# Jack's SEO MCP

> Jack's SEO MCP turns Claude, Cursor, or any AI agent into an SEO agent that ranks. It connects your agent to real keyword and SERP data, a stored profile of your business, and deterministic quality gates, so the content it writes is grounded and publish-ready instead of generic AI slop. Built for solo founders, indie hackers, and small teams. From $9/mo, no card to start.

## What We Do

Most AI writing tools hand you a blank prompt and a confident model, and the result is generic content that reads like every other AI article and does not rank. Jack's SEO MCP fixes that by grounding the agent in three things before it writes a word: a profile of your business (what you do, who for, your vocabulary and proof), real search demand pulled from live keyword and SERP data, and a set of quality gates the draft has to pass before it is considered done.

It runs as an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server, so it plugs directly into the AI agent you already use — Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client. The workflow is: profile the business once, research a keyword against real data, write the article against a structured brief, then run the gates and fix whatever blocks until it passes. The server never calls an LLM itself; your agent does the writing, and the server supplies the profile, the real-search data, the brief, and the deterministic checks.

Unlike an SEO dashboard that measures what already happened, Jack's SEO MCP writes what goes live next. There is no new platform to learn and no seats to buy — it runs in the editor you already work in.

### Who uses it

- Solo founders who need content that ranks but cannot afford an agency or a full SEO SaaS stack
- Indie hackers who already use Claude or Cursor and want to add SEO to their workflow
- Small teams publishing their own blog and marketing content
- Technical founders and developers who prefer tools that run in their editor over another dashboard
- Anyone who already pays for Ahrefs and wants to plug their own keys in for richer data

### Key concepts explained

**MCP (Model Context Protocol)** is an open standard that lets AI agents like Claude connect to external tools and data through one clean interface. An MCP server exposes tools (research, profiles, quality gates) that the agent can call directly.

**SEO MCP server** is an MCP server built specifically for SEO writing. It gives an AI agent real keyword data, a stored business profile, and quality gates, so the agent writes content grounded in demand and your business rather than guessing.

**Quality gates** are deterministic checks a draft must pass before it ships — covering structure, readability, links, and answer-engine optimisation. The agent runs the gates, sees what blocks, and fixes it, so nothing generic or thin gets published.

**Business profile** is a stored record of what the business does, who it serves, its insider vocabulary, competitors, real customer problems, and proof. Every article is written from it, which is what keeps output specific instead of generic.

**AEO (answer engine optimization)** is optimising content so AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews quote it as the answer, not just rank it in a list.

**Managed data vs BYOK** — managed plans include keyword and SERP lookups with no extra provider account needed; the bring-your-own-keys plan lets you plug in your own Ahrefs and Claude keys for richer data and unlimited lookups.
