## Copywriter - Catch unsupported claims before content is published

**Improved**

Copywriter now evaluates the saved final draft more carefully before publication, with stronger evidence requirements for comparisons and commercial claims.

**Review the content you will actually publish** — Quality and publish-readiness checks run against the final saved artifact instead of relying on an earlier draft or intermediate generation step.

**Require stronger support for commercial claims** — Claims about a product, service, price, guarantee, credential, or business capability need appropriate first-party evidence. Competitor research can inform the draft, but it is not treated as proof of what your business offers.

**Keep comparisons grounded** — Copywriter retains the evidence used for comparison content so important distinctions can be reviewed instead of disappearing after generation.

**Turn a blocker into a specific edit** — When a claim is unsupported, the review explains what needs attention and helps narrow the correction. Resolve, qualify, or remove the claim before using a live publishing destination.

These checks improve review quality; they do not replace a human editor or guarantee that every statement is correct. Use [Reviewing a draft in the editor](https://help.rankability.com/copywriter/running-an-editor-review) before publishing.

## Rankability - Connect Claude or Codex and work through your AI assistant

**New**

Rankability now provides a guided way to connect Claude or Codex and use the selected client's Rankability context and tools from your assistant.

**Start from organization settings** — Open Settings → API keys, choose Connect Claude or Codex, and follow the assistant-specific OAuth or scoped-key instructions.

**Verify the connection before starting work** — The setup checks that the Rankability endpoint is ready and gives you a read-only verification prompt. Confirm the active organization, shared-credit balance, and available tools before approving a consequential action.

**See whether the connection is actually ready** — Connection status distinguishes a configured assistant from one that still needs authentication or attention, reducing guesswork when no tools appear.

**Keep usage and job states clear** — The assistant can read the active credit state, estimate supported work before it starts, and distinguish saved drafts, queued jobs, stale integrations, and unavailable measurements instead of presenting them as completed work or zeros.

Follow [Connecting Rankability to AI assistants with MCP](https://help.rankability.com/api/mcp-getting-started) to connect and verify your assistant.

## Copywriter - Create, optimize, and resume work from one simpler Projects workspace

**Improved**

Copywriter now gives each common job a clear starting point and carries the same workflow through setup, processing, and review.

**Start with the outcome you need** — From Projects, choose Create content for one new asset, Optimize content for a published page, or Bulk create from the More menu for a reviewed keyword list. Existing projects stay in the same library, so you can check a run before starting duplicate paid work.

**Choose the level of help in plain language** — For a new asset, choose Complete the draft, Review the brief first, or Write it myself. Each option says what Serena will complete before you commit, and the focused Create flow keeps the primary action unavailable until you make the choice.

**Keep language and market decisions visible** — If a project's language or location differs from the workspace, topic, or selected market, Copywriter shows the mismatch before work begins while preserving your ability to use the intentional project-specific settings.

**Follow one consistent progress story** — Autopilot now uses the same five customer-facing stages from research through preparation for review. Refreshing or returning to a project resumes the current state, and recoverable finishing work continues without asking you to create another project.

See [Creating a content project](https://help.rankability.com/copywriter/creating-a-content-project) or [Optimizing existing content](https://help.rankability.com/copywriter/optimizing-existing-content) for the current workflows.

## Tracker - Ask Serena about a report and read richer ChatGPT results

**Improved**

Tracker now makes it easier to move from a result to an explanation and to understand structured results captured from ChatGPT.

**Take the exact report to Serena** — Choose Ask Serena from a non-portal Tracker report to open a dedicated conversation grounded in that client, project, keyword, and report. You can investigate a change or compare evidence without rebuilding the context by hand.

**Read map businesses as businesses** — ChatGPT map results can show the captured business name and available details such as image, rating, category, and open status. Use Copy names to move the returned names into comparison or follow-up research.

**Keep ads separate from map listings** — Sponsored creative is presented separately when the provider returns enough ad detail. A map business is not mislabeled as an advertiser simply because it has a name or logo, and unavailable structured fields remain unavailable instead of being converted into a false zero.

See [Understanding the Track overview](https://help.rankability.com/track/reporter-executive-summary) and [Reading AI answers](https://help.rankability.com/track/ai-answers-tab) for interpretation guidance.

## Copywriter v5.14 - Copywriter credits are now simpler—and up to 75% lower

**Announcement**

We've standardized Copywriter pricing around completed work. The cost no longer changes depending on whether you use Editorial mode or Autopilot.

**One simple price per outcome** — The new rates for full-platform customers are: completed new content asset, 750 credits; completed existing-content optimization, 400 credits; successful user-requested full-document rewrite, 250 credits. Research and brief work alone, automatic finishing, manual editing, publishing, and exporting cost 0 credits.

**Up to 75% lower** — Previously, a new content asset could cost 3,000 credits through Autopilot, 2,100 credits for a brief and draft, or a different amount based on the selected research sources. A completed new content asset now costs 750 credits. That means you can save 75% compared with the previous Autopilot rate and 64% compared with the previous brief-and-draft rate.

**More completed content on every plan** — This significantly increases how many content assets can be completed with the credits included in each plan: Starter, up to 13; Growth, up to 40; Scale, up to 100; Agency, up to 266.

**You pay for the completed outcome** — If work fails before producing the billable outcome, its reservation is released. Automatic retries and repairs do not create another Copywriter charge. An Autopilot run reaches its charge point once it has produced a usable draft, even if a later finishing step still needs attention.

See the current [credit costs reference](https://help.rankability.com/account-and-settings/credit-costs-reference), then open [Copywriter](https://app.rankability.com/copywriter) to put your credits to work.

## Serena - Turn approved site fixes into reviewable GitHub changes

**New**

Serena can now move supported technical website work from diagnosis to a bounded GitHub pull request instead of stopping at recommendations.

**You stay in control** — Connect the correct repository and choose how Serena may act: ask before creating a change, automatically prepare a pull request, or use the broader access your organization has explicitly allowed. Repository changes remain scoped and reviewable rather than writing directly to the default branch.

**Follow the work without starting over** — Serena preserves the objective through connection steps and refreshes, shows the current work state in chat, and records the result in Activity. When a pull request exists, you can open it directly and follow its checks and merge state.

**Verify supported fixes after deployment** — Once you deploy a change, Serena can recheck supported URL-specific Site Auditor findings and distinguish verified fixes from issues that remain open.

See [what Serena can do](https://help.rankability.com/serena/what-serena-can-do) and review the execution boundary before approving a repository change.

## Activity - See what needs attention, what is running, and what was completed

**New**

Activity is now a clearer client workspace for deciding what to do next and confirming what Rankability already delivered.

**Start with the real priorities** — The Priority view separates work waiting on you, work currently running, important alerts, and the strongest recommended next actions. The Activity badge counts items that actually need human review instead of every raw monitoring condition.

**Keep alerts useful** — Critical and warning conditions are grouped in the Alerts view, while substantive knowledge-source changes and broken sources can surface as client-level actions instead of remaining buried in source history.

**Keep a durable record** — Serena actions and other completed outputs appear in History with the available result link, status, and timing. This makes Activity useful for both the next decision and the record of work already performed.

Learn how to use each view in [Using Activity](https://help.rankability.com/activity/tasks-board).

## Copywriter - Move researched keywords into ready-to-run content batches

**Improved**

The handoff from Researcher to Copywriter now carries the selected keywords with it, so you can move from an approved keyword list to content setup without retyping the work.

**One keyword or a complete batch** — Choose Create content for one saved keyword or select several and choose Send to Copywriter. The single-asset topic or multiple-asset table opens already populated, with up to 100 selected keywords ready for review.

**Confirm the decisions that shape the output** — Copywriter now keeps workspace language and location defaults together, while research sources remain an explicit per-asset choice. It also requires an explicit page format for every valid asset before paid work begins. This reduces accidental wrong-language drafts and article-shaped output for commercial or service pages.

Review the keywords, remove duplicates, confirm each asset's format and estimate, then start the batch. See [Managing keyword lists](https://help.rankability.com/researcher/managing-keyword-lists) and [Creating a content project](https://help.rankability.com/copywriter/creating-a-content-project).

## Serena - Plan content without creating competing pages

**New**

Before creating a content cluster, Serena can now review the client's existing content portfolio and turn the proposal into a decision you can correct.

**Check what already exists** — Serena compares proposed topics with client-scoped Copywriter projects, the latest Site Auditor crawl, recent Search Console pages, and tracked keywords.

**Choose the right action per topic** — Each recommendation is labeled Create, Update existing, Consolidate, or Skip. You can edit the action and target before confirming the plan, and Serena revalidates existing-page targets before creating work.

**Avoid unnecessary new pages** — Approved updates create optimize-mode projects for the selected existing page, matching projects are reused, and Consolidate or Skip decisions do not create duplicate content projects. This gives content planning a practical cannibalization check without allowing Serena to change a live customer page directly.

Start with [what Serena can do](https://help.rankability.com/serena/what-serena-can-do), then review every proposed action before creating the cluster.
