# AI visibility tool with Google Search Console integration

Yes. Limelit connects Google Search Console on every account, including the free one; it reads your Search Console data and does not change your site or rankings.

## What the integration reads

Read-only access

An owner of your Limelit account connects Search Console with Google sign-in, and Limelit asks only for read-only access (the webmasters.readonly scope).

One opt-in write

Sitemap auto-submit is the only write, and it is opt-in: Limelit asks Google for the wider permission only if you turn it on.

28 days of Search Analytics

Each sync reads the last 28 days of Search Analytics, by page and by page and query.

Up to 25,000 rows per pass

Each pass requests up to 25,000 rows, the most the Search Console API returns, so low-click queries are not cut off.

Six findings

Limelit derives six findings from your data: content decay, cannibalisation, CTR gap, quick wins, content gaps and traffic drops.

Striking distance

It lists the queries where your pages sit at positions 5 to 20, close enough that a better page can move up.

A weekly digest

A weekly Search Console digest is on the dashboard and available to your AI agent over MCP. It is not emailed.

URL Inspection for published pages

URL Inspection runs only on the pages Limelit publishes for you, not on every URL in your property.

## What it does not do

- Write to Search Console, except submitting your sitemap if you turn on sitemap auto-submit.
- Show your rank inside AI answers: Search Console reports Google Search only, and Limelit measures AI answers separately, from its own prompt runs.
- Track Bing: Bing Webmaster Tools is not connected.

## From your AI agent

Limelit's MCP server reads the same Search Console data, so your AI agent can ask about it directly. The tools are:

- `gsc_property_summary`
- `gsc_url_status`
- `gsc_search_analytics`
- `gsc_weekly_digest`
- `gsc_findings`

Questions

## The things people ask us first.

### Does the Search Console integration cost extra?

No. It is on every Limelit account, including the free one.

### Can Limelit change my site or my Search Console settings?

No. Limelit asks Google for read-only access. The only write is sitemap auto-submit, and Limelit asks for that permission only if you turn it on.

### How much Search Console data does Limelit read?

The last 28 days of Search Analytics, by page and by page and query, up to 25,000 rows per pass.

### Does Limelit email the weekly Search Console digest?

No. The digest is on the dashboard and available over MCP; it is not emailed.

### Does Limelit connect Bing Webmaster Tools?

No. Only Google Search Console is connected, so Bing is not tracked.

### Does Limelit inspect every URL on my site?

No. URL Inspection runs only on the pages Limelit publishes for you. Search Analytics covers your whole property.
