Ranks Hawk MCP

Give AI agents your SEO data

Connect Ranks Hawk to Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, ChatGPT, or any other MCP-compatible agent, and ask it things like "find me a content gap against my competitors" or "what backlink opportunities do I have this week?" — it reads your account directly.

One server, every client. This isn't a separate integration per AI tool — it's a single OAuth-protected MCP server that any MCP-compatible agent can connect to. Pick your client below.

What it can do

Five read-only tools, all scoped to your own account:

find_content_gap

Keywords a competitor ranks for that you don't — topics worth writing about.

find_backlink_opportunity

Dead competitor pages worth reclaiming, or sites linking to them but not to you.

find_ai_mention

Questions where AI assistants cite a competitor instead of you.

list_competitors

Your tracked competitor domains.

get_account_summary

Your domain, plan, and last analysis run time.

For developers, or any other MCP client

The server speaks standard Streamable HTTP with OAuth 2.0 (RFC 9728 protected-resource discovery, via Clerk). Point any MCP-compatible client at:

https://www.rankshawk.com/api/mcp

No API key or static token — the client discovers the authorization server automatically and opens a browser consent screen on first connect.

Common questions

What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol is an open standard that lets AI agents call tools on external services. Ranks Hawk runs a remote, OAuth-protected MCP server — no local install, no API key to copy.

Is my data safe?

Every tool is read-only and scoped to your own Ranks Hawk account. Nothing is ever written back, and access is revocable at any time from your connected-apps settings.

Do I need a specific plan?

MCP access is available on every Ranks Hawk plan that includes the underlying data (competitors, content gaps, backlinks, AI mentions).

My client isn’t listed — will it still work?

Any MCP client that supports remote Streamable HTTP servers with OAuth should work with the endpoint below, even if we don’t have a dedicated walkthrough for it yet.

Prefer scripting it yourself instead? See API Access in your dashboard for the REST API.
