AEM Sites Optimizer Preflight

The Preflight readiness dashboard {align="center"}

Preflight in AEM Sites Optimizer helps you validate and optimize pages before they go live by analyzing content and structure and surfacing opportunities with actionable recommendations. It is designed for authors, marketers, and developers who want to ensure pages are high quality, performant, and ready to publish while reducing rework.

You start Preflight from your authoring environment and select Analyze page to run its audits. An audit evaluates one aspect of your page, such as its metadata or heading structure, and Preflight groups related audits into categories, such as SEO and Accessibility. Preflight then reports a readiness score for the page, along with the opportunities it finds — the specific things you can improve, each with an actionable recommendation.
