v3.8.0

MINOR
August 12, 2026

The Content page loads a page at a time instead of every article you have ever written, paid plans get the connection and article allowances they paid for, and the Labs now tell you which findings a fix cannot move instead of offering one that changes nothing.

✨ New Features

📄

The Content page is paginated

Content now loads one page of articles at a time, with Previous and Next, and the heading still shows your real total rather than the number of cards on screen.

  • •Measured before the change: 32 articles came to 920 kB on every visit, which projects to 28 MB at a thousand articles
  • •The grid reads ten fields and never the article body, so most of that was fetched and thrown away
  • •Each profile group shows how many articles that profile has, not how many are on the current page — so the number does not shrink as you page forward
  • •Changing a filter returns you to page one, instead of leaving you past the end of a shorter list
🎯

The Labs say which findings a fix cannot move, and why

When a tool reports five issues and offers two fixes, it now lists the other three with the reason each was withheld.

  • •Q&A format coverage is mostly the share of headings phrased as questions, and fixes never rewrite a heading — your table-of-contents links are built from them
  • •Structured data awards five of its fifteen points for JSON-LD, which belongs in the page head rather than in the article, so ten is its real ceiling from the text — an article at 10/15 is finished, not failing
  • •A GEO issue the analyzer itself classified as needing a human is no longer sent to a model
  • •This is the answer to "I approved the fixes and the score did not move": the points you are missing may be in a dimension a rewrite cannot reach, and now the screen tells you
📚

Documentation for the features that had none

Thirteen new articles, covering every screen in the product. The AEO Lab, the GEO Lab, Content Audit, Content Refresh, Competitor Gap, the Bulk Queue, Repurpose, My Sites, SEO Performance and the Research Library had no documentation at all.

  • •Every one of the 67 screens in the dashboard is now described in at least one article, and a check in the build keeps it that way
  • •New: how a Lab finding becomes an approved section rewrite, and what happens to an article that is already published
  • •New: why a Lab tool says it is not enabled for your workspace, and how to turn it on
  • •The AEO Visibility Score article lists all six dimensions, what each one actually counts, and the two that a rewrite cannot move

🐛 Bug Fixes

Paid plans were being enforced at the Starter allowance

The Integrations page showed an Enterprise account a two-site limit with the Add button disabled, automation offered every package one article a day, and the dashboard told everyone their content limit was ten. All three read the plan from a snapshot written once at signup and never updated.

Ranking keywords failed for any workspace with keyword research

The Ranking Keywords list and the profile analytics that includes it were failing outright. A keyword record is stored as an object and was being read as a string.

Profile analytics no longer reads your whole library to count it

The content and publishing figures on a profile analysis are computed in the database now. Same numbers, verified against the old calculation on real data, without loading every article to add them up.

The workflow results page stopped sending every version of every article

It attached a full snapshot of each article for every revision ever made, and used only the count.

⚡ Improvements

A build check for reads with no ceiling

Any new customer-facing query that grows with your usage and has no limit now fails the build, with an escape hatch that requires a written reason at the call site.

A build check for documentation coverage

A new screen with no documentation, or an article missing from its section index, is now visible rather than discovered months later.

v3.7.0

MINOR
August 11, 2026

The Labs used to report a score and leave you to act on it. Thirteen tabs across SEO, AEO and GEO can now propose a surgical fix for the section a finding belongs to, for you to approve — and the panel tells you which site the article is on and whether the live copy is behind.

✨ New Features

🔧

Propose and approve, on thirteen tabs instead of two

Every tab that reports on one of your stored articles can now fix what it found. Proposing writes nothing; you read the before-and-after for each suggestion and approve the ones you want.

  • •SEO Lab: Validation
  • •AEO Lab: Content Optimizer, Query Alignment, Fact Density, Visibility Score, Simulation
  • •GEO Lab: Citability, Authority, Snippets, Entity Alignment, Readability, Structured Data, Competitive
  • •Each fix rewrites ONE section, which is what makes it safe on an article that is already published
  • •Tabs that take a competitor domain, a URL or a keyword rather than your article say so, instead of offering a control that cannot act
📤

The panel answers "if I approve this, what happens?"

It names the site the article is published to, links the live post, says whether publishing will update that post or create a new one, and says whether the live copy is behind your edits.

  • •Approving updates the article here. Your live page is unchanged until you push it
  • •The push updates the existing post in place — same post, same URL, no duplicate
  • •It sends the status the post is already in, so an article you had deliberately unpublished is not put back online because you fixed a sentence
  • •Where the status cannot be determined safely, no one-press push is offered and you are sent to the article's own publish dialog
📋

The SEO Lab has an article picker

Content Validation and Similarity Check now let you pick one of your articles instead of pasting text, which is what the AEO and GEO tabs already did.

  • •One picker shared by all three Labs, so they cannot drift apart
  • •Similarity Check has one on each side — comparing two of your own articles is how you find them competing with each other
  • •Editing the text box after picking clears the selection, so a fix can never rewrite one article using findings from another
📊

Generated articles get tables, lists and quotes where the topic supports them

Articles were pure prose. They now include a comparison table, a data table, an ordered sequence or a pull quote when the material genuinely calls for one.

  • •Every structure has a threshold and a refusal: two columns of sentences is not a table, and a continuous explanation is not fragmented into bullets
  • •Zero structures is a legitimate outcome for a conceptual topic
  • •Cell values are never invented — an unknown figure reads "Not stated"
  • •Charts are deliberately not attempted: the publishing path has no chart primitive, so a data table is asked for instead — which is also the form search and answer engines extract

🐛 Bug Fixes

Competitor Gap Analysis answered "Failed to analyze" for every domain

It always had. The keyword endpoint it called does not exist; only the path was wrong.

Switching between repurposed versions showed the wrong body

The version list changed but the text underneath kept the first version you had opened.

Pushing an imported article back could re-upload its cover image every time

And it lost the record of what had already been sent, so "is the live copy behind?" was permanently unanswerable for imported articles.

⚡ Improvements

A bigger navigation with icons, grouped into sections

Twenty-six flat links became six collapsible sections. The Labs' tab bars now wrap instead of clipping the twelfth tool off the edge.

Reddit as a second publishing target

Connect an account, publish, and push updates — Reddit supports editing a post, so a corrected article can be corrected there too. Scoped to your own profile and subreddits you moderate.

v3.6.0

MINOR
August 10, 2026

Dark mode, on by default, with a toggle in the navigation and a follow-my-device option in Settings. Building it surfaced four contrast defects that had been in the light theme all along, including a chart series nobody could see.

✨ New Features

🌙

Dark mode

The whole application, dark by default. Toggle it from the landing navigation or the dashboard header.

  • •Settings → General → Appearance has Light, Dark and Follow my device
  • •Follow my device changes with your operating system, live, without reloading the page
  • •The theme is applied before the page paints, so there is no flash of the wrong theme
  • •Verified by rendering nineteen screens in both themes and measuring the contrast of every element that carries text

🐛 Bug Fixes

Error and warning text was unreadable in the light theme

Two colours used on 162 places between them had no readable variant. They had always been below the accessibility threshold on the cream background.

The primary chart series was invisible

The default line and bar colour was a near-white acid green on a light background, used in 41 places.

The legal pages were dark text on a dark page

Terms, Privacy and the rest never received the redesign, so they rendered with the old dark styling on the light site.

Re-publishing an article created a second post instead of updating the first

Publishing the same article twice left two posts on your site. It now updates the post it created.

Cover images sometimes drew a camera

The image prompt named a photographer, which the image model read as a subject.

⚡ Improvements

Billing is reachable from the navigation

It had no entry point of its own — the only way in was a link inside the Integrations page. Settings now has one tab bar covering General, Integrations, Billing & Plan, API and Team.

The account menu works

Profile and Settings in the account menu did nothing at all.

The pricing buttons on the landing page work

They had no handler. Signed in they take you to your plan; signed out, to registration with the plan preselected.

v3.5.1

MINOR
August 9, 2026

Import an article from WordPress, improve it here, and push it back to the same post. The whole cycle now works end to end, and the Sections editor works on imported and generated articles.

✨ New Features

📄

Read the article before you import it

Opening an article in My Sites now shows the full article — headings, paragraphs, lists and images — instead of an empty preview.

  • •The body is fetched from your site on demand, so what you preview is exactly what gets imported
  • •Categories, tags, author and featured image come with it
  • •An article you have already imported offers "View imported content" rather than importing it twice
🔄

Push your improvements back to the same post

Publishing an imported article updates the original post on your site instead of creating a second copy, and the update is now recorded.

  • •Works from the article page and from the end of the Improvement Wizard
  • •Shopify articles update in place too — they used to be duplicated on every publish
  • •The published URL and the publish history now appear on the article, so you can see and re-open what went live
  • •If your site refuses the update, you are told — the wizard used to close on its success screen
🧩

Imported articles behave like the ones you generate here

Everything that reads an article now reads an imported one correctly: the Improvement Wizard, SEO scoring, export, repurposing, social snippets and link suggestions.

  • •The Improvement Wizard analyses the article text — it was reading the page markup, so it found no headings
  • •Scheduled publishing sends the full article body
  • •An article that is live on your site is shown as published in your library, not as a draft
  • •Re-importing an article to pick up changes made on your site keeps the article intact
📝

The Sections editor works on every article

Adding, deleting and reordering sections now works on imported and generated articles, and the article body updates with them.

  • •Adding a section used to report success and then not appear
  • •Deleting or reordering used to fail with "section not found"
  • •Editing a section now updates the article everywhere, not only when publishing

🐛 Bug Fixes

Competitor Gap Analysis works

It answered "Failed to analyze competitor" for every domain because it called an SEO data endpoint that does not exist. It now returns the keyword gaps, and says specifically when the data provider is the problem.

Drafts and private posts appear in My Sites

Requests to your site were not being authenticated, so only publicly visible posts were listed and the article count was wrong.

A wizard fix is no longer applied and then ignored

On imported articles the improvement was saved in one place and read from another, so the article did not change.

Whether your local edits are ahead of your site is now accurate

The indicator always said "no local changes", even straight after rewriting an article.

⚡ Improvements

Bigger, clearer navigation

The sidebar section headings are larger and each carries an icon, and the links themselves are a size up.

Repurpose shows the version you clicked

Selecting a different version now changes the content, not just the heading above it.

Publishing sends HTML, never raw markdown

Some publish paths could send the article as markdown, which showed as literal ## and ** on the live page.

v3.5.0

PATCH
August 9, 2026

A grouped, collapsible sidebar; clear error messages in place of "[object Object]"; and fixes to Content Audit, Repurpose, SEO Performance and My Sites.

✨ New Features

🧭

Grouped navigation

The sidebar's 26 links are now organised into six collapsible sections, with only the one you are working in expanded.

  • •Create, Optimise, Library, Publish, Measure and Manage, with Dashboard pinned at the top
  • •The section containing the page you are on opens automatically
  • •A marker shows which collapsed section holds your current page
  • •Every section is keyboard operable and announced to screen readers
♻️

Repurpose: open any version you have generated

Previously generated versions are now clickable and open in the preview, and the preview names the platform it was written for.

  • •Opening an article you have already repurposed shows the newest version straight away
  • •The version you are reading is marked in the list
  • •The preview heading names the platform — LinkedIn, Medium, Email or Twitter
📈

SEO Performance explains itself

When the table is empty it now tells you which Search Console property was read, how many rows Google returned and how many matched your articles.

  • •Distinguishes "nothing indexed yet" from "traffic that does not match your articles"
  • •States that the data is read live from Search Console each time, not stored

🐛 Bug Fixes

Error messages no longer read "[object Object]"

Across the app, a failed request now shows the reason the server gave. Competitor Gap Analysis was the most visible case.

Content Audit no longer reports a score it could not measure

Auditing a single article URL used to produce a Site Health Score of 0 from zero crawled pages. The audit now looks at the whole site that URL belongs to, falls back to auditing that one page, and tells you when it could not read anything at all instead of scoring nothing.

My Sites lists your articles again

The article list asked WordPress for a post status it does not accept, so every site showed "0 articles" and a WordPress API error. It now loads your published posts, and drafts and pending posts can be selected explicitly.

SEO Performance page title

The page heading showed an internal label instead of its name.

⚡ Improvements

AEO Lab and GEO Lab tab bars

The twelve tools in each lab were in a single row that clipped the last entry with no indication more existed. The bar now wraps so every tool is visible, and the selected tool is readable and announced rather than shown by colour alone.

Keyboard and screen-reader access

Navigation sections, lab tabs and the repurpose version list are all operable by keyboard and announce which item is current.

v3.4.0

MINOR
August 7, 2026

Automation was inventing article topics from a keyword with no date and no search behind it, which is how a post about a two-generation-old phone reached a live site. Articles gained a working table of contents. The plans were repriced against measured cost.

✨ New Features

🔗

Every article has a table of contents, and its links work

Automation-published articles had none at all, and the ones the wizard produced had links that pointed at headings that did not exist.

  • •One implementation builds both the links and the heading anchors in a single pass, so they cannot disagree
  • •Duplicate headings get distinct anchors — two "FAQ" sections used to send every link to the first
  • •Nothing is added to an article with fewer than two headings

🐛 Bug Fixes

Automation wrote about the wrong year, and about products two generations old

The topic was invented from a bare trending keyword using the model's training data — no date, no search — and the research step then confirmed the wrong premise it had been handed. Topic creation is now grounded in a dated, recency-filtered search before the title exists, and an ungrounded run is forced to an evergreen topic rather than guessing at news.

The writer never received the research

Research reached the keyword and outline steps and stopped there, so the article itself was written from training data filtered through an outline. Both the wizard and automation were affected.

Every source URL from the research step was being discarded

Citations came back in a shape the parser did not read, so the sources rendered as empty links.

Literal ### appeared in published articles

Headings inside a quote block were shipped as raw text. Measured on ten live posts: every one of them had two or three.

Published articles showed their title twice

The article's own heading was included in the body as well as the post title.

Twelve images were generated per article against a budget of two

Images are the most expensive part of an article and the section-image loop had no limit, so every plan was six times over the allowance it was priced on.

⚡ Improvements

Pricing that matches what the plans cost to serve

Every tier was repriced against measured cost — API, infrastructure, storage and payment fees — in the product and in Stripe together. Anyone on an old price keeps it.

The pricing on the landing page is the pricing you are charged

The public page described plans that no longer existed, promised one tier as unlimited when it is capped, and hid the real top tier entirely. A check now fails the build if the page and the plans disagree.

Cover images look like photographs

The image instruction asked for a concept and got stock-art; it now asks for a concrete scene in photographic language.

v3.3.0

MINOR
August 6, 2026

The product could not send email at all — password recovery and team invitations answered success and sent nothing. Your WordPress and Shopify credentials were stored unencrypted. Screens that could not load their data were claiming there was none.

✨ New Features

✉️

Email works

Password recovery, team invitations, payment-failure notices and usage warnings are delivered. The blocker was a hard dependency on a single vendor, so the transport is now provider-agnostic.

  • •Password recovery completes end to end: request, email, reset, and every other session revoked
  • •A team invitation now reports truthfully whether the email was sent, and creates the invitation either way
  • •With no transport configured, the request is refused with an explanation instead of claiming success
🔒

A security page that only claims what the product does

Every statement on it is verifiable against the product, and it says plainly what is NOT claimed.

    🐛 Bug Fixes

    WordPress and Shopify credentials were stored in plaintext

    An application password is a real credential for your own site. They are encrypted at rest now, with the existing ones migrated.

    Six screens told connected customers they were not connected

    A failed check was drawn as "not connected" rather than as a failed check — so a Search Console outage looked like a disconnected account.

    Fourteen dashboard actions failed silently

    A write the server refused left the screen looking as though it had worked.

    Four dashboard controls called endpoints that had never been built

    Retrying a failed publish, cancelling an invitation, the member picker and the Shopify blog selector.

    Changing an article's status from the article page did nothing

    The dropdown reported success and the status did not change.

    Every date boundary was computed in the server's timezone

    Daily usage could be recorded against the previous day, and a billing period could start an hour before the month.

    Both inbound publishing webhooks had a guard that could never fire

    Not a live bypass — the routes in front of them refuse first — but the check itself was inert.

    ⚡ Improvements

    Recording usage no longer scales with the amount reported

    It made one database round trip per unit. Reporting 200 units took 2.8 seconds inside a single request; it is now flat.

    Spreadsheet-safe exports, everywhere

    Every CSV this product emits neutralises formula injection, and download filenames no longer break on non-Latin titles.

    v3.2.0

    MINOR
    August 3, 2026

    A full security pass. Cross-tenant access was possible on articles, platform connections, keyword lists and collections; password-reset tokens were stored in plaintext; there was no request size limit. All closed, and the type gate that would have caught several of them is back on.

    ✨ New Features

    🛡️

    Error boundaries on every page

    A render error used to produce a blank white page. Every area of the application now has a boundary that keeps the navigation usable and offers a way back.

      🐛 Bug Fixes

      Cross-tenant access on articles, connections, keyword lists and collections

      Requests carrying another workspace's identifier could read or change data that was not theirs — including a platform connection's stored credentials. Every by-identifier route is now scoped to the caller's own organisation, centrally rather than route by route, and a request naming a workspace outside your organisation is refused before a handler runs.

      Paying customers were enforced at the free tier

      Two separate plan definitions existed and the one being enforced defaulted to free, so a paid account could be hard-blocked at two articles a month with an upgrade prompt.

      A failed card never marked a subscription past due

      Three fields moved in the payment provider's API and the code could not see the change, so a failed payment left full access in place.

      Cancelling a subscription ended access immediately

      Instead of at the end of the period already paid for — up to two months lost. The same bad date then produced a "$0.00, 0 days remaining" figure on the upgrade screen.

      Password-reset tokens were stored in plaintext

      Only a hash is stored now, single-use, and issuing a new link invalidates the outstanding one.

      No request body size limit anywhere

      A 24 MB body was buffered and parsed without authentication.

      A customer keyword could be used as a regular expression

      Which blocked the server for 73 seconds and then crashed it.

      Restoring an article version did not work, for anyone

      And the same route had no tenancy check at all — both fixed together, because fixing only the first would have opened a cross-tenant write.

      The API keys screen was handing out keys that never existed

      One settings panel generated a plausible-looking key in the browser, showed it as live, and reported success on revoking it.

      The AI stream endpoint returned fabricated content

      It served hardcoded prose one word at a time to imitate a model, on a live authenticated endpoint. It now refuses instead.

      Inbound publishing webhooks had never worked

      Nothing could create an endpoint, so every delivery was rejected. They are persisted and signature-verified now.

      Deleting a keyword cluster reported success and deleted nothing

      ⚡ Improvements

      Native browser dialogs replaced throughout

      Eight alerts and thirteen confirmations used the browser's own dialogs, which take their buttons from the operating system language — so a customer reading the product in Arabic got an English left-to-right dialog on the destructive actions specifically.

      The shared dropdown works from the keyboard

      Including the organisation switcher and the account menu, which appear on every page.

      Right-to-left layout works

      It never had: the direction was being applied and then removed as the page loaded, so Arabic rendered inside a left-to-right document. 417 hard-coded directional styles were converted.

      Automation runs outside the web request

      A run takes minutes and used to execute inside an HTTP request, capped at roughly one run a minute. Each run is now claimed atomically, so two workers can never charge the same run twice.

      Images are stored as files rather than inside the database

      Rate limiting on every endpoint

      Four of about 350 routes had any limit. The default now applies everywhere, per customer and per endpoint.

      Faster lists everywhere

      Publishing history, the publishing queue, automation statistics, keywords and the dashboard were reading every row a workspace had ever produced. They are bounded or aggregated now — and the per-site breakdown on the automation analytics card, which had always been empty, reads the right table at last.

      v3.1.0

      MINOR
      July 11, 2026

      The whole product in seven languages, including right-to-left, with a switcher in the dashboard header and on the public site. Plus a Free allowance that resets every month instead of expiring once.

      ✨ New Features

      🌍

      Seven languages

      English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Swedish and Arabic, across the dashboard, the Labs, the documentation and the public pages.

      • •A switcher in the dashboard header and in the landing navigation
      • •Arabic includes right-to-left layout
      • •Around 15,000 strings that were still English placeholders were translated
      • •Every area is covered: workflow, automation, keywords, profiles, analysis, settings, team, billing and the public pages
      🎁

      A Free allowance that resets every month

      The free tier was a one-time pool that expired. It is now a monthly allowance, so an account that has been idle is usable again next month.

        🐛 Bug Fixes

        Live progress stopped updating behind some networks

        The generation log appeared frozen while the work was proceeding normally. A keep-alive now keeps the connection open.

        The five-step workflow could produce duplicate articles

        And the finished article was hard to read on the light theme.

        Research fell over when the direct provider had no credit

        It now falls back to a second provider instead of failing the step.

        Twenty-two Lab and documentation screens crashed on load

        A missing import during the language work meant the page threw instead of rendering.

        ⚡ Improvements

        Contact details, one support channel

        A support email and a ticketing system, and the phone number, WhatsApp link and street address removed from every page.

        AI endpoints check your allowance before spending it

        59 endpoints could be reached without one.
