Competitor Backlinks AI Analyzer
Paste any competitor domain. AI scans its backlinks, classifies how each link was earned, filters the noise, and turns the replicable ones into outreach prospects.
Scan autobacklinks.ai backlinksThe scan labels every backlink by how it was earned, so replicable links stand out from the noise.
What is competitor backlink analysis?
Competitor backlink analysis
Competitor backlink analysis is the process of studying which sites link to your competitors, how each link was earned, and which of those links you can realistically win for your own site.
Competitor profiles are the fastest prospect source in link building. An editor who linked to a rival has already said yes to your kind of content. You are not guessing whether a site links out to products like yours. The proof is on the page.
The catch is volume. Most of a raw backlink export is noise: directories, scrapers, expired pages, and links won through deals you cannot copy. Reading thousands of rows by hand is where most competitor analysis stalls.
How to analyze competitor backlinks with AI
Pick 3-5 real competitors
Your search rivals are not always your business rivals. Pick the domains that rank for your target keywords and earn links in your niche. Three to five is enough to map the pattern.
Scan my competitors' backlinksQueue a handful of rivals. Each scan pulls the full backlink profile of that domain.
AI classifies how every link was earned
The classifier separates links you can copy, like guest posts, listicles, resource pages, directories, and niche edits, from links you cannot: news coverage, partnerships, job boards. You spend outreach time only on the first group.
Classify how each backlink was earnedEvery backlink gets a verdict: replicable or skip. No more eyeballing URLs one by one.
Filter the noise before it wastes outreach
Set DR and traffic floors once, and AI relevance scoring does the rest. Scrapers, link farms, and off-topic sites drop out before they cost you an email.
Keep sites with DR 50+ and 10K+ trafficWeak referring sites are filtered before outreach starts, not after it fails.
See which sites link to multiple competitors
Scan several competitors and their backlinks merge into one deduplicated list of referring sites. When the same site links to more than one rival, the analyzer flags it: that editor covers your category and has cited companies like yours more than once.
Find sites linking to my competitorsOne list across all your competitors, no duplicate rows. A site citing several rivals is a warmer prospect than one citing one.
Turn qualified links into outreach
Every qualified opportunity gets verified contacts with name, role, and email status. From there, AI drafts the pitch, campaigns send from your mailbox, and replies land in the same workspace.
Find emails for qualified sitesVerified editor and author contacts, attached to the referring site they own.
The backlink metrics the analyzer reads for you
Domain Rating
A 0 to 100 measure of a site's backlink strength. The analyzer uses it as a floor: referring sites below your DR threshold never reach outreach.
Anchor text
The clickable words in the link. The analyzer reads anchors to tell brand mentions, keyword links, and paid-looking patterns apart.
Dofollow vs nofollow
Dofollow links pass authority, nofollow links mostly do not. The analyzer flags each one so you judge a profile by its dofollow core.
Organic traffic
Monthly visits from search. A referring site with real traffic has a real audience, and the analyzer treats near-zero traffic as a warning sign.
Spam signals
Thin content, link farms, and expired-domain rebuilds. The analyzer drops these referring sites so you never pitch a page that can hurt you.
From competitor backlink analysis to earned links
Most tools stop at a CSV export. You get the rows, then rebuild the list in a contact finder, an email tool, and a spreadsheet that goes stale in a week.
AutoBacklinks carries the same rows through qualification, contacts, drafts, sending, and replies. The scan and the campaign share one pipeline, so you can see which competitor scans actually turned into links.
