# SEO Automation

Put a skill on a schedule and the agent runs it without you — a rank check every Monday, a competitor sweep every morning — and posts the result into chat for you to read later.

## Ask it like this

- Run a rank check every Monday
- Sweep my competitors every morning
- Audit the site on the first of each month

## What you get

### A skill on a schedule

Pick any of the thirteen skills, pick how often, and it runs unattended. A rank check every Monday, a competitor sweep every morning, an audit the first of the month.

### It reports into chat

The result lands in the conversation for you to read later, in the same thread as everything else the employee knows about your site.

### Quiet when nothing happened

A workflow that finds nothing worth saying does not manufacture a report. The point is to be told when something changed.

## How it works

1. **Connect your website** — One workspace per site. It crawls what you have, learns what the business does, and — if you connect Google Search Console — starts from your own measured performance rather than from market averages.
2. **Ask for the job** — Pick the skill or let Auto route it, and describe what you want in a sentence. It buys the data it needs from DataForSEO and Ahrefs instead of estimating it, and reads the live results for the terms in question.
3. **Review, then decide** — The findings land in chat and are saved to the project, so the next question builds on them. Nothing reaches your site unless you approve it — the only thing that can publish is an article, to a CMS you connected.

## Where the data comes from

- Whichever skill the schedule runs
- Google Search Console
- DataForSEO and Ahrefs

## Frequently asked questions

### What exactly is an Employee Workflow?

A job on a schedule: you pick a skill, you pick how often, and the agent runs it while you are away — a rank check every Monday, a competitor sweep every morning — and posts the result in chat for you to read later.

### What does a scheduled run cost?

One request, the same as asking the question yourself. That is why the unit of price is a request rather than a message: a workflow firing at six in the morning does work, and nobody sent a message.

### Can a workflow change my site on its own?

No. Workflows research and report. The only thing that ever reaches your site is an article, to a CMS you connected, that a person approved.

### Which skills can be scheduled?

Any of them, plus rank monitoring, which exists specifically as a scheduled job: it compares two periods of Search Console data and reports what rose, fell, appeared or disappeared.
