SEO Skill vs GSC Wizard

GSC Wizard is a paid Search Console reporting app with a hosted MCP server that does the number crunching on its own servers and hands your AI the results. SEO Skill gives your agent your own Search Console, Google Analytics and keyword data for free, with nothing to install.

Get started free

Run it in a terminal, then sign in with Google.

Or run it on your machine

Installs the CLI, signs you in and adds the skill to your agents. Site crawls and Bing data run this way, on your own machine. A crawl fetches many pages, and Bing blocks our hosted server.

Connect

SEO Skill: Add https://seoskill.dev/mcp to your agent and sign in with Google. Read-only access, no Google Cloud project, no API key.

GSC Wizard: Create a GSC Wizard account, which connects to Google through OAuth. Then connect the MCP with OAuth 2.1 sign-in (ChatGPT, Claude web, app and Desktop connectors) or an API key sent as a bearer header (Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf). The MCP reads the properties already connected to the GSC Wizard account.

Tools

SEO Skill: 7 hosted tools: seo_sites, seo_report, seo_page, seo_compare, seo_index, seo_research and seo_data. The CLI adds the site crawl, internal links and Bing.

GSC Wizard: 131 tools, per its MCP docs, 32 of them write tools. A smaller core set has 25 tools.

Data sources

SEO Skill: Google Search Console, Google Analytics, URL Inspection, Clicky, and DataForSEO or Ahrefs with your own key. Bing Webmaster Tools in the CLI. Free Domain Rating by Ahrefs on research rows.

Free

SEO Skill: Every on-demand tool, with no usage cap and no time limit.

GSC Wizard: No free plan. Every new account gets a 7-day free trial with full MCP access. API keys are free to create, but MCP tools stop answering when a trial ends without a subscription.

Paid plans

SEO Skill: The weekly site audit is $50 a month per site: weekly crawl, daily Google index checks, stored history, drop and return alerts, and a Monday email and webhook. Cancel any time.

GSC Wizard: Starter €17 a month (10 API properties plus 5 full storage properties, owner plus 1 seat). Pro €39 a month (50 plus 25, owner plus 3 seats). Business €249 a month (500 plus 150, owner plus 10 seats). Custom plans from €349 a month. Extra seats €9 a month each. Prices exclude VAT. The pricing page also offers USD, GBP and INR display.

Can it change anything

SEO Skill: Read-only Google sign-in. Your agent can start the paid audit for a site, which returns a Stripe Checkout link for you to open.

GSC Wizard: Its docs list 32 write tools that need a read and write API key or OAuth consent with changes allowed, including submitting sitemaps to Search Console, creating URL-prefix properties in Search Console, submitting URLs to IndexNow, bulk URL inspection, and managing tags, content groups, topic clusters, annotations, shared reports and migration redirects. Every mutation is audit-logged. A read-only key or connection refuses all write tools. Its product page describes the MCP as hosted and read-only.

Your data

SEO Skill: Search Console and analytics rows are fetched on each request and never stored, except what the paid weekly audit keeps for its sites. Your linked accounts and saved keys are kept, encrypted.

GSC Wizard: Yes. Full storage properties are stored in its ClickHouse data warehouse and collected daily. API properties are read live from Google's API. Its pricing FAQ says it never stores your GSC credentials and accesses data through Google's OAuth.

History

SEO Skill: Google's 16 months, read live. With the weekly audit, crawl and index history for the sites you audit.

GSC Wizard: 16 months for API properties (Google's API limit). Up to 10 years for full storage properties: it backfills what Google has (typically 16 months) and keeps collecting daily, and can import history from BigQuery bulk export or other SEO tools.

Licence

SEO Skill: Hosted service, with the CLI and local MCP server open source (Apache 2.0)

GSC Wizard: Hosted service
