Rankwise
AI search visibility: see if ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Gemini cite a brand, then win it back.
What it does
Rankwise is an MCP server, a connector that lets an AI assistant use it as a tool. It is hosted: an assistant connects to it over the internet, nothing to install.
From the publisher's description, Electra Index matched it to one capability: web research. That makes it a candidate for tasks such as fact-check a document or find influencers.
Facts come from the Official MCP Registry, as declared by the publisher. Capabilities are matched automatically (low confidence) and are not a test of the tool.

49 tools offered to AI assistants
search_rankwise_content· Search 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 canonical URLs.list_rankwise_sitemaps· List the sitemap URLs exposed by Rankwise so agents can enumerate indexable content.check_ai_crawler_access· Check 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_visibility· Score 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 measurement of real AIcheck_citation_readiness· Check 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_link· Get 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 run it; this tool dget_workspace· Show 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_credits· Show 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 allowance. A plan olist_sites· List 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 (or add a CLI profilepause_site· Pause 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_site· Resume 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_link· Create 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 their browser. If the ac

list_domains· List 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 brand for, and the lastadd_domain· Start 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_domain· Queue 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_domain· Stop tracking a domain and permanently delete its questions, AI answers, scores and history. This cannot be undone.list_questions· List 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_question· Track 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_question· Stop tracking a question and delete its check history. This cannot be undone.get_scorecard· Read 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_citations· For 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 counted as not cited.get_share_of_voice· Read 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_events· List 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_check· Ask 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 allowance. Send a uniquerefresh_share_of_voice· Capture 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_key, and the same onelist_opportunities· List 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 whether a brief or articlerefresh_opportunities· Recompute 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 idempotency_key; retrydismiss_opportunity· Remove one topic from the workspace's opportunity queue. It can be restored in the Rankwise app (Demand page). Nothing is deleted.list_briefs· List the workspace's content briefs, newest first: drafts waiting for approval (including ones Rankwise suggested), approved pieces being written, and finished ones.

An expert sees only the briefs assigned to them.get_brief· Read one brief in full: title, topic, intent, target questions, outline, research notes, suggested sources, status, and the draft article once it exists.create_brief· Create 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_brief· Edit 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_brief· Remove 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_brief· Approve 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 generation failed is flist_articles· List 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_article· Read 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-LD) that ships withgenerate_article· Write 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 credits (1 for short, 2publish_article· Publish 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 approved by its expertreplace_article· Replace 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. Open tracked changes are dropped when the body changes. A published article's live post is not cbulk_replace_articles· Replace up to 50 articles in one call, with the same rules as replace_article. Each article succeeds or fails on its own; the result lists both.get_autopilot· Show the workspace's content autopilot: its mode (off, draft_only, requires_approval, full_auto), weekly article quota, whether it is paused, the plan's quota ceiling, suggestions waiting for a decision, and the upcoming approval days.set_autopilot· Change the workspace's content autopilot. mode: off, draft_only (only suggests briefs, spends nothing) or requires_approval (approves up to the weekly quota of suggested briefs, which spends credits, and holds every draft for review). weeklget_planner· Read the Content Planner: one card per publishing day with its title, keyword, article type, state (planned, writing, review, published, failed), and search volume and difficulty when measured. Defaults to the window the planner page shows;move_planner_card· Move a card that is not written yet to another publishing day. If another unwritten card holds that day, the two swap. A day held by an article that is being written or is published is refused. Free.list_keywords· List the keywords in the Content Planner, one per card, with the article title, its day, state, and search volume and difficulty when measured. Filter by state. To export them as CSV, call GET /api/v1/keywords?format=csv.add_keywords· Add up to 50 keywords to the Content Planner. Each becomes a card. With a day it takes that day (an unwritten card there moves to the next free day); without one it takes the next free publishing day. Keywords already planned are skipped, sget_search_console_summary· Read the site's Google Search Console numbers for the last 28 days: total clicks and impressions, and the best articles by clicks. connected is false until Search Console is connected and has synced once.list_fixes· List the on-page fixes Rankwise proposes for a domain (structured data, head tags, robots rules and similar), each with the page pattern it targets, the dimension it improves, why, and its status. Rankwise does not change the site; the userpreview_fixes· Show the exact change each proposed fix would make to the domain's pages, as a before and after diff. A dry run: it reads the live pages and changes nothing.
How we test: we open an MCP session and ask for the tool list, as an AI assistant would. We never run a tool and never send a key. Checked every few days. Method
