Your rankings, in your tools
A developer-first search ranking platform. Read top-100 positions, batch-upsert keywords, receive signed webhooks, and query rankings with Claude via Model Context Protocol. Reads don't cost credits.
Complete control over projects, keywords, and rank data
Every capability in the TrackSERPs web dashboard is accessible through our JSON REST API. Base URL is https://api.trackserps.com/v1.
What you can read
Read queries never consume credits. They are bounded only by rate limits and monthly call allowances.
- Latest rankings for projects and keywords with 7d and 30d deltas
- Historical ranking time-series (up to 400 days) with net change calculations
- Monthly Google search volume, estimated CPC, and competition index
- Scan run status, duration, keyword counts, and credits charged
- Account credit balances, active limits, and API usage statistics
- Share link status and public report URLs
What you can write
Writes support the Idempotency-Key header for safe automatic retries.
- Batch-upsert up to 500 keywords per call with device & location overrides
- Soft-archive keywords without losing historical ranking data
- Trigger manual project scan runs (returns held credits)
- Dry-run check requests to calculate credit costs prior to execution
- Enable, disable, and password-protect public share links
- Register, update, test, and rotate secrets on webhook endpoints
Signed webhooks and rank alert rules
Eliminate polling. Get notified the exact second rankings shift or scans settle. Every webhook is signed with HMAC-SHA256 and retried with backoff.
Webhook Events
Subscribe to any combination of events across your account:
run.completedFires when a scan finishes with settled check countsrun.failedFires if a scan could not complete due to an upstream faultrankings.updatedDelivers an array of all keywords whose latest rank changedalert.triggeredFires when any keyword meets an alert rule conditioncredits.low / exhaustedNotifies your billing team before scans pause
Smart Rank Alert Conditions
Build automated rules that evaluate rankings immediately when scans settle:
- entered_top_n / left_top_nMonitor top 3, 10, 20, or 100 benchmark boundaries
- moved_byAlert when a keyword gains or drops more than N positions
- not_rankedTrigger when a previously ranked keyword leaves the top 100
- ranking_url_changedDetect keyword cannibalization or accidental landing page shifts
Model Context Protocol (MCP) for Claude
Connect Claude Desktop, Claude Code, or autonomous AI agents directly to your live rank data with our official @trackserps/mcp package.
Built-in MCP Tools
The server runs locally over stdio and translates natural language questions into secure REST API queries using your API key:
list_projects— Discover projects, tracked domains, and schedulesget_rankings— Inspect current positions and 7d/30d change deltasget_ranking_movement— Find top gainers and biggest losers across datesget_keyword_history— Retrieve full 400-day chronological rank curvesget_search_volume— Inspect Google monthly volumes, CPC, and trendsrun_check— Trigger an on-demand scan run from your AI assistant

Defense-in-depth API security
Every key is scoped and protected. Keep production systems and test environments cleanly separated.
Granular Scopes
Enforce principle of least privilege with read and write scopes: rankings:read, keywords:write, runs:write, shares:write, and webhooks:write.
Project Isolation
Restrict keys to specific project IDs. Unauthorized project access returns HTTP 404 rather than 403, preventing resource enumeration.
CIDR IP Allowlist
Pin API keys to your office static IPs, VPN ranges, or cloud production clusters. All other requests are denied instantly.
Signed Webhooks & SSRF Defense
Deliveries carry HMAC-SHA256 signatures with 5-minute replay thresholds. Webhook URLs undergo connect-time IP resolution against SSRF attacks.
Test Mode Keys
Generate ts_test_ keys that target synthetic demo projects. Write requests validate schemas and idempotency without touching live data or credits.
Zero-Downtime Rotation
Rotate production keys with configurable grace periods (1 hour, 24 hours, or 7 days) so deployments never drop requests.
API reads don't use credits; checks do.
Querying your project rankings, extracting historical keyword curves, checking search volumes, and reading webhook delivery logs consumes zero credits. Credits are spent strictly when Google search checks execute—either on your scheduled project runs or when you trigger an on-demand scan with POST /runs.
