Your SEO and AI visibility, inside ChatGPT and Claude

Connect Rankfender to the AI assistant your team already uses. Ask about rankings, traffic, competitors and what up to 8 AI engines say about your brand. Then let it plan, write and schedule the work, with your approval at every step.

Included in the Professional, Business and Agencies plans.

What you can do from a chat

Every answer comes from your Rankfender project, with the date and source of each number.

Your weekly SEO manager

“What should we do this week?”

The assistant reads your overview, weekly insights, alerts and Strategy, and turns them into three priorities, each tied to a number.

Explain a traffic change

“Why did organic traffic drop?”

Rankings from Rankfender’s own search data, Search Console and Analytics when connected, the site audit and alerts, checked together.

See what AI engines say

“Why does ChatGPT recommend our competitors?”

Mention rate per engine, the actual answers, the sources they cite and the competitors named instead of you. Re-run a check when you need fresh data.

Competitor teardown

“Why does this competitor outrank us?”

Landscape, keyword gap, top pages, backlink gap and site profile. Missing data can be measured on request, with the credit cost shown first.

Keywords, kept clean

“Which keywords have buying intent?”

List, search, add and remove tracked keywords. The assistant is warned about off-intent keywords and near-duplicates before it adds them. Removed keywords can be restored.

Plan the content

“Turn our top 3 opportunities into articles for next month.”

Opportunities become article ideas on the calendar. Schedule, move or take articles off the calendar, with one article per keyword so pages never compete.

Write and improve articles

“Rewrite the intro of this article to answer the question first.”

Have Rankfender’s content engine write an article, read any article with its quality score, edit a section, or rewrite it with instructions. The previous text is always kept.

Fix technical issues

“What should we fix first on the site?”

Read the latest audit, run a new one, or check one page now. In Claude Code or Cursor, developers fix the issues in the site’s code in the same session.

Work through your tasks

“Take my top task, do it, and mark it done.”

The assistant reads why the task exists and how to fix it, does the work with your approval, and updates the Planning board. Its own findings can become new tasks.

Track the right AI questions

“Add five buyer questions to AI tracking.”

Add, reword or pause the prompts Rankfender asks AI engines for your brand, then run a check to see where you stand.

Reports in one request

“Write this week’s client update and give me a report link.”

A written weekly summary, plus a shareable report covering organic search, AI visibility, keywords, backlinks and content.

All your clients at once

“Which five clients need attention this week?”

One sign-in covers every project. The portfolio view shows each project’s trends and alerts with how old the data is, so stale numbers are never ranked as fresh.

Who it is for

Anyone who would rather ask a question than open ten dashboards.

SEO agencies

Every client project behind one connection. Triage the portfolio, prepare client updates and act on the findings in minutes.

In-house SEO and content teams

Know what to do this week, keep the calendar on track and turn the Strategy into finished tasks.

Founders and small teams

Plain-language answers about where you stand and what to do next, without learning an SEO tool.

Content marketers

From keyword to article idea, written draft and calendar date in one conversation.

Brand, PR and GEO teams

See what AI engines say about your brand, which sources they trust and which competitors they name instead.

Developers

Read audit findings in Claude Code or Cursor and fix them in the codebase, without leaving the editor.

Connect in a few minutes

One URL for every AI app. You sign in to Rankfender, choose the projects, and decide whether the assistant can make changes.

Connector URLhttps://app.rankfender.com/mcp

Claude

  1. In claude.ai, open Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector.
  2. Paste the connector URL, then sign in to Rankfender and click Allow.

Also works in Claude Desktop and Claude Code.

ChatGPT

  1. In ChatGPT settings, add a connector (developer mode) with the connector URL.
  2. Sign in to Rankfender, choose your projects and click Allow.

Needs a ChatGPT plan that allows custom connectors.

Claude Code, Cursor and other MCP apps

  1. Add the connector URL as a remote MCP server.
  2. Sign in when the app asks.
claude mcp add --transport http rankfender https://app.rankfender.com/mcp

Or use a project API key for read-only access to one project.

You stay in control

Built for AI assistants that act, with the guardrails a business needs.

  • Read only unless you tick “Let … make these changes” when you connect. You can change this or disconnect at any time in Account Settings → API Keys → Connected AI apps.
  • The assistant asks before every change. Paid actions first answer with the cost in credits and your balance, and wait for your yes.
  • Nothing is ever deleted. Removed keywords and competitors are hidden and can be restored, articles are only taken off the calendar, and edits keep the previous text as a version.
  • Your website never changes from a chat. An edited article goes live only when someone clicks “Update on your site” in Rankfender.
  • Team viewers can only read. Project API keys are always read only.
  • Limits protect your account: at most 7 articles written or rewritten per project per day from AI apps, and 100 changes per project per day.

AI answers can be wrong

The assistant you connect (Claude, ChatGPT or another app) writes the answers, and it can be wrong. Rankfender gives it every number with its date and source, so check important figures in Rankfender before acting.

Plans and credits

Included in Professional and above

The connection is part of the Professional, Business and Agencies plans. The plan of the project owner counts, so the whole team can use it.

Reading is free

Questions about rankings, traffic, AI visibility, competitors, audits, articles and tasks use no credits.

Paid actions show their cost first

Writing or rewriting an article, an AI visibility check and a fresh competitor measurement use credits from the project owner’s account. The assistant shows the cost and waits for your yes.

Frequently asked questions

What is an MCP server?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard AI assistants use to connect to other software. Rankfender’s MCP server lets Claude, ChatGPT and other MCP apps read your Rankfender project and, if you allow it, act on it.

Which AI apps work with Rankfender?

Claude (claude.ai, Claude Desktop, Claude Code), ChatGPT with custom connectors, Cursor, and other apps that support remote MCP servers with sign-in. Apps that only accept a key can use a read-only project API key.

Which plans include it?

Professional, Business and Agencies. The project owner’s plan counts, so team members with access to the project can connect too.

Can the assistant change my project?

Only if you tick “Let … make these changes” when you connect, and only for team members with editor rights. It asks before every change. Otherwise it can only read.

Can it delete my data?

No. Removing a keyword, competitor or tracked prompt hides it and can be undone. Articles can only be taken off the calendar, and edited text keeps the previous version.

Can it publish to my website?

Yes, if you allow it. Publishing is a separate tick on the sign-in page, off by default. The AI app asks you first and says what will happen, and Rankfender’s publish check runs before anything goes live. It works with sites connected through the Rankfender WordPress plugin or a webhook, and it never unpublishes. Without that tick, your website changes only when someone clicks “Update on your site” in Rankfender.

Does it use credits?

Reading uses no credits. Writing or rewriting an article, AI visibility checks and fresh competitor measurements use credits from the project owner’s account, and the assistant shows the cost before it starts.

Does it work without Google Search Console?

Yes. Rankings and organic traffic come from Rankfender’s own search data. Search Console and Analytics add clicks, impressions and sessions when the project has connected them.

Can I connect several projects or clients?

Yes. One sign-in can cover all your projects, including ones you add later, or only the projects you tick. The assistant asks which project you mean when you have several.

Is my data used to train AI models?

Rankfender sends your project data only to the AI app you connect, when it asks. How that app handles your conversations depends on its own settings and terms, so check them for your plan.
