We gate our own blog. Scored 17 October 2026 with the same engine you get, glossary rules, balanced strictness.

Dokeo is a content quality gate: it runs deterministic SEO, AEO and GEO checks on every draft before it ships, with no black-box review.

How is this different from an editor checklist?

A checklist is judgment calls a human still has to apply. Dokeo runs the same deterministic checks on every draft and returns one of five severities - consistent across writers, freelancers, and LLM output alike.

  • The same draft always returns the same verdict, safe to block a CI pipeline on.
  • Every FAIL names the specific check that failed and why.
  • 100 free scans a month, no credit card, same gate as production.

If this is your week, you care a lot

  • ✗Editors can't review every draft when volume outpaces QA
  • ✗Surfer / Clearscope help writers - they don't stop a bad piece from shipping
  • ✗You invest in SEO, then ChatGPT and Perplexity never cite you
  • ✗Two posts cannibalize the same keyword and nobody catches it until traffic drops

What the gate gives you

  • One five-severity verdict before publish - not another score to argue about
  • SEO + AEO + GEO in a single pass, including your own published corpus
  • Works after any writer or LLM - Surfer, ChatGPT, freelancers, all of them
  • Optional webhooks and CI when ops is ready; useful from day one in the browser

How the gate runs on a draft

The same four steps for every piece, whoever or whatever wrote it.

  1. Step 1
    Submit the draft

    Paste it in the browser, send it through the API, or let CI do it. Any writer, any LLM.

  2. Step 2
    Run the checks

    19 deterministic SEO, AEO and GEO checks run in under 200 ms, tuned to the content type.

  3. Step 3
    Get one verdict

    Ship or fix, with the exact sentence that failed each check and why.

  4. Step 4
    Fix and re-scan

    Edit the flagged lines and scan again. The same draft always gets the same verdict.

Different job from Surfer or Clearscope

They help you write. Dokeo decides if it ships. Keep your brief tools; add the gate after the draft is done. Many teams do both.
