones AI answer engines quote — and that comes from the same topical depth that ranks on Google. Nail it once, win both surfaces. (We’ll never promise rankings — no honest tool can. We give you the plan that earns them.)
Complete, interlinked clusters signal genuine authority — the thing core updates increasingly reward over thin, one-off posts.
ChatGPT, Perplexity and AI Overviews cite sources that cover a subject in depth. Coverage is the currency — so the same map wins here too.
From one topic to a full plan
No spreadsheets, no guessing what to write next. Three steps from a seed idea to a publishable roadmap.
Paste a topic
Any subject you want to own — “home coffee brewing”, “freelance invoicing”, “saas pricing”.
Get the full cluster
60–90 interlinked article ideas across 7–9 pillars — every angle Google and AI answers expect you to cover.
Write what ranks
Each idea ships with a target keyword, search intent and a difficulty score, so you start with the easy wins.
Coverage is the strategy
Built for topical authority
Google rewards complete topic coverage, not one-off posts. TopicMap hands you the whole map so you stop guessing what to write next.
Wins Google AND AI answers
The same depth that ranks on Google is what gets you cited inside ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews. One map, both channels.
Start with the easy wins
Every article is scored by difficulty, so you target findable low-competition long-tail first — then compound into the harder terms.
Built for people who live by the SERP
Plan a whole money-site in one paste — instead of weeks of keyword spreadsheets — then publish the easy wins first.
Hand a client a complete topical strategy on day one: pillars, clusters, intent and priority order, ready to scope.
Build category authority fast, so you become the source Google ranks and AI answer engines reach for.
Straight answers
What is a topical map (content cluster)?
A topical map is the full set of interlinked articles a site needs to comprehensively cover a subject. Instead of one big post, you publish a cluster of focused pages around a pillar topic — which is what Google and AI answer engines reward with rankings and citations.
How does TopicMap help me rank on Google?
It turns one topic into the complete content plan to build topical authority: 60–90 article ideas grouped into pillars, each with a target keyword, intent and difficulty. You stop writing random posts and start covering a topic the way the algorithm expects.
Does this work for AI search (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI)?
Yes — and that is the point. Getting cited inside AI answers comes from the same thing that ranks on Google: deep, well-structured topical coverage. Build the cluster and you show up in both.
Is it free?
The map generator is free and needs no login. The paid version (waitlist open) adds real search-data difficulty, ready-to-write briefs for every article, saved projects and export.
How is keyword difficulty calculated?
The free map shows an AI-estimated difficulty to help you prioritise. The paid version replaces it with difficulty from live search data, so you can trust the numbers before you invest in content.
