Key Capabilities
Monitor content scores with ai-sdk
Use `create_content_editor()` to generate an async query for a keyword and country code. You don't have to wait—you can then poll the system using `get_content_score()` to see how close your draft is getting to Surfer SEO guidelines. This streaming capability means users actually *see* the score change in real-time, not just after hitting a 'Load Data' button. The full flow allows you to guide content creation directly within your application.
Run live audits with ai-sdk
Need to check an existing page? Call `create_seo_audit()` passing the URL and target keyword. This starts a comprehensive audit for Surfer SEO data, which you then track down using `get_audit_details()`. You get instant verification that your content stacks up against competitors. Once the audit runs, you can use `get_serp_results()` to pull back the actual search engine results page data. This lets your agent build a full picture of what Google is currently rewarding.
Extract key terms with ai-sdk
Surfer SEO provides more than just scores; it pulls out specific phrases that matter. You can call `get_prominent_terms()` after an audit finishes to get a clean list of NLP-extracted keywords. These are the high-impact, natural language terms you should weave into your article. This data feeds directly into your client's UI, showing exactly where they need more keyword density or thematic coverage to hit top rankings. It keeps the developer focused on actionable text insertions.
