The American Association of Nurse Anesthetists (AANA) new Continued Professional Certification (CPC) core modules website has been presented with a silver award by Graphic Design USA’s (GDUSA’s) Health + Wellness Design Awards.

Our stream of consciousness

Structuring & writing content for AI

Retrieval is like securing a job interview. It gets your content in the room, but it doesn’t guarantee selection. Structure is what determines whether your content gets “the job,” that is, whether it’s deemed “useful” enough to be included in a response.

Optimizing content for AI retrieval

Most content never makes it into an AI-generated answer. Not because it’s bad, but because it’s never found in the first place. Before an AI system can use your content in a response, it must retrieve it. If you don’t win the retrieval battle, your content never even makes it onto the field.

Why AEO matters

After years of research, debate, experimentation, pilot projects and global hype, generative AI platforms like Google Search, Claude, Perplexity and ChatGPT are now transforming how people find information online.
