Changelog

What shipped.

29 customer-facing releases in 18 weeks, newest first. The engines move every week, so the product does too. For what Refine connects to today, see integrations.

September 2026
  1. Publish to Shopify

    Publishing

    Articles written in Refine can go straight to the blog of your Shopify store, so the content sits next to the products it should sell.

  2. Your assistant can publish, not just write

    MCP

    Through the MCP server, Claude, Cursor or ChatGPT can now push an approved article to your connected site, without opening the dashboard.

  3. Publish to WordPress

    Publishing

    Connect a WordPress site with an application password and publish as a draft or live post, in the category you choose.

  4. Clearer connection forms

    Onboarding

    The connect screens for each integration now answer what people actually asked us: which permission to grant, where to find the token, what happens on revoke.

  5. Your first scan starts right after payment

    Onboarding

    No more waiting for the first report: the scan launches the moment the plan is active, and you watch it run.

  6. AI traffic, period over period

    Insights

    The AI traffic view shows deltas against the previous period and tells you plainly whether the snippet is installed and receiving.

  7. Enough suggested prompts to fill your plan

    Prompts

    Prompt suggestions now come in batches sized to your plan, ranked by search demand, so a new brand is monitored end to end on day one.

  8. Restore a deleted prompt

    Prompts

    Deleted a prompt by mistake? Bring it back with its history intact.

  9. Sponsored placements in ChatGPT answers

    Insights

    When ChatGPT shows a sponsored result on one of your monitored prompts, Refine captures it and shows which brand paid to be there.

  10. One card for what to do next

    Dashboard

    The dashboard opens on a single recommended action for the account, computed from this week’s changes.

August 2026
  1. Import prompts from a CSV, or paste them in bulk

    Prompts

    Bring the questions you already track — from a spreadsheet or a paste — without rewriting them one by one.

  2. Publish to Next.js sites

    Publishing

    Two ways: a pull request on your GitHub repository, or @getrefine/next, which serves your articles server-side on your domain with one file of setup and no rebuild.

  3. Citation gap: which competitors win each source

    Insights

    For every source an engine relies on, see which competitors it feeds into the answer and which of your pages could take their place.

  4. What changed since last week

    Prompts

    Each prompt shows what moved in seven days: gained, lost, new competitor, new source.

  5. Site health: live AI-crawlability checks

    Insights

    Refine checks whether GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot and Google-Extended can actually read your site, and flags what blocks them.

  6. A recommended play per source

    Insights

    Each citation-gap target comes with a recommended move and the contacts to reach, so outreach starts from the report.

  7. Winning, At risk, Unclaimed

    Prompts

    Every prompt gets a status and a buyer-intent label, with an estimated visibility gain for each fix. Filter tabs put the work in order.

  8. Attribute site visits to AI assistants

    Insights

    A 1 KB snippet for your site tells you which assistant sent each visit — the traffic figure that visibility numbers were missing.

  9. Suggested prompts, ranked by search volume

    Prompts

    Suggestions are generated from your brand context and sorted by monthly AI search demand, so the first prompts you add are the ones that matter.

  10. This week’s biggest change, on the dashboard

    Dashboard

    The one movement worth your attention this week, surfaced in-app and detected by the agent.

  11. Ask the agent from anywhere

    Agent

    The advisory agent is one shortcut away on every screen, and it ranks your prompts by the search demand their absence costs you.

  12. The Refine Agent

    Agent

    An advisory agent that knows your visibility data, reads the sources the engines cite, watches Reddit, and proposes actions you confirm before anything runs.

  13. Redesigned dashboard and ⌘K

    Dashboard

    A calmer layout, a command palette that searches across the app, and monthly AI search volume with a three-month trend on every prompt.

  14. Citation gap and visibility impact

    Insights

    Citation gap lists the sources engines cite where you are absent, as a PR target list. Visibility impact shows before-and-after proof for the content you post.

    Prompt-detail visualisations rebuilt for reading trends at a glance.
