The AI-visibility MCP server

Most AI-visibility tools hand you a dashboard. The Cituna MCP server hands your data to your assistant. Connect it once and Claude can read how the AI engines cite your brand, tell you exactly which buyer prompts you are losing, work your fix queue, and pull your live Google Search Console numbers, without you leaving the chat or exporting a thing.

What it does

MCP, the Model Context Protocol, is an open standard for connecting AI assistants to live data and tools. Our server implements it, so any MCP client can query your workspace directly. Point it at Claude and you can ask about the six engines we track, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Grok and Google AI Overviews (we do not track Microsoft Copilot), with the tracking grid refreshed daily across all six.

What that looks like in practice:

• Your visibility, on demand. “What changed in my AI visibility this week, and which engines dropped us?”
• The receipts. “What did Perplexity actually answer for ‘best CRM for small business’, and who did it cite instead of us?”
• The fix queue. “List the open gaps for acme.com and walk me through the schema one.”
• Search Console, joined up. “How did acme.com do in Search over the last 28 days, broken down by country then device?”

The tools Claude gets

Twelve tools ship today. Ten are read-only and work from $39 (Starter and the free trial); two are write actions that change your workspace and need Pro or higher.

Connect it to Claude

The server runs locally through npx, there is nothing to deploy. First, generate a personal token in the app under Integrations → Claude / MCP access (it is shown once). Then add the server to your client and paste the token in place of YOUR_TOKEN.

Claude Code (terminal):

claude mcp add cituna --scope user \
  --env CITUNA_API_KEY=YOUR_TOKEN \
  -- npx -y cituna-mcp

Claude Desktop: merge this into claude_desktop_config.json, then restart:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cituna": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "cituna-mcp"],
      "env": { "CITUNA_API_KEY": "YOUR_TOKEN" }
    }
  }
}

In Claude Code, run /mcp to confirm the connection; in Claude Desktop, the server appears after a restart. Then ask Claude to review your AI-visibility scans, work your fix queue, or pull your Search Console data. The token acts on your behalf and can be revoked in the app at any time.

Which plan you need

The MCP server is included on every paid plan and the free trial, there is no separate add-on. On Starter ($39) and the 7-day free trial, the ten read tools let Claude query your tracking grid, audits, gaps and Search Console data. Pro ($99) adds the two write tools, so Claude can start a fresh scan and update your fix queue for you; Max ($299) raises the scan, data and MCP allowances; and a custom Enterprise plan lifts them further with invoiced billing and priority onboarding.
