Track Google rank, AI Overviews and AI answers in one call.

For each keyword, the monitor returns your Google rank, whether Google's AI Overview cites your site and whether AI assistants mention your brand. Pass the previous result back in and you get the changes.

What you get back

  • Google organic rank per keyword
  • AI Overview citation: cited or not
  • AI assistant mentions of your brand
  • Diff against the previous snapshot, so it can run on a schedule

Call it over HTTP

No account and no API key. The first response is 402 Payment Required with the price; an x402-capable client pays in USDC on Base and retries. You're only charged when the call succeeds.

curl -i -X POST https://api.exepal.com/v1/serp-ai-monitor \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{"domain":"notion.com","keywords":["note taking app","team wiki"],"brand":"Notion","country":"us"}'
# → 402 Payment Required (price, network: base, pay-to address)
# An x402 client pays in USDC and retries → 200 with the JSON answer

Use it from Claude, Cursor or any MCP client

Questions

How often should I run it?
Weekly is typical. Results are cached for six hours, so running it more often than that returns the same data.
How do I see what changed?
Send the previous response as previousSnapshot and each keyword comes back with its change.
