Conductor, the end-to-end enterprise AEO platform, has unveiled its next-generation answer engine optimisation (AEO) innovation at C3 2026, its flagship conference in New York City.
The announcement marks an evolution in how brands compete for share in AI-generated responses, setting a new standard for enterprise AEO measurement and action.
During the keynote presentation, Conductor CEO Wei Zheng introduced the company’s vision for the next era of AEO. “Being mentioned by AI is no longer enough. The brands that win will be the ones AI recommends when customers are ready to make a decision,” said Zheng.

“But getting recommended takes more than visibility data. Enterprises need to know what market they’re competing for, how they are represented, and what to do to improve. That’s the future we’re building at Conductor, connecting intelligence, action, and measurable AEO impact.”
Introducing a New Standard for Winning in AEO
Conductor’s innovations address that challenge by establishing a new KPI to measure a brand’s share of recommendation in AI and a complete system that automates the path from surfacing actions that will improve authority to measuring impact, all within a unified AEO platform.
Key announcements include:
- Recommendation Share: A new KPI that measures how strongly AI recommends a brand over its competitors to reveal whether AI champions the brand or steers buyers elsewhere, guiding actionable insights to better position the brand in the AI response.
- Custom Market Index: A standardised approach to defining a brand’s AEO market, grounded in real search demand. Solving the uncertainty many teams face when deciding which topics and prompts to track by providing a clear framework for how to align to business strategy. It delivers a reliable foundation for identifying opportunities and making smarter AEO investments.
- Conductor Actions: The industry’s first system of record for turning AEO intelligence into measurable impact. Actions identifies the highest-impact opportunities—from optimising content, to improving technical foundations, to building third-party citations—and tracks what actually works, so enterprises get a smarter way to execute and continuously improve their AEO strategies.
- AEO-Powered Writing Assistant: New enhancements bring expanded AEO signals directly into content creation, informing stronger content briefs and more effective content optimised for both traditional search and AI agents.

Building the Future of Enterprise AEO
These innovations build on Conductor’s accelerating investment in enterprise AEO and its mission to help brands adapt as AI fundamentally changes how customers discover and choose brands.
They help enterprises determine where to compete, what to prioritise, how to execute, and whether their efforts are making a measurable difference.
