Part 01 · Overview

Welcome

What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first

2.6

GPA, above 38 of the 51 other keyword research tools we grade

Seed Keywords is a free tool for the start of keyword research. You write a search scenario, such as needing a faulty PC fixed, and share its unique link; the people who open it type what they would search for, and their answers build a list of seed keywords. It supplies no search data of its own and was made by Red Evolution, a UK marketing agency.

To get you started, here are 8 things to know about Seed Keywords, taken from its own pages and our grades.

There are no accounts, so you bookmark the link or lose it.
From our report card of Seed Keywords
  1. 1

    Best for asking real people what they'd search for

    It gives no volumes, difficulty or any other data, and the list stays empty until people answer.

  2. 2

    It is free

    Seed Keywords has no paid plan at all. Free to use with no account: create a scenario, share its link and collect the answers.

  3. 3

    It runs on Web

    Web.

  4. 4

    Search scenarios

    Pose a problem in your own words and ask what people would type into a search engine to solve it; the tutorial advises keeping the wording neutral.

  5. 5

    Shareable answer link

    Each scenario gets a unique URL to send by email, forums or social media. Anyone who opens it can answer, as many times as they like.

  6. 6

    Results list and CSV download

    The scenario's results page lists every suggested phrase, lets you delete entries and downloads the list as a CSV file.

  7. 7

    A 2.6 GPA, above 38 of 51

    That is against the other keyword research tools we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.

  8. 8

    Keep it

    Seed Keywords is free, so making your own would save you nothing.

The report card

Best for asking real people what they'd search for

Seed Keywords is a free web tool for the start of keyword research: you write a scenario, share the link, and the people who open it type what they'd search for. It gives no volumes, difficulty or any other data, and the list stays empty until people answer. There are no accounts, so you bookmark the link or lose it. Past the first brainstorm, you'll need a real keyword tool.

ToolGPA report cardSeed KeywordsGraded Oct 23, 2026
SubjectGradeComment
Value for moneyAFree, with no account and nothing to buy. You make a scenario, share it and download the answers as CSV.
Free plan and trialAEverything is free and there are no limits on record: anyone with the link can answer, as many times as they like.
FeaturesDOne narrow job: collecting phrases from people you send the link to, then linking each to a Google search. No volumes, difficulty or other data, and the maker itself suggests checking the list in a main keyword tool.
Ease of useCNo rating on record. Making a scenario takes a minute, but you're only productive once enough contacts answer, and with no accounts you have to bookmark the link to get back.
Platforms and integrationsCWeb only, with no integrations or API. The results leave as a CSV file.
Grade point averageGood, out of 4.02.6

An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.

Who Seed Keywords is for

  • Fits if you want to hear how customers would word a search, not how you would
  • Works for building a seed list to check later in a keyword tool

Who it is not for

  • Skip it if you don't have contacts willing to answer, as the list stays empty
  • Not for you if you want volumes or difficulty, since it gives no data
  • Too light for anything past the first brainstorm
  • Watch out: there are no accounts, so a scenario is reached only through its URL, which you must bookmark
  • Watch out: it's web only with no integrations, and results leave only as a CSV file

Good to know

Good for

  • Starting keyword research in a niche where tools show little search data
  • Hearing how customers or friends would phrase a search
  • Building a seed list to check later in a keyword tool

Worth knowing

  • Gives no search volumes, difficulty or other metrics; the maker suggests checking the list in a main keyword tool.
  • The list stays empty until people answer, so it depends on sharing the link with enough contacts.
  • There are no accounts: a scenario is reached only through its unique URL, which the tutorial says to bookmark.

Keep it, or make your own?

Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.

Keep it

Seed Keywords is free, so making your own would save you nothing.

And it is not the kind of software a weekend replaces. It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.6 is higher than 38 of the 51 other keyword research tools we grade.

What you could make

  • Surveys: an app builder makes this well.

What you could not

  • Search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date.

What this rests on. Seed Keywords’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
