A Simple Baseline Stack

  • ChatGPT for ideation
  • Notion AI for briefs
  • Ahrefs for SEO research
  • GA4 + Looker for reporting

When You Scale

  • Mutiny for personalization
  • VWO for experiments
  • Clay + Lavender for outbound

Build Your AI‑Powered Growth Engine

Partner with FlowLaunch to design, implement, and operationalize a practical AI stack content ops, SEO, attribution, experimentation, and revenue reporting. Launch in weeks, not months.

Operationalize content and SEO the right way

We help founders set up content workflows, on‑page SEO, internal linking, and reporting so your AI tools actually move pipeline, not just generate drafts.

Implementation Tips That Save Months

  • Create a single source of truth for messaging (Notion, Confluence). Connect it to your content system so briefs, drafts, and approvals stay in one workflow.
  • Use UTM standards, naming conventions, and a weekly growth meeting. AI is leverage; process is the multiplier.
  • Build dashboards that answer "What should we do next?" not just "What happened?" Tie campaigns to activation, retention, and revenue.

Final Word

The best marketers in 2025 won't be the ones who use every AI tool they'll be the ones who turn a focused toolset into predictable pipeline. Start small, measure weekly, and remove anything that doesn't move a metric you care about.
