Search hasn't just gotten harder to navigate — it has fundamentally changed. AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews are now the first stop for a growing share of buyers and researchers. Organic click-through rates are declining as AI-generated summaries intercept traffic before it reaches your site. And for most digital teams, the unsettling reality is this: they have no clear picture of how their brand appears in those answers, or whether it appears at all.
The pressure doesn't stop at search. Content teams are expected to produce more, faster, without growing headcount. PDF accessibility backlogs — in government, education, and commercial organizations alike — are growing faster than manual remediation services can clear them. Across thousands of enterprise organizations, the workflows that govern content creation, search visibility, and document accessibility have become the slowest, most manual, and most disconnected parts of the digital operation.
Siteimprove’s Spring 2026 launch is our direct response to that reality. We’re introducing two new agentic capabilities: the PDF Remediation Agent and the Writing & Optimization Agent. Each one targets a workflow where enterprise teams tell us they’re stuck. Together, they advance a premise that’s at the core of how we build: that content quality, search discoverability, and accessibility compliance belong in the same platform, connected by the same data.
Here’s what we’re shipping — and why it matters now.
AEO Advanced Insights: Know exactly how your brand shows up in AI search
GA — Available now for all customers
AEO Advanced Insights launched in April, and we’re continuing to build momentum on top of it with the Spring '26 Release.
Most teams trying to improve their AI search presence are working without a baseline. They don’t know which content is being cited in AI answers, which queries trigger competitor mentions instead of their own, or how their overall AI visibility has trended over time. Advanced AEO Insights closes that gap — giving you a clear, measurable view of how your brand appears across leading AI answer engines, where you’re winning, and where competitors are taking ground you haven’t yet claimed.
How Advanced AEO Insights works
- Tracks your brand’s mention rate and citation rate across AI answer engines including ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews
- Surfaces competitor AI visibility data alongside your own so you can benchmark share of voice and identify where gaps exist
- Connects AI search performance back to specific content, giving your team a direct line from visibility data to the optimization decisions that move the needle
Writing & Optimization Agent: From brief to publish, faster
GA — Available now for all customers
Content volume demands are outpacing what most teams can produce without introducing risk — to brand consistency, accessibility compliance, and search performance. The Writing & Optimization Agent brings AI-assisted content creation directly into the Siteimprove.ai platform, not as a standalone writing tool but as part of the same environment where you track performance, govern quality, and monitor your AEO visibility. The result is content that’s faster to produce, structured for AI discoverability from the start, and validated against accessibility standards before it reaches the CMS.
How Writing & Optimization Agent works
- Generates content briefs and draft copy aligned to your brand voice, topic authority signals, and AEO performance data from within the platform
- Connects output directly to your search and governance data so new content is optimized for AI and traditional search from the moment it’s created, not retrofitted after the fact
PDF Remediation Agent: Accessibility compliance at the speed of AI
GA — Available now for all customers
PDF accessibility backlogs are one of the most persistent compliance challenges in enterprise digital governance. Traditional manual remediation is slow, expensive, and doesn’t scale — organizations managing hundreds or thousands of documents have faced wait times measured in months, not days. The PDF Remediation Agent automates that process at scale, producing WCAG- and PDF/UA-conformant output without the overhead of third-party remediation services. For teams in government, education, or commercial organizations with large document portfolios, this represents a fundamentally different model for achieving and sustaining compliance.
The PDF Remediation Agent helps you:
- Remediate PDFs directly inside Siteimprove: no new tool that you need to be trained in
- Reduce the manual work needed to make a PDF accessible.
- Apply consistent, repeatable fixes across every document you remediate.
- Get a PDF back with a clear list of any remaining items that still need human review.
We’ve also introduced Expert PDF Remediation services, which you can read more about in our press release.
What comes next
You’ll see the impact of the Spring ‘26 Release the first time your AEO team can answer “Where do we show up in ChatGPT?” with a dashboard instead of a manual spot-check. You’ll see it when a content writer produces a draft that’s already structured for AI discoverability — without a separate SEO review cycle to catch what was missed. And you’ll see it when an accessibility or legal team clears a PDF backlog that used to take quarters to move through in a fraction of the time.
These capabilities share a common premise: that compliance, discoverability, and performance are not separate disciplines to be managed with separate tools. They belong in the same workflow, connected by the same data. When accessibility improvements also improve AI crawlability — and when content governance also drives search performance — the outcomes compound in ways that fragmented point solutions never could.
