Connect ContentMonk to Claude (and other MCP-compatible AI clients) and run your AI-search and content workflow in a conversation - check your AI-answer visibility, do keyword research and rank tracking, produce and publish content, and manage your knowledge base, all from Claude.
What it is
The ContentMonk connector is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives Claude secure, permissioned access to your ContentMonk workspace. Once connected, you can ask Claude to:
Track and improve your visibility in AI answers (AEO/GEO) and see where competitors beat you.
Run keyword research and manage rank tracking.
Create content end to end - research, brief, article - and publish it to a connected CMS.
Repurpose content into social posts.
Read and update your knowledge base, comments, and workspace settings.
Claude calls ContentMonk on your behalf; it only sees the data and actions your workspace role allows.
Requirements
A ContentMonk account with a workspace (any plan). Plan quotas apply (content generation, keyword research, etc.).
Your role determines what the connector can do:
Viewer - read only.
Editor - read, plus create and edit content.
Admin - the above, plus workspace settings.
Extra setup for some tools:
Publishing needs a connected CMS (WordPress or Webflow).
AEO / AI-visibility data needs tracked prompts set up in your workspace.
Search Console suggestions need a connected Google Search Console.
How to connect
From the Claude Connectors Directory (recommended): open Claude's connector directory, find ContentMonk, and click Connect.
Using the connector URL (fallback): add a custom connector in Claude with the server URL
https://api.contentmonk.io/api/mcp.You'll be sent to ContentMonk's secure sign-in (OAuth, powered by WorkOS). Log in and, on the consent screen at
app.contentmonk.io/mcp/oauth/login, click Connect to authorize access to your workspace.That's it - Claude can now use ContentMonk tools. You can revoke access anytime from your ContentMonk workspace settings.
Example prompts
"Show my AI visibility for the last 30 days and where competitors beat me."
"Write a brief on 'answer engine optimization', then generate the article and publish it to WordPress."
"Research keywords for 'ai seo tools' and add the top 5 to my rank tracker."
What you can do (capabilities)
AI visibility / AEO - overall and per-model visibility (ChatGPT, Claude, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity), cited sources, tracked prompts, and competitor tracking.
Keyword research & rank tracker - research keywords, add them to ideas, track rankings, and see SERP/competitor positions.
Content production - create a brief, generate the article, edit it, and publish or schedule to a connected CMS (WordPress/Webflow).
Social repurposing - turn an article into social posts (e.g. LinkedIn, Reddit).
Knowledge base - add and search documents that ground your content.
Comments - add and read comments on content editorials.
Settings & usage - read workspace settings and check your plan usage/quota.
Troubleshooting
Connection fails / nothing happens after "Connect": make sure you completed the consent screen (clicked Connect after signing in). Retry from the directory or the connector URL.
You're asked to sign in again / 401 errors: your session expired or access was revoked - reconnect and re-authorize.
"Quota exceeded" (QUOTA_EXCEEDED): you've hit a plan limit (e.g. content generation or keyword research). Upgrade your plan or wait for the quota to reset.
A brief or article seems to "hang": long jobs run in the background. Ask Claude to check the status in a moment rather than re-running the request.
Too many requests / rate limited: the connector allows up to 240 requests per minute. Slow down and retry.
Publishing / unpublishing: these actions write to your live CMS. Claude will ask you to confirm before performing them - review the target and slug before you approve.
