Native AEO execution inside the editor. The most mature adapter on the platform. Compatible with Yoast, RankMath, and All in One SEO — this is a companion plugin, not a replacement. Install in 5 minutes; first AEO score in 60 seconds after.
The WordPress audience already runs an SEO plugin. Yoast, RankMath, All in One SEO — these tools have decade-plus track records, mature feature sets, and significant practitioner inertia. Asking WordPress site owners to switch SEO plugins to add AEO would be hostile to existing operations and unnecessary.
AIVZ doesn't compete with your SEO plugin. AIVZ runs alongside it — handling the AEO half of the work that your SEO plugin doesn't touch, while preserving compatibility with the SEO operations you've already built.
When AIVZ generates a meta description optimized for AI citation, it writes to the meta-description field your SEO plugin already manages. AIVZ's optimization is invisible to the SEO plugin's UI but applied to the page output.
When AIVZ adds JSON-LD schema markup (FAQPage, Speakable, Article variants), it doesn't conflict with your SEO plugin's existing schema output. AIVZ's schema appends to the page rather than overwriting; both coexist.
The 93-factor scan, the AI Visibility Score, and per-platform readiness scoring run independently. AIVZ's analysis surface and the SEO plugin's analysis surface coexist in the editor without interfering with each other.
Most agencies and in-house teams running both AEO and SEO operations install AIVZ alongside their existing SEO plugin and use both in parallel. The dual-check workflow is genuinely effective because the two plugins optimize for genuinely different outcomes — running both in parallel covers more surface than either alone.
The Live status on /platforms means the WordPress adapter supports the full canonical execution scope — every native fix capability AIVZ runs ships through the WordPress plugin. Eleven distinct capabilities surface in the editor and the dashboard.
Automatically applied for the seven primary schema types (Organization, Article, FAQPage, Speakable, Person, HowTo, Product) with field-level validation against the schema.org spec. Coexists with SEO-plugin schema.
Per-page meta descriptions generated from structured content analysis; one-click apply to the Yoast / RankMath / AIOSEO meta-description field.
Extracts question-answer pairs from existing content; reformats into AI-citation-optimized FAQ blocks; renders with FAQPage schema markup. Available as a Gutenberg block, shortcode, or template embed.
Front-loaded direct-answer summary blocks for L3 (Extractability) optimization. Configurable position (top of post / after H1 / custom) per content type.
Site-level llms.txt manifest auto-generated from the content inventory. Updates on a schedule; can be triggered manually.
Verifies AI bot access (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, GoogleOther) and surfaces unintended blocking from CDN/WAF defaults, hosting providers, or security plugins.
XML sitemap inclusion of structured-data-rich pages; identification and optional removal of low-AEO-value URLs from sitemap surfacing.
Runtime validation of all on-page schema; flagging of malformed JSON-LD, missing required fields, or schema-version compatibility issues.
Embeddable score badges for sidebars, footers, About pages. Useful for sites surfacing their AI Visibility Score as a credibility signal.
Embedded in the WordPress editor (Gutenberg + Classic Editor). Surfaces recommendations and direct-execute buttons in the same UI where authors edit content.
Delegated to the user's configured LLM via MCP. Output validated against the AEO factor that triggered the work; surfaced for editor approval before publish. (Pro tier and above.)
Schema markup is the single highest-leverage AEO factor on most WordPress sites — and the area where AIVZ's WordPress adapter goes deepest. Seven primary schema types with full field-level validation, coexistent with any schema your SEO plugin already generates.
