About Rank Math

Rank Math bets the WordPress SEO plugin on being agent-native and AI-search aware

Rank Math is a mature WordPress SEO plugin now reorienting around AI. Over the last two months it has shipped a growing set of MCP tools that let AI assistants query a site's links, schema, and keyword data directly, and added AI Visibility to track how a brand surfaces inside AI platforms. The classic SEO surface (schema, sitemaps, link building) is in steady maintenance underneath.
