A side-by-side look at the INITE AI Visibility and Qqq AI Visibility MCP MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose INITE AI Visibility for marketing work as a local process; choose Qqq AI Visibility MCP for marketing over a hosted endpoint. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.

check_ai_accessRead a site's robots.txt and say which AI crawlers may fetch it, separating the ones that retrieve pages to answer live questions from the ones that only collect training data. Blocking the first kind is what makes a site invisible in AI answers; blocking the second costs nothing. Runs locally, no account needed.check_identity_filesProbe a site for the identity files an AI engine may look for — llms.txt, ai.json, identity.json and the rest — and report which exist. Runs locally, no account needed.check_page_signalsRead a site's homepage and report the signals an engine uses to work out what it is: title, description, canonical, hreflang and the Schema.org types in its JSON-LD. Runs locally, no account needed.check_ai_visibilityFree AI visibility and GEO (generative engine optimization) check for a company website by QQQ (qqq.ee). Checks whether AI crawlers (GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended ...) may read the site, plus robots.txt, sitemap, Organization structured data, indexability and llms.txt, and returns the latest public report of brand mentions and citations in ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity answers when the domain has been checked before. The full AI answer check (brand visibility in live AI answers) runs on qqq.ee: the result always includes a prefilled link. Limited to a few checks per day; read-only.get_tool_infoDescribes the free QQQ AI Visibility Checker (qqq.ee): what it measures (brand mentions and website citations in ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity answers, AI crawler access, technical readiness for AI search / GEO), its limits, and the English and Estonian links to the web tool and full reports. No cost, no website is fetched.Paste either block (or both) into your client config, e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json. We only show a config when the install command is confirmed.
