Conductor AI: What's New and What's Next

We move fast. This page is your running log of everything that's shipped in Conductor AI — the features, the improvements, and the upgrades that matter to your workflow. Bookmark it, check back weekly, and never wonder 'wait, when did that change?' again. 

This week's updates give you more control over how prompts are generated, how often topics are tracked, and what slice of your site you're actually reporting on. 

AI SEARCH PERFORMANCE 

Custom Instructions for Topic & Prompt Generation  

You can now guide how Conductor generates topics and prompts — add required terms, persona weighting, tone preferences, seasonal context, and more. Instead of editing generic AI output, you get prompts that reflect your strategy from the start.

Monthly Tracking  

Monthly is now a tracking cadence option alongside daily and weekly. Use it for broader strategic topics that need consistent coverage but don't need to be on your radar every week. First collection runs within a day of setup; after that, it's the beginning of each month. 

Page Groups Filter  

Filter AI Search Performance by specific page groups instead of your whole site. Ideal for teams that own a section of the website and want reporting that reflects their actual scope — not everything else. 

This week’s updates are focused on two things: more flexibility in how you analyze your market, and making it easier to build agentic workflows on top of Conductor data. 

AI SEARCH PERFORMANCE Choose What to Display: Chart, Data Grid, or Both When adding an AI Search Performance report to a workspace from an Explore modal, you can now choose to include a chart, a data grid, or both. Show exactly what you need — nothing more, nothing less. 

Build Your Own Market View 

You can now define your own market by selecting the specific competitors that matter to you. The market share calculation updates automatically based on your selection, and a dynamic pie chart makes it easy to visualize your positioning and share with stakeholders. 

Top 10 Competitors in the Overview 

Your top 10 competitors and their performance trends are now visible in a single view. No more toggling between reports to get the competitive picture. 

DEVELOPER EXPERIENCE 

Everything You Need to Build Agentic AEO Workflows 

conductor.com/docs is now your one-stop shop for building on top of Conductor data — MCP Server, Data API, and a Template Gallery with ready-to-use LLM skill templates. If you're building agentic workflows or integrating Conductor into your own tools, this is where to start. 

A big one this week — AI Search Performance 2.0 is now live for everyone, plus a handful of updates that make day-to-day management faster. 

AI SEARCH PERFORMANCE 

AI Search Performance 2.0 Is Live for Everyone 

As of April 13, AISP 2.0 is available across all accounts. Expect faster performance, improved usability, and more actionable insights — with your full historical data carried over automatically. No action needed on your end.

• Explore our refreshed AI Search Performance tutorials, including two new reporting workflows.

Admin Email Notifications for Pending Approvals  

Admins now get an email when prompts or topics are waiting for approval. Conductor checks multiple times a day and only sends a notification when there's actually something to review — no noise, just the signal you need to keep things moving. 

New AI Search Engine: Grok (Auto)  

Grok joins the lineup of AI search engines you can track in Conductor. It automatically switches between live search and static knowledge depending on the query. Supports country and city/state-level tracking. Cost: 1 credit per AI response. 

Personas & Intents Charts — Updated  

Both trend charts now highlight your top 5 performers by default. Less noise, faster insight — and you can still explore beyond the top results when you need to. 

Workspace Widgets Are Now Editable  

Edit widget titles, descriptions, and time periods directly from your workspace. Especially useful when sharing dashboards with stakeholders who need reports framed in their own language.
