# Integrations

> Connect Visibility.so with Google Analytics, Google Search Console, Google SSO, DataForSEO, and AI providers.

Visibility.so connects with third-party services to power SEO data, authentication, and AI visibility tracking. SEO integrations (Analytics, Search Console, DataForSEO) are configured per-project on **Project → Configuration → Integrations**.

***

## Google (Analytics + Search Console)

A single Google connection powers both **Google Analytics 4** (organic traffic, landing pages) and **Google Search Console** (queries, content opportunities). One consent screen grants both — you don't have to connect twice.

### Connecting

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open project Integrations">
    From your project, go to **Configuration → Integrations** and find the Google card.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Start OAuth flow">
    Click **Connect**. You'll be redirected to Google and asked to grant read access to Analytics *and* Search Console at the same time.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select GA4 property">
    Back on the Integrations page, pick the GA4 property that matches your project's domain.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select GSC site">
    Pick the verified Search Console site that matches your project's domain. The two pickers are independent — your GA property and your GSC site can have different display names but should describe the same website.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>If you connected Google before Search Console support was added, the GSC card shows a one-click **Re-connect** that re-grants the new scope without breaking your existing Analytics access.</Note>

### What you get from Analytics

* **Traffic reports** — sessions, users, bounce rate, average session duration
* **Landing page performance** — top organic landing pages
* **Daily time-series** — for visualising trends

GA data appears on the project's **Overview** tab under **Organic Traffic**. The card refreshes on your configured cadence (default once a week, on Mondays); you can also tune the schedule from the Integrations card.

### What you get from Search Console

* **Content opportunities** (the Content Gap sub-tab on the project's **Opportunities** page) — real search queries scored and ranked by win likelihood. See the [SEO Features → Content Opportunities](/seo-features#content-opportunities) section for details.

<Tip>The single Google account powers all three. Disconnecting from the Google card revokes Analytics + Search Console for *this project*. Other projects using the same Google account are unaffected.</Tip>

## Google SSO

Sign in to Visibility.so with your Google account for a seamless authentication experience.

### How It Works

* **New users** — Click **Sign in with Google** on the login page. An account is automatically created and linked to your Google identity.
* **Existing users** — If you signed up with email/password, link your Google account under **Settings > Account > Connected Accounts**. Once linked, you can sign in with either method.

<Note>Google SSO uses OAuth 2.0. Visibility.so only requests basic profile information (name and email). No data from your Google account is accessed beyond authentication.</Note>

## DataForSEO

DataForSEO powers keyword ranking tracking, domain metrics, and SERP data within Visibility.so.

### Capabilities

| Feature              | Description                                                   |
| -------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Keyword rankings** | Track your position for target keywords across search engines |
| **Domain metrics**   | Domain authority, referring domains, and backlink counts      |
| **SERP data**        | Search engine results page snapshots and competitor analysis  |

### Platform-Managed vs BYOK

DataForSEO can operate in two modes:

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Platform-Managed" icon="globe">
    API calls are routed through the Visibility.so platform using our default service configuration. No setup required — it works out of the box.
  </Card>

  <Card title="BYOK (Bring Your Own Key)" icon="key">
    Enter your own DataForSEO API credentials under **Settings > Integrations > DataForSEO**. API calls go directly through your key instead of the platform's default managed service. Ideal for high-volume usage.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

### Connecting BYOK

<Steps>
  <Step title="Get your DataForSEO credentials">
    Sign up at [dataforseo.com](https://dataforseo.com) and locate your API login and password in their dashboard.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter credentials">
    Go to **Settings > Integrations > DataForSEO** and enter your API login and password.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Test connection">
    Click **Test** to verify the credentials work. Once confirmed, click **Save**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Done">
    All DataForSEO calls will now use your key.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## AI Providers

Visibility.so tracks how AI models mention, recommend, and rank your brand. The platform queries the following AI providers as part of **AI Visibility** tracking:

| Provider               | What We Track                                               |
| ---------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| **ChatGPT** (OpenAI)   | Brand mentions and recommendations in ChatGPT responses     |
| **Claude** (Anthropic) | Brand mentions and recommendations in Claude responses      |
| **Gemini** (Google)    | Brand mentions and recommendations in Gemini responses      |
| **Perplexity**         | Brand citations and source references in Perplexity answers |

### How It Works

AI Visibility checks are automated. The platform periodically queries each AI provider with industry-relevant prompts related to your domain and keywords, then analyzes the responses for brand mentions, sentiment, and recommendation strength.

Results are displayed on the **AI Visibility** dashboard within each project, with breakdowns by provider and trend data over time.

<Info>AI Visibility scans are metered. Detailed consumption and billing will be introduced with our future pricing model.</Info>
