August 12, 2026

Latest

New

  • Eight new blog posts on SEO reporting, site overlays, and MCP workflows—including a Danish monthly reporting guide and Cursor MCP workflow articles—with distinct featured and Open Graph images.
  • SEO Perception MCP guide links for SEO MCP servers, live vs stored Search Console evidence, and practical Cursor workflows.

Improved

  • Replaced launch blog artwork with distinct desk-planner heroes and clearer Open Graph title cards.
  • Blog articles read more cleanly: stronger typography, figure captions, and table of contents styling.
  • The Danish monthly SEO-report guide now includes labeled diagrams for noise-to-decision flow, report anatomy, and a 30-day rhythm.
  • Blog articles now use responsive image variants (AVIF/WebP) and richer BlogPosting structured data with breadcrumbs, author, dates, and image dimensions.
  • Dedicated Open Graph images for MCP, Site Overlay, and PDF export documentation.

August 2026 4 days

August 11, 2026

New

  • Search Console collection now checks submitted sitemap health and inspects a sample of important URLs in Google’s index, then suggests fixes only for real fetch, noindex, canonical, and rich-result problems.
  • Business and Enterprise plans include Search appearance (rich-result types) and flag pages that show those appearances without matching structured data.

Improved

  • HTTP crawls now skip noscript and markup-hidden images in alt checks, pick up JSON-LD author names, and detect thin question headings.

Fixed

  • HTTP crawls now collect headings, link anchors, image alts, and hreflang so Search Console suggestions no longer treat those signals as missing.
  • HTTP crawls now detect viewport, favicon, language, and RSS/Atom feed links even when attributes are unquoted or in a different order.
  • HTTP crawls now detect rel=author links, so editorial pages with a byline are no longer flagged as missing one.

August 6, 2026

New

Improved

  • Refreshed product screenshots in documentation, on AI discoverability and SEO Perception MCP, and in the SEO report case-study posts.
  • Website workspace now includes a Possibilities tab next to Overview, with a quieter Overview cue; old /seo-possibilities links open that tab.
  • /llms.txt and /llms-full.txt updated for the new feature pages, EntityMap, and sitemap pointers.
  • Free JSON-LD generator hero now shows a live desk “schema slip” (visible page beside matching JSON-LD), with clearer copy-to-paste feedback.
  • Dashboard keeps SEO Possibilities as the one solid coral action per site, moves other controls into a clearer Tools menu, and shows a single recrawl suggestion instead of repeating it under every domain.
  • Dashboard rows now lead with “Work this week,” keep plan limits quieter, and put the recrawl suggestion after the site list so the next action stays easier to find.
  • Features menu opens as a megamenu with icon tiles and short descriptions for each product page; the mobile menu keeps the same Product list in a simpler layout.
  • The site and app are available in English and Danish only; older Swedish and Norwegian URLs redirect to the English pages.
  • New logo and favicon: a coral and charcoal Priority Tick mark (replacing the old purple cube) in browser tabs, navigation, and home-screen icons.
  • Login, signup, support, contact, about, blog, legal, and other public pages now match the Weekly Desk Planner look (blotter paper, coral accents).
  • Logged-in app screens (dashboard, website detail, account, admin, Today’s Focus, charts, and Site Overlay) now use coral, charcoal, and slate accents instead of purple, with clearer secondary text.
  • Documentation matches the rest of the public site: one header, blotter paper, coral accents, Start here steps, Possibilities labeling, and Connect Google Search Console under the GSC topic.
  • Public /changelog now matches the Weekly Desk Planner look: blotter paper, visible date headings, coral accents, and earlier updates folded by month.
  • Pricing page rebuilt so you can match plans to your sites more easily; Possibilities, MCP, and Site Overlay appear first in the comparison.
  • SEO Perception MCP page redesigned with interactive demos and clearer setup.
  • Features and homepage marketing pages redesigned with clearer copy and real product screenshots.

August 5, 2026

New

  • Sitewide announcement bar for SEO Perception MCP: talk to your Search Console data and SEO analysis from Cursor, Claude, and other MCP clients.

Improved

  • SEO Perception MCP feature page now shows example prompts and sample AI responses; paid pricing plans list MCP; agents can read /llms.txt and /llms-full.txt.

Fixed

  • Image alt checks no longer treat a bare alt attribute (no value) as missing, so the same image is not reported under both missing and empty alt.

August 4, 2026

New

  • Paid SEO Perception MCP brings stored Search Console keywords and SEO possibilities into Cursor, Claude, and other MCP clients. Manage tokens under Account → MCP; setup guide in docs.
  • Cookies page explaining essential cookies and privacy-friendly analytics (no Google Analytics).

Improved

  • Pricing comparison table is easier to scan—centered cells, checkmark or X when tiers match, short labels (e.g. 1/day, ~1/hr) when they differ.
  • Site analytics moved from Google Analytics to self-hosted Umami; Privacy Policy updated for cookieless measurement without a consent banner for analytics.
  • Umami now records a small set of funnel events (signup, checkout, newsletter, contact, adding a website) for product strategy.
  • SEO Perception MCP is framed for content optimization in Cursor, Claude, and other MCP clients, with example prompts for recovering losing keywords on a page.
  • Account → MCP now shows when each personal token was last used.
  • Documentation hub consolidates overlapping guides, shows the full Issue reference list, and updates rate limits and UI labels (Details, Recrawl site) to match the product.
  • Docs now include focused screenshots for Notifications, PDF export, PageSpeed, and the Collect data / Recrawl site menu.

Fixed

  • Sitemap and Search Console URLs that were only inventoried are now crawled within your plan’s page limit, so crawl progress can finish.
  • MCP token creation shows a clearer message when account setup is still finishing.
  • Page detail no longer crashes when a PageSpeed “measured at” timestamp is shown.

July 24, 2026

Improved

  • Large site Recrawls no longer stall between batches.

July 19, 2026

Improved

Fixed

July 16, 2026

Improved

  • Crawls start from website creation, a Recrawl action, or retry recovery—idle sites no longer silently recrawl by age.

New

June 2026 6 days

June 26, 2026

Improved

  • Sitemap discovery is gentler on your server: less frequent rediscovery, and short delays between fetches.

Fixed

  • Recrawl now fully resets pages in production so manual recrawls requeue pages and refresh possibilities.

June 9, 2026

New

  • Free JSON-LD generator for Organization, FAQ, and Article schema, with copy-to-clipboard and prefills from SEO Possibilities.
  • New possibilities for missing rel=author, missing Organization JSON-LD (when org settings are saved), overlapping/conflicting JSON-LD entities, and incomplete homepage Organization markup.

June 5, 2026

New

  • Public /crawler page explaining our crawler (linked from the crawler User-Agent).

Improved

  • SEO Possibilities (large sites) — Group summaries load first and affected URLs load when you expand a group.
  • Image alt possibilities ignore lazy-load placeholders, resolve real image URLs, and deduplicate reported images.
  • Website details — Overview — Top queries and Traffic leaders cards align with the Rank momentum column height, with longer lists scrolling inside the card.
  • Sign-in — Google is the primary option on sign-in and create-account screens; the Google button reads “Log in with Google”.

  • Homepage — Hero product mockup stays sharper on very wide screens.
  • Slow or complex pages get more time to load during crawls before we mark them failed.

Fixed

  • Pages that could stay stuck as pending after a recrawl are queued correctly again.
  • Temporary server errors are retried more patiently instead of marking pages failed too soon.

June 1, 2026

Improved

  • Recrawl on the dashboard triggers a full site-wide recrawl of all active pages, not just incomplete URLs.
