Semrush Enterprise AI Optimization Expands AI Search Tracking to Microsoft Copilot
New integration deepens market-leading LLM coverage, giving brands a more complete view of their AI search visibility.
December 1, 2025
Semrush is introducing Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server compatibility for its Trends and Standard APIs, making it easier than ever to bring Semrush insights directly into AI-powered workflows.
The Trends API offers market and competitive intelligence—from traffic and audience data to growth benchmarks—while the Standard API delivers core SEO, keyword, backlink, and domain analytics for research, monitoring, and reporting.
With MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server support, AI assistants like Claude and Cursor, and other LLM-powered tools in future can now pull Semrush data instantly — no complex coding, no custom integrations, no manual setup.
How the MCP Server Improves Data Accessibility
APIs have always been powerful, but not always accessible. Traditional setups often required weeks of developer time and multiple integrations. MCP Server changes that. Acting as a universal connector between Semrush APIs and AI agents, it cuts integration time down to minutes.
This functionality offers users:
- A one-time setup, reusable across agents. The MCP Server connects Semrush APIs (Trends or Standard) to AI agents, providing consistent, ready-to-go data access.
- Plug-and-play AI insight access. With the MCP Server, coding and technical setups are a thing of the past. Users can simply connect the MCP Server and begin asking the AI agent for insights.
- Context-aware results. Semrush Data is fed into the AI’s prompt so the model instantly understands and delivers more accurate and better informed responses.
By replacing complex, one-off builds with a single AI-ready connection, the MCP Server puts Semrush’s full range of insights within reach of more teams—from enterprise marketers to agencies automating client reports—without the steep learning curve.
How the New MCP Server Lets Users Do More With Semrush Data
The MCP Server opens ample new possibilities for leveraging Semrush data inside existing tools and workflows. Here are just a few application examples:
- SEO Opportunity Detection. Connect the MCP Server to enable AI agents to scan keyword and backlink data daily. In turn, agents can flag ranking drops and high-impact opportunities before they affect website performance.
- Traffic Change Alerts. Use the MCP Server and program an AI agent to provide instant competitor performance breakdowns and automated notifications when their traffic spikes.
- Fully Automated Monthly Reports. With Semrush data syndicating, AI agents are able compile traffic or SEO performance reports in Google Docs or Notion, complete with competitive benchmarks, ready for review and client delivery.
- Embedded Competitive Intelligence in SaaS Products. Add Semrush data directly into product dashboards, reports, or analytics features—no custom connector needed.
Of course, this is only a starting point. From on-demand answers to fully automated reporting pipelines, the MCP Server + Semrush APIs reduce complexity and help turn data into decisions.
Availability
MCP Server access is included with an API subscription—either Standard (via the SEO Business plan) or Trends (Basic or Premium)—allowing users to start exploring AI integrations right away.
