How It Works
Perplexity is good at finding information, but it doesn't run SEO audits. Connecting it to AuditMe fills that gap — Perplexity can query AuditMe's tools and present the results alongside its search.
What you get that web search alone can't provide: actual 159-check audit scores, issues ranked by impact, deterministic fix suggestions, and side-by-side competitor comparisons with real metrics.
Setup
Perplexity supports MCP connections through its integration settings:
- 1. Open Perplexity and go to Settings
- 2. Navigate to Integrations or MCP Servers
- 3. Add a new MCP server with the following configuration:
{
"name": "AuditMe SEO",
"url": "https://www.auditme.dev/api/mcp",
"transport": "streamable-http",
"headers": {
"x-api-key": "your-api-key-here"
}
}Replace your-api-key-here with your AuditMe API key.
Without MCP: REST API
If Perplexity doesn't support MCP, you can call AuditMe's REST API directly. Perplexity can invoke these endpoints through function calling:
curl "https://www.auditme.dev/api/v1/audit?url=https://example.com"
curl -X POST https://www.auditme.dev/api/mcp \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
-H "MCP-Protocol-Version: 2026-07-28" \
-H "Mcp-Method: tools/list" \
-d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list","params":{"_meta":{"io.modelcontextprotocol/protocolVersion":"2026-07-28","io.modelcontextprotocol/clientCapabilities":{}}}}'Example Prompts
"Analyze the SEO health of https://stripe.com and compare it against https://paypal.com"
Perplexity will use seo_audit on both sites and compare_competitors for the comparison.
"What are the top 3 SEO issues on https://github.com and how do I fix them?"
Perplexity will use get_opportunities and generate_fixes for specific recommendations.
"How does AuditMe score websites? What checks does it perform?"
Perplexity will use get_audit_methodology to explain the scoring system.
