What AEO Optimizer Pro is built to do.
Semrush gives you the data and monitoring layer. AEO Optimizer Pro builds the topical authority plan that drives the work — from cluster mapping to publish sequence to AI citation scoring.
From keyword research to a full cluster plan.
Semrush surfaces keyword opportunities and topic ideas. AEO Optimizer Pro takes the next step — generating the full pillar + cluster architecture, scoping every page, and sequencing exactly what to publish first for the fastest path to topical authority.
- Full cluster structure generated from a single topic input.
- Every page scored by authority impact before you write a word.
- Prioritised publish sequence — not just a list, but an ordered plan.
Audit your existing site. Find what's missing.
Semrush can show you competitor keywords you're not targeting. AEO Optimizer Pro maps your entire existing site to topic clusters, scores each cluster by completion, and identifies the exact pages to add — ready to drop into your publish plan.
- Import via GSC or XML sitemap — every existing URL mapped automatically.
- Cluster completion score so you know which topics need 2 pages vs a full rebuild.
- Competitor gaps mapped to your cluster structure, not a raw keyword list.
Score every page for AI citation potential.
Semrush doesn't have an AEO scoring layer. AEO Optimizer Pro rates each page in your cluster by its likelihood of being cited in ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity — and tells you exactly what to change to improve that score.
- AEO Fit Score for every page in your cluster plan.
- Guidance on what makes content citation-worthy for AI engines.
- Build authority that ranks on Google and gets cited by AI.
The topical authority playbook is being rewritten. Be part of it.
