What can an AI agent do with SEMrush?

A SEMrush AI agent can pull domain overviews, research keywords, audit backlinks, track ranking positions, and run competitor analyses - all automatically on a schedule or on demand. It surfaces the insights that matter and delivers them wherever you work, whether that's Slack, email, or a shared doc. The one write action (creating a project) requires your approval.

Do I need a SEMrush subscription to connect?

Yes. You connect your own SEMrush account via API key. The agent uses your existing plan's API credits, so usage counts against your SEMrush quota just like manual queries would.

Can my AI agent track competitors automatically?

Yes. You can set up a scheduled task that runs competitor analysis on a daily or weekly cadence, comparing organic keyword overlap, traffic estimates, and new top-ranking pages - then posts a summary wherever you want it.

Is my SEMrush data stored?

SEMrush data is fetched and processed during task execution but not permanently stored. Only the task outputs - reports, summaries, alerts - are saved to your run history.

What needs your approval

SEMrush never changes anything without you.

Anything that creates, edits or deletes in SEMrush waits for your approval. Approve a recurring task once and it runs unattended after that.
