Semrush App in ChatGPT Enables SEO Prompts
Semrush has released a dedicated ChatGPT app that lets users request SEO insights and generate comprehensive reports directly in the OpenAI chat interface using natural-language prompts. The integration leverages Semrush data to provide traffic insights, competitor data, keyword analytics, backlink information, and real-time trends. Reports can be produced within the chat, enabling on-demand analyses without switching apps. The app is MCP server-compatible, allowing insights to be used with other AI tools such as Claude or Cursor through a shared model context protocol. Adobe, which recently acquired Semrush, positions generative AI as a driver of brand visibility and GEO for marketers. In testing, users with Free accounts may not yet see the linking option, but support is expected to arrive soon. The feature underscores a broader trend of AI-powered, in-chat SEO workflows in MarTech.

Slack Launches ChatGPT App Integration
Slack has released the ChatGPT app for Slack, integrating OpenAI’s ChatGPT into the workspace. Announced at Dreamforce 2025, the integration lets users chat with ChatGPT in a dedicated Slack sidebar and leverage Slack’s Real-Time Search API to query conversations. Users can ask questions, get quick summaries of message threads, draft content (including social posts), and search Slack messages to rediscover discussions. Semantic search is available, but gated to customers on Business+ or Enterprise+ plans with the AI feature activated. The app can connect Slack messages to ChatGPT for broader context in chats and brainstorming. However, availability is initially limited to the European Economic Area, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom due to connector restrictions; users outside these regions or without a paid subscription will need access via paid plans. Salesforce had previously announced a beta version of this integration about six months earlier.
Adobe launches Brand Visibility for GEO
Adobe announced Adobe Brand Visibility on June 17, 2026: a unified product within Adobe CX Enterprise that combines Semrush’s AI visibility intelligence with Adobe’s agentic content optimization (Adobe LLM Optimizer) to help brands improve presence across AI-driven search and chat surfaces. The solution leverages nearly 300 million real-world AI search prompts and Semrush’s SEO corpus (28.5 billion keywords and 43 trillion backlinks) to report mention frequency, audience reach, competitive share-of-voice, prompt performance and content gaps across ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, Microsoft Copilot and Perplexity AI. Integrated with Adobe Experience Manager and Adobe analytics, the product surfaces prioritized recommendations, enables rapid content updates, and ties GEO actions to business outcomes. Adobe cited large increases in AI-driven traffic (e.g., +1,324% to U.S. retail sites) and positioned the tool as a closed-loop GEO workflow following its Semrush acquisition.
EU Classifies ChatGPT as Search Engine; Brands Need AI SEO/GEO Tools
On August 31, 2026, the European Commission formally designated ChatGPT a "Very Large Online Search Engine" under the Digital Services Act, placing it in the same regulatory category as Google and Bing. With over one billion weekly active users, ChatGPT's classification underscores the shift of product discovery toward AI-generated answers. Azoma, an Agentic Commerce Optimisation platform, released an analysis showing that each AI agent (ChatGPT, Gemini, Amazon Rufus, Walmart Sparky, etc.) cites different source mixes, meaning no single AI SEO or GEO strategy works everywhere. Brands are advised to adopt tools that offer prompt-level visibility tracking, citation-source analysis, competitive benchmarking, and optimization workflows for content and product data. Traditional SEO alone is insufficient because AI platforms produce synthesized recommendations before users visit brand sites. The EU decision legitimizes AI search, making AI SEO and GEO essential for brand visibility.
