Two tracked keywords slipped, and both trace to one audit finding: 27 pages lost their meta descriptions, including both ranking pages. No backlinks were lost, so this is on-page.

Safety

You decide what the AI can do

  • OAuth 2.1 sign-in. You sign in on Ranklogs, so Claude never sees your password.
  • Your account only. The server reads and acts on the connected account's data, nothing else.
  • Read only by default. The four tools that act need you to choose Read and write.
  • Same limits as the app. Usage counts against your plan, with nothing extra to buy.
  • Revoke anytime. Remove the connector in Claude, or reconnect with a different access level.

Ranklogs MCP · FAQ

Questions about Ranklogs MCP

What is an MCP server?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard that lets AI assistants like Claude and ChatGPT securely use external tools and data. An MCP server is the plug-in point: connect it once, and the AI can call its tools inside any conversation. Ranklogs MCP is a remote MCP server for your Ranklogs SEO data.

How do I connect Ranklogs to Claude?

In Claude, open Settings, then Customize, then Connectors. Click + Add and choose Add custom connector. Enter Ranklogs as the name and https://mcp.ranklogs.com/mcp as the MCP server URL, click Continue, and keep the detected sign-in options (Sign in now, Register automatically). Then sign in with your Ranklogs account, choose an access level and approve. It takes about two minutes.

How do I add Ranklogs to Claude Code?

Run: claude mcp add --transport http ranklogs https://mcp.ranklogs.com/mcp. Then type /mcp inside Claude Code, choose ranklogs and sign in with your Ranklogs account in the browser window that opens.

Which AI apps work with Ranklogs MCP?

Claude (claude.ai custom connectors, Claude Desktop and Claude Code), ChatGPT via Developer Mode, and any MCP-compatible client such as Cursor. The connector URL is https://mcp.ranklogs.com/mcp for all of them.

Does it work with ChatGPT?

Yes, via ChatGPT's Developer Mode (Settings, Connectors, Advanced). ChatGPT's standard connector flow only calls generic search and fetch, so it will not see Ranklogs' named tools; Developer Mode is required.

What is the difference between Read only and Read and write?

You choose the access level when you approve the connection. Read only lets the AI look at your data with 23 tools. Read and write also allows the four tools that act: adding keywords to a project, adding an AI prompt to track, generating a content brief and running a Win this prompt analysis. You can reconnect with a different level at any time.

Is Ranklogs MCP included in my plan?

Yes. Ranklogs MCP is included with every Ranklogs account, including the free trial. There is no separate add-on: tool usage counts against your plan's normal limits, the same as using the dashboard.

Can the AI change my data or spend my budget?

Only if you allow it. 23 of the 27 tools are read-only. The four that act need a Read and write connection, and each counts against your plan's normal limits. Generating a content brief or running Win this prompt uses one of your plan's monthly content analyses.

Is my SEO data safe?

You sign in with your own Ranklogs account over OAuth 2.1, the AI app never sees your password, the server only reads that account's data, and you can revoke access at any time. API-key access is available for clients that don't support OAuth.

How many tools does Ranklogs MCP have?

27 tools across eight areas: account and projects, rank tracking, keyword research, site audit, backlinks, competitor research and AI-search visibility, content optimization, plus report and schema generation. 23 are read-only; the other four act inside your plan's limits.

Put your SEO data where the thinking happens

Every Ranklogs plan includes the MCP server, including the free trial. Connect it to Claude in about two minutes.
