enginesRank checks can use configured SERP APIs or proxies such as SerpApi, SearchApi, HasData, ValueSERP, Serper and related providers; Google Search Console and Google Ads can add owned-site and keyword data.
dataProjects, keywords, rank history, tags, users, and settings live in a persistent SQLite database and deployment volume; configured rank-data providers receive each query sent through them.
setupThe first real obstacle is choosing and funding a working SERP API or maintaining proxies after deployment; the historically free scraper routes documented by the project are not reliably zero-cost anymore.

Rank tracking with history, alerts and Google Ads ideas; not five mangoes, but it covers the edible parts.
