# OpenSEO

Open-source Ahrefs and SEMrush alternative you can self-host

## What it is

Maker-submitted description:

OpenSEO is an open-source alternative to Ahrefs and SEMrush. MIT licensed, self-hostable with one Docker command, and no subscription, you pay per lookup instead of per month, and your data stays on your own infrastructure. 17 tools ship in the box: 6 keyword tools (overview, ideas, difficulty, SERP checker), 8 website and backlink tools (domain overview, page analyser, backlink profiles, competitor analysis), and 3 AI and local tools. Site audits run 117 technical checks across up to 500 pages. Local rank grids go from 3x3 to 7x7. Rank tracking starts at $0.02 per check. AI visibility is the part the incumbents do not have. OpenSEO tracks whether ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity actually cite your site, measured across 120+ AI models. And because it ships a 76-tool MCP server, your coding agent can run every one of those tools itself, audit a site, pull keyword data, check rankings, without anyone opening a dashboard. Free to use: Search Console data, full site audits, and a local rank grid for any business. Clone the repo, run one Docker command, and it is yours.
