An agentic SEO platform is a junior SEO who never sleeps, and it still needs a manager who checks before anything ships.

**TL;DR**

-   The best agentic SEO platform depends on which SEO job you want an agent to run: Contengi for content research, writing, refreshes, and AI visibility, Search Atlas for technical and on-page fixes, Alli AI for bulk changes across large sites.
-   Contengi reads your Search Console data, plans updates, edits live posts section by section, and tracks mentions across five AI engines, from $50 a month plus your own Anthropic key.
-   Search Atlas's OTTO agent runs technical fixes, on-page changes, and content, from $99 a month billed monthly for one site.
-   Letaido, Ahrefs' agent workspace, builds SEO reports and automations on Ahrefs data from $99 a month, with Ahrefs billed separately.
-   Keep a human on every change that goes live. Google's spam policies target attempts to manipulate rankings or generative AI answers, however the content was made.

An agentic SEO platform is a junior SEO who never sleeps and never gets bored of Search Console. Like any junior, it does great work with clear goals and a manager who checks before anything ships.

This list covers five agentic SEO platforms, in no specific order after the first. We built Contengi, so it's first, and each of the others runs a part of SEO we don't touch. If the term is new, our explainer on [what agentic SEO is](https://contengi.com/blog/agentic-seo) walks through a real run.

## What makes an SEO platform agentic?

An SEO platform is agentic when an AI agent can take a goal, choose its own next step, use tools like Search Console or your CMS, and act on what comes back. A dashboard shows you problems. An agent proposes fixes, makes the ones you approve, and checks the result.

Platforms differs in which job the agent owns: content, technical fixes, reporting, or AI visibility. Our roundup of [AI SEO tools](https://contengi.com/blog/ai-seo-tools) covers the non-agentic options too.

## 1\. Contengi: best for when the SEO job is content, refreshes, and AI visibility

Contengi's agents work from your brand knowledge base and your own data. The platform includes [Search Console reads and update plans, LLM tracking across five engines](https://contengi.com/pricing), and a hard-rule linter on every draft. Agents research and write new posts, edit live articles one section at a time, check links, and republish over the same URL on WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, or a Claude or v0 site.

LLM tracking checks whether ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and Perplexity mention your brand. Pricing is from $50 a month with no seats, plus your own Anthropic key, and it's in beta. Technical fixes like site speed or template-wide schema sit outside what Contengi does.

**Choose it if** your SEO growth comes from publishing and refreshing content, and you want it on-brand.

## 2\. Search Atlas: best for when you want an agent fixing your site's technical SEO

Search Atlas's OTTO agent runs technical fixes, on-page improvements, and content on its own. The [Starter plan is $99 a month billed monthly](https://searchatlas.com/pricing/) and includes Atlas Agent and OTTO SEO for one project and one site, and Growth is $199 a month with AI visibility for ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google AI Mode.

**Choose it if** your site has technical and on-page debt and you want an agent working through it.

## 3\. Alli AI: best for when you need bulk changes across thousands of pages

Alli AI deploys on-page fixes, schema, internal links, and speed improvements through a snippet or WordPress plugin, without editing source code. It also serves pre-rendered pages to more than 50 AI crawlers and runs SEO A/B tests. Every plan has a [10-day free trial](https://www.alliai.com/pricing).

Before you change how crawlers see your pages, check a few with the free [AI bot view](https://contengi.com/ai-bot-view).

**Choose it if** you run a large site on a CMS that's hard to edit and want changes live in bulk.

## 4\. AirOps: best for when AI search insights should drive content workflows

## How to start agentic SEO on a small site

1.  **Start with the striking-distance review**: have the agent pull queries in positions 11 to 20 from Search Console and group them by page.
2.  **Approve one refresh per page**, and let the agent edit and republish at the same URL.
3.  **Watch for decay** on older posts, using the signs in our guide to [content decay](https://contengi.com/blog/content-decay).
4.  **Add AI visibility tracking** so you see whether assistants mention you, alongside rankings. Our post on [LLM tracking](https://contengi.com/blog/llm-tracking) explains the numbers.
5.  **Keep publishing behind a human click**, because [Google's spam policies cover attempts to manipulate rankings and AI responses](https://developers.google.com/search/docs/essentials/spam-policies), whoever does the work.
6.  **Add new posts only after two months** of clean refreshes, once you know where the agent is sharp and where it guesses.
