arberxon Open-source "PostHog" for AI visibility

Canonry is like PostHog for AI visibility as it's able to tie server side traffic, with AI visibility along with traditional metrics from Google Search Console, Google Analytics and paid channels.

With agents, it it currently runs a lot of our day to day AEO/SEO + marketing operations.

arberxon We made Canonry open source

Canonry is an agent-first operating system for AEO/GEO/SEO.

We built out Canonry to service our own clients and are now releasing it under an MIT license.

Excited to share!
