Connected in three steps

No SDK, no integration project. If your client speaks MCP, you're minutes away.

01

Grab your API key

Generate a key from your EvidentlyAEO workspace settings — it scopes the MCP server to your brands and data.

02

Add the server

Paste one JSON block into your client's MCP config — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor or anything MCP-compatible.

03

Start asking

"Which sources cite my competitors but not me?" The model picks the right tool, pulls live data and answers in plain English.

Your whole dashboard, conversational

Every number the platform tracks becomes something you can simply ask for.

Five data domains, sixteen tools

Dashboard KPIs, query intelligence, citation analysis, recommendations and domain readiness audits — each exposed as typed, documented MCP tools.

  • Dashboard: summary KPIs, competitors, LLM breakdown, action items
  • Queries: summaries, trends, overlap, per-engine collector breakdowns
  • Citations: top sources, source detail, competitor gaps, trends
  • Recommendations & domain readiness audits, on demand

Built for agent workflows

Because it's standard MCP, your AEO data slots straight into agent pipelines — weekly report generators, alerting agents, or a Claude Code session that cross-references your visibility while you work.

  • Works in Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor out of the box
  • Compose with your other MCP servers in one conversation
  • Automate recurring analyses with scheduled agents

Based on the latest data, **Acme Corp** leads with a **68% Share of Answer** for that topic.

Grounded by a metric dictionary

The server ships a metric-dictionary resource defining Visibility, Share of Answer, presence rate, sentiment and null-value rules — so models interpret your numbers correctly instead of guessing.

  • Canonical definitions for every metric
  • Consistent answers across clients and models
  • Fewer hallucinated interpretations of your data
Metric Dictionary
Share of Answer (SOA)
The percentage of AI citations or recommendations captured by a brand within a query subset.
Presence Rate
The ratio of AI search responses containing any mention of the brand.
Sentiment Score
Evaluated 0–100 score mapping brand perceptions in AI replies, identifying negative attributes.

One config block away

Add this to your client's MCP configuration and your AEO data is live in the conversation.
