SEO Tasks Brass-SEO Automates
Six SEO tasks that take hours with spreadsheets and seconds with AI connected to your actual Google data. Each section shows the manual way and the Brass-SEO way.
The Problem
The bottleneck for small business SEO is not data — Google Search Console and Google Analytics are free — it is the hours spent exporting CSVs, comparing date ranges, formatting spreadsheets, and interpreting numbers every week.
Brass-SEO connects directly to your GSC and GA4 accounts. You ask a question in plain English, and the AI runs the analysis that would have taken you an afternoon. Below are six tasks where this matters most.
Writing Meta Descriptions
Brass-SEO writes meta descriptions grounded in your actual search data — the queries people use, the pages they click, and the content on the page.
The manual way: Export your top pages from GSC. Open each URL. Read the page content. Check which queries drive impressions. Write a 160-character description that includes relevant keywords and a compelling reason to click. Repeat for every page. Budget 30-60 minutes per page if you want to do it well.
With Brass-SEO: Ask "write a meta description for [url]" and the AI reads your GSC click data, crawls the page content, and drafts a description in seconds. You review and publish.

Checking If Your SEO Is Working
Brass-SEO cross-references GSC and GA4 to tell you whether your SEO efforts are moving the needle — in one answer, not two dashboards.
The manual way: Open GSC. Export the last 28 days and the previous 28 days. Compare clicks, impressions, CTR, and average position. Open GA4. Check organic sessions, bounce rate, and engagement time for the same periods. Cross-reference the two exports in a spreadsheet. Budget 15-30 minutes, and that only covers the high-level numbers.
With Brass-SEO: Ask "is my SEO working?" and the AI pulls both data sources, compares periods, and tells you what improved, what declined, and what to focus on next.

Finding Declining Pages
Brass-SEO compares period-over-period data to surface pages losing clicks or impressions before the drop becomes a crisis.
The manual way: Export page-level data from GSC for two date ranges. Sort by click change. Filter out pages with negligible traffic. Identify which drops are seasonal versus structural. Budget 20-40 minutes, and you still might miss slow declines that have been building for months.
With Brass-SEO: Ask "which pages are declining?" and the AI compares your recent data to the previous period, highlights the biggest drops, and suggests what might be causing each one.

Writing Title Tags from Data
Brass-SEO uses CTR and impression data from GSC to identify pages with underperforming title tags and suggest rewrites backed by real numbers.
The manual way: Export your page data from GSC. Sort by impressions, then check CTR for each page. For pages with high impressions and low CTR, check the current title tag, research what competing titles look like, and write an alternative under 60 characters. Repeat. Budget 20-40 minutes per page.
With Brass-SEO: Ask "which pages need better title tags?" and the AI finds pages where CTR is below expected for their position, reads the current title, and drafts alternatives using the queries that actually drive impressions.

Checking Indexing Status
Brass-SEO calls the Google URL Inspection API to check whether a specific page is in Google's index — and tells you why or why not.
The manual way: Open Google Search Console. Navigate to URL Inspection. Paste the URL. Wait for results. Interpret the coverage state, crawl status, canonical URL, and indexing state. Repeat for each URL you want to check. You can only check one URL at a time, and the interface gives you raw technical statuses without explaining what to do about them.
With Brass-SEO: Ask "is [url] indexed?" and the AI checks the URL Inspection API, translates the technical response into plain English, and explains what to do if the page is not indexed.

Finding Content Gaps
Brass-SEO analyzes your GSC queries to find topics where you rank incidentally but have no dedicated page — opportunities to create content that captures traffic you are already attracting.
The manual way: Export all queries from GSC. Group them by intent or topic. Compare each group to your existing pages. Identify topics where you get impressions but have no matching content. Most people skip this entirely because grouping hundreds of queries by hand is tedious. Budget 1-2 hours if you are thorough.
With Brass-SEO: Ask "what content gaps do I have?" and the AI scans your queries, groups them by theme, checks them against your existing pages, and returns a prioritized list of topics worth creating content for.

Most small businesses pay an SEO agency $500–$5,000 per month. When the work the agency does is increasingly automated, the math changes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I still need Ahrefs or SEMrush if I use Brass-SEO?
Brass-SEO replaces parts of those tools — specifically the tasks that rely on your own GSC and GA4 data, like finding declining pages, checking indexing, writing meta descriptions from real search data, and spotting content gaps. If you need backlink analysis or competitive keyword research across domains you do not own, you would still need a dedicated tool for that.
Can I do all of this manually without any tool?
Yes. Every task on this page can be done with Google Search Console, Google Analytics, and a spreadsheet. The difference is time. Tasks that take 30-60 minutes each add up to hours per week. Brass-SEO runs the same analysis in seconds because it reads your data and applies the logic automatically.
How is Brass-SEO different from a free AI prompt?
A free AI prompt works with whatever data you paste in. Brass-SEO is connected to your Google Search Console and Google Analytics accounts, so the AI sees your actual clicks, impressions, rankings, and engagement metrics in real time. It can cross-reference GSC and GA4 data, check indexing status, and crawl your pages — things a standalone prompt cannot do.
What data does Brass-SEO need to automate these tasks?
Brass-SEO requires both Google Search Console and Google Analytics 4 connected via OAuth. GSC provides ranking data (clicks, impressions, position, CTR) and indexing status. GA4 provides engagement data (sessions, bounce rate, engagement rate). Both are required — you cannot use one without the other.
How much does Brass-SEO cost?
Brass-SEO costs $25 per month with a 3-day free trial. There are no usage caps, tier limits, or per-query charges. You get unlimited AI analysis of your SEO data for a flat monthly price.
