"AI Overviews will kill SEO!" Everyone kept saying.
Here is what actually happened when we embraced Google's Generative AI instead of fearing it:
124 to 1,280+ Impressions in Google's Generative AI features within just 90 days (900%+ Growth)!
While many are panicking about zero-click searches, Google Search Console's new Generative AI report proves there is a massive opportunity if you know how to adapt.
Here are 4 actionable strategies we used to get cited in Google's AI Search:
✅ Structuring Content for AI Skimmability:
AI models love direct answers. We redesigned our content with clear H2/H3 tags, concise bullet points, and key takeaways at the top of the page.
✅ Targeting Conversational & Long-Tail Queries:
People ask AI full questions, not 2-word keywords. We shifted our keyword research toward conversational, intent-driven queries.
✅ Doubling Down on E-E-A-T:
AI summarizes facts, but it cites expert opinions and original data. Adding unique insights and author authority made a huge difference.
✅ Proper Schema Implementation:
We ensured structural data was flawless so Google's AI could understand entity relationships seamlessly.
💡Key Takeaway:
SEO isn't dying; it's evolving into Generative Engine Optimization (GEO). The rule is simple: Stop optimizing just for algorithms; start optimizing for user intent and AI understanding.

Can AI understand your rough sketches?
ChatGPT just added a new sketch feature to its new Images 2.5 model, so I tried it with extremely simple sketches and short prompts to see how well it could understand my intention.
And honestly, I actually like it!
This can be helpful especially when you already have a specific pose or composition in mind and want to quickly turn that rough idea into something more refined.
If you’re curious, I included a quick process video in the comments.
Do you think this new feature could be useful in your workflow?
So cool
Absolutely. The ability to translate a rough sketch into a refined visual while preserving the intended pose, composition, and creative direction could make the ideation process much faster. It feels especially useful for designers who want to communicate an idea visually before spending time refining every detail. Definitely a feature worth experimenting with in a real workflow.
This is a great experiment! The sketch to refined visual pipeline could seriously speed up early ideation. Curious how it handles more abstract or complex sketches.
Agent products resist normal product marketing. There's no single interface to screenshot and the category vocabulary has gone generic, so a feature list communicates almost nothing.
We built Heron's explanation as a four-beat scroll that runs the agent's actual loop. The model appears and is watched. Violations surface with plain language and a real IBC clause. An edit is applied after approval. The system learns the firm's standards.
Pacing was the main design problem. Each beat needed enough scroll distance to register as a separate action, without the section becoming so long that people bail before the payoff. The sequence carries the technical detail that would otherwise sit in a spec table.
The four-beat scroll is a smart way to make the agent’s loop feel tangible—much clearer than a static feature list. The restrained visual system gives the interaction room to breathe.
