What is the PocketSEO MCP server?

It is a free Model Context Protocol server that lets AI clients such as Claude Code and Codex audit your live URL — checking on-page SEO and structured data — then fix the issues using PocketSEO's SEO guides and checklists.

Does it actually read my website?

Yes. The audit_page and check_schema tools fetch the live URL you give them server-side and return real facts about that page — title and meta length, heading structure, image alt coverage, canonical, Open Graph, and every JSON-LD schema block. It does not run JavaScript, so it also flags content that only renders client-side.

Does it cost anything or need an API key?

No. The server is free and requires no sign-up or API key. Point your MCP client at https://pocketseo.ai/mcp and it works immediately.

Which AI clients can connect?

Any client that supports the Model Context Protocol over HTTP, including Claude Code, Claude for Work, and Codex.

Is this an automatic SEO tool?

Yes. The PocketSEO MCP is an automatic SEO tool: once connected, your AI runs the audit and applies the fixes automatically. It fetches your live URL, scores on-page SEO and structured data, and returns ranked findings linked to the guide that fixes each one — no manual checklist required.

Can I do my own SEO with this?

Yes — that is the point. Instead of hiring an agency, you connect the free PocketSEO MCP and your AI does your SEO for you: it audits the page, explains each issue, and applies the fix using PocketSEO guides. You stay in control and see every finding, so you learn as you go.

Is there a free automatic SEO report?

Yes. The PocketSEO MCP produces a free automatic SEO report on any live URL — title and meta length, headings, thin content, image alt, canonical, Open Graph, schema, robots, sitemap, and technical checks — with no signup and no API key. Point your MCP client at https://pocketseo.ai/mcp and ask it to audit your page.

What is automatic SEO?

Automatic SEO is when AI does your SEO for you — it fetches your live page, audits on-page SEO and structured data, and applies the fixes, instead of you checking each item by hand. The PocketSEO MCP is exactly that: a free auto SEO AI tool that lets any AI client run the audit and the fixes. No agency, no signup, no API key — you keep control and see every finding.

How it works

SEO expertise, inside your AI's context

Add the server

Paste one command (or a few lines of config) into your AI client. No sign-up, no API key.

Point it at a URL

Your AI fetches your live page with audit_page / check_schema — real facts about your site, not generic advice.

It fixes your site

Findings come ranked and linked to the matching PocketSEO guide, so your AI applies the fix and cites the source.

17 tools + resources
