SEO Agency Tools for Scaling Your Operations
CitationBench gives agencies one platform to run research, content production, link building, and rank tracking across every client — without growing your team.
Too Many Tools. Too Little Margin.
Fragmented agency stacks slow onboarding, drain margins, and leave client reporting full of gaps.
Onboarding Eats Your Hours
Spinning up a new client across Ahrefs, Surfer, Apollo, and AgencyAnalytics takes days of setup, not minutes.
No AI Search Visibility
Clients ask if they appear in ChatGPT or Perplexity and your current tools have no answer.
Outreach Stalls at Scale
Turning keyword research into personalized link-building emails requires five tools and a full-time specialist.
The fix
One Platform. Every SEO Workflow Your Agency Needs.
CitationBench connects research, content production, publishing, indexing, link building, and rank tracking into agentic workflows — all scoped per client workspace, all accessible from one API key.
Everything Your Agency Needs to Run at Scale
Five integrated capabilities cover the full agency workflow from keyword discovery through link acquisition and daily rank monitoring across all client accounts.
Agency Architecture
One Account for All Client Workspaces
Manage every client brand under one master API key. All keywords, content, campaigns, and settings are isolated per client via the X-Workspace-Id header — white-label-ready by design.
- Per-client workspace isolation
- Single master API key
- Bulk actions across accounts
Agentic Workflows
Bootstrap a New Client in 20 Minutes
Run the brand-bootstrap agent via POST /v1/agent/invoke to take any new client from zero to a full SEO presence — ICP profiles, keyword universe, and content plan — in 20 minutes.
- Brand bootstrap agent
- SSE event streaming
- Approval-gated pauses
Daily Monitoring
Rank Tracking Across Every Client Account
Pull daily rankings for every client workspace in a single request. Results are scoped per client, fully historical, and available via REST, MCP tool, or the dashboard for unified reporting.
- Daily rank history
- Per-workspace scoping
- Bulk rank pulls
Link Building
Turn One Keyword Into 50 Outreach Drafts
One POST /v1/link-building/serp-outreach call fetches the SERP, finds contacts via Apollo, and returns 50 personalized email drafts ready to bulk-approve before sending via Instantly.
- Apollo contact discovery
- Instantly email integration
- Bulk draft approval
Brand Consistency
Enforce Client Brand Voice at Scale
Configure brand voice rules, competitor removal, and CTA logic once per client workspace via produce.refine.*. Every blog post and landing page produced is automatically transformed to spec.
- Reusable refiner templates
- Bulk apply across content
- CTA and FAQ injection
How it works
From sign-up to first call in five minutes.
Sign up and get your key
An `sk_test_*` key lands in your dashboard instantly. No demo gate — start calling real endpoints with shape-complete responses.
Add the MCP server or hit REST
`claude mcp add citationbench https://mcp.citationbench.com/mcp` from Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP client. Or `curl` against `api.citationbench.com/v1/*` directly.
Run a tool or invoke an agent
Every tool returns shape-complete demo data without auth, so your agent works before the user signs up. Tools across research, production, indexing, link-building, and agents.
Scope to a workspace and ship
Add `X-Workspace-Id: ws_***` to scope per client. Switch to a live `sk_live_*` key when you're ready. Same API surface, same SDK.
Why CitationBench
Built for production, agency-scale, and AI-agent-first.
~35 tools, one MCP server
Hosted at mcp.citationbench.com/mcp. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop, Windsurf, and ChatGPT Apps. No self-hosting required.
Durable jobs, not fire-and-forget
Every long-running call runs on Cyclonic workers — survives restarts, cancellable, resumable, streams via SSE. Production-safe by default.
Multi-workspace from day one
One master API key, N client workspaces. Switch with a single `X-Workspace-Id` header. Per-client data isolation, bulk ops across all of them.
Demo mode out of the box
Every endpoint responds in shape-complete demo mode without auth, so you can build the agent before the user signs up.
