What changes: your AI reads the record
SerpRobot's pages name an API but no AI connection. So answering "what moved?" in your AI means export and paste, or scripting its API with your key. Here your AI reads the record itself: positions stored with date and ranking page. See the old way and the new way
What your AI can doalpinerun.example: which keywords dropped this week? For the biggest drop, show me what changed around it. Then make the client report for the last 30 days.

Four alpinerun.example keywords dropped this week, and "trail running shoes" is the one to look at first. […] Cause: this data shows what moved, not why, so it doesn't explain the drop. […] Download the 30-day PDF report.
What you gain by moving
- Your AI runs the tracker: keywords, what moved, alerts and the PDF
- Slack and webhook alerts, and a white-label PDF. SerpRobot names reports and alerts, but its public pages do not say how they reach you, so compare with what you have today
- Google AI Overview: shown and cited, in the dashboard and for your AI. Its pages do not mention it
- A full refund within 14 days of the first payment
- A lower price when your list nearly fills a plan, such as 500 or 1,000 keywords
What you give up
- A lower price at most list sizes, starting from one bot
- A free trial that asks for no payment
- Lists above 1,000 keywords: no plan here goes higher
- Bing, Yahoo, YouTube and Google My Business rankings
- The read-only client view on a white-label site
- Your ranking history, which stays where it is
The table above has the full list.
How to move
-
Add each site
One project for each site, location, language and device you track today. A site on desktop and mobile takes two projects, and its keywords count twice against your plan. Your AI can do this with
create_project. -
Bring your keywords
Paste them, import a CSV, or give the list to your AI. Your record here starts with the first check.
-
Run both for a while
History does not transfer, so positions here start from the first check. Keep your bots until the new record covers your reports.
