Ahrefs shows you the data. We build the plan.

AEO Optimizer Pro does something different — it takes your topic and builds the full topical authority strategy: which cluster pages to create, what order to publish them in, and which ones will get cited by AI engines.

What AEO Optimizer Pro is built to do.
Ahrefs tells you the keyword landscape. AEO Optimizer Pro builds the cluster strategy, sequences the publish plan, and scores every page for AI citation potential — the planning layer Ahrefs doesn't have.
Turn data into a publish plan.
Ahrefs gives you keyword data, content gaps, and traffic estimates. AEO Optimizer Pro turns that kind of data into action — generating the full topic cluster architecture, scoring each page by authority impact, and sequencing exactly what to publish first.
- Topic clusters generated from a single topic — pillar + all cluster pages scoped.
- Every page ranked by its authority impact before you write a word.
- Publish sequence tells you what to build first, second, and third.

Start from your existing site.
Ahrefs can show you keyword gaps between you and competitors. AEO Optimizer Pro goes further — it maps every existing URL to a topic cluster, scores each cluster by completion percentage, and identifies exactly which pages to add to close the gap. No manual spreadsheet work.
- Import via GSC or XML sitemap — no manual mapping.
- Cluster completion score shows which topics are 2 pages from full authority.
- Gap pages added to your publish plan, prioritised by impact.

Optimise for Google and AI engines.
Ahrefs doesn't have an AEO layer. AEO Optimizer Pro scores every page in your cluster by its potential to be cited in ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity — so you're building authority that works across both traditional search and AI-generated answers.
- AEO Fit Score for every page — not just a site-wide average.
- Actionable guidance to improve AI citation potential before publishing.
- Optimise for the full discovery stack — organic rankings AND AI citations.
