SEO / AI Overview Checker

A Laravel dashboard that shows where a site stands in classic Google search and in AI answers: Google rankings, Google AI Overview citations, and whether ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity mention or cite the site. It finds technical problems, ranks them by impact and says how to fix each one. It runs on your own server (or locally with Docker), keeps the history in a database and is protected by Google sign-in.

The interface is available in English and Turkish. It follows the browser language (Turkish browsers get Turkish, all others English), and each user can change it later under Settings.

Features

• Google rankings — fetches the top ~20 organic results for each tracked keyword (direct scraping or the DataForSEO API) and records your position on every check.
• Google AI Overview — detects the AI Overview box, lists the cited domains and tells you whether your site is one of them. A stability view shows, over the last 10 checks, how often an AI Overview appears, how persistently your site stays cited and how volatile the result is.
• AI assistant visibility — asks ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity a real customer question and records who is mentioned, who is cited and which competitors are recommended. Prompt Explorer lets admins ask any question across all four at once, with a wizard that suggests brand-free question variations from your keywords. A Share of Model matrix shows how often each assistant mentions your site versus your SERP competitors.
• Site health — AI bots in robots.txt, sitemap, llms.txt, HTTPS redirect, security headers, canonical host and WHOIS/domain age, with a health score and a prioritized issue list. Changes between two checks are highlighted. An llms.txt generator builds a draft from your sitemap pages, ready to review and upload, and an existing llms.txt is checked for format problems (HTML instead of text, missing title/summary/links).
• Speed and page quality — Lighthouse scores via the PageSpeed Insights API (no Chrome needed on the server), real-user CrUX data, and on-page SEO per page: title/meta, headings, images, structured data, hreflang.
• Your own data — connect Google Search Console, GA4 and Bing Webmaster Tools per user (OAuth) to see clicks, visitors and backlinks next to the checks.
• IndexNow — generates and verifies the key file and submits new or changed URLs (or the whole sitemap) to IndexNow search engines.
• Sharing and reports — read-only report links that need no login, and a weekly SEO summary email.
• MCP server — connect Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or Claude Code with OAuth and your Google account; the assistant sees only your domains and cannot delete anything. See MCP server.
• Access control — invite-only Google sign-in, admin approval of new users, members see only their own domains.

Important limitations and legal notice

• By default rankings use direct HTTP scraping; set DATAFORSEO_LOGIN/DATAFORSEO_PASSWORD to use the DataForSEO API instead for more reliable results. With SERP_PROVIDER=fallback the app scrapes first and only sends a query to DataForSEO when Google blocks it, so you pay only for blocked queries (mobile SERP is skipped in this mode). With scraping, Google frequently blocks automated requests with a CAPTCHA/"unusual traffic" page or a redirect requiring JavaScript verification (/httpservice/retry/enablejs). The app detects these cases and reports them as "blocked" — check this first if you're not getting results.
• AI Overview is usually rendered client-side (via JavaScript) and can vary by account/location/device. This tool only inspects the static HTML response, so detection is best-effort; an AI Overview that's actually visible to a real user may not be captured here.
• Google's SERP HTML structure changes frequently; the parsing logic relies on general heuristic rules and may need updating over time (see ai_overview_markers and ai_overview_selectors in config/seo.php).
• Only use this tool to audit your own sites, or sites you have explicit permission for, at a reasonable request rate (REQUEST_DELAY_MS). Respect Google's terms of service and robots.txt rules; do not configure it for heavy or mass scraping.
• The PageSpeed Insights API has a very low quota when used without an API key and you can quickly hit "Quota exceeded"; getting a PSI_API_KEY is recommended for real usage (see below).

Quick start (Docker)

docker network create npm_proxy   # one-time, see docs/docker.md
cp .env.docker.example .env

docker compose build
docker compose up -d

docker compose exec app php artisan migrate

The dashboard runs at http://localhost:8080 by default. Continue with Web dashboard to set up Google login.
