SEO & Growth Partner for US Founders
Senior SEO, AEO and growth strategy for US SaaS, D2C and B2B founders. USD invoicing, ET–PT overlap, no junior account managers. New York, SF, Austin, Chicago.

Senior strategy at half the bay-area burn rate.
American founders — especially seed and Series-A SaaS, ecommerce and professional-services brands — hire Brand Ratna because we deliver work that competes with US$25k/month retainer shops at roughly a third of the cost, with no junior account-handler layer between you and the people doing the work. We are not an offshore "scale team". We are a senior, in-house company that just happens to be headquartered in Pune.
Our US engagements typically start with a 30-day diagnostic: a technical SEO audit benchmarked against your top SERP competitors on google.com, a content-gap analysis run against AI Overviews and Perplexity, and a paid-channel review across Google Ads, LinkedIn and Meta. From day 31, you get a rolling 90-day roadmap with weekly Loom updates and a single Slack channel with the entire team.
New York, San Francisco, Austin, Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami.
We work with US founders in two profiles: (1) bootstrapped or seed-stage SaaS and D2C brands who cannot justify a $25k/month US agency but refuse to settle for a freelancer; and (2) Series-A to Series-C teams whose growth has plateaued and need a senior SEO/AEO partner to rebuild the pipeline without rebuilding the org chart.
FAQs
Are you an offshore agency?
No. We are a senior, in-house company with a single accountable team per client. There is no junior account-management layer between you and the strategists, writers and engineers doing the work.
How do you handle US time zones?
Every US client has a daily 2-hour overlap window with their core team (typically 8–10am ET) plus async-first reporting in Slack and Loom for the rest of the day. Most clients tell us we are more responsive than their previous US-based agency.
Can you invoice in USD?
Yes — USD invoicing, W-8BEN-E on file, and payments accepted via ACH, wire or credit card.
Do you have US client references?
Yes. After a scoping call we'll connect you with two current US clients in a comparable stage and category so you hear the experience directly.
What's the minimum engagement?
A 30-day paid diagnostic ($2,400) followed by a 90-day rolling retainer. No annual contracts, no exit fees.
