Questions buyers ask
Is the Suede AI SEO audit really free?
Yes. The audit, the full findings list, the evidence, the impact and the downloadable report cost nothing and need no account. The fix steps, code and workflow handoff come with a paid Studio plan.
How many SEO projects can I create?
Create one project per site you work on. Agencies usually run one per client and open each client's SEO work from Clients.
Where does Agent Studio's keyword data come from?
Live Google search data for the market you choose, pulled at the moment you search. The live results card reads the current Google top 10 for any keyword.
How many keywords can I track?
Up to 1,000 keywords per tracker, and you can run several trackers in one project, for example one per city or one per service line.
What is a local rank grid?
A map of Google Maps rankings from a grid of points around a business. Each point shows the business's position for one keyword as a searcher standing there would see it, so you see how far its visibility reaches.
Can I check backlinks for any website, not only mine?
Yes. Enter any domain, subfolder or URL. Checking competitors is where the best link building ideas come from.
How do I get my business mentioned by ChatGPT?
Let ChatGPT's search crawler (OAI-SearchBot) read your site, state who you are in business schema, and publish pages that answer buyer questions with specific, sourced facts. Then earn mentions on the third-party pages ChatGPT already cites. Agent Studio checks the first three for free and tracks whether ChatGPT names you.
Why do ChatGPT and Perplexity give different answers to the same question?
Each assistant searches the web its own way, trusts different sources and writes from a different model. That is why the Prompt explorer shows them side by side: a brand that wins Perplexity and loses ChatGPT needs a different fix than one missing everywhere.
