How are enterprise SEO teams rethinking hiring and role definitions in the age of AI?
How are you viewing who you're hiring? And like, do you feel like the type of employees or type of roles. Like have you noticed a shift in how you're thinking about? Like team member growth within the company, like has that shift?
Yeah, and it it it depends on the role. Um so Fractal does really two things, uh data journalism for brands and then PR for brands, where we're pitching the content that we created for the brand to journalists. The PR part has some aspects of it that are
What AI‑driven processes does Fractal use for data‑journalism projects and how do they cut timelines?
helped with AI a great deal. So like the research parts of it, um, like understanding who you're pitching and what they're what they would be interested in and so on matters. But at the end of the day, it's still a high touch thing where it works much better to have a human write an email to another human than it does to try and like bulk automate some AI process to do that. That sort of thing can be automated to a certain extent, but like the the primary things that we would have hired on before are still sort of the same. It's it's about like not are you the best at leveraging AI, but like do you understand this process and like can you write a good pitch email and that kind of thing.
Time for a one-minute break to hear from our sponsor, Previsible. So you're looking for SEO help, then you got a couple of options. You could start replying to spam from agencies that claim they can get you to rank number one on Google.
Why does Fractal still rely on high‑touch human outreach despite AI automation?
You can pay an hourly rate for a consultant who will inevitably nickel and dime you with hourly charges, or you can work with a cookie cutter agency to quickly launch a strategy-less project with low success rate. None of those sound very good. Now do they? Well, that's where Previsible's integrated consulting model comes in. Previsible draws from a collective 40 years of SEO and digital marketing experience to unlock your organic growth opportunities. They build custom solutions that combine strategy, technical expertise, content, and reporting to effectively operationalize SEO for your business. Pre-visible's four-stage approach ensures that your SEO programs thrive. By starting off with a strategy first approach.
Then they support you in your efforts to create quality content, help you identify technical issues, and most importantly, they'll work with your cross-functional teams to integrate your SEO strategies to make sure that your SEO budget actually drives results, not just your agency's bottom line. So join brands like Yelp, eBay, Canva, Atlassian, Square, all who rely on the SEO consultant.

On the on the data journalism side it's changed a great deal because now there's a massive difference between someone who can leverage AI really well and someone who can't. Um so like even someone who's maybe really technically talented, uh, so has a background in statistics, has a background in programming, can write scrapers, can do all the technical things that you would need to do to do a very sophisticated Dana journalism project. Maybe they could do that, but it would take them three weeks or a month to do it. Now we have a agents and uh tools like cursor that can help manage a project start to finish, including all of those inherent complexities.
