People ask a question and get one answer, from Google or an AI engine. Umbodi makes your business the source that answer trusts: it audits your site, opens the fix, checks the change went live, then measures what happened, at an autonomy you set. Most tools stop at the audit.
It will not change your website without asking. Run it hosted, or on your own infrastructure. Works on Google rankings and on being the source AI answers cite.
Measured means read from a search engine or from your site. Estimate means Umbodi projected it. The two never share a number.
Every SEO tool ends at a list of things someone else has to do. Umbodi carries the change onto your site, then checks it landed. No repository required — the default route writes the file and hands it to you.
Umbodi opens a real pull request, with the diff and the reasoning. Your review, your merge. Nothing reaches production without you.
Sitemap submission and indexing pings go straight out. No page to change, nothing to review.
No repository, or a CMS we cannot reach? Umbodi writes the exact file and hands it over. The default, and it needs no trust.
Auto-publishing to your own site exists, and is deliberately last on the dial — its own setting, not a nudge.
Five categories, set independently, capped by your plan. Start supervised; move one category when it has earned it.
Three of the four leave publishing with you. That is the design, not a limitation. Discoverability here means the files that control crawling and indexing — sitemap, robots.txt, llms.txt and your AI-crawler policy.
Anyone can show you a chart that goes up. The harder question is whether it went up because of the change.
Read the methodology — every number and what it may claim →
A tenth of eligible fixes are deliberately not applied. That control group is the difference between a measurement and a story.
A measured rank and a projected lift never share a number, a colour or a sentence. Enforced in the test suite, not a style guide.
Each applied change names its actor — you, the agent, or an observation that the page came good on its own.
When there is not enough data, the product says so. A zero meaning “we did not look” is a defect here, not a rounding choice.
Your customer increasingly reads an AI answer instead of clicking. Umbodi works both surfaces, and keeps them separate facts.
Live position checks and your Search Console traffic. Read, never computed.
We ask the question of every answer engine we hold a key for and check whether your domain is among the cited sources. Five engines today, and every answer says how many were asked.
How quotable a page is: a direct answer up top, clean headings, FAQ markup. A projection, and it says so.
Finds the questions people ask, writes the answer block and FAQ markup, and ships it down the same governed path.
Referring domains and backlinks, read from the indexed web rather than estimated. Authority is what gates both surfaces: without it a page ranks for nothing but its own name, and no answer engine has a reason to cite it.
Finds the roundups already ranking for your keywords that never mention you, reads the byline off the page, and drafts the pitch. It never sends it, and it never invents an address — mailing a stranger on your behalf is the one thing it will not do.
Umbodi is the engine. The hosted app, the API and the licensed build are ways to use it — one product, three deployments.
Connect a site, pick a goal, set the dial. Proposals arrive ranked; approve them, or let trusted categories run.
A typed client, an HTTP service, an MCP server so your agent can drive it, and embeddable widgets.
Self-host or white-label, with your own provider keys and an offline licence. For agencies and product teams.
There is no anonymous demo: you register first, and that is the only thing we ask before the product runs on your own site. What you get after that depends on whether the work costs us anything to run.
Genuinely limited. You get the parts that cost nothing to run, and a one-time allowance to try the rest.
After your welcome credits: anything calling a search engine or an AI model — rank checks, competitor discovery, content generation, citation checks — needs credits from a plan or a credit pack.
A monthly credit allowance for the work that costs money to run.
You are never billed for work that fails. The wallet refuses the call rather than running it and invoicing you after.
Prices come from the live plan table, not from this copy. A number typed into a sales page goes stale quietly.
Subscribe and connect your site in minutes — or license the agent to self-host and white-label. Both run the same core. Accounts & billing are handled by the marketplace.
Every figure is the whole monthly allowance spent on that one action. They draw on the same balance, so these are alternatives — not a bundle you get all of.
| Action | Credits each | Free | Starter | Growth | Scale |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Keyword rank check | 1 | 0 | 2,000 | 10,000 | 40,000 |
| AI-answer citation check | 12 | 0 | 166 | 833 | 3,333 |

Commercial license + EULA, pluggable storage & billing, one-command install. For agencies and product teams.
Indicative pricing. Each plan includes a monthly Umbodi credit allowance for the paid actions the agent runs (search + AI). Top up anytime in prepaid packs, or bring your own keys for near-zero cost — you’re never billed for work that fails.
Umbodi was built running the live SEO for a real multi-format publishing platform (Bea's Stories): sitemaps, structured data, competitor tracking, autonomous content, and self-healing — in production, on real traffic, with a security-reviewed data model.
Autonomy, self-healing, learning, analytics, competitor intel, content, notifications, portability.
Pure, dependency-free logic — the decisions that must be right are unit-tested.
Row-level security + budget metering + circuit breakers, verified against production.
Two seams — content + storage — so it drops into any site or stack.
Umbodi is an autonomous agent for search and AI-answer visibility. It audits your site, decides which fixes are worth making, opens a pull request against your repository to make them, re-fetches the page to confirm the change went live, then re-measures your position to see whether it helped. Most SEO tools stop at the audit and leave the work to you.
There is a free account, and it requires registration — there is no anonymous demo. It runs the full on-page audit on one site, which costs nothing because it calls no paid API, with every change waiting for your approval. A new account also starts with a one-time allowance of welcome credits to try the paid features. Anything that calls a search engine or an AI model, such as live rank checks, competitor discovery, content generation and AI-answer citation checks, is a paid feature and needs credits.
Only if you tell it to. Autonomy is set per task across five categories, and three of the four presets keep publishing with you. Where Umbodi does publish, it opens a pull request you review and merge, or hands you the exact file to paste. Writing directly to your own site is a separate setting you have to choose deliberately.
Umbodi withholds a tenth of eligible fixes as a control group, so the pages it changed can be compared against comparable pages it deliberately left alone. It also keeps a measured rank read from Google strictly separate from any figure it projects, and writes an entry naming who applied each change. When there is not enough data to answer, it says so rather than printing a zero.
Yes, and it treats them as separate facts. Umbodi asks an answer engine your questions and checks whether your domain is among the sources it cites, which is a measured signal. It also scores how quotable each page is, which is a projection and is labelled as one, and it writes the self-contained answer blocks and FAQ structured data that make a page citable.
Yes. The same engine ships three ways: the hosted app, an API with a typed client and an MCP server so your own agent can drive it, and a licensed build you self-host or white-label under your own brand with your own provider keys.
Create your account and run the audit on your own site. It costs nothing and calls no paid service.
