    AI Answer Snapshot side-by-side compare

    Compare two captures of the same prompt with a word-level diff and a structured list of new, dropped, and changed claims.

    • Word-level diff highlights additions, deletions, and rewordings inline.
    • Side panel breaks down competitors mentioned, missing claims, and inaccurate claims as separate lists.
    • Snapshot picker now sorts by capture date and shows the source model on every row.

    Mobile command navigation refinements

    The mobile Signal Index drawer is faster, has clearer hierarchy, and remembers the last visited module per session.

    • Drawer opens in under 120ms on mid-tier devices and now closes on swipe.
    • Active-route indicator uses a scanning underline to match the desktop signal bar.
    • Last visited module is restored when reopening the drawer in the same session.

    Brand Signal Map layout pass

    The dashboard Brand Signal Map now scales cleanly from 360px wide tablets up to 4K displays.

    • Hover and tap targets reach the 44px guideline on touch devices.
    • Color tokens align with the rest of the dashboard for consistent contrast.

    • Three-row preview shows how reviews will be parsed before any data is written.
    • Duplicate detection compares verbatim text across existing reviews and the import set.

    Competitor Lens comparison overlays

    Competitor positioning gaps are now visualised as overlay deltas instead of stacked rows.

    • New overlay mode shows where your messaging diverges from each tracked competitor.

    • Switch between overlay and table view from the toolbar.

    Risk Radar alert routing

    Route Risk Radar alerts by severity to the right inboxes — and silence noise during off-hours.

    • Quiet hours window per workspace, with override for critical events.
    • Triage drawer now records who acknowledged each event and when.

    • Marketing consent is captured separately from transactional and brief emails.
    • Unsubscribe pages confirm the change and offer a single re-subscribe action.

    Customer Language extraction quality

    Phrase frequency extraction is more accurate on long reviews and noisy AI answers.

    • New segmentation step splits long passages into clause-level units before counting.
    • Stopword filtering tuned to keep brand-relevant adjectives and verbs.
    • Trend arrows now compare on a rolling 28-day window for stability.
  3. ImprovedMar 12, 2026

    Dashboard speed pass

    First meaningful paint on the Brand Dashboard is roughly 40% faster on cold loads.

    • Module data fetches run in parallel rather than sequentially.
    • Chart rendering deferred until idle so above-the-fold content paints first.
    • Skeleton states match the eventual layout to remove perceived jank.

    • Snapshots seed AI Visibility, Reviews, Competitors, and Briefs automatically.
    • Versioned record so you can compare the brand state across months.
