For your agent

Documentation

AEOForged is a developer platform for Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) — a REST API, MCP integration, and AI-agent tooling to research, score, audit, monitor, and improve how content is cited by AI answer engines including Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, ChatGPT, and Bing Copilot.

Integrate AEOForged by calling the REST API from code, connecting agents such as Cursor and Claude Code via MCP, or using the platform UI. New agents start at /for-agents. This hub has 10 sections: getting started, audit workflows, API reference, agent integration, prompting, workflows, monitoring, and release history. Live tool count is 30 — GET /api/v1/onboard is the catalog.
