Short answer

How can I check a site's authority and spam score with AI?

Your AI uses the Mozscape MCP to pull Domain Authority, Page Authority, and Spam Score for any URL you provide. This lets you flag low-quality sites before you start outreach. You'll see the specific data points and outcomes below.

Where the data lands.

The results of your audit.

The AI processes the metrics and organizes them into these outcomes.

RISK

Spam detection
