Cloudflare blocks AI crawlers accessing content by default

Cloudflare, Inc. a connectivity cloud company, announced it is now the first Internet infrastructure provider to block AI crawlers accessing content without permission or compensation, by default. Starting today, website owners can choose if they want AI crawlers to access their content, and decide how AI companies can use it. AI companies can also now clearly state their purpose – if their crawlers are used for training, inference, or search – to help website owners decide which crawlers to allow. Cloudflare’s new default setting is a step toward a more sustainable future for both content creators and AI innovators.

AI companies will now be required to obtain explicit permission from a website before scraping. Upon sign-up with Cloudflare, every new domain will now be asked if they want to allow AI crawlers, giving customers the choice upfront to explicitly allow or deny AI crawlers access. This significant shift means that every new domain starts with the default of control, and eliminates the need for webpage owners to manually configure their settings to opt out. Customers can easily check their settings and enable crawling at any time if they want their content to be freely accessed.

Grammarly to acquire Superhuman

Grammarly, an AI assistant for communication and productivity, announced its intent to acquire Superhuman, an AI-native email app that helps users respond faster and save hours every week on their email communications. This acquisition accelerates Grammarly’s evolution into an AI productivity platform for apps and agents, positioning email as a critical communication surface in the company’s vision of an agentic future.

Email is the number-one use case of Grammarly for professionals, with the AI assistant helping to revise over 50 million emails per week across more than 20 email providers, including Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail, and Superhuman.

Superhuman brings more than productivity gains to the acquisition. Building on its impressive adoption, Superhuman is defining the future of email and evolving into a comprehensive workspace for agents. Now imagine taking that efficiency even further with AI agents that triage your inbox, schedule your meetings, perform deep research over all your content, and write full emails in your own voice and tone. Imagine those agents reasoning, problem-solving, incorporating detailed context about your work, and interacting with other systems and agents. This future platform will enable scenarios where users can work with multiple agents simultaneously.

RWS acquires Papercup’s IP

RWS, a content solutions company powered by technology and human expertise, has acquired the intellectual property behind Papercup’s AI dubbing technology – known for its unique ability to reproduce a speaker’s tone, pace and emotion faithfully.

The acquisition is a strategic step in RWS’s wider plan to embed advanced AI across its technology stack, accelerating its ability to support enterprise clients with multilingual video, voice and content localization across multiple formats and channels.

Papercup’s technology combines voice synthesis, thousands of unique AI voices and editorial tools for human language specialists to fine-tune the output – offering control and quality output comparable to human dubbing by actors and artists, at a fraction of the cost and turnaround time.

While AI-only dubbing tools often fall short on critical elements like timing, voice consistency and speaker identification, RWS’s hybrid approach puts humans in the loop to optimize tone, pacing and accuracy – enabling video dubbing that’s both scalable and brand-consistent.

Enterprise clients can expect to unlock value from video content that was once too expensive or complex to localize. Papercup’s technology will now sit alongside RWS’s existing suite of language technologies – including Language Weaver for neural machine translation and the Trados platform.

Deepgram launches Voice Agent API

Deepgram, a voice AI platform for enterprise use cases, announced the general availability of its Voice Agent API, a single, unified voice-to-voice interface that gives developers full control to build context-aware voice agents that power natural, responsive conversations. Combining speech-to-text, text-to-speech, and large language model (LLM) orchestration with contextualized conversational logic into a unified architecture, the Voice Agent API gives developers the choice of using Deepgram’s fully integrated stack (leveraging Nova-3 STT and Aura-2 TTS models) or bringing their own LLM and TTS models. It delivers simplicity for developers and the controllability enterprises need to deploy voice agents.

Deepgram’s Voice Agent API provides a single, unified API that integrates speech-to-text, LLM reasoning, and text-to-speech with built-in support for real-time conversational dynamics. Capabilities such as barge-in handling and turn-taking prediction are model-driven and managed natively within the platform.

While the Voice Agent API streamlines development, it also gives teams control over performance, behavior, and scalability in production. Built on Deepgram’s Enterprise Runtime and model ownership across the voice AI stack, the platform enables model-level optimization at every layer of the interaction loop for precise tuning of latency, barge-in handling, turn-taking, and domain-specific behavior in ways not possible with disconnected components.

Adobe announces LLM Optimizer

Adobe announced Adobe LLM Optimizer, an enterprise application that enables businesses to gain new relevance where consumers are embracing generative AI-powered interfaces to engage brands. With Adobe LLM Optimizer, teams can stay ahead of shifting consumer behaviors and remain top-of-mind in the AI era. A suite of features will enable businesses to monitor AI-driven traffic and benchmark brand visibility, while receiving recommendations that can be quickly deployed on their digital properties to improve discoverability, engagement and conversion.

LLM Optimizer will be able to identify owned content (details on a website for instance) that is being leveraged by AI-powered interfaces to deliver responses to user queries. This provides teams with a real-time pulse on how their brand is showing up across browsers and chat services.

A recommendation engine detects gaps in brand visibility and suggests improvements across both owned (web pages, FAQs) and external (Wikipedia, public forums) channels — based on attributes prioritized by LLMs including high-quality, informative content from authoritative sources.

LLM Optimizer is built to support existing workflows across SEO leads, content strategists, digital marketers and web publishers, and supports enterprise-ready frameworks such as Agent-to-Agent (A2A) and Model Context Protocol (MCP), to integrate LLM Optimizer with third-party solutions and partners.
