AI Search Readiness, Content Momentum & Event Waitlisting

Your next customer might never land on your homepage. They'll ask an AI assistant a question, skim a single answer, and make up their mind in seconds. If your brand isn't in that answer, you weren't in the running.

That shift shaped everything in this Good Bards release. New SEO and AI search readiness tools show you how visible you really are. The Content Hub tells you what to write next. A new AI recommender and social media analytics sharpen every decision, while upgrades to the Action Queue and Event Management help your team act on them faster.

SEO, GEO and AEO: Track Organic Visibility and AI Search Readiness

Search is no longer just ten blue links. This release gives you a clearer view of how you show up across both traditional search and AI-driven answers:

• Organic Visibility: Track how your pages perform in organic search, so you can see which content is earning traffic and where you're losing ground.

• AI Readiness for GEO and AEO: Ranking on Google is only half the battle now. AI Readiness scores your pages for Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), which is how likely tools like ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity are to cite you. It also scores Answer Engine Optimization (AEO), which is how well your content answers questions directly for featured snippets, voice search and AI Overviews. You get clear guidance on what to fix first, so your brand shows up wherever your customers search.

Content Hub: Content Research, Planning and Trending Pages

The Content Hub now covers more of the content lifecycle, helping you decide what to create and when:

• Research & Plan: Research topics and map out your content plan in one place, so every piece starts with a clear purpose.

• Momentum: See which of your pages are trending and get suggestions for the next best move, whether that's refreshing, promoting, or building on what's already working.

AI Capabilities: Smarter Recommendations and Social Media Analytic

Our AI keeps getting sharper, with better recommendations and a clearer read on your social performance:

• New Recommender System: A rebuilt recommendation engine surfaces more relevant suggestions across Good Bards, helping you decide what to do next with less guesswork.

• Social Media Analytics: Understand how your social posts are performing, with AI-powered insights into what's resonating with your audience.

Advanced Action Queue: Workflow Stages and Alerts

The Action Queue now does more than list tasks. It helps you organize work and stay on top of what matters:

• Stages: Group actions into stages so you can see where each piece of work sits and move it forward step by step.

• Alerts: Get notified when an action needs your attention, so nothing important slips through the cracks.

Event Management: Slot Management, Waitlisting and Event Analytics

Event Management continues to grow with features built for busier, more popular events:

• Slot Management and Waitlisting: Set capacity by session or time slot, and let attendees join a waitlist automatically when a slot fills up.

• Event Analytics Revamp: A redesigned analytics view gives you a clearer picture of registrations, attendance, and engagement, before, during, and after your event.
