Onpage Pilot was born out of frustration — and a vision.
For more than 12 years, Brian Petersen has lived and breathed SEO. From consultant to manager to Head of SEO, he's worked with countless tools along the way.
But every time, the same problem appeared: none of them could do it all. Switching between platforms, dealing with missing features, and patching together workflows wasn't just inefficient — it was holding SEO specialists back. Brian knew there had to be a better way. A single, holistic platform powered by AI and machine learning. A tool designed not just to analyze, but to understand. Not just to report, but to guide.
To make it a reality, Brian turned to the one person he trusted most: Claus Valgren. A senior developer with deep roots in the SEO world, Claus had built his own semantic search engine (SiteXploration) more than a decade ago — long before AI became the buzzword it is today. Having worked together before, Brian and Claus shared not just expertise, but vision and trust.
