BacklinkGPT

An outreach agent for a business website

BacklinkGPT researches backlink opportunities, finds relevant contacts and drafts outreach for owners promoting their own business. It reads the supplied website to develop positioning, target pages and search terms, then examines search results and other sites' backlink profiles for prospective opportunities.

The current product is aimed at founders and businesses without a dedicated SEO team. Its homepage distinguishes that use from agencies reselling links or managing client sites. The agent can support the research and conversation workflow, but a publisher still decides whether to respond or include the business. A subscription does not purchase a promised number of links.

Guide prospecting with the Playbook

The Playbook controls the site's description, target pages, keywords, competitors, contact policies, budget and pacing. Standing instructions can influence targeting, sourcing and writing. Blocked domains and ask-first policies help keep the agent's research aligned with existing relationships.

Prospects receive a keep, drop or second-look decision with an explanation. Contact discovery identifies people associated with the page, and drafts use information from that page to support a relevant request. The documentation also covers connected email senders, LinkedIn, conversation management and monitoring of won links.

Review mode and automatic sending

The sending guide says every new workspace starts with approval required. Drafts show the recipient, prospect page, proposed target page and message, with editing and rejection controls. Trial users send drafts themselves; connected-account sending starts with a paid plan.

Email can switch to automatic sending after the documented clean-approval conditions are met, unless the team chooses to keep reviewing every email. LinkedIn does not switch automatically. Prospect replies still require approval. Turning off automatic sending does not cancel messages already scheduled, so those need to be reviewed separately. These distinctions matter when assigning someone responsibility for the inbox.

A concrete campaign and its limits

A software founder could begin with a useful product guide and a narrow audience. Review the website brief, exclude existing partners from routine outreach and inspect the first prospective pages. Correct an inaccurate product claim in a draft, then approve the relevant messages and review responses before agreeing to any placement terms.

Keep the Playbook and queued work consistent when the offer changes: the documentation says new guidance affects the agent's next steps rather than rewriting existing drafts. Evaluate topical relevance and the actual page, not only a domain metric. The vendor also identifies English-language markets as its strongest fit and says it does not currently track AI mentions. Neither a backlink nor a brand mention guarantees search visibility.

Plans, preview and separate fees

The pricing page offers a no-card preview and paid plans starting with Starter at $149 monthly. Growth and Scale increase prospecting and outreach capacity. Publisher fees sit outside the subscription and require approval; extra sender accounts and optional prospect credits can also add cost. Compare the actual domain, team and sending allowances before selecting a plan.
