blank Overview
blank, known online as @blankwebdev, is the founder of AITDK and a former Tencent employee whose public profile now describes freelance work.[1][2] The same profile lists AITDK, SubmitDirs and Traffic.cv as ongoing products.[1] Together, these products address website analysis, directory distribution and traffic research, giving the portfolio a consistent focus on the practical work of operating websites.[3][4][5]
What blank Built
AITDK
ActiveFounder · SEO tools and browser extension
AI generators and rewriters for website content, paired with a browser extension for traffic research, backlink analysis and on-page SEO checks.
AITDK combines free AI generators and rewriters with a browser extension for website research.[6] The extension brings traffic estimates, backlinks, on-page SEO checks, headings, structured data and domain information into one panel.[3] Its current website also describes a GEO score intended to assess a page's readiness for AI search.[3]
SubmitDirs
ActiveCreator · Directory submission service · Launched Dec 16, 2024
A directory-submission service whose launch offer included manual submissions to 105 directories and a completion report. The product subsequently added its own directory using Mkdirs.
SubmitDirs began as a directory-submission service after blank reported dissatisfaction with services that included low-quality destinations.[4] The launch offer described manual submissions to 105 directories and a detailed completion report.[4] In a separate update, blank said the Mkdirs template was used to add a directory to SubmitDirs itself.[7]
Traffic.cv
ActiveCreator · Website traffic research · Launched Jul 4, 2025
Website traffic research with individual-domain, bulk, keyword and domain-extension searches. Paid plans provide access to traffic and revenue leaderboards.
Traffic.cv provides website traffic research through individual-domain, bulk, keyword and domain-extension searches.[8] Its launch announcement credited Gefei's approach of moving between websites and keywords as inspiration, and explicitly highlighted mobile usability.[8] The current site adds monthly leaderboards covering new, growing and highly visited websites, alongside revenue-oriented discovery boards.[5]
How blank Builds
blank has documented a specific production use of
Cursor: most of the code for AITDK's SEO Issues module was completed using the editor.[9] This supports a feature-level development attribution; the post does not establish that Cursor built the entire product.[9]
Another first-person post compares
Claude Code with Codex using the same prompts and says blank had switched primary coding work to Codex because fewer small problems occurred in that experience.[10] This is a personal workflow report, rather than a controlled performance benchmark, and the post does not identify which Codex interface was used.[10]
The public product history also includes using an existing directory template and initially delivering submission work manually, showing a combination of software development and service delivery.[7][4]
Business Model
AITDK offers free website generators and core extension tools, alongside paid extension plans with larger credit allowances and more detailed traffic data.[11] Its pricing documentation identifies backlink and Reverse AdSense lookups as credit-consuming actions.[11]
SubmitDirs launched with paid submission packages and a defined delivery report.[4] Traffic.cv keeps its traffic-checking tools free while selling monthly or annual Pro access to its leaderboards.[12] These pages establish monetization mechanisms, but do not establish the founder's earnings.[11][12]
Timeline
- AITDK SEO Extension launched on DevHunt; this is a platform launch date, not a claim about its first release.[2]
- blank announced SubmitDirs; the dated X archive matches the service announcement on Jike.[13][4]
- blank announced adding directory functionality to SubmitDirs with Mkdirs.[13][7]
- blank announced the free traffic-checking product identified as Traffic.cv in the corresponding Jike post.[13][8]
Lessons
The coding posts also support a narrower lesson: evaluate assistants against concrete development tasks and describe the scope of their contribution, rather than treating one successful feature or prompt comparison as proof of universal superiority.[9][10]
