Config-as-code YAML for AEO monitoring beats manual spreadsheet tracking for agencies.

Strengths

•Cross-references AI visibility data with real traffic from GSC and GA4 APIs.
•CLI-first design allows config-as-code management for multiple client projects.
•Built-in Aero agent automatically wakes up after runs to suggest fixes.

Weaknesses

•Relies on heuristic scraping of AI engines which may break as interfaces change.
•Niche focus on AEO limits appeal to general SEOs not yet tracking AI citations.

Post Description

Icouldn't find an open-source, agent-first way to monitor AI search results + traffic so I built Canonry out.

There are tons of nuances with AI web search but have gotten really good results using canonry locally as it can cross reference with GSC, GA to really get a holistic view on the search space.
