Founder's Verdict

"A useful set of SEO prompts and workflows if you already live in Claude Code. Its AI-visibility numbers are estimates from public signals, not real engine queries, and the plugin shows a promo banner and sends telemetry unless you switch them off."

Akii: SEO & AI Search Optimizer

Akii’s plugin turns Claude Code into an SEO assistant. It covers classic SEO plus AEO (answer-engine optimization) and GEO (generative-engine optimization, meaning how your pages show up in ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot and Google AI Overviews). Every skill runs on the model of your Claude Code session, so there’s no separate Akii account or API key.

What’s included

The plugin bundles 12 skills, 5 agents and 3 slash commands:

  • Audit: a full SEO, AEO and GEO audit (Core Web Vitals, crawlability, JavaScript rendering, HTTPS), broken links and redirect chains, and side-by-side scorecards against competitors.
  • Optimize: single-page passes on titles, meta tags, headings and links, plus GEO rewrites based on the Princeton/IIT Delhi GEO paper. It also generates JSON-LD schema and audits internal links.
  • Content: content strategy, writer briefs and keyword clustering, plus /create-topic, /create-content and /check-file.
  • AI search: an AI-visibility map per engine and llms.txt generation.
  • Localization: translation with per-locale keyword research and hreflang.

Skills trigger from plain requests such as “audit my site” or “generate Article schema for this file”. The agents only run when you ask for deep, bulk or autonomous work.

What to know before installing

  • AI visibility is estimated. The README says the ai-visibility skill builds proxy estimates from public web signals and “does not directly query the named engines”. If you’ve connected the Ahrefs Brand Radar MCP, it uses Ahrefs’ observations instead.
  • Optional data sources. If you’ve connected Ahrefs, Apify or a PageSpeed Insights API key (AKII_PSI_KEY), skills use them for real backlink, search and Core Web Vitals data. Those services have their own pricing.
  • A SessionEnd hook runs after every session. It prints a banner linking to akii.com, checks GitHub for new releases, and once a day POSTs a small payload to akii.com: plugin version, a hashed machine ID, OS and timestamp. Set AKII_PLUGIN_DISABLE_CTA=1 to turn the whole hook off, or AKII_PLUGIN_DISABLE_TELEMETRY=1 (or DO_NOT_TRACK=1) to stop only the telemetry. We read the hook script and it matches what the README describes.
  • macOS and Linux. The hook is a POSIX bash script, and Windows is untested. The README says it should work under WSL.
  • Small, young project. The repo was created in May 2026, and almost all commits come from Akii itself. Releases are regular: v3.0.1 shipped on 15 Oct 2026. Stars and dates checked 11 Nov 2026.

Get started

Inside Claude Code, run these as two separate commands:

/plugin marketplace add https://github.com/akii-technologies-ltd/akii-seo-ai-search-optimizer
/plugin install akii-seo-ai-search-optimizer@akii

Then ask something like “Audit the SEO of my website” or “Generate llms.txt for this site”. Third-party marketplaces don’t auto-update by default. Turn auto-update on under /plugin → Marketplaces, or run /plugin marketplace update akii for each release.
