Japanese keyword research and SEO analysis from a RakkoKeyword account
Overview
RakkoKeyword is a keyword research tool built around the Japanese search market. The connector exposes its research functions to an assistant: suggestion scraping from Google, YouTube, Bing, Amazon, and Rakuten; related keywords and question sets from the vendor's own database; LSI terms and People Also Ask items; monthly search volume with difficulty, cost per click, competition, and trend history; Google rank measurement; competitor analysis by ranking keywords and traffic pages; and heading and co-occurrence extraction from top ranking pages for writing support.
Volume research can be scoped to locations and languages outside Japan, though the strength the listing claims is domestic. Twenty four tools are listed, and a RakkoKeyword account is required.

Rate limited research APIs normally sit behind a key, and this one is no exception: the endpoint returns 401, leaving the twenty four listed tools uninspected.
Availability
RakkoKeyword is listed in the Claude connectors directory only. Rakko, inc. has no app under the same domain in the ChatGPT directory; 392 of the 3,150 products here are on both marketplaces, and this is not one of them.
The MCP server behind a Claude connector is usually the same server a ChatGPT app would need, so the absence is a distribution decision rather than a technical one.
Claude listing
RakkoKeyword publishes 24 tools to Claude, deeper than 75.5% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors.
The median Claude-listed connector filed under Sales & Marketing publishes 18, so this one runs 6 tools above its bucket's median and ranks 38th of 94 by tool count.
It falls in the 21-50 tools band, which holds 20% of the Claude directory.
RakkoKeyword publishes a remote MCP endpoint. Claude connects to it over HTTP; there is nothing to install locally.
Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there.
https://api.rakkokeyword.com/mcp RakkoKeyword is community-listed in the Claude directory, the tier 770 of 1,253 connectors sit in (61.5%). It is the default for a self-published server, and says nothing either way about quality.

Node8 builds MCP servers end to end: deciding which tools are worth exposing, the authentication and permission model, the review submissions, and the onboarding that gets them used. One server serves ChatGPT, Claude, and Microsoft Copilot.
