    Honeyb SEO agent: a ranked list of content, technical and authority actions, each with effort, impact and the evidence behind it

    What is an SEO agent?

    An SEO agent is software that does search optimization work instead of reporting on it. It researches what buyers search and ask AI assistants, writes and publishes the content that answers them, fixes what blocks crawlers, and measures whether rankings and AI recommendations moved.

    The difference from an SEO tool is who does the work. A tool hands you a task list. An agent works the list and comes back with the result. The better agents also cover the second search layer that arrived with ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity: whether the engines name your brand when a buyer asks who to choose. For the wider landscape, see our guide to AI agents for SEO and what to automate in SEO.

    What the SEO agent does

    Five jobs, one agent, real screens.

    Every screenshot below is the Honeyb app, captured on an illustrative workspace. Nothing on this page describes a feature that is not live.

    1. Research

    It finds the questions worth answering.

    The agent starts from demand, not a keyword list you paste in. It reads your brand profile, the buyer prompts you track and the keywords your competitors already rank for, then proposes articles with the reason each one deserves a slot.

    • Ideas carry the target keyword, monthly searches and difficulty
    • Each idea shows the competitor that ranks for it and where
    • You accept or reject; accepted ideas land on the calendar

    2. Plan

    It ranks the next moves by impact.

    The Strategy agent turns your scans, site audit and traffic into a prioritised list of actions across content, technical and authority work. Every action states its evidence, so you can see why it outranks the rest.

    • Content, technical and authority actions on one list
    • Effort, impact and priority on every action
    • Deterministic site fixes you can act on straight away

    3. Write and publish

    It writes, verifies and publishes to your CMS.

    Each article is researched first: real figures with real sources, scoped to your industry. The draft is checked against those sources before it can be scheduled, then goes out with images, internal links and SEO metadata on a calendar you control.

    • WordPress, Ghost, Shopify, Webflow and Wix, or any stack via webhook
    • Hero and in-article images generated per article
    • Approve every post, or let autopilot publish accepted ideas

    4. Fix and earn

    It fixes what crawlers cannot read and targets the sources engines trust.

    The site audit checks, page by page, what AI crawlers can actually read and lists the specific fixes. The agent generates the files from your brand profile, and shows which domains the engines cite so authority work goes where it counts.

    • Ready-made robots.txt, llms.txt, Organization JSON-LD and sitemap.xml
    • Per-bot access checks for crawlers such as GPTBot and ClaudeBot
    • Cited domains with share, trend, engine and source type

    5. Measure

    It proves whether the work moved anything.

    Every day the agent runs your buyer prompts on the engines you choose, up to all 8: ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Grok, DeepSeek, Google AI Mode and Google AI Overviews. It records whether you were named, in what position, with what sentiment, and which pages were cited. Connect Google Search Console and Analytics and your search queries and AI-referred visits sit next to it.

    • Up to 8 AI engines, re-run daily
    • Search Console queries and AI-referred sessions beside your visibility
    • A weekly report by email, and per-post tracking of what AI cites

    How it works

    From a URL to published work in five steps.

    1. Step 1

      Enter your website

      The agent builds a brand profile: industry, audience, products, topics and competitors. Correct anything it got wrong; everything downstream reads from it.

    2. Step 2

      It picks the prompts and runs the first scan

      Buyer prompts are generated from the profile, and you can add your own. The first scan shows where engines name you, and who they name instead.

    3. Step 3

      You approve the plan

      Ranked actions and article ideas arrive with their evidence. You accept what fits. That is the human step, and it takes minutes, not a meeting.

    4. Step 4

      The agent does the work

      Articles are researched, written, verified and published to your CMS on schedule. Site fixes come as ready-to-paste files.

    5. Step 5

      It measures and goes again

      Daily scans show whether the work moved your visibility. Next week's plan starts from what worked.
