Optimizely Unveils GEO-Ready CMS for AI Search Visibility
Optimizely , the digital experience platform (DXP) provider, has introduced the latest innovations to its CMS with new features designed to help increase discovery in the AI era. As AI redefines how people search and discover content, Optimizely is helping brands solve a problem they didn't know they had: invisibility.
Its newly enhanced CMS turns websites from content warehouses into visibility engines, built for discovery in the age of AI.
Online behaviour is fundamentally shifting, with website traffic predicted to drop 25% by 2026 as generative AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini are increasingly used as a search engine.
This shift has accelerated the need for Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO), a new approach to structuring content so it can be surfaced, summarised, and selected by AI agents. To compete in this model, content must be trustworthy, machine-readable, and strategically structured.

'Your website isn't broken—it's just invisible,' said Shafqat Islam, President of Optimizely. 'The entire business of model of the web is being upended, and how marketers generate demand or sell products is being transformed.'
'Marketers need to make sure their websites serves two audiences – humans who demand speed and clarity, and machines that extract and summarise the content. If your CMS isn't structured for AI discoverability, your content won't be found.'
'With the combination of our new CMS features and power of Optimizely Opal, we help brands move faster, create content smarter, and scale for a world where machines, not just people, are consuming your content.'
To ensure brands get visibility while navigating a dual-audience world, Optimizely's CMS will include new capabilities across three areas: page optimisation, site-wide optimisation, and GEO analytics.
To be surfaced in AI summaries, content must be well-structured, trustworthy, and machine-readable—down to each page. Optimizely supports better page optimisation with: Q&A Field Generation – Auto-generates question-and-answer pairs based on page content.
GEO-specific Metadata – Populates titles, descriptions, and EEAT (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness) elements for generative engines.
Markdown Summary Generation – Injects page-level summaries for improved AI scanning and indexing.

AI agents don't browse—they scan. A top-down site structure ensures content gets indexed, summarised, and surfaced. Optimizely simplifies site-wide optimisation with: llms.txt Auto-Generation – Automatically signals which pages should be indexed by LLMs and bots.
GEO Topic Templates – Generates topic-specific pages designed to rank in AI-generated summaries.
Bulk Metadata Population – Applies GEO metadata in bulk, including to existing content.
AI agents are reading and referencing content, often without triggering a click. Optimizely brings visibility into this layer with: GEO Health Index – Scores page against AEO and GEO best practices.
Crawl-to-refer Ratio – Measures how often AI bots crawl a brand's site vs. refer to your site.
Crawl Rate by Model – Shows which LLMs are hitting a brand's site most frequently.
As AI decides what gets seen before a click ever happens, content that isn't structured for machines won't make the cut. With Optimizely, marketers can now stay visible in a world where discovery starts with AI.

From budgets to layoffs: UAE businesses trust AI with big calls
Image credit: Getty Images Business leaders and executives in the UAE are demonstrating unprecedented trust in artificial intelligence (AI), according to new research released by technology services provider A significant 79 per cent of UAE business decision-makers now trust AI to allocate budgets across their organisations, decisions that could directly influence individual compensation. The same percentage expressed confidence in AI's ability to manage talent, including recruitment, performance evaluation, and redundancy planning. Additionally, 80 per cent of respondents were comfortable with AI overseeing critical health and safety operations within their companies. Read- This marks a substantial shift in mindset, indicating a new era where AI is no longer seen as a tool for back-office automation, but as a trusted decision-maker in high-stakes areas. Beyond business: AI as a life advisor Remarkably, this trust in AI extends well beyond the workplace. According to Endava's research, four in five respondents said they would trust fully automated systems to make personal career decisions, from advising on promotions to suggesting salary trajectories and job changes. The same percentage expressed confidence in AI for personal financial planning, including investments and retirement strategies. Even health recommendations, traditionally the domain of human professionals, saw similar levels of trust. David Boast, General Manager, UAE and KSA at Endava, believes this reflects more than just technological optimism. 'Trust is the critical enabler of any AI strategy,' he said. 'The UAE's clear national vision, its youthful and tech-savvy population, and its digital-first mindset are combining to give organisations a unique opportunity to innovate with confidence.' While other regions remain cautious, often bogged down by concerns over job displacement and AI ethics, UAE businesses appear ready to move forward boldly, supported by a workforce that is not just accepting of AI, but eager to embrace it. Designing emotionally intelligent AI As trust in AI grows, experts say the next step is making systems more emotionally responsive, especially when dealing with sensitive or stressful situations. 'Ultimately, the path to trust isn't through forcing AI into the foreground, but by designing it to quietly empower the experiences consumers already value,' said Jessica Constantinidis, Innovation Officer – EMEA at ServiceNow. 'By embedding AI into service architecture in a way that's invisible but impactful, organisations in the UAE can deliver emotionally intelligent experiences that meet high expectations, without sacrificing efficiency.' Despite the growing trust in AI, many consumers still crave human connection. The research reveals that 68 per cent of UAE consumers prefer to speak with a real person, not due to a resistance to technology, but because they value empathy and nuance. This preference is especially strong when emotions are heightened, such as during financial disputes or service failures. The hybrid model: Best of both worlds The study makes it clear that while customers want fast and efficient service, they also seek reassurance. A full 85 per cent of UAE consumers say they prefer self-service options, yet their confidence in AI remains fragile when it comes to emotionally charged or complex issues. 'The answer lies in embracing a hybrid model,' Constantinidis explained. 'AI systems should not be standalone tools but part of a broader support ecosystem. For routine tasks, automation can deliver speed. But during moments of high stress, there must be intelligent pathways to human support.' For example, AI should be able to detect distress signals, not just through language, but through behavior patterns, such as repeated actions or extended time to resolution. If a customer isn't getting results within two interactions, the system should seamlessly escalate the issue to a human agent. 'That's not a failure of AI, that's smart design,' Constantinidis said. 'Too often, companies bolt AI onto existing policies without rethinking the experience. True transformation means reimagining customer support with hybrid experiences built from the ground up.'

The Middle East must get ready for a US-China digital arms race
A starting gun fired this summer, but many of us didn't hear it. On July 18, when the US unveiled its National AI Action Plan, it wasn't just another policy document. It was a declaration, signalling the start of what could be humanity's ultimate race: a global contest to build the digital foundations of the 21st century and, in the process, redefine the very meaning of national power. For centuries, nations have vied for territory, resources and influence. This new competition is of a different order entirely. It is a sprint to embed artificial intelligence into every sector, every institution and every decision-making layer of society. AI is no longer a far-off concept from science fiction; it has become the invisible infrastructure of our present, the operating system of modern life. With its plan, the US has made its intentions clear: it is mobilising to win. The American strategy is breath-taking in its scale and speed. This is not a cautious roadmap but a full-scale mobilisation of capital, talent and government will. The plan accelerates the National AI Research Resource, a flagship initiative backed by an initial $110 million to arm the nation's researchers with the raw computing power needed to innovate. Yet this public push is dwarfed by the staggering ambitions of the private sector. Elon Musk's xAI is building a $10 billion 'Gigafactory of Compute', a cathedral of processing power designed to run on 100,000 of Nvidia 's most advanced chips. Not to be outdone, Microsoft and OpenAI are reportedly planning a $100 billion data centre project codenamed 'Stargate'. These are the moonshots of our time. And their impact is already filtering down into the machinery of government, where AI is being used to slash medical backlogs for veterans and help reduce the nearly 43,000 annual roadway deaths. This isn't just automation; it's a fundamental rewiring of the state into an entity that can learn and adapt in real-time. But America is not running this race alone. For every move the US makes, China has a powerful and increasingly sophisticated countermove, often executed with a different philosophy. While the US champions a public-private partnership model, China's state-led industrial policy delivers breakthroughs with stunning speed. Consider the shockwave sent through the robotics world this year by Unitree, a Chinese firm that launched a sophisticated humanoid robot for just $16,000. It was a watershed moment, transforming advanced robotics from a high-cost industrial tool into something approaching a mass-market product. This focus on tangible, real-world applications is complemented by a brilliant software strategy. While American giants often keep their most powerful models proprietary, Beijing-based DeepSeek AI recently released its powerhouse DeepSeek-V2 model completely open-source. In doing so, it invited the world's developers to build on its technology, a clever play to win the hearts and minds of the global tech community. In this global digital race, there may be no prize for second place However, this digital arms race is running headfirst into a very physical wall: energy. AI is insatiably power-hungry. By 2030, Nvidia's AI servers alone are projected to consume more electricity annually than the entire country of Finland. Mr Musk predicts that within a year, the primary constraint on AI development will shift from a shortage of chips to a shortage of electricity. Here, the competition becomes one of concrete and power grids. The US AI sector is projected to require 50 gigawatts of new power capacity by 2028. In 2023 alone, China added more than 400 gigawatts of new capacity, more than the rest of the world combined. The lesson is stark: winning the AI race isn't just about designing algorithms in the cloud; it's about having the industrial might to power them on the ground. For those of us in the Middle East, the sound of this starting gun should echo with a particular urgency. Regional ambitions are high. The UAE has pioneered world-class Arabic language models and the use of AI in government applications, while Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund is reportedly planning a $40 billion fund to invest in AI. But the actions of the US and China reveal a new truth: ambition is no longer enough. Success now demands execution at a national scale, requiring the sovereign capabilities – computation, talent and especially energy – to sustain it. The global race has begun. It is a contest not just for technological dominance, but for the right to shape the future of trade, security and society itself. And in this race, there may be no prize for second place.
