How it works

Ask Make. Rankbox does the research.

Rankbox runs as an MCP server, the open standard Make uses to call outside tools. You connect it once.

  1. Every Monday, get the AI search questions for our five core topics.

    01

    You ask Make

    In plain words, the way you already work. No commands to learn.

  2. generate_ai_questions(“CRM for startups”)

    02

    Make calls Rankbox

    It picks the right Rankbox tool and sends only what the tool needs.

    • What's the best CRM for a seed-stage startup?
    • HubSpot vs Pipedrive for startups?

    03

    The research comes back

    Make works with it right away: plans, writes, or builds from it.

Try it

Rankbox and Make

Connecting, plans, privacy, and what the tools can do in Make.

Three things: find the questions people ask AI engines about a topic, build an SEO content brief for a keyword, and write meta descriptions for a page. Make calls them when you ask.

No. Rankbox's tools only receive the topic, keyword, or page summary Make sends when it calls them, and they send back research. They can't read your workflows or connected apps.

No. The Rankbox MCP server comes with your Rankbox plan, including the free trial.

No. The MCP connection is for research and planning. To publish articles to your site automatically, connect it with one of Rankbox's website integrations or the REST API.
