How much does the AutoSEO API actually cost?
Verify on docs
AutoSEO publishes an API, but per-tier gating wasn't extracted automatically.
- Most likely scenario: API access is either included in all paid plans, or it's gated to higher tiers and we need to verify on the live docs page.
- Until verified, treat the question "which plan unlocks the API" as open. Don't budget on the assumption it's free with the cheapest paid plan.

AutoSEO also has an MCP server
If you're wiring AutoSEO into Claude / Cursor / Codex, the MCP server is usually less code than the REST API.

Three personas, three different shapes of build. Pick the row that matches how you actually ship.
SOLO DEV / FOUNDER
Glue AutoSEO into your daily workflow
- Pull a digest of ranking changes into your morning Slack
- Trigger a one-off backfill when something looks off
- Pipe data into your own SQLite for ad-hoc queries
Effort: A weekend, one Node or Python script
AGENCY / CONSULTANT
Sell AutoSEO reporting at scale
- White-label AutoSEO data into client-branded dashboards
- Run scheduled multi-account reports without logging into the AutoSEO UI
- Cross-reference with the rest of the client's stack (CRM, analytics, ad spend)
Effort: 1-2 weeks, hits multi-tenant auth quickly
IN-HOUSE ENGINEER
Production pipelines for AutoSEO
- Real-time sync into your warehouse on a cron
- Custom alerts the dashboard's built-in alerting can't express
- Backfill + idempotency handling for AutoSEO data older than the dashboard exposes
Effort: Multi-week project, expect rate-limit tuning
Limits and gotchas
- No OpenAPI spec — you write typed clients by hand or use a third-party generator on the docs HTML.
- No official SDK detected. Plan on hitting the API directly with your HTTP client of choice.
- Rate limits: always read the docs page before scaling — the published limit is usually lower than the practical one and overages can be expensive.

AutoSEO API FAQ
Should I use the API or the MCP server for Claude / Cursor / Codex?+
Prefer the MCP server for agent workflows — it's less code and pre-handles auth flows. Use the REST API for scheduled jobs, dashboards, and anything outside an LLM-driven flow.
Does AutoSEO have a public API?+
Not documented publicly as of the last check. Some tools expose private/partner APIs — contact sales if you need programmatic access.
