Tools it offers

50 tools, as the server itself reported during our check on Oct 31, 2026.

• search_rankwise_contentSearch Rankwise's public library: guides, glossary terms, comparisons, free SEO and AI visibility tools, the AI crawler directory (GPTBot, ClaudeBot and others) and the AI engine pages. Returns matching titles with canon
• list_rankwise_sitemapsList the sitemap URLs exposed by Rankwise so agents can enumerate indexable content.
• check_ai_crawler_accessCheck whether AI crawlers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended and others) are allowed or blocked by a website's robots.txt. Returns each crawler's status.
• score_ai_visibilityScore how ready a website's homepage is to be found and cited by AI search engines (crawler access, structured data, content signals). Returns a score, issues and quick wins. This is an on-page readiness check, not a mea
• check_citation_readinessCheck whether a single page is easy for AI engines to quote and cite: clear answers, headings, metadata, authorship and freshness signals. Returns findings for that page.
• get_free_ai_audit_linkGet the link to Rankwise's free AI visibility audit for a domain. The audit checks AI crawler access and technical readiness, and runs live Perplexity queries to see whether the brand is cited. The user opens the link to
• get_workspaceShow the Rankwise workspace this connection acts in: its name, kind (personal or agency client), your role in it, and the permissions this connection has. Every other account tool works inside this one workspace.
• get_plan_and_creditsShow the workspace's billing plan, its credit balance, what one approved brief costs in credits, and the plan limits (domains, questions, AI engines, monthly AI checks). Use it before a tool that spends credits or a plan
• list_sitesList the site this connection reaches: its id (the workspace id), name, tracked domains, and whether automatic articles are on, how many a week, and whether they are paused. A connection reaches one site; connect again (
• pause_sitePause automatic articles for the site. While paused nothing runs on its own: no planner fill, no drafting, no publishing, no credits used. Manual actions still work. Resume with resume_site.
• resume_siteResume automatic articles for the site after a pause. Cards left on days that passed move to the next free publishing days. Resuming is free.
• create_checkout_linkCreate a Stripe Checkout link for a self-serve Rankwise plan (starter, growth or scale) for this workspace's account, and give it to the person. Nothing is charged by this call: the person opens the link and pays in thei
• list_domainsList the domains this workspace tracks for AI visibility, with each domain's id, composite visibility score (0 to 100, null when not scored yet), number of tracked questions, how many questions AI engines mention the bra
• add_domainStart tracking a domain's AI visibility in this workspace. Rankwise seeds the homepage and crawls and scores it in the background. Fails when the plan's domain limit is reached. Free: it uses no credits.
• recrawl_domainQueue a fresh crawl and re-score of a tracked domain's pages. It runs in the background and takes a few minutes; read get_scorecard afterwards. Free: it uses no credits.
• remove_domainStop tracking a domain and permanently delete its questions, AI answers, scores and history. This cannot be undone.
• list_questionsList the questions tracked for a domain (the prompts Rankwise asks AI engines), each with its id, market locale, and the latest check result: cited, not_cited or error, the citation position and when it ran.
• add_questionTrack a new question for a domain, e.g. "best invoicing software for freelancers". Scheduled checks then ask the plan's AI engines whether they cite the brand. Fails at the plan's question limit. Free: it uses no credits
• remove_questionStop tracking a question and delete its check history. This cannot be undone.
• get_scorecardRead a domain's AI Visibility Scorecard: the composite score (0 to 100, null when nothing is measured yet) and the latest score, confidence and recommendations for each dimension.
• list_citationsFor each tracked question and AI engine, show the latest real measurement: whether the engine cited the brand, at which position, which URLs it cited, and when. An engine that failed to answer is skipped rather than coun
• get_share_of_voiceRead a domain's latest AI Share of Voice snapshot: the brand's share of AI answers, its own citations and mentions, the competitor leaderboard, and up to 12 earlier snapshots. Null when it was never measured.
• list_visibility_eventsList recent AI visibility events in the workspace, newest first: citations won and lost, fixes proposed, goals reached. Optionally only since a date or for one domain.
• run_citation_checkAsk the plan's AI engines one tracked question now and record whether each cites the brand. Engines checked in the last few hours are served from that result at no cost. Uses the workspace's monthly on-demand check allow
• refresh_share_of_voiceCapture a fresh AI Share of Voice snapshot for a domain from DataForSEO LLM Mentions. A snapshot from the last 12 hours is returned instead of buying a new one, because the index lags by days. Send a unique idempotency_k
• list_opportunitiesList the workspace's ranked content opportunities: topics where AI engines answer questions the brand is not cited for, scored by demand, citation gap and feasibility. Dismissed topics are left out. Each item says whethe
• refresh_opportunitiesRecompute the workspace's opportunity queue from its tracked questions and AI citation data, and look for new topics. Uses paid search and AI data, so it runs at most once every 10 minutes per workspace. Send a unique id
• dismiss_opportunityRemove one topic from the workspace's opportunity queue. It can be restored in the Rankwise app (Demand page). Nothing is deleted.
• list_briefsList the workspace's content briefs, newest first: drafts waiting for approval (including ones Rankwise suggested), approved pieces being written, and finished ones. Filter by status. An expert sees only the briefs assig
• get_briefRead one brief in full: title, topic, intent, target questions, outline, research notes, suggested sources, status, and the draft article once it exists.
• create_briefCreate a draft brief for an article. Nothing is written or charged until the brief is approved with approve_brief. If tracked_domain_id is left out, the workspace's first tracked domain grounds the brief.
• update_briefEdit a draft brief before it is approved: title, topic, intent, target questions or outline. An approved brief cannot be edited; edit its draft article in the app instead.
• archive_briefRemove a draft brief that was never approved. Approved briefs cannot be archived because their credits were spent. The brief can be restored in the app, and its topic goes back to the opportunity queue.
• approve_briefApprove a draft brief. This debits the workspace's credits (see get_plan_and_credits for the cost) and starts writing the AI draft article, which then waits for review; nothing is published. Re-approving a draft whose ge
• list_articlesList the articles in this workspace, newest first: title, status (generating, ready, published, failed), publish status and published URL. Experts see only the drafts assigned to them. Filter by status or title words.
• get_articleRead one article in this workspace: its metadata, status, meta description, the first 4,000 characters of its text (or the full HTML with include_html), the sources it cites, and the Article and FAQ structured data (JSON
• generate_articleWrite a new AI article for a keyword. It uses the same research-and-cite writer as Autopilot: real sources, links only to pages that exist, a closing call to action, and Article and FAQ schema. This spends workspace cred
• publish_articlePublish one article to the workspace's connected CMS (WordPress, WordPress.com, Shopify, Webflow, Wix, Ghost, Notion, Framer or a self-hosted site). This makes it live on the customer's website. A brief draft must be app
• update_live_postSend the saved version of a published article over its live post, on the site it is already on, so the post changes at its URL and no second post is added. Edit the article first with replace_article. update_live_post up
• replace_articleReplace an article's title, meta description, slug or full HTML body. Send only the fields to change. The slug must be unique in the workspace, and a published article keeps its slug. Open tracked changes are dropped whe
