Search rankings, keywords, and competitor data on a prepaid meter — turned into plain answers about how your site is doing, with the cost of every call known before it runs.
10 actions · out of the box: SEO Analyst, Search Analyst
"How is the site doing?" One overview read returns organic keyword count, estimated monthly traffic and its value, and the top-3 and top-10 buckets. At about $0.012 it is the cheapest call in the set — and often the whole answer.
Runs on: dataforseo.domain_overview · dataforseo.balance
First the domains fighting for your keywords, then a side-by-side against the one that matters: every keyword you both rank for, their position next to yours, highest volume first. A target list, not a chart.
Runs on: dataforseo.competitors · dataforseo.keyword_gap
Not last month's export — the live Google page one for one keyword in one country: the ten ranking domains, their URLs, and the SERP features around them. A flat $0.002, one lookup per question.
Runs on: dataforseo.serp_organic
Before you blame the algorithm, a live crawl grades the page — on-page score, title and meta, internal links, load time, about fifty issue checks — at $0.00015 per page. The term you care about then expands into a long-tail list with volumes and difficulty.
Runs on: dataforseo.page_audit · dataforseo.keyword_suggestions
"Do we have the links to compete?" One call: rank score, total backlinks, referring domains, spam score. At about $0.024 it is the most expensive action in the set, and the agent says so before running it.
Runs on: dataforseo.backlinks_summary

The full twelve-agent roster, with every action list, is in AI agent examples.
Connect DataForSEO once, in the Ahel desktop app, with your own key — stored by your runtime, not by us, removable at any time. From then on any agent whose job needs it can use it: hand over a job, get back a run with a receipt.
DataForSEO sells API access on a prepaid balance — you top up an account and each call draws cents or fractions of a cent from it, at DataForSEO's own prices. Ahel adds no markup.
Between $0.00015 (a single page audit) and about $0.024 (a backlink authority summary), drawn from your prepaid DataForSEO balance at their prices. Each action's price is stated in its description above, and the balance check itself is free.
No subscription — DataForSEO works on a prepaid balance you top up with them. You connect your own API login in the Ahel desktop app and agents draw on that balance at DataForSEO's own prices, with no markup from us.
Three ways, all visible in the seed: agents check the free dataforseo.balance action before bursts of paid calls, the cheapest read (domain_overview) is documented as the starting point, and row defaults are fixed so a call's price is knowable before it runs.
No — in Ahel, DataForSEO is a set of ten seeded API actions that agents call directly with your own credentials. There is no separate MCP server to run or configure: connect once in the desktop app and any agent whose job needs the data can call them.
