SEO, AEO and GEO in one pass. The same draft returns the same verdict.
About
A gate before publish.
Dokeo checks every draft against SEO, AEO and GEO rules and gives one verdict, ship or fix, in your app, your CI, your CMS or Claude.

FixWe gate our own blog. Scored 17 October 2026 with the same engine you get, glossary rules, balanced strictness.
17 content types
A changelog is not scored like a landing page. Type rules switch on per draft.
Reasons you can audit
Each flag names the check and the fix. Scoring has no model in the path.
Where you already ship
App, CLI, API and MCP today. A verdict in under 200 ms.
Why Dokeo exists
Drafting got cheap, and publishing did not. Three rules shape what we build.
A gate that runs after the draft is written
The job is ship or no-ship, one of five severities. Surfer and Clearscope stay useful while you draft. Dokeo runs after the draft is done.
Checked before it goes live
Block the bad piece before it ships, instead of finding out weeks later in a dashboard that it was never cited. Web app, webhook, CI, pre-commit and MCP run the same engine.
What is built today
We don't publish customer logos or testimonials until we have signed case studies. Integrations list what runs today. Planned work stays on the roadmap.
Where it sits in your pipeline
- 1
Draft
An AI agent, AI-assisted, or human-written. The gate doesn't know and doesn't need to.
- 2
Gate
Dokeo scores it in under 200 ms. Same input, same verdict. A pass goes through, a fail blocks the build.
- 3
Ship
Clean content goes live, so what reaches Google, ChatGPT, Perplexity and Claude has already passed the checks.
- 4
Prove
Watch tracks AI crawler visits and citations after publish, so you can see whether the piece got cited.
How it got here
2025 Q4
Started Dokeo
The first version was a 6-check gate for programmatic SEO traffic, built because nothing we found understood answer-engine optimization.
2026 Q1
Added AEO checks
ChatGPT started eating organic search and our clients could not measure the impact, so we shipped answer-engine scoring.
2026 Q2
Added GEO and multi-engine
Perplexity citations became a top referrer. Three engines, 17 content types, a full regression suite.
2026 Q3
Market benchmarks and MCP
MCP server, custom rules, multi-tenant workspaces and a credit system. Every check cites the industry study behind its threshold (Ahrefs, NN/g, Gong, Unbounce and more).
2026 Q4
Relaunched as the content quality gate
Dokeo does one job: it blocks content that won't rank or get cited, before it ships. Every number on the site is measured, and the homepage shows a real verdict from the gate on our own blog. Agents and the CRM and pipeline checks moved to Labs until they are ready.
The longer check list is in the docs. The security write-up is on its own page.
