Keyword Intent Classifier FAQ
How accurate is it?
It is as accurate as its word patterns, which you can see for every keyword. Clear queries such as “how to…” or “buy…” are reliable; short head terms are genuinely mixed and get low confidence.
Is an AI model used?
No. The rules are transparent pattern matches that run in your browser. Nothing is sent anywhere.
What is commercial intent?
Research before buying: “best”, “review”, “vs”, “alternatives”. These searches suit comparisons and reviews.
Why check the search results too?
Google shows what people actually want. If the top results for a keyword are all guides, a product page will struggle, whatever the words suggest.
The four intents
Informational searches want an answer or an explanation. Navigational searches want a specific site or page. Commercial searches compare options before a decision, and transactional searches are ready to act – buy, book, download or find a shop nearby.
Knowing the intent tells you which kind of page can rank: a guide, a brand page, a comparison or a product or category page. Mismatched intent is one of the most common reasons good pages fail to rank.

Privacy: everything on this page runs in your browser. What you type or paste is not uploaded, stored or logged, and the result is generated on your device, so you can safely work with unpublished content, client data or drafts.
Tip: the result updates as you type, so you can try variations quickly. Copy the output with one click or download it as a file, and keep a copy of your input if you want to come back later – nothing is saved between visits.
Who it is for: the tool is built for site owners, marketers, writers and developers alike. You do not need to install anything or create an account, it works on phones as well as on desktop computers, and the results are plain text you can paste into any CMS, spreadsheet, code editor or ticket.
Accuracy: the rules used here are documented on the page and follow the published guidelines of the major search engines and web standards. Where a result is an approximation or a rule of thumb rather than an official limit, the page says so, so you can decide how much weight to give it.
Good practice: generated markup and files only help when they match the real page. Publish them together with the visible content they describe, test the page with the official tools from the search engines, and update the markup whenever the page changes.
