The Brief

Modern marketing teams often pay for separate SEO, content, crawling, reporting, AI writing, and rank tracking platforms, then spend even more time stitching the data together manually.

Stain Media set out to collapse that entire stack into one workspace. The goal was to create an AI-native, non-technical SEO platform priced for the businesses, agencies, and charities that traditional enterprise tools often price out.

The Result

Search Scope brings research, rankings, technical SEO, content, local visibility, advertising, reporting, AI visibility, client portals, and charity support into one connected SaaS platform.

It is our flagship build, taken from blank concept to live platform, including product strategy, UX, SaaS engineering, AI integration, Stripe billing, and ongoing operations.
