Optimize Existing Content with the AEO Agent

Updated 

The AEO Agent helps you improve the visibility of your existing blog content in AI-powered answer engines by analyzing it against a predefined set of Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) signals. Instead of manually reviewing visibility gaps and creating content briefs, you can use the AEO Agent to receive actionable optimization recommendations directly within LLM Insights.

Scenarios

The following scenarios for optimizing current content using the AEO are outlined below:

  • Optimize underperforming blog content: Improve existing blog pages that are not being frequently cited by AI answer engines by identifying and addressing AEO signal gaps.

  • Address content quality weaknesses: Detect issues such as missing specifications, weak value propositions, outdated information, and keyword gaps, and receive actionable recommendations to strengthen content.

  • Improve competitive visibility: Analyze pages where competitors have stronger answer-engine visibility and uncover opportunities to make your content more comprehensive and citation-worthy.

  • Scale content optimization efforts: Reduce the manual effort required to review content gaps, interpret insights, and create optimization briefs for content teams.

  • Maintain AI-ready content: Continuously evaluate owned content against AEO best practices to keep existing pages aligned with evolving answer-engine expectations and visibility signals.

Accessing the AEO Agent

The steps are listed below:

  1. Navigate to LLM Insights and go to the LLM Insights Records screen.

  2. Click View Report against an active report.

  3. Examine the visibility opportunities outlined in the report, noting that a certain number of recommendations for optimization will be highlighted, any of which can be utilized.

  4. Navigate to Agents and select Content Optimisation Suggestion.
