# Introduction

The **SERPtag MCP Server** connects AI assistants like **Cursor, Claude Desktop, VS Code, and Windsurf** directly to your live SERPtag SEO data.

Instead of switching between your AI assistant and the SERPtag dashboard, you can ask questions in plain English and receive answers powered by your own projects, keyword rankings, ranking history, and account information.

Whether you're reviewing keyword performance, investigating ranking changes, or checking account usage, SERPtag MCP gives your AI assistant secure, real-time access to your SEO data.

## What is the Model Context Protocol (MCP)?

The **Model Context Protocol (MCP)** is an open standard that allows AI assistants to securely connect to external tools and live data sources.

With SERPtag MCP, your AI assistant can communicate directly with your SERPtag account. Instead of uploading spreadsheets or copying reports, the assistant retrieves live information whenever you ask a question.

SERPtag hosts and manages the MCP server for you, so there is nothing to install or maintain on your own server.
