🔍 What Is an OTTO Project Slot?
An OTTO project slot is one active OTTO SEO instance connected to a single website. Each slot allows OTTO to audit, optimize, and automate SEO tasks for that specific domain. The number of slots available to you depends on your current subscription plan.
📊 How Many OTTO Slots Does Each Plan Include?
The number of OTTO slots varies by plan. On the Starter plan ($99/month), you receive 1 OTTO slot, meaning you can have OTTO actively running on one website at a time. Higher-tier plans include additional slots to support larger client rosters. Check your current plan details inside the platform to confirm your slot allocation.
👥 Can I Use My OTTO Slot Across Multiple Client Accounts?
Each OTTO slot is tied to one active project at a time. On the Starter plan, you cannot run OTTO simultaneously on multiple client websites — only one site can be active under that single slot. If you manage several clients and need OTTO running on more than one domain at the same time, you will need to upgrade to a plan that includes additional slots.
🔄 Can I Switch an OTTO Project Between Clients?
Yes, you can reassign or swap which website is connected to your OTTO slot. Here is how to do it:
- Go to OTTO SEO → All Sites (SEO Automation) in the left sidebar (or navigate to /seo-automation-v3).
- Locate your active OTTO project and deactivate it to free up the slot.
- Create a new OTTO project and connect it to the new client's website.
- OTTO will begin onboarding and auditing the new domain.
Important: When you switch a slot to a new client, the previous client's OTTO session is paused. Any optimizations already deployed to the previous site remain in place, but OTTO will no longer actively monitor or automate that domain until the slot is reassigned back to it.
💡 Best Practices for Agencies Managing Multiple Clients
- Audit your client roster first. Identify which clients need active, ongoing OTTO automation versus those in a maintenance phase.
- Prioritize high-activity clients. Assign your available slots to clients with active campaigns or new site launches.
- Upgrade for concurrent coverage. If multiple clients need simultaneous OTTO automation, upgrading your plan is the most efficient solution — switching slots frequently can slow down optimization momentum for each client.
- Track projects in Reports. Use Reports (left sidebar → Reports, or /report-builder/projects-list) to monitor SEO progress across all client sites, even those not currently assigned an active OTTO slot.

🛠️ Summary: Key Things to Remember
- The Starter plan ($99/month) includes 1 OTTO slot — one active site at a time.
