🚀 New Features

This release introduces several new capabilities across Digital PR, Outreach, and OTTO that customers may notice right away.

  • Create-Campaign 4-step wizard (Digital PR): The Digital PR Create Campaign flow is now a guided 4-step wizard — Sources → Targeting → Channels → Sequence — replacing the previous single-page email form. Current behavior is unchanged: the SERP source and Email channel remain pre-selected, and the same fields produce the same campaign result. The new structure simply makes the process clearer to follow.
  • Redesigned Send Email composer (Outreach): The Outreach Send Email composer has a new look, currently behind a feature flag. The updated composer includes a subject line field, a sender selector, a recipient context header, templates, and a Write/Preview toggle. If a customer reports seeing a different composer layout, check whether the feature flag is enabled on their account.
  • Multi-channel DPR campaign detail page: The Digital PR campaign detail page is being redesigned (also flag-gated) to display data across email, mobile, and map channels instead of email-only stats. Google Maps prospects now show business name, address, rating, and phone alongside domain and SEO metrics.
  • Google Safe Browsing warnings in OTTO: The OTTO Overview page now displays a red warning banner at the top of the page when Google Safe Browsing has flagged a domain for malware, unwanted software, or social engineering. The banner appears in both private and shared client views and is hidden for clean domains.

📣 Outreach & Campaign Hub Improvements

  • Search campaign box stays visible during loading: In Campaign Hub's Campaign Types tab, the search campaign box no longer disappears while a search is in progress. It remains visible and usable while typing, clearing, or resetting. The loading indicator now appears only within the results table.
  • Single-select sources drive Targeting step: In the Create-Campaign wizard, the Sources step is now single-select. The selected source directly determines the fields shown in the Targeting step. The previous manual keywords/domains toggle and multi-select source option have been removed.
  • DPR Campaigns template preview and notifications fixed: The template preview (View Existing Templates) now opens correctly on hover or click again. Form field focus styles are consistent, dropdowns open downward instead of off-screen, and campaign/contact create, edit, and delete actions now show success or error toast notifications.

🏗️ Authority Building Improvements

  • Visual refresh across Authority Building: The press release wizard, project selectors, and Cloud Stacks template builder pages have been updated to match the rest of the app's look and feel. Tooltips, dialogs, dropdowns, empty states, and loading spinners are visually consistent. No workflow changes were made.
  • URL Indexer column sorting fixed: As part of a table component update across Authority Building (Press Releases, Cloud Stacks, URL Indexer, Quest, Digital PR campaigns/inbox/contacts), a bug that broke column sorting in the URL Indexer has been resolved. Sorting now works correctly.
  • Press Release & Cloud Stack wizard form improvements: The Knowledge Graph step now validates fields — including text, links, dropdowns, and other inputs — and shows completion checkmarks consistently as you fill them in. Table pagination on Cloud Stacks, URL Indexer, and Quest views now uses each table's built-in controls, remembers the chosen page size, and resets to the first page when a filter is changed.

🤖 OTTO Improvements

  • Cloudflare worker version display and upgrade button: The OTTO Cloudflare installation guide now shows the installed worker version along with a stability badge (stable, beta, or deprecated). A one-click Upgrade button appears when a newer approved version is available. Diagnostics also include a new Worker Version Currency check.

✍️ Content Genius Improvements

  • Brand Vault default article length now respected: In Content Genius V5, if a user generates an article without manually selecting a length, the composer now correctly uses the Brand Vault's saved default length instead of defaulting to the optimized (~1,500–2,000 words) setting. Manually selecting Short, Optimized, or Long still works as before.
  • Agent "start from scratch" articles get a real title: V5 articles created through the Atlas agent's start-from-scratch chat flow now receive a generated title instead of remaining stuck on the "New Document {N}" placeholder. If customers report unexpected titles in their article list or editor, this change is relevant.
  • Brand Vault image uploads auto-name files: When uploading images to Brand Vault, the platform now auto-generates a descriptive filename based on the image content, pre-filled in an editable field. If auto-naming fails, it falls back to the original filename, which also remains editable. The original filename is retained as metadata.
  • Brand Vault CSV bulk-import for top pages: A new Import CSV button is available in the Brand Vault top-pages section, allowing customers to bulk-add pages via spreadsheet. The button includes a format hint and template. The single-page add option is unchanged.
  • Send to Website Studio empty state: In Content Genius, the Send to Website Studio publish modal now shows a helpful empty state with a link to create a site when the user has no Website Studio sites connected, instead of displaying a blank dropdown.

💳 Billing Improvement

  • Low-quota warning banner removed: The amber "running low on quota" warning banner (shown when quota fell below 10%) has been removed from the Billing → Plans & Top-ups page entirely. The quota-reset date information line remains unchanged.
