gap_outreach_targets is the one to reach for: it runs the gap job, keeps only the domains linking to every competitor you named, strips platform noise, and ranks what is left. The data is a quarterly Common Crawl snapshot, so it fits one-off prospecting rather than watching links change day to day.
A server over the CrawlGraph backlink API, which is built on the public Common Crawl webgraph. Four tools: backlinks for one domain, a competitor gap analysis, a ranked outreach list, and the crawl snapshots you can query.
- Every referring domain for a target, each with a host count and an authority score, plus the target's own authority and rank
- A gap analysis returning domains that link to one or more competitors but not to you, with which competitors each one links to
- A ranked outreach list: domains linking to all of your competitors first, then those linking to two or more, with platform and CDN noise filtered out and the top targets scored by authority
- The gap job submitted and polled for you, so one call covers the whole wait
- The list of Common Crawl releases available, so a lookup can be pinned to a specific snapshot
A CrawlGraph API key, handed to the server at launch. The free tier covers backlink lookups; the two gap tools sit on the paid lifetime tier. Runs under Node.
One command plus a key — npx -y crawlgraph-mcp, then supply credentials
