What is the Temso AI API?

Temso ships a genuine public REST API, documented with a live OpenAPI 3.1.1 specification at https://api.temso.ai/v1/openapi.json (docs at docs.temso.ai). The endpoints cover the data a GEO agent actually wants: projects, raw AI responses, accepted brands, brand mentions, source citations, and analytics for visibility, share of voice and brand rankings, plus a POST traffic-ingestion endpoint for piping your own request events in.

On access: REST API integrations appear from the $199 Growth tier (alongside Looker Studio) and on Professional ($499); only the $29 Basic plan lacks them. The MCP server, separately, is on every plan, so the entry price for agent access is $29 for MCP and $199 for the REST API.

There are no documented SDKs, and the OpenAPI file does not declare a security scheme, though access is API-key based in practice. For agents, integration is straightforward REST against a well-structured, documented surface, once you are on the right plan.

Endpoints illustrative. Confirm exact paths against the live API docs before integrating.

Pricing, limits, and integration

Temso's API is part of the SaaS subscription, not a standalone product. REST API access appears from the $199/month Growth plan and on Professional ($499); only the $29 Basic plan lacks it. The MCP server is on every plan, so MCP-based agent access starts at $29.

The API is documented with a live OpenAPI 3.1.1 spec (base https://api.temso.ai/v1) covering projects, AI responses, brands, mentions, sources and analytics (visibility, share of voice, brand rankings), plus POST /traffic/ingest/worker/{sourceId} for event ingestion. Auth is API-key based in practice; the spec does not declare a formal security scheme. No rate limits are published.

Operational limits are lightly documented: no published rate-limit threshold (a 429 error exists, so build in backoff), Bearer tms_ keys that are project-scoped, and required 90-day date filters on data endpoints. There are no SDKs or webhooks. Beyond the REST API, Temso runs a live OAuth MCP server (app.temso.ai/api/v1/mcp, read-only) for Claude, Cursor and ChatGPT, so agents have a no-key path as well as the programmatic one.

How much does the Temso AI API actually cost?

Verify on docs

Temso AI 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.

Temso AI also has an MCP server

If you're wiring Temso AI into Claude / Cursor / Codex, the MCP server is usually less code than the REST API.

What you can build with the Temso AI API

Three personas, three different shapes of build. Pick the row that matches how you actually ship.

SOLO DEV / FOUNDER

Glue Temso AI 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 Temso AI reporting at scale

  • White-label Temso AI data into client-branded dashboards
  • Run scheduled multi-account reports without logging into the Temso AI 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 Temso AI

  • Real-time sync into your warehouse on a cron
  • Custom alerts the dashboard's built-in alerting can't express
  • Backfill + idempotency handling for Temso AI 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.
7/10

Agent-readiness verdict

A real, OpenAPI-documented REST API with the right endpoints for agent workflows, including a traffic-ingestion path. Held back mainly by the lack of SDKs, now that REST API access starts on the $199 Growth tier. Solid 7 out of 10 for API agent-readiness.

Temso AI 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 Temso AI 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.
