• Part 1Building AI Agents That Actually Work for Enterprise SEO

  Agentic AI workflows fail without classified first-party data. Venkata Pagadala, AI Product Manager for Search at AT&T, classified 5.8 million queries, removed 3 million noise queries, and uses the resulting persona-based insights to build mockups that win leadership buy-in. He outlines a competitor-navigation and Wikipedia-driven L1/L2/L3 taxonomy that surfaces zero-search-volume, high-intent demand from Reddit, Quora, and YouTube, plus a UGC-based research framework that treats reviews, ratings, and brand response rates as primary inputs. He also covers persona-based query fan-outs as a replacement for single-prompt tracking, and documentation systems that let AI agents repeat classification at scale.

He covers documenting each solved problem in structured systems such as Obsidian or Notion, so AI agents can run the next classification. He also covers turning a manual solution into a repeatable system as soon as the problem is solved, and using voice input like Whisper Flow, since people speak about twice as fast as they type.
