> How search is actually finding you, and whether the sitemap is healthy.

Ray is an AI teammate that works in your team chat, on Slack today. Connect Google Search Console and it can do the Google Search Console part of a request without anyone leaving the conversation: read what it needs, draft the change, and post it for approval before anything is written. 6 reads run without asking. Writing to Google Search Console is not switched on yet.

## What Ray reads in Google Search Console

Reading changes nothing, so Ray never stops to ask whether it may look something up.

- Search performance for any query you ask for
- URL inspection, sitemaps, and the sites on the account

## What Ray writes

Ray reads Google Search Console and answers from it in the thread. Writing to Google Search Console is not switched on yet, so there is nothing to approve.

## Things Ray is never handed

These are left out during curation, so they are not something Ray could do and decides against. They are not in front of it at all.

- Remove a site from the account

## Ask it like this

- "@Ray which queries are we ranking for that we did not expect?"

## Connecting Google Search Console

Every person on the team connects their own Google Search Console account on Google Search Console's own login screen, so Ray can only reach what that person can already reach, and the history in Google Search Console shows who actually asked. Passwords never pass through Ray. Disconnecting Google Search Console or uninstalling Ray revokes the connection.
