🧩 What Can Atlas Brain V2 Do?

Atlas Brain V2 combines 16 specialized agents that work in a coordinated way.

Below is a full breakdown by area.

⚙️ Technical SEO (OTTO)

Atlas Brain connects directly to OTTO, SearchAtlas's technical SEO engine, to analyze and fix site issues autonomously.

What it can do:

• Run full technical site audits (crawl, issue categorization by severity: Critical / Warning / Info)

• Generate AI recommendations to fix:

  • Title tags and meta descriptions
  • Headings H1, H2, and H3 (length and structure)
  • Image alt text (in bulk)
  • OG and Twitter tags for social media
  • NLP terms and missing keywords
  • Structured FAQ content
  • Schema markup (JSON-LD: Article, FAQ, Product, BreadcrumbList, LocalBusiness)
  • Canonical tags and html lang attribute

• Deploy changes to production directly from the chat (requires OTTO Pixel installed)

• Roll back deployments if changes don't perform as expected

• Force site recrawls to get fresh data

• Detect and build Domain Knowledge Networks (DKN) for structured interlinking

❓ FAQs

What happens to my Agent V1 conversations?

💡 They are available in read-only mode inside the V2 interface. You cannot continue a V1 conversation, but you can review your full history at any time.

Can the agent affect my production site without my authorization?

⚡ No. Any action that modifies production data (deploying changes, publishing content, sending campaigns) requires your explicit approval via the approval panel.

What language model does Atlas Brain V2 use?

✅ The agent uses Claude Sonnet 4.5 as its default model, with the ability to route to GPT-4 or Gemini depending on the task type, through OpenRouter.

Does it work with any CMS platform?

💡 Yes, with native support for WordPress (publish, draft, schedule) and generic support for other CMS platforms (Webflow, Shopify, etc.) via configurable connectors. Deploying on-page SEO changes to production requires the OTTO Pixel installed on your site.

Can Atlas Brain write and publish content automatically without my review?

⚡ It can, if you explicitly request it. By default, the agent presents the results of each step (heading outline, draft, etc.) before proceeding, giving you the opportunity to adjust or approve.

How does Atlas Brain relate to OTTO?

Atlas Brain V2 transforms how SEO and digital marketing tasks are executed by combining planning, execution, and deployment into a single intelligent workflow. This ensures you can operate efficiently across multiple domains while maintaining full control through the Human-in-the-Loop approval system, allowing you to review and authorize critical actions before they go live.
