quietly.sh is one workspace for the SEO work that normally spans five tools: keyword research, site audits, content, rank history, and the pages themselves.
Most SEO tools own one step. The keyword tool has never seen your audit, the audit has never seen what you published, and the rank tracker has seen neither. Carrying findings between them is most of the job. Here they share one site record, so a finding in one surface opens as work in the next.
Every number the app prints is one it measured. A check that could not run is reported as withheld and left out of the score. A keyword that drops out of the results is recorded as absent, and no chart averages it back in as a position.
01
What is in it
Keyword research that clusters what it finds and marks the phrases your pages already answer. A crawler that scores pages and files findings against them. An editor that scores a draft while you write and publishes to the site you built. A nightly SERP check kept as history you can read back. A JSON-LD generator covering nine rich-result types. Scheduling for the social accounts you connect.
02
Where the name comes from
Search work that holds up is mostly unglamorous: a redirect chain untangled, a title rewritten, a page that answers a question nobody had covered. None of it announces itself, and most of it pays out weeks after you do it.
The app is built for that shape of work. Crawls and rank checks run overnight, findings wait where you will need them, and nothing asks you to watch a dashboard.
03
Three systems, one site record
Audits, keywords, content and tracking are grouped into three systems, and all three read the same site:
01
Build
Generate pages from a demand brief and deploy them. The deployed URL becomes the site record, so audits, rank tracking and internal links all point at the same thing.
02
Discover
Around 120 keywords a run, clustered into a map. Phrases your pages already cover are marked as covered, and the ones nothing answers are what is left.
03
Diagnose
Crawl the site, score it, and open each finding in the surface that fixes it. The score names any check it could not run.
A keyword with nothing answering it opens as a draft. A draft published to the site gets crawled on the next audit. A page that starts ranking shows up in the tracker without anyone re-typing the URL.
04
What it does not do
Worth knowing before you start a trial:
No backlink index. Nothing here crawls the web for links pointing at you, and that surface is off.
No live rank checks. Positions come from an overnight run, and the chart replays the checks it stored.
No keyword volume of its own. Volume arrives from a connected provider, and the priority score reports lower confidence when it is missing.
No free tier. Seven days, then a plan.

Founders
Phil Smith
Co-Founder
Phil Smith is perpetually building, researching, and experimenting. He treats side projects as a thinking tool: small hacks, prototypes, and half-formed ideas that often turn into real products. quietly.sh grew out of that mindset: explore deeply, test assumptions, then build what actually works.
At quietly.sh, Phil focuses on turning AI from an abstract capability into something concrete and useful. He spends as much time questioning why systems behave the way they do as he does writing the code itself. Most of his best ideas start as experiments.
Ken Moody
Co-Founder
Ken Moody is constantly testing, refining, and pressure-testing SEO strategies in real environments. He's spent nearly two decades working directly with businesses: running experiments, measuring outcomes, and adjusting when assumptions break. quietly.sh grew out of that same cycle of applied learning.
At quietly.sh, Ken focuses on translating search behavior into product decisions that hold up under real constraints. His insights come from execution, observation, and a willingness to discard what stops working.
