AgencyAnalytics Alternative for Scaling SEO Ops
CitationBench is the AgencyAnalytics alternative built for agencies running end-to-end SEO ops across 10–100 client brands. Move beyond reporting into research, content, publishing, link-building, and AI citation tracking.
Reporting Tools Do Not Run SEO Ops
AgencyAnalytics shows you what happened. It does not help you do the work across every client.
Stuck in the Dashboard Loop
AgencyAnalytics surfaces rank data but leaves your team switching between Ahrefs, Surfer, Apollo, and Instantly to act on it.
Client Onboarding Takes Days
Building a keyword universe, ICP profiles, and content plan for a new client brand requires manual work across multiple tools with no shared workflow.
AI Search Is a Blind Spot
AgencyAnalytics does not track whether your clients appear in ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity — a gap clients are now asking about directly.
The fix
One Platform. Every SEO Op Covered.
CitationBench replaces AgencyAnalytics and the stack around it with one unified platform: keyword research, content production, multi-platform publishing, auto-indexing, link-building campaigns, rank tracking, and AI citation monitoring across all client workspaces.
Everything AgencyAnalytics Does Not Do
Five capabilities your team needs to run full-stack SEO ops across every client brand without adding headcount or tools.
Agency Architecture
All Client Workspaces in One Account
A single API key manages every client brand. All research, content, campaigns, and rank data are isolated per client via X-Workspace-Id and visible in a unified agency view.
- Per-client workspace isolation
- Bulk actions across brands
- White-label ready
Daily Monitoring
Daily Rank Tracking Across All Clients
Track keyword positions daily across every client workspace with full history. Pull bulk rank data across all brands in one call — no manual exports, no switching dashboards.
- Daily per-keyword history
- Bulk cross-client rank pulls
- REST and dashboard access
GEO Monitoring
Track AI Citations Alongside Rank Data
Monitor whether client brands are cited in ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity for target queries. Returns share-of-voice and citation trajectory — the data AgencyAnalytics cannot provide.
- ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity
- Share-of-voice history
- Daily query scheduling
Link Building
One Keyword to 50 Outreach Drafts
One POST /v1/link-building/serp-outreach call scrapes the SERP, discovers contacts via Apollo, and generates 50 personalized email drafts via Instantly. Review and bulk-approve before any email sends.
- SERP to email in one call
- Bulk draft approval gate
- Campaign pause and resume
Compliance Controls
Human Approval Gates on Every Agent
Any agentic workflow can pause at a configurable step and emit awaiting_approval. Reviewers approve or reject via the dashboard or POST /v1/agent/invocations/{id}/approve. Every decision is logged.
- Pause at any workflow step
- Approve via dashboard or API
- Full audit log
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.
