What does Foglift show from Google Search Console?
Foglift uses Google's read-only Search Console scope to show verified-property query and page rows with clicks, impressions, click-through rate, and average position. The product offers 28-day and 90-day windows and keeps Google data labeled as Google evidence.
What does Foglift show from Bing Webmaster Tools?
Foglift connects Bing through Microsoft OAuth or a validated Bing Webmaster API key. It shows query and page performance, daily property traffic, and the latest property-level crawl and index snapshot, including pages crawled, pages in the index, crawl errors, and robots.txt blocks.
What is Contested Demand?
Contested Demand finds human-intent search queries with measurable impressions and a ranking, click-through, or absence gap. It then attaches Foglift's own AI-answer coverage and recognized AI-referral evidence when available, so a team can distinguish a search-ranking problem from an AI-answer selection problem.
Does Search Console data prove that an AI engine cited my page?
No. Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster data report their own search and indexing surfaces. Foglift's AI answers view is sourced from separate prompt monitoring across supported engines, while Sensor reports recognized referrals and crawler requests that reached the site. The product keeps those evidence layers distinct.
Which Foglift plans include Search Console connections?
Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools connections are available on every Foglift plan. Free includes one brand, active-use weekly Perplexity monitoring, AI Crawler Analytics, and unlimited single-page Technical Audits. Launch costs $49 per month and adds daily monitoring across five engines, full-site Technical Audits, REST API, CLI, MCP, and webhooks.
Can an AI assistant retrieve Search Console evidence from Foglift?
Yes, on Launch and higher plans. Foglift's read-only get_search_console MCP tool returns Google or Bing queries, pages, and Contested Demand. With provider set to bing, it can also return Bing crawl and index evidence. Google is the default provider for existing integrations.
