What is the simplest way to explain Adobe’s acquisition of Semrush?
The most urgent question CMOs are asking today is: how do I know what AI is saying about my brand, and what can I actually do about it? With the acquisition of Semrush, Adobe Brand Visibility can now offer brands a true end-to-end GEO strategy - from discovery to insight, action, and measurement. Semrush AIO brings the deepest GEO intelligence layer available: 213 million prompts tracked, competitive share of voice across every major LLM, and real AI search behavior data. Adobe handles activation, automatically identifying where AI misrepresents your brand and deploying fixes without additional support. Together, they give CMOs both the clearest signal and the strongest response. More details on the PR announcement.
How should I explain the relationship between LLM Optimizer and Brand Visibility?
LLM Optimizer is evolving into the broader Brand Visibility offering. Brand Visibility expands on LLM Optimizer by combining Semrush intelligence and AI visibility insights with activation and orchestration capabilities into a more complete, end-to-end solution. The product is expected to GA by early August.

What happens to active or in-flight LLM Optimizer deals and customers?
All LLM Optimizer customers and deals are migrated to Adobe Brand Visibility. For existing LLM Optimizer customers, there is no action required. Adobe is having close conversations with these customers, so they are aware of the exciting new capabilities and how to access and use them.
What happens to the existing LLM Optimizer trial motion?
Trial customers will be automatically migrated to a trial of Adobe Brand Visibility, no action needed. Those customers will get access to new capabilities such as the AI Visibility module, Prompt Strategy and Opportunity Workspace.
How does partner credit apply if an LLM Optimizer deal transitions to Brand Visibility?
As opportunities transition to Brand Visibility, partner participation and credit will follow Adobe’s standard model for Adobe-led offerings such as Brand Visibility.
Will partners see changes to how opportunities are tracked or managed during the transition?
No immediate changes are expected for partner engagement or opportunity tracking. As deals transition to Brand Visibility, partner involvement continues to follow standard Adobe practices.
Should partners continue positioning or progressing LLM Optimizer opportunities?
Yes. Partners should continue progressing all active LLM Optimizer opportunities. There is no need to pause or delay activity. Conversations should begin to reflect the transition toward Adobe Brand Visibility as the forward-looking solution. For new opportunities, lead with Adobe Brand Visibility, framing LLM Optimizer and Semrush AIO together, and do not position them as separate products.
How do Adobe and Semrush partner programs and participation relate to each other?
Adobe and Semrush partner programs operate as separate ecosystems today. There is no automatic conversion, alignment, or shared access between the programs.
- Adobe partners do not automatically receive access to Semrush partner benefits, resale rights, or participation in Semrush opportunities.
- Semrush partners do not automatically gain access to Adobe partner programs, benefits, or deal participation.
- Partners must independently meet the requirements of each program to participate in that ecosystem.
- As the Adobe and Semrush offerings evolve, there may be greater alignment between the programs. Any updates will be communicated through standard partner program channels.
Do partners need to join the Semrush Partner Program to access or sell Brand Visibility?
No. Brand Visibility is an Adobe product offered under Adobe SKUs. Partners can register opportunities and transact using standard Adobe processes, just as they would for any other Adobe offering. Brand Visibility effectively replaces the previous LLMO SKU, so no additional Semrush partner enrollment is required.
Do Adobe partners need to join the Semrush partner program to engage with Semrush capabilities?
Yes. Adobe and Semrush partner programs operate as separate ecosystems. Participation in Semrush-only opportunities that are not part of an Adobe Brand Visibility opportunity requires joining and complying with the Semrush partner program.
How does Adobe Brand Visibility relate to SEO?
Adobe Brand Visibility leverages select SEO signals from Semrush AIO to strengthen the GEO intelligence layer. It does not include the full set of SEO capabilities that Semrush broader platform offers.
How should I handle requests related to SEO services or support?
If a Semrush product is part of a wider Adobe opportunity including Brand Visibility, the Adobe account team will coordinate any required Semrush resources.
How does deal registration and partner credit work for Adobe Brand Visibility?
Adobe Brand Visibility follows the same deal registration process, rules, and eligibility criteria as LLM Optimizer. Partners should continue using existing workflows. Partner credit applies in line with standard Adobe partner program rules for Adobe-led offerings.
Can Adobe partners sell, register, or receive credit for Semrush products or services?
No. Semrush products and services are sold and managed through the Semrush ecosystem and are not transactable or registrable through Adobe partner programs. Adobe partners do not receive credit for Semrush opportunities unless they independently participate in the Semrush partner program, in which case participation is governed by Semrush, not Adobe.
Are there new incentives or benefits for Adobe partners related to Semrush?
There are no Semrush-specific incentives for Adobe partners today. For Brand Visibility, existing Adobe partner program rules apply. Any changes to incentives or program benefits will be communicated through formal partner program updates.
How will partner enablement content be developed and made available to partners?
Partner-facing enablement content for Semrush and Brand Visibility will be published to the Partner Experience Hub as it becomes available. This should be treated as the primary source for all partner-facing materials.
What demo assets are available to partners, and what is coming next?
As demo materials are finalized and approved, they will be published on the Partner Experience Hub. Additional assets, including more detailed walkthroughs and technical guidance, are expected closer to general availability.
Will partners have access to sandbox environments for Adobe Brand Visibility?
More information on partner access to Adobe Brand Visibility sandboxes will be shared closer to GA
