Ehsan's Recommendation

Contrarian take: you do not need a bigger team. You need smarter connections between ai writing and seo tools. With Copy.ai feeding into Surfer SEO, you remove the biggest friction point in most code review workflows. The biggest wins come from the second and third workflows you build, not the first. Plan for iteration.
