Give Cedric a few seed keywords. He pulls volumes, competition and bids from Keyword Planner, groups the results by what people want, and tells you which page or ad group each group belongs to.

What is AI keyword research?
Keyword research answers two questions before you write a page or build an ad group. How many people search for this, and what do they want when they do? The first answer is a number from Keyword Planner. The second takes judgment: someone has to read the list, group it and decide where each group goes.
Done by hand, that is an afternoon. You export a CSV from the planner, sort it and delete the junk. Then you colour the rows by theme and argue about which theme deserves a page. Most of the work is the sorting, so it rarely gets redone.
Cedric does the sorting. He makes the Keyword Planner request through your Google Ads connection, reads what comes back, and groups the keywords by intent. You get the plan in the channel, and you argue with the plan instead of the spreadsheet.
He also says how complete the data is. In the run behind this page, the planner sent back a short answer. Cedric said so first, built the plan from what he had, and offered a second run.
What comes back.
Five things for each group of keywords, from one request.
- ✓Monthly volumeThe 12-month average for the countries and language you name.
- ✓CompetitionHow many advertisers bid on it, as low, medium or high, with Google's index.
- ✓Bid rangeThe low and high top-of-page bid, so you know what a click might cost.
- ✓IntentWhat the searcher wants, which decides the page or the ad copy.
- ✓Where it goesA page, an ad group, or neither, with the reason in one line.
How it works.
One message, one planner request, one plan.
Connect Google Ads
Sign in with Google from the Cedric dashboard. A read-only connection is all this job needs.
Send the seeds
Three to ten keywords, in plain words, in the channel. Name the countries and the language if they matter. Otherwise Cedric asks, or uses what he already knows about your market.
One planner request
Keyword Planner limits how often an account can ask. So Cedric sends one request with your seeds, and the planner adds its own ideas around them.
Groups and a map
The keywords land in groups by intent, each with its volume, competition and bid range. Then the map: which group gets its own page, which one becomes an ad group, which one is not worth money at all.
Build, or schedule
Take the map to your writer, or have Cedric build the ad groups in Google Ads. For a monthly re-run, say so in the thread.
What waits for your approval.
Research is reading. Cedric runs the planner request, sorts the results and posts the plan without asking anyone. Nothing in your ad account changes, and nothing spends.
Acting on the plan is different. Each change comes as a card that names the account and every keyword, and nothing happens until someone approves it. A member of your workspace switches on writing for Google Ads first.

Once a month, what moved.
Search volumes move with the season, and a keyword with little competition does not stay that way. Ask Cedric to re-run the same seeds on the first Monday of each month. He compares the new numbers with the last run and posts only what changed enough to matter.
Re-run these on the first Monday of every month.

Monthly · first MondayHow to read the planner's numbers.
A month is not the average. Each volume is a 12-month average across the countries you asked for. A single month can swing a lot. In the run above, one keyword went from 2,900 to 12,100 searches, depending on the month.
Low competition is not a promise. The competition index counts advertisers in the auction, not whether they made money. A quiet keyword may be quiet because others tried it and left.
Bid ranges are estimates. They are what Google expects a top-of-page click to cost, not what you will pay. Where the account already bids on a keyword, Cedric puts your real cost per click beside the estimate.
Keyword research with Cedric, answered
Yes, for the slow parts: pulling the numbers, cleaning the list, grouping keywords by intent and matching each group to a page or an ad group. Cedric does all of that from one message. Deciding what your company should rank for is still a conversation for your team.
From Google's Keyword Planner, through your Google Ads connection. The volumes, competition and bid ranges are Google's own figures, and Cedric names the countries and months they cover.
Yes. Keyword Planner lives inside Google Ads, so Cedric asks it through your account. The account does not need a live campaign or any spend.
Good for comparing keywords, loose for exact counts. Google rounds each volume into a bucket, so treat 6,600 as "a few thousand a month" rather than a precise number.
Yes. That is most of the job. Each group comes with the keywords, the match type he suggests and the page it should land on.
It does a different job. An SEO suite tracks rankings over time and keeps its own keyword database, and if your team lives in one, keep it. Cedric starts from Keyword Planner and your ad account, and ends with the plan: which page, which ad group, and why.
Start with three to ten seeds. The planner suggests related ideas around each one, so the list grows from there. Keep one job to one theme, and the groups stay easy to read.
