Suggestions scans for FTC compliance
Suggestions now audits your site for FTC-regulated language and flags any potential violation with the specific associated citation. Additionally, every dealer site now generates a llms.txt file automatically so AI search engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity can index your inventory and pages. Vehicle detail pages now output complete structured data for fuel type, drive type, and transmission, giving AI tools what they need to match shoppers to specific vehicles.
FTC compliance scanning in Suggestions

Suggestions now audits your site for FTC-regulated language and flags every page where copy could create a compliance risk.
Each violation card shows the specific text that triggered the flag and the rule it violates.
What this includes:
- Federal level FTC compliance regulation monitoring
- State specific FTC compliance regulation monitoring
Example: 16 CFR § 463.3(b) violation for stating “Best Prices”
Automatic llms.txt for every dealer site
Every dealer site now generates and serves a robust llms.txt file at /llms.txt. Motive builds the file from your page inventory and updates it automatically when pages change, with no manual setup required. AI search engines use llms.txt to understand what a site contains, which improves how your inventory and pages appear in results from tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini.
VDP schema now includes fuel type, drive type, and transmission
Vehicle detail pages now emit accurate values for fuel type, drive type, and transmission in their structured data markup. Previously, these fields were present in the schema but left empty when the inventory record did not map cleanly to the schema.org vocabulary, so AI-powered search tools could not use them to match shoppers to specific vehicles. Now the values populate every time, so queries like "AWD trucks near me" or "hybrid sedans in stock" can surface vehicles on your site.
What this includes:
- Fuel type (gas, hybrid, electric, diesel)
- Drive wheel configuration (AWD, FWD, RWD, 4WD)
- Transmission type (automatic, manual)
- Exterior and interior color
Improvements
- Accessory packages can now appear as individual line items in the vehicle pricing stack. Dealers with multiple packages see each one listed separately with its own label and price, rather than a single combined accessory entry.
- Shoppers can now click any point on the SRP price range or monthly payment slider to set a filter value directly, without needing to drag from the endpoints.
- Blog publish dates are now editable in Admin so operators can set or correct the date on any post, including posts migrated from other platforms where the date was written as the migration timestamp.
- "Generate with AI" in the page editor now refines existing content rather than replacing it, so operators can use it to improve copy in place without losing work already on the page.
- Dealers can now set a dedicated disclaimer for the chat lead form, separate from the site-wide default. The new "Chat disclaimer copy" field and "Show Chat Disclaimer" toggle live in Copy > Disclaimers.
- ReCAPTCHA is now on by default for all dealers, reducing spam lead submissions without requiring a manual toggle per account.
- Logos uploaded in Admin are now automatically resized to the correct display dimensions, reducing page load time on sites where oversized logo files were being served.
- Redirect destinations can now be set by selecting an internal Motive page rather than entering a static URL, so redirects stay accurate if the destination page's URL changes later.
- Dealer logo alt text now uses the dealer's name so the correct name appears in Google search results beneath site links.
- Window sticker pages (/inventory/window-sticker/) are now excluded from search engine crawling, preventing crawl budget from being spent on pages with no SEO value.
Fixes
- Mercedes-Benz OEM compliance suggestions were displaying the diagnostic description instead of corrective copy; they now return the actual corrected text that dealers can apply directly.
- Dropdown menus in the page editor now appear above other elements on the page. Previously, z-index conflicts caused insert dropdowns and other menus to render behind content blocks, making them unusable.
- Blog images migrated from WordPress sites now come through at full resolution. Previously, the migrator picked up thumbnail URLs from srcset attributes instead of the full-resolution source, re-hosting images at thumbnail dimensions.
- GA4 and ASC events now both fire on custom form submission when both are enabled. Previously, a logic conflict caused only one event to dispatch per submission.
- Duplicate structured data schema blocks were appearing on some location pages; each page now renders a single schema block.
