Use RankWay inside Claude, Cursor & every MCP client

RankWay ships a remote MCP server — your AI assistant reads your rankings, AI visibility, audits and competitors without leaving the chat.

Quickstart

Create an API key in RankWay under Settings → RankWay MCP (free account works).
Add the server to your client with the key as Bearer token.
Ask away: "Which of my tracked prompts mention my brand?" — the assistant picks the right tool.

56 tools — the full RankWay toolkit

The MCP server now exposes the same toolkit as RankWay's in-app chat: every read AND every write your assistant needs — from keyword research to publishing an article — always scoped to your own account with the same plan limits as the app. Auth: API key — or OAuth 2.1 with automatic discovery, so clients like Claude and ChatGPT connect with a sign-in instead of a key.

What you can do with it

The obvious one: run the audit-and-fix workflow in Claude Code — your codebase in the editor, your RankWay audit findings, rankings and AI-visibility gaps as live context, and Claude fixes what it can reach. No CSV exports, no stale PDFs — the full walkthrough with the exact prompt is in our Claude SEO audit guide. Pair it with the complete SEO tool for the execution side: content, backlinks and GEO optimization keep running on autopilot while your assistant reads the results.
