On July 29, the Collaborator platform held an online contest titled “AI for SEO” in celebration of its anniversary.

31 July 2025

Collaborator is a popular Ukrainian marketplace for publishing content, guest posts, and running digital PR campaigns. The service is widely used by SEO specialists, marketers, digital agencies, and businesses across Europe to effectively promote their projects.

Among the 31 participants, the project submitted by Vadym Lebid, a student of group ITShIp-23-1, received special recognition. His solution is an application designed to automate the evaluation and selection of websites for SEO, outreach, and digital PR campaigns.

Project highlights:
The tool helps marketers, SEO experts, link builders, and digital agencies streamline the process of selecting platforms for content placement. The system automatically uploads and analyzes domain data (traffic, price, DR, Moz DA, niche, sensitive topics, etc.), allows flexible filtering of results, generates SEO metric forecasts, and provides an AI-based conclusion on the relevance and feasibility of cooperation with each site.

“I was pleasantly surprised when I learned my project had been recognized. For me, it’s confirmation that modern data science and AI tools can truly boost the effectiveness of SEO professionals. Thanks to the department’s faculty for their support!” — commented Vadym.

The contest jury praised the high level of the solution:

“It’s at the level of a ready-made SaaS product for SEO and digital agencies. It combines data science, AI, and SEO analytics in a single system. The potential for commercialization is very high, especially as a white-label or corporate tool for agencies.”
