What you can use now, and where the product is heading.
Who is OpenLocalSEO for?
Local SEO operators working on their own business websites, client projects, or rank-and-rent portfolios. Each website keeps its market, niche, publication stage, and notes together.
What can I use today?
Keyword research, saved page plans, website inventory, rank-and-rent portfolio views, research notes, tasks, quick search, and backup exports. Signed-in workspaces save to the database and follow your account across browsers.
Does it fetch keywords or track rankings yet?
Keyword research and Google search-result checks are available with your own DataForSEO account. Rank tracking, audits, backlinks, Search Console, and AI tools are planned. Public previews use example data.
What does bring your own keys mean?
Connect your own DataForSEO API credentials in Settings. Each workspace uses its own encrypted connection and provider balance. Research and search-result checks run only when you request them.
Can I manage rank-and-rent websites?
Yes. Record a website's city, niche, publication stage, and call-forwarding details. The portfolio view includes homepage previews. Recorded numbers do not change your call provider's routing, and live call analytics are planned.
Can I connect Claude or Codex?
An MCP connection and local SEO agent workflows are part of the product direction. They are not available yet. You can already save the research and tasks you create with your assistant in the workspace.
