Flowise + Answer Socrates
Add Answer Socrates to your Flowise agent so it can pull real Google data automatically: hundreds of real searches for any keyword, 12 months of Google Trends and the searches rising right now. Build an agentflow for weekly content ideas and the agent groups the lot into a content plan.
Last updated: October 2026
Add Answer Socrates to a Flowise Agent node with the Custom MCP tool. One block of config over Streamable HTTP and an API key from your Answer Socrates account.
Create an API key on your Answer Socrates Account page. It is shown once, so copy it somewhere safe.
In your agentflow, open the Agent node and add a new Custom MCP tool.
In MCP Server Config, paste this, with your own key in place of as_live_YOUR_KEY:
{
"url": "https://answersocrates.com/api/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer as_live_YOUR_KEY"
}
}Refresh Available Actions. If the Answer Socrates tools load, the connection works. Select the ones this agent needs.
Ask your first question in the chat, for example: Use Answer Socrates to pull the keywords for yoga.
Rather not keep the key in the flow? Store it as a Flowise variable and reference that variable in the Authorization header instead.
Ask a Flowise agent for keywords on its own and the model guesses from what it learned in training. With Answer Socrates connected it pulls what people actually type into Google: hundreds of real search phrases per keyword, sorted into four groups.
How, what, why, can: the questions people ask about your topic, ready for FAQs and blog posts.
For, with, without, near: the qualifiers that show what people actually want.
Vs, or, like, and: the head-to-head searches that sit right before a buying decision.
The full a to z list of Google suggestions for your keyword.
What a keyword pull returns, from a real Answer Socrates session:
get_keywordssave_to_project
1,187 keywords for creatine gummies: 160 Questions (“are creatine gummies as effective as powder” asked five different ways: pure format skepticism), 166 Comparisons, 81 Prepositions, 30 time-based and 750 autocomplete phrases.
Saved to Supplements. Your team can see the full list in the app now. Want them as a CSV too? That's free.
Planning videos? Ask for the YouTube version and Flowise pulls what people type into YouTube's own search box, sorted into the same four groups. YouTube searches lean towards tutorials, reviews and how-tos, so the list is different from Google's.
get_youtube_keywords
Here are the YouTube searches for yoga, grouped into Questions, Prepositions, Comparisons and Autocomplete, with the how-to questions up top. Want the Google version too?
Give the agent a market and it maps it: what's climbing, what's seasonal and what's fading, from 12 months of Google Trends data in any country. Rising searches adds the related searches growing fastest right now.
Weekly Google Trends interest for any keyword across the last 12 months, in any country.
See when a keyword peaks and when it dips, so your content is live before the rush.
Run the same keyword in the UK, the US or any other country and chart them side by side.
Compare 10 or more keywords at once to see which are climbing and which are fading.
The related searches growing fastest right now, including brand-new Breakouts.
Ask the Flowise agent to table it or return it in the shape the next node needs. Reworking data it already pulled costs nothing.
And much more. Ask in plain English and Flowise picks the right tools, like this comparison of one keyword in two countries:
get_rising_topicsget_trends ×12
Over the last 12 months, the big movers are clear whey +190%, creatine gummies +94% (a real format shift, not hype), electrolytes +63% and magnesium glycinate +62%. Classic whey is resurging (+64%) while ashwagandha is the only decliner (−5%). That trend has peaked.
In the rising searches, Nutricost whey is up +1,850% and two brands hit Breakout. Almost everything peaks in April, so publish by March to catch the crest. Want me to pull the full keyword set for creatine gummies? (1 request)
Use the list the agent just pulled, or pass in one of your own. Answer Socrates groups it into topics and labels every keyword with search intent and funnel stage, so you know what to write first. Clustering is paid in cluster credits, 1 per keyword, not requests.
cluster_keywords
931 keywords into 18 topics. The biggest is what keyword research is at 206 keywords, almost all top-of-funnel. The money is elsewhere: free keyword research tools (144) and paid tools and pricing (72) are both commercial and mid-funnel.
Only 13% didn't fit a topic. Want me to list any cluster in full, or export the lot as a CSV?
Flowise is great at building agents and chatflows visually. What those agents lack is live search data, and that is the part Answer Socrates adds.

|---|---|---|
| Keyword ideas | The model guesses from training data | Hundreds of real Google searches per keyword |
| Questions people ask | Plausible-sounding questions | Real questions from Google autocomplete |
| Search trends | No Google Trends data | 12 months of Google Trends, any country |
| What's rising now | Only what your other tools fetch | Google's rising searches, Breakouts included |
| Clustering | Groups whatever you pass in | Topics, intent and funnel stage for every keyword |
| Saving the work | Stays in the chat | Saved to your projects for the whole team |
Anything you would ask an SEO on your team. Put the instruction in the agent, or ask in the chat, and name the topic, the market and what you want back.

That is a different job, on the same account. This page is about using Flowise to do your SEO. To find out whether AI assistants recommend your brand, the LLM Brand Tracker runs your prompts across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and more, and shows who gets mentioned.
Track your brand in AI searchConnecting is free. The data comes from your Answer Socrates plan, where every plan includes 3 requests a month to try it and Seneca and above include the full allowances. Your plan has two separate allowances:
1 request per data call: rising topics, Google Trends or a full keyword pull. Checking your usage, saving to projects and exports are free.
1 credit per keyword you cluster, 10 to 1,000 keywords per call. These are the same cluster credits as the clustering tool in the app, and clustering never spends requests.
| Plan | Requests | Cluster credits |
|---|---|---|
| Free | 3 /mo | ✕ |
| Lite | 3 /mo | ✕ |
| Seneca | 500 /mo | 12,000 /mo |
| Aurelius | 2,500 /mo | 40,000 /mo |
| Senate | 25,000 /mo | 100,000 /mo |
Free and Lite include 3 requests a month to try it, renewed on the 1st, with no clustering through MCP. Yearly plans get 12 months of both allowances up front. Team plans share one pool across all seats.
