What an AI SEO agent does in Semurai

An AI SEO agent is software that plans and carries out SEO work on its own, from keyword research to a page ready to publish. It researches, writes, audits and tracks rankings with live search data, and a person approves what goes live. In Semurai, that agent is a team: Semur leads, five specialists do the work.

The same agents also work beyond search: as AI marketing agents for social posts and campaigns, and as an AI content creation platform that turns one brief into articles, posts and graphics. You can also bring the same search data into the assistant you already use: the Semurai MCP server connects Claude, ChatGPT, Codex and other AI assistants.

  • Keyword research: search volume, difficulty and intent, grouped into topic clusters and content plans.
  • Content: outlines and articles in an SEO editor, with a Content Score for terms, length and headings, plus an image count.
  • Technical audits: a crawl for broken pages, titles, descriptions, duplicates, redirects and slow pages, with title, description and alt text fixes prepared for WordPress.
  • Competitor and SERP analysis: the Google results behind each keyword, up to four competitors and the keyword gap.
  • Publishing with human-in-the-loop approval: articles go to WordPress, Shoper or PrestaShop only after your click.

See it work

One goal,
one plan you approve.

A run on a demo project. You give Semur one goal: get the cold brew guide into Google’s top 10. Semur splits it into tasks for Keyres, Tenko, Hime and Rankmaru, you approve the plan, and the agents get to work. Before rank tracking and publishing to WordPress, Semur stops and asks for your OK.

  • One goal, written in plain language
  • A plan for Keyres, Tenko, Hime and Rankmaru
  • Rank tracking and publishing marked “Needs approval”
  • Semur asks for your OK before either one runs

The problem

SEO tools give you data.
Someone still has to do the work.

Most SEO software stops at a report. The research, writing, fixes and follow-up still land on your desk.

  1. Today

    You know SEO matters, but nobody owns it week to week.

    With Semurai
    SemurAgent lead

    Semur turns one goal into a plan, splits it into assignments and keeps the specialists moving.

  2. Today

    Keyword lists end up in a spreadsheet nobody opens again.

    With Semurai
    KeyresKeyword research

    Keyres groups keywords into topic clusters and a content plan, so each one becomes a page to write.

  3. Today

    Articles take days and still miss the terms that rank.

    With Semurai
    TenkoSEO content

    Tenko writes in the SEO editor with a Content Score, and you can approve the outline first.

  4. Today

    The audit is a long list of issues with no order.

    With Semurai
    HimeHealth Score

    Hime crawls your site, scores its health and lists the issues. On WordPress it prepares title, description and alt text fixes, and they apply after your click.

  5. Today

    Nobody can tell whether last month’s work moved anything.

    With Semurai
    RankmaruRank tracking

    Rankmaru checks each tracked keyword in Google daily on paid plans and shows 30 days of change.

How it works

You set the goal.
You approve the work.

Five steps, one approval card. The specialists draft inside Semurai, and anything that goes live waits for your click.

  1. 01

    Semur plans from your goal

    Tell Semur what you want, for example more organic traffic to your cold brew pages. When the plan writes full articles or uses a large share of your limit, Semur asks you to approve it first.

  2. 02

    Keyres researches keywords

    Volume, difficulty and intent, grouped into topic clusters and a content plan.

  3. 03

    Tenko writes in the SEO editor

    An outline you can approve or edit, then the article in the SEO editor, with Content Score, internal link suggestions and an FAQ from People Also Ask.

  4. 04

    Hime audits and prepares fixes

    A site crawl, a Health Score and a list of issues. On WordPress, Hime prepares fixes for titles, meta descriptions and image alt text, and they apply after your click.

  5. 05

    Rankmaru tracks positions

    The keywords go to rank tracking and get checked daily on paid plans, so the next plan starts from what moved.

Want fewer clicks? Project Autopilot (off by default) lets Semur approve a short list of allowed actions, such as an article draft or a calendar date, after a veto window: 12 hours by default, 2 to 72 hours. It never publishes and never approves a plan or a store change.

Semur’s plan in the chat for the goal “Get our cold brew guide into Google’s top 10”: five steps from keyword research to publishing the guide, rank tracking and publishing marked “Needs approval”, and the question “Approve this plan?”
Demo project: Morrowfield Coffee Co. (demo data). Semur’s five-step plan. Rank tracking and publishing need your approval, and nothing starts until you approve the plan.
Health Score of morrowfield.coffee: 86 out of 100, 64 pages checked, 29 issues, the score over five weeks and the top issues, with 4 fix proposals waiting for a decision.
Demo project: Morrowfield Coffee Co. (demo data). Hime’s Health Score: the score over time and the top issues, most of them marked “Semurai can fix this”.
Hime’s fix plan for three blog posts: two missing meta descriptions, a missing image alt text and a title that is too long, each with the current value and a proposal, and the button “Apply 4 changes”.
Demo project: Morrowfield Coffee Co. (demo data). Hime’s WordPress fix plan. You tick the changes you want, and the site changes only when you click Apply.
Rank tracker with 10 tracked cold brew keywords: searches per month, today’s Google position with its daily change, and the movement over 7 and 30 days.
Demo project: Morrowfield Coffee Co. (demo data). Rankmaru’s tracked keywords: today’s Google position and how it moved over 7 and 30 days.

FAQ

Questions about AI SEO agents.

What does an AI SEO agent do?

It researches keywords, writes and optimizes content, audits your site, compares you with competitors and tracks rankings, then prepares changes for you to approve. In Semurai, Semur plans the work and five specialists do it, each in their own tool.

Can ChatGPT do SEO?

ChatGPT can brainstorm topics and draft text, but on its own it has no live keyword data, rank tracking or Search Console, and it does not publish to your site. Connected to Semurai through MCP, it can use them: live keyword data and rankings, and on ChatGPT Business and Enterprise workspaces also drafts and publishing. An AI SEO agent like Semurai runs those steps for you inside the app.

Which sites can the AI SEO agent publish to?

WordPress (with Yoast, Rank Math, AIOSEO or SEOPress), Shoper and PrestaShop, always after your click. Store SEO proposals also work for WooCommerce through the WordPress plugin.

Does the AI SEO agent use my Search Console data?

Yes. Once you connect Google Search Console, the agents read your clicks, impressions and queries, so plans start from your own data. Keyword research and the rank tracker add live Google results on top.

How much does an AI SEO agent cost?

Semurai has a Free plan; Starter costs $39 and Growth $99 a month (net), less on yearly billing. For comparison, an Ahrefs survey of 439 SEO providers found $501-$1,000 a month the most common agency retainer.

Does an AI SEO agent publish on its own?

Some autonomous SEO agents do, so check before you connect one. Semurai’s agents never publish, schedule a publication, change your store or delete on their own. Optional project Autopilot can approve a few drafting steps after a veto window, but never publishes.
