AEO Content AI Studio

AEO Content AI Studio connects your WordPress site to the AEO Content AI Studio platform for AI-powered content management and AI visibility auditing.

What is AEO? AI Engine Optimization is the practice of structuring web content so AI answer engines — ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews — can discover, parse, and cite it. While SEO focuses on search rankings, AEO focuses on getting your content into AI-generated answers.

What This Plugin Does

Content Publishing — AEO Content AI Studio reads your existing posts, optimizes them with AI, and publishes updated or new content back to your site via a secure REST API. Categories, tags, featured images, and FAQ schema are handled automatically.

Audit Report — View your site’s AI visibility score directly in the WordPress dashboard. The audit evaluates 28 weighted criteria across three tiers — Content Substance, Content Organization, and Technical Plumbing — scored from 0 to 100. Each criterion includes detailed findings and a prioritized fix list.

Activity Log — Every API interaction is logged with timestamps, status, and details. Filter by command or status, export to CSV, and auto-cleanup keeps logs manageable.

External Service

This plugin connects to the AEO Content platform at aeocontent.ai for the following purposes:

• Registration (on initial setup): When you save your API Key, the plugin sends your site URL to https://www.aeocontent.ai/api/v1/plugin/register to register the connection. No content or personal data is transmitted.
• Heartbeat (periodic): The plugin sends your site URL, plugin version, WordPress version, PHP version, and enabled features to https://www.aeocontent.ai/api/v1/plugin/heartbeat. This keeps the platform in sync and delivers any pending updates. No personal data or site content is transmitted.
• Audit Report (on demand): When you view the Audit Report page, the plugin fetches your site’s audit data from https://www.aeocontent.ai/api/v1/audits/{site-slug}. This returns scoring data and recommendations generated by the platform. Audit results are cached locally for 1 hour.

All communication uses HTTPS and is authenticated via API Key. The platform’s Terms of Service and Privacy Policy apply to data processed on the platform side.

Privacy

The plugin stores the IP address of incoming API requests in the activity log for security and diagnostic purposes. Log entries are automatically deleted after 90 days. No cookies are set, no users are tracked, and no analytics are collected on the frontend.
