SearchDock

Startups

Startups cannot afford Semrush plus a separate AEO tool plus an agency retainer. SearchDock gives you GSC-backed rankings, 25 free AEO prompts, and agent-drafted gap plans from $49/mo — one login, no credit card to start.

Why both dashboards matter

The 12% problem

Only about 12% of the URLs ChatGPT cites rank in Google's top 10. Ranking and being cited are two different games. Most teams pay for two tools to play both. SearchDock is one.

SearchDock tracks Google rankings from Search Console and AI citations from multi-pass prompt sampling in one nav — Websites, Pages, Keywords, Competitors, GSC, and Crawl alongside your AEO Score.

Source: independent analyses of ChatGPT citation overlap with Google top-10 results (2025–2026). SearchDock measures both channels so you see the full picture.

What does SearchDock do for startups?

SearchDock is the SEO platform for startups that unifies rank tracking, AI citation monitoring, and content briefs from a free plan — replacing the need for separate SEO and AEO subscriptions in the first 18 months.

In your dashboard

Rankings and citations in one workspace

SearchDock connects to Google Search Console in about 2 minutes and uses real GSC data for rankings and clicks — not third-party estimates alone. SearchDock runs every tracked prompt multiple times and reports the average citation rate — not a single lucky answer — because AI responses are probabilistic. SearchDock surfaces the pages, keywords, and competitors that matter for startups — without exporting CSVs between tools.

  • Websites → Pages / Keywords / Competitors / GSC / Crawl in one nav
  • AEO Score (0–100) combining citation rate, extractability, and freshness
  • Autopilot Agents draft gap plans you approve before anything ships
