What it does for you
What “Client report for agencies” does for you
Visibility, competitors and a branded share link per client: your assistant answers from your own Howseen data, the same numbers as your dashboard, in one plain-English command.
For agencies running several brands: the client_report prompt pulls each client's numbers and creates a client-ready link with your agency branding. One conversation per client instead of screenshots and slides.
Under the hood
The tools it uses
Your assistant picks these Howseen tools by itself. Read tools work with any key. Action tools need a key with actions enabled, and every change is previewed before you confirm it.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
list_brands | The brands tracked in your account |
get_visibility | Visibility %, share of voice, average position and trend, per engine |
get_competitors | Competitor ranking by visibility |
create_share_report | A client-ready report link with your agency branding (confirmed) |
“Think of MCP like a USB-C port for AI applications.”
Anthropic open-sourced the protocol in November 2024 (Anthropic, Introducing the Model Context Protocol (November 2024)), and OpenAI documents how its models connect to remote MCP servers (OpenAI, Connectors and MCP servers). All 26 tools and the security model are on the MCP server page.

Different engines trust different sources: in our study of 5,331 AI answers, YouTube was cited in 45% of Google AI Overviews and in 0 of 1,164 ChatGPT answers. Research on generative engines shows that the way a page answers decides how often it is cited (Aggarwal et al., GEO: Generative Engine Optimization, KDD 2024). The MCP server is included from Pro and in the 3-day trial (pricing).
