What's new in Outerank

We ship constantly. Here's everything new — features, improvements and fixes, newest first.

New

¡Bienvenidos! Outerank now speaks Spanish

  • Set your language to Español and the whole app plus every page speaks to you in Spanish
  • Generate articles in Spanish for your LATAM and Spain clients from Content Writer or set it once on the Scribe agent
  • Every AI you use — Advisor, GEO, Outreach, and the rest — replies in the language your account is set to
New

Scribe now writes in your chosen language

  • New Article language selector on the Scribe agent (Auto / English / French) — pick it once per project and every scheduled + manual run honors it, no matter your account UI locale
  • Great for agencies that run Outerank in one language but deliver articles in another
New

Speak your language

  • New Output-language selector on Content Writer — force English or French articles no matter your UI locale (great for agencies serving foreign clients)
  • GEO AI Answer Sentiment, Topic Clusters, FAQ Suggestions, and AEO Rewrite now respond in your account's language
  • Pulse briefs are now written in your language
  • Advisor, Content, Outreach helper prompts now respect your UI language
Launch

Outerank is now fully in French

  • Pick Français from the language switcher and the whole product — app, module guides, marketing site, emails — speaks to you in French
  • Every AI feature replies in the language your account is set to, so a French account gets French recommendations everywhere
  • The country picker shows French names for major markets when you are browsing in French
New

More articles included in every trial

  • Pro trials include 2 articles
  • Studio trials include 6 articles
  • Agency trials include 10 articles
New

Fewer emails, and each one worth opening

  • Urgent alerts for several projects now arrive as one message instead of one per project
  • There is a firm daily limit on how many summary emails any account can receive, so a busy week can no longer flood your inbox
  • A link we are checking for the first time is recorded as a starting point rather than announced as this week's win, so importing your existing links no longer looks like winning them
  • A manual backlink check now stays short and tells you how many are still due instead of leaving you waiting
  • When a site does not respond to us, your links there are left as they were and we say so, rather than reporting them missing
New

Every finding now leads somewhere

  • Brain findings have an Ask button that opens the Advisor with the question already written from what Brain measured, ready for you to edit or send
  • Prospects, lost links and competitor gaps now arrive in Outreach with the site and pitch angle filled in, and a note saying where they came from
  • Prospect cards in Backlinks have a Pitch this in Outreach button so you never retype a domain
  • Link restore joins the pitch angles, so recovering a link that disappeared is a first-class pitch with its own reply rate
  • None of these handoffs spend anything on arrival, drafting stays a deliberate press
New

Track a whole cluster in one click

  • Every keyword cluster now has a Track all button, and the results table can send everything you have filtered to the Rank Tracker at once
  • Adding keywords in bulk is free and tells you plainly how many were added, how many were already there, and how many did not fit your plan
  • When your positions move, a summary now arrives by email the next morning, covering everything since your last one
  • The summary leads with what slipped off page one, then what reached it, so the part you can act on comes first
  • Single-position wobbles are left out of that email because search results shuffle on their own
New

Know what your backlinks did this week

  • Import the backlinks we found for you straight into monitoring, filtered by authority and one link per site
  • A new What changed panel shows links gained, lost and recovered over the last 7 days, next to a 12-week trend
  • A weekly email arrives when something moves, so you do not have to remember to check
  • A link is confirmed missing across two separate checks before it is reported, so an alert means something
  • A heads-up appears if a burst of very low-authority links starts pointing at your site
Improved

Smoother billing

  • Changing your plan now goes straight to Manage billing, where you can see the prorated amount before anything changes.
  • Adding more seats or projects updates the subscription you already have instead of starting a new one.
  • Cancelling your plan also stops billing for add-ons and extra capacity, so you are never charged for something you can no longer use.
  • Credits returned after a run that did not complete keep the same expiry they had before.
New

Extra seats and extra projects

  • Buy extra seats or extra projects one at a time from Billing, instead of moving up a whole plan tier.
  • Team seats now work on Pro and Studio, not only Agency — invite a teammate with their own login and your projects.
  • Your Billing page shows the arithmetic: what your plan includes, what you have added, and the total.
Improved

Internal Link Finder runs reliably

  • Crawls start promptly and report real progress from beginning to end.
  • Stop & keep what we have now ends the crawl immediately and saves every page found so far.
  • If a crawl cannot finish, you get a clear message and can start again — no more waiting on a spinner.
Improved

Pricing page brought up to date

  • Credit top-up packs listed with current sizes and prices: 500 for $9, 2,000 for $39, 5,000 for $99.
  • AI-search citation tracking shown across all six engines it covers, including Google AI Overviews.
  • Extra seats and extra projects listed with their prices on every plan that offers them.
New

Pulse and Scribe available to buy

  • Both add-ons can now be bought directly from your Billing page and switch on straight away.
  • You get a receipt email for every purchase — plans, credit packs and add-ons.
Improved

A more readable app

  • Text across the logged-in app now sits at full contrast on every page.
  • Crawl and scan progress panels match whichever background they appear on.
  • Data tables scroll sideways on phones instead of running off the screen.
New

Purchased credits never expire

  • Credits you buy are held separately from your monthly allowance and are never cleared at the reset.
  • Your monthly allowance is always spent first, so paid credits are never burned while free ones expire.
  • New Credit usage page in Settings: every credit you spent, split by module, by action, and by whether you pressed a button or a schedule ran it.
New

Mobile fixes

  • Onboarding confirmation text is readable on phones - it was light green on light green
  • 16 data tables now scroll sideways on mobile instead of running off the screen
New

Dates actually show now

  • Fixed the citation check date not appearing on the GEO module
  • Rank tracker, keywords, backlinks, content and Scribe cards now show when their data was produced
New

GEO polish

  • AI engines shown as brand logos everywhere, with the product name on hover
  • Per-engine breakdown now names engines properly instead of internal codes
New

Dates on everything

  • Every generated result now shows when it was produced, and warns you when it is out of date
  • AI engines in the citation table are now logos with the name on hover
  • GEO citation results carry their run date so old checks are never mistaken for current ones
New

Overview completes

  • Today's Work now comes from Brain, so one engine ranks everything you should fix
  • Client Reports added to the Overview
  • Pulse and Scribe appear on the Overview for accounts that own them
New

AI Search Optimizer

  • Section now names all 6 AI engines instead of 3
  • Citation results show when they were run, and warn when the check is over 30 days old
  • Engine count and prompt count are now clearly separated
New

Overview polish

  • Every chart label now translates - French users were seeing English in all 10 Overview charts
  • Competitor empty state and project-switch tooltip translated
New

Overview page

  • Removed the duplicate Score trend section
  • Snapshot cards rebuilt with hoverable columns and a stated range
  • AI Search Optimizer now shows all 6 AI engines with a per-engine citation breakdown
  • Fixed the engines-citing-you count, which missed Gemini, Claude and Grok
New

Learn guides

  • Brain and Keyword Research guides updated for the new suggestion behaviour
New

Brain gets sharper

  • Brain now updates its advice the moment you do the work, instead of waiting for the nightly run
  • Every module shows its own Brain suggestions - previously only the top 5 reached the page
  • New Keyword Research advice, including 'you researched N keywords, now pick the ones to track'
  • Brain is black everywhere it appears
  • Overview now keeps the project you selected instead of jumping to another site
New

Brain guide

New

Brain cockpit

  • Brain Score panel redesigned as a dark cockpit
  • Component weights now visible, with the points each one is costing your score
  • Biggest-lever callout tells you which component to fix first
New

Rank checks: same data, 3x cheaper — and a progress bar

  • Manual rank checks now run in the background on our batch data pipe with a live progress bar, so you can keep working while they finish (about a minute)
  • Need it in seconds? The new Instant option uses the live pipe — identical rankings, priced for the real cost of speed
  • Depth pricing updated: top 10/20/30/100 = 3/4/6/18 credits per 25 keywords (Instant 10/14/20/60)
  • Manual checks now have a generous daily ceiling per plan as an abuse backstop — the free bi-weekly auto-check is unaffected
New

Fixed missing labels in Internal Links

  • Ten table headings in Internal Links were showing internal placeholder text instead of their real titles — now fixed in English and French
  • Same fix for three labels in Brain, Backlinks and Outreach
New

French app translation completed

  • Every module screen is now fully translated — 126 hardcoded English strings across 20 modules moved into the translation files with French wording
  • Fixed two guide texts that failed to render because a code tag in the sentence was read as formatting
New

AI-search checks now run in your market's language

  • Citation checks are generated and run in your project's own language instead of always English — a French project is now measured on French queries, which is what its customers actually type
  • A 'Checking in: French' label on the Citations tab tells you which market you're measuring before you spend credits
  • New dropdown to override the language — for agencies selling into a different market than they sit in
  • Prompt suggestions and scheduled auto-checks follow the same language
New

Credit usage page + GEO schedule fixes

  • New Settings → Credit usage page: see every credit you spent, split by module, by action, and by whether YOU pressed a button or an automatic schedule ran it
  • Automatic AI-search citation checks now bill only the engines you picked, refund fully if a run fails, and never run on paused projects
  • Google AI Overviews added as its own engine in the AI-search showcase (it is a different surface from Gemini)
New

AI-visibility auto-checks + simpler rank cadences

  • New: schedule automatic AI-citation checks in the AI Search module — weekly, bi-weekly or monthly, with the credit cost shown up-front
  • Rank Tracker auto-check cadences simplified to Bi-weekly or Monthly (the free check already scans the full top 100 — use Check rank now for fresher numbers)
Fixed

Rank tracking + signup analytics fixes

  • Auto-check schedule now clearly shows the real default (every 2 weeks) instead of implying weekly
  • Custom rank-check cadences now use the same efficient batch check as the default, so deep top-100 data costs less
  • Scheduled rank and AI-visibility checks now stop for accounts that no longer include those modules
  • Signups are now recorded properly so the growth funnel reports real numbers
Improved

Rank Tracker: choose your search depth + bigger keyword pools

  • Check rank now lets you pick how deep to look — top 10, 20, 30 or 100 — and pay only for the depth you choose
  • Select exactly which keywords to re-check instead of running the whole list
  • Keyword limits are now one pool shared across all your projects — 200 Starter, 1,000 Pro, 2,500 Studio, 5,000 Agency
  • More projects on every plan: 3 Starter, 10 Pro, 20 Studio, 50 Agency
  • Automatic rank checks now run every 2 weeks and scan the full top 100

New

Outerank browser toolbar (beta)

  • A new Chrome toolbar for subscribers: on any page, one click gives you the SEO audit, an internal-link check, the domain's backlinks, AI-search readiness, your measured AI citations, and a competitor “spy” view — without leaving the tab.
  • Measured AI citations now break down engine by engine (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews and more), showing how many prompts each engine cited you in.
  • Everything runs on demand — switching tabs never triggers a lookup — and each panel links straight to the matching module in the app. Rolling out to paid plans.
Improved

Reliability & polish

  • A cleaner, clearer system status page.
  • A brand-new changelog page (you're looking at it).
  • Squashed a batch of edge-case errors across the app for a smoother experience.
New

Developer API + sharper AI-search positioning

  • New read-only Developer API (v1): pull your projects, audit scores, keywords, rankings, backlinks and AI-search citations into your own tools, dashboards and scripts using an API key. Available on Pro and up.
  • AI Search (GEO) is now measured, not modeled — we run your prompts through the real AI engines and read the real answers, so you see exactly where you're cited.
  • The AI Search section now leads the homepage — it's the differentiator that matters most in 2026.
New

Report preview + white-label that actually shows your brand

  • Preview any report template — with your own branding — before you generate it, right from Settings → Reports & Branding.
  • White-label reports now show your brand (name, logo, colour) everywhere, with zero mention of Outerank on Agency plans.
  • New French SEO guides for teams comparing tools and pricing.
Improved

A more generous, clearer free plan

  • Free accounts can run the Site Audit and check AI-search readiness, with every other module visible so you can see exactly what you'll unlock.
  • Clearer in-app messaging about what's included on each plan.
Improved

Rebalanced plans + honest limits

  • New credit allowances and project/seat limits across Starter, Pro, Studio and Agency — more headroom where it counts.
  • Every plan limit is now shown transparently in-app and on pricing.
New

AI-search citation tracking goes fully measured

  • Track real citations across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews — measured from the live engines, not estimated.
  • See per-engine 'cited / mentioned / absent', which competitor took your spot, and the exact fix to win the citation.
  • Honest labelling: any engine we can't measure yet is clearly marked as modelled.
New

Brain becomes a cross-module strategist

  • Brain now reads across all your modules each night and hands you 3–5 ranked, highest-impact actions — with the reasoning shown.
  • A single 'Brain Score' north-star, effort estimates so you can do the quick wins first, and a plain-English strategist read of what changed.
  • Brain measures whether its own past advice actually worked and adjusts — advice you can hold accountable.
New

Client Reports, rebuilt

  • Seven polished report templates (Outerank, Executive, Visual, Minimal, Corporate, Bold, Modern) with one-click PDF, print and shareable links.

  • Per-project tracking schedules, share-of-voice, movers, and quick-win insights.
  • Backlink Monitor, Outreach and the Backlinks workspace got a major polish pass.
New

Keywords, Competitor Intel & AI Content Writer

  • Faster, richer keyword research with real volume, difficulty, intent and 'golden' opportunities.
  • Competitor Intel watches rivals' pages and surfaces changes and new topics you can counter.

New

Site Audit + Internal Links, deeper

  • Site Audit runs 100+ technical checks with a cinematic results view and PDF export.
