Eroding SEO positions due to vast amounts of outdated legacy content. PropertyGuru had not found a way to perform an economical content refresh for their legacy content.
“Contentoo delivered spectacular Marketing ROI improvements with its use of augmented AI. It has given us a sustainable edge over the competition.”

CMO
Business performance for PropertyGuru is very much driven by its ability to generate quality traffic at low costs. Strong SERP rankings are of critical importance, and PropertyGuru had developed a strong capability towards that internally. With millions of pages under management, though, …
Google rankings had started to erode, and PropertyGuru’s existing content operations were not able to scale within manageable costs. Initiatives to develop enhanced content generative tools internally had failed and the team realised it needed access to more advanced capabilities.
Specifically, PropertyGuru was looking for a solution that kept its SEO-critical content ‘always fresh’ and ‘brand-safe’. Brand safe meant that content would be factually correct, persuade the right customers to convert and be rated favourably by leading search engines.
PropertyGuru is Asia’s #1 PropTech company and is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: PGRU). The Group operates a portfolio of leading real estate marketplaces, Fintech solutions and data & software (SaaS) across Southeast Asia, serving more than 50 million users monthly. The company is backed by KKR, TPG, Peter Thiel Capital and NewsCorp.PropertyGuru’s real estate marketplaces are leading in each of their markets: Singapore, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand. That leadership is rooted in superior property listing volumes and associated organic (Google) positions.
Across the markets, PropertyGuru has more than 3 million live listings and manages more than 10 million pages structured along location, property type, price brackets, etc., as well as guides and news content to help visitors in their property search journey.
The majority of that content is created by people: real estate agents and editors. Some of it is machine-generated through content engines developed in-house.
…specifically around PropertyGuru’s key content parameters. The core of the model was OpenAI’s chatGPT model, augmented by a bespoke NLP (Natural Language Programming) model that leveraged existing, relevant contextual data from a predetermined set of sources. The objective of the solution was to enhance PropertyGuru’s content quality for a pilot volume
of about 100 thousand pages and to be able to do so at pre-set repeat intervals. Contentoo also designed a ‘human intervention switch’ that would moderate AI-generated content at scale when necessary. KPIs for success were organic traffic, conversion rate and reduced content costs (see below).
The essential challenges PropertyGuru faced were:
Brands experience relentless pressure to grow. Often, actual growth delivered is suboptimal because of poor content along the conversion funnel.
