Content Creation
Turn AI-cited sources and customer reviews into content ideas, AI drafts, and published pages.
What Content Optimization Is
AI engines cite external sources — blogs, communities, news, review platforms — when they compose answers. The Optimize → Content Optimization page shows you which sources AI answers about your brand actually cited, and turns that evidence into recommendations for the content you should create next.
The page has two tabs.
- Content Ideas: recommends content work based on sources AI engines cited in the last 30 days and your customer reviews. (Pro and above)
- Cited Content: inspect the sources cited in AI answers that mention your brand, by channel. The source list is visible on every plan.
Cited Content Tab
Lists the sources cited in AI answers that mention your brand. For each source, AEKO checks whether your brand name actually appears in the saved title and body — so you know immediately whether the page AI cited really talks about you.
Filters
Narrow by date range (7/30/90 days or all, default 30), channel (Naver Blog, Tistory, Reddit, Korean communities, news, review sites, wikis, and more), and brand presence (found in title / found in body / brand not found / page text unavailable).
Source cards
Each card shows the channel badge, brand-presence badges, citation count, a saved-content excerpt with the brand names found, and the prompts where the source was cited (with AI platform badges). Clicking the title opens the original page in a new tab.
AI brief Pro and above
Select View AI brief to preview the source evidence and review scope inside AEKO. Then copy the brief or open it in Claude or Codex.
Content Ideas Tab Pro and above
Recommends content work as cards, grounded in the last 30 days of citation data and your customer reviews. Ideas aren't stored; they're recomputed from fresh evidence every time you open the tab. Dismissed ideas are not recommended again.
Every recommendation carries an evidence badge. AEKO doesn't invent ideas from guesses. Each badge states a fact verified in stored data.
Evidence badges
- Competitor found: a registered competitor was confirmed in the cited page's text and your brand is absent — the most urgent gap
- Brand not found: the cited page's text was read and your brand isn't there (shows Partially checked when only some pages were readable)
- Page text unavailable: the channel can't be read (e.g. Reddit), but the number of times AI cited this source for your tracked prompt is a verified fact
- Customer context: grounded in recurring questions and concerns from your connected customer reviews
Filters
Narrow by action type (community engagement / new content / media pitches / platform & data), channel (Naver Blog, Tistory, Reddit, news & magazines, review platforms, wikis, YouTube, and more), and evidence badge.
Idea cards
Each card shows the source favicon, venue, an action-oriented title (answer this thread, pitch this publication), and an evidence summary (citations · sources · last cited). View evidence expands the related questions, the sources to review, and any competitors confirmed in them.
Dismiss
Hide ideas you don't care about with the X in the card's top-right corner. Dismissed ideas won't be recommended again.
Preparing a draft with an AI brief
Select View AI brief on a card. AEKO builds a brief from the latest evidence, with the goal, verified sources, constraints, deliverables, and checks.
The brief opens inside AEKO first. Review it, then choose Copy brief, Open in Claude, or Open in Codex. Each action uses the exact brief shown on screen.
Before you publish
Before posting a community reply, check the page status and community rules, and disclose your brand affiliation. AEKO prepares the draft — whether and how to publish is always your decision.
Creating Your Own Ideas
You don't have to wait for recommendations. The New content idea button opens a two-step form.
- Step 1 — Idea setup: pick the channel and topic
- Step 2 — Data sources: choose the scope (brand-wide or specific products), keywords, language, and extra instructions
Idea History and Publish Status
Ideas you create yourself appear in the history table at the bottom of the page. Each row lets you manage the status (plan created / completed) and inspect the work with View brief.
When a draft is published to your store blog or AEKO Shop, the history row shows a saved, published, or failed badge for each destination. If publishing fails, review the error in the publishing workflow you used before trying again.
New to the agents connection?
Previewing, copying, and opening a brief in Claude or Codex does not require an agents connection. For actions that use AEKO tools, such as store publishing, see the Agents Setup guide.
