SEO Just Moved from Dashboards to Conversations

How I use Semrush to research, analyze, and execute faster.

Want an all-in-one SEO & GEO suite of tools? Stop paying for multiple subscriptions and get Semrush today. I’ve been using it for 10+ years, and it continues to improve for GEO.

Hey, Savvy Nation!

SEO has shifted yet again.

Most SEO tools still make you hunt for answers. Click this, filter that, export reports. It works, but it’s slow and scattered.

But did you know that prompt-based SEO insights can now be more accessible, faster, and structured? That is, if you’re on Semrush One.

Instead of digging through dashboards and dozens of reports, you can simply ask a question and get data back instantly.

Here’s how my new flow works.

How I Use Semrush MCP in Claude with Semrush One

1. Enter a Prompt

With just a prompt, you trigger a data query. All you need to do is:

  • Set up the Semrush MCP by adding it to an AI connector like Claude: There’s no complex configuration, exporting, or toggling 10 menus.

  • Ask a real SEO question using natural language: Describe exactly what you want. The prompt engine handles the rest and pulls the right data.

This cuts down setup time dramatically and gets you to answers fast. 

2. Semrush Queries Live Datasets

Prompt queries reach real, fresh Semrush data instead of stale snapshots.
That includes:

  • Keywords: Fresh volume and difficulty metrics.

  • Rankings: Daily SERP performance across platforms.

  • Pages: On-page metrics and content signals.

  • Competitors: Visibility gaps and comparative trends.

This is native data ready for strategy work. 

3. Get Structured Outputs Back Fast

Instead of screenshots or unstructured dumps, you get:

  • Clean tables that surface exactly the fields you asked for.

  • Core metrics you can plug into docs or dashboards.

  • Clear comparisons that highlight opportunities and gaps.

These are outputs you can act on immediately.

4. Use the Output Where Decisions Happen

The real win?

You can take insights and use them immediately in places that matter:

  • Strategy docs for alignment and key results.

  • Content planning for topic ideation and prioritization.

  • Competitive analysis to shape go-to-market plays.

  • Client proposals or reports with data that’s current and relevant.

No exporting or rebuilding needed. Drop results into your workflow, and make decisions fast.

The Future of SEO Is Conversational

What changed isn’t just a workflow. It’s where the value lives.

SEO data is moving from dashboards → to conversations.

Semrush One unifies visibility across traditional search and AI discovery, so you can track how you show up not just in Google but across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and other AI platforms. 

If you’re already on Semrush One, this transforms how fast you move.

If you’re not, MCP just became far more accessible than it was before. And this is where SEO workflows are heading.

If you want faster research, live competitive data, and AI-driven visibility insights all in one place, it’s time to upgrade your stack.

All the best,

Connor
