Total publishable assets your team ships monthly , articles, posts, pages, decks.
The Balanced split follows the 2026 GEO content model. The other two tilt toward authority-building or bottom-funnel capture.
A planning guide built on the 2026 GEO content model. Flagship pieces are the citation anchors; derivative content amplifies them; product and news capture intent and recency. Adjust to your team's reality , the ratios matter more than the exact counts.
How this works
AI engines reward Information Gain , genuinely novel content , and cite original research far more than derivative summaries. Yet most teams invert the ratio, flooding channels with restated posts. The model here keeps a flagship core of first-party data and frameworks, surrounds it with derivative amplification that references it, and reserves room for product and recency plays.
Counts are distributed with largest-remainder rounding so they always sum to your total. Treat the ratios as the takeaway, not the precise integers.
How to use it
- Set your monthly content capacity.
- Get a citation-optimised mix across flagship, derivative, product and news.
- Rebalance toward the original research that gets cited.
Frequently asked questions
What content mix do AI engines cite most?
Original research and data get cited far above their share of output, while derivative posts get produced most and cited least. The planner turns your monthly capacity into a mix weighted toward the flagship research and comparison content engines actually quote.
How much original research should I publish?
Most programs under-produce it. Even one flagship data study a quarter earns links and citations across many downstream pieces. The planner shows the ratio of flagship, derivative, product and news that fits your capacity.
