SemanticOS turns your domain into a semantic topical map: an entity-based plan of pillar, cluster and supporting pages with search intents, URL paths and internal links. Then it writes a semantic-SEO brief for every page and gives you 87 semantic SEO tools to build topical authority.
You bring your own Claude API key to use the tool.
A topical map creation tool that does the work a spreadsheet never could — no manual clustering, no guesswork.
Type your domain or seed keyword. Tell SemanticOS your entity type, audience, and target market. That’s all the input you need — no technical setup, no onboarding calls.
SemanticOS analyzes entity-attribute relationships, keyword clusters, and SERP intent to generate a complete pillar–cluster–supporting architecture with semantic-SEO briefs for every article.
Export to CSV, XLSX, Markdown or PDF. Track entity drift, detect cannibalization, monitor E-E-A-T signals, and use 87 tools to close every semantic gap until you dominate your niche.
A semantic topical map is a topical map built from entities and their relationships instead of from a keyword list. It starts with one central entity (what your site is about), breaks it into the attributes searchers care about, and turns each attribute into a page with a search intent, a URL and internal links to its parent and siblings.
A keyword-based map groups queries that look alike. A semantic SEO topical map decides what your site should publish, where each page sits in the hierarchy, and how meaning flows between pages, so search engines can read your coverage of the whole topic, not just one query at a time. That is how topical authority is built.
Create a semantic topical map from your domain in minutes: pillars, clusters, intents and URL paths.
Central entity, EAV architecture, entity drift and schema: the entity-based SEO layer around the map.
Measure coverage, find topical gaps and fix cannibalization until the site owns its topic.
Turn every node on the map into a writer-ready semantic SEO content brief.

SemanticOS starts from your central entity, not from a keyword list. Enter your domain, confirm the entity and its attributes, and SemanticOS constructs a full pillar–cluster–supporting architecture aligned with how Google models a topic. See how to create a topical map with AI →

Input your domain and business context. SemanticOS analyzes your niche, entity type, and competitive landscape to generate a semantically complete topical map structured around entity-attribute relationships.
Every map follows a strict three-tier structure: pillar pages establish authority, cluster articles cover intent variations, and supporting content closes semantic gaps — mirroring Google’s entity model.
Visualize coverage on a live heatmap — which attributes are covered, which are thin, which articles compete for the same intent. Fix gaps before they cost you rankings.
SemanticOS generates semantic-SEO content briefs that tell writers exactly what to cover, how to structure it, and which entities to include — not just a keyword list. Explore the content brief generator →
| H1 | Espresso brewing: complete guide | entity:espresso |
| H2 | What is espresso? (definition) | attr:definition |
| H2 | Espresso machine attributes | attr:hardware |
| H3 | Pressure (9 bar standard) | val:9bar |
| H3 | Boiler types: single, dual, heat-exchange | val:boiler |
| H2 | Grind size and dose ratio | attr:grind |
| H2 | Related: ristretto, lungo, americano | rel:variants |
Every brief includes a semantically ordered heading hierarchy — central entity, attributes, related entities, question-based sub-topics — structured to match how Google reads a comprehensive article.
SemanticOS checks SERP intent signals before generating a brief. If two articles compete for the same query, it flags the conflict and recommends consolidation or redirection — saving you from cannibalization before it happens.
Turn any brief into a full draft. SemanticOS injects NLP-confirmed semantic terms, entity co-occurrences, and contextual phrases at the right density — natural reading, full signal coverage.
Google’s ranking model is built on entities, not keywords. SemanticOS gives you the tools to define, build, and protect your entity identity across your entire site. What makes it a semantic SEO tool → · How it measures topical authority →
| kind | key | meta | value |
|---|---|---|---|
| entity | Espresso machine | type | product |
| attribute | pressure | unit | bar |
| value | 9 | confidence | 0.97 |
| attribute | boiler_type | unit | enum |
| value | dual | confidence | 0.91 |
Map every entity your site claims to be about — its attributes, values, and relationships. The EAV structure becomes the backbone of your topical map, internal linking, and schema markup.
Close the gap between claimed and perceived identity. Entity Drift compares what your content claims versus what Google’s entity model assigns, then surfaces the exact articles causing misalignment.
Build structured author profiles, credential pages, and organization schema that demonstrate real Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness — the signals that decide high-stakes queries.
SemanticOS replaces the fragmented stack most SEOs use — a topical map tool, a content brief generator, a keyword clustering tool and an entity SEO auditor in one. Everything is connected: your topical map drives your briefs, your briefs drive your audits, your audits update your map.
Reverse-engineer competitor topical maps. See which entity clusters they dominate and which gaps they left open.
Apply entity SEO principles to your GBP listing. Align profile attributes with what Google expects for your category.
Connect Search Console to track Pillar Page Rank — a composite authority score per cluster based on impressions, clicks, position trends.
Measure how semantically close any two pieces of content are. Confirm internal links make semantic sense before publishing.
Generate topical maps and briefs in 15+ languages, with entity-attribute structures adapted for regional search intent — not just translated.
Design entity-driven programmatic templates at scale. Define entity, attributes, and pattern once — generate thousands of unique pages.
Most SEO tools treat semantic SEO as an afterthought and bolt a cluster view onto a keyword tool. SemanticOS is purpose-built topical map software, built on entity-based semantic SEO principles — giving you depth no general tool can match.

Unprompted 5-star reviews from SEOs using SemanticOS to build topical maps — screenshotted as published.
“It’s been an absolute game changer for us so far! I used to spend hours manually scraping the SERP’s and putting together semantic content briefs… the team was averaging about 16 hours per topical map for onboarding clients, which is now done in minutes to a super high standard. The tool has paid for itself twice over already!!”

The $7 trial is a 7-day preview of Starter, not a tier of its own — it opens exactly what Starter opens, so upgrading never takes a feature away. Every plan runs on your own Claude API key, which is why there are no credit packs or generation caps anywhere in this table: AI usage is billed to you by Anthropic at cost.
SemanticOS exists because I got tired of SEO tools that chased keyword density while Google had already moved to entity-based search. I spent years studying entity-based semantic SEO — how Google’s Knowledge Graph models topics, entities, and their attributes — and realised there was no platform that actually operationalised it for practitioners.
So I built one. SemanticOS is the tool I needed when I was manually constructing topical maps in spreadsheets at 2 a.m. Every workflow in the platform comes from real SEO work: the topical map builder, the EAV architecture generator, the entity drift analyser, the E-E-A-T credential system — all of it. No bloat, no buzzwords. Just the frameworks that produce durable rankings.
If you’re serious about topical authority, I built this for you.
52 straight answers, grouped by what you’re trying to decide.
The short version: it plans what your site should publish, why, and how every page connects.
SemanticOS doesn’t replace your keyword or backlink tools. It’s the planning and architecture layer that sits on top of them.
What happens under the hood, and where you stay in control.
Whichever kind of site you run, the method is the same: start from your entity and source context, then build outward.
The map is where the work starts, not where it ends.
Plain answers on cost, trials and limits.
Clustering groups keywords that look alike. A semantic map decides what your site should publish.
