VisRank Updates

A public record of product improvements, scan quality changes, report guidance updates, and monitoring enhancements. We keep this page general and privacy-safe: no customer sites, private reports, credentials, or internal implementation details are published here.

  1. October 27, 2026
    Released

    New bold VisRank design and an animated product explainer

    Every VisRank page now uses a new high-contrast design, the homepage has a short animated explainer of the scan-to-fix workflow, and key pages load their main content faster on mobile.

    • Redesigned the homepage, pricing, free tools, guides, blog, reports, dashboard, and sign-in pages with bold colors, thick outlines, and larger, clearer typography.

    • Replaced the homepage product video with a short animated explainer that walks through a scan, the scored report, and the fix workflow. It starts only when it scrolls into view and respects reduced-motion settings.

    • Scores, severity labels, and report cards now share one color system, so high, medium, and low priority issues are easier to tell apart at a glance.

    • Kept motion lightweight: section reveals and the reading progress bar use built-in browser scroll animations instead of extra scripts, and they switch off for visitors who prefer reduced motion.

    • In mobile lab tests, the homepage, pricing, free SEO checker, and blog articles show their main content sooner than before, with no layout shift and improved accessibility.

    • Added clearer screen-reader labels to scan forms and tidied smaller layout details on compact dashboard cards.

    • Scanning, reports, checkout, Full Report, Monitoring, Fix with AI, and account flows work the same way as before; this update changes how VisRank looks, not how it scores websites.

    Released

    New VisRank design and interface optimization

    VisRank has a refreshed visual design across the product, with clearer reports, smoother page interactions, and a more consistent experience on desktop and mobile.

    • Updated the visual design language so public pages, reports, pricing, authentication, and dashboard areas feel more consistent.

    • Improved report readability with clearer cards, stronger spacing, better contrast, and more resilient text wrapping for long URLs and issue titles.

    • Added lightweight page motion in selected areas so important sections appear more smoothly without making the interface feel slow.

    • Refined responsive layouts so core workflows are easier to use on desktop, tablet, and mobile screens.

    • Optimized the frontend experience while keeping existing scan, report, dashboard, checkout, authentication, and Monitoring flows familiar for users.

    Released

    Important-page scanning and more accurate AI fixes

    VisRank now evaluates a focused set of important public pages, applies checks where they are relevant, and produces more precise report and AI-fix guidance.

    • Scans now look beyond the entered URL and evaluate important public pages such as core product, service, pricing, company, contact, and recently relevant content when those pages are discoverable.

    • Checks are applied according to page purpose, so a contact page, pricing page, article, and product page are not expected to expose the same signals.

    • Repeated findings are organized by affected page, making reports clearer without hiding page-specific problems or counting one shared issue many times.

    • Improved answer-first, structured-content, schema, social metadata, local, security, and entity checks to reduce misleading findings and produce more useful evidence.

    • Fix with AI now uses the affected page context more carefully, keeps page-specific fixes separate, avoids unsupported claims and placeholders, and validates generated output before saving it to the report.

    • Monitoring automatically rechecks the same important-page view over time, so customers can see whether fixes worked and catch issues that appear again after content, template, or site updates.

    • Monitoring remains the best fit for websites that change regularly because one report is only a snapshot, while ongoing checks can surface fixed issues, new issues, still-open issues, and issues that came back.

    • We continue improving the scanner, report evidence, and AI-fix safeguards so results become more accurate, practical, and consistent across different websites and platforms.

    Released

    Fix My Issues, Claude-powered AI fixes, and new diagnose-only tools

    Paid reports now include saved Fix with AI outputs inside Fix My Issues, while new free tools show diagnosis only and keep AI generation behind paid access.

    • Renamed the guided repair flow to Fix My Issues so users have a clearer next step after reading a report.

    • Added Fix with AI for eligible schema, content, metadata, discovery, trust, and entity issues in paid reports. It uses a top Claude AI model to turn report evidence into ready-to-copy guidance, code, page copy, and validation steps.

    • AI fixes are saved back into the report after generation, so users do not lose the result after refreshing the page.

    • Full Report includes 3 saved AI fixes for that paid report; Monitoring includes 10 AI fixes per account per calendar month.

    • Added AI Search Readiness Checker to show public answer-readiness, entity, trust, and AI citation issues without revealing the fix steps in the free view.

    • Added Why AI Does Not Mention Me to diagnose public trust, entity, proof, and business-clarity gaps that can make a brand harder to understand.

    • Added Compare Your Site vs Competitor so users can enter two URLs and compare public scores plus issue names before deciding whether to unlock fixes or start Monitoring.

    • Free tools diagnose public signals only and do not claim that ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Grok, or other AI systems mentioned or did not mention a brand.

    • Monitoring remains the verify-over-time tier: rescans remove fixed issues from Fix My Issues and surface new or returning problems later.

  5. May 15, 2026
    Released

    Fix My Issues and Monitoring limits updated

    The dashboard now gives paid users a clearer step-by-step Fix My Issues flow, and Monitoring plan limits are easier to understand.

    • Added a guided Fix My Issues flow that starts with website platform selection so instructions can match WordPress, Shopify, Wix/Squarespace, Webflow, or custom sites more closely.

    • Fix instructions now explain where to find each setting, what to change, and when to save, publish, deploy, clear cache, or check the live page.

    • Monitoring users now see rescan as a final check step after completing fixes, instead of seeing it throughout every issue step.

    • One-time Full Report users still get the full issue list and fix guidance, while automatic re-checking remains a Monitoring feature.

    • Monitoring now includes 3 monitored Full Reports total. Additional sites can still be added by buying a one-time Full Report while keeping Monitoring benefits active.

    • Updated public plan wording and AI discovery files so the product limits are clearer and consistent.

    Released

    Deep AI visibility checks now run in the background

    Paid reports and Monitoring now have a stronger AI visibility layer for rendered pages, sitewide gaps, competitor readiness, and more specific AI visibility alerts.

    • Added background deep AI visibility checks so heavier analysis does not slow down normal free scans.

    • Paid and Monitoring reports can now show a Deep AI Visibility status while rendered page checks are queued, running, completed, or need retry.

    • Added sitewide AI visibility evidence across key public pages, including average AI Citation, AEO, and Trust scores, weakest pages, and repeated gaps.

    • Monitoring competitor tracking now compares deeper readiness signals such as prompt coverage, schema readiness, proof signals, and llms.txt readiness instead of only the headline score.

    • Strengthened entity proof checks for paid and Monitoring scans by looking for consistency between on-site identity signals and linked public profiles.

    • Monitoring alerts now include more specific AI visibility problems, including llms.txt quality, deep schema readiness, and prompt coverage changes.

    • Kept the experience resilient: if a deep background check cannot finish, the main report and fix guidance still remain available.

  7. May 7, 2026
    Released

    Monitoring reports now show what changed

    Monitoring reports now include change history, fix progress, smarter AI visibility alerts, and more useful weekly briefs.

    • Monitoring now tracks full scan snapshots so eligible reports can show what changed since the previous scan.

    • Reports can summarize fixed issues, new issues, issues that came back, still-open issues, score movement, and AI Citation movement.

    • Monitoring alerts now cover important AI visibility problems such as AI crawler blocking, missing llms.txt, schema changes, noindex changes, canonical changes, and AI Citation drops.

    • Weekly Monitoring briefs now include issue changes, AI Citation status, the next best action, and a link back to the updated report.

    • The dashboard stays simple with a compact Latest Changes, Next Best Action, and Open Alerts summary while deeper details remain in the report.

    • One-time paid reports remain stable historical reports; fresh homepage scans do not overwrite paid reports, while eligible Monitoring rescans continue to update monitored and separately purchased reports.

  8. May 7, 2026
    Released

    AI Citation Readiness is now in reports

    VisRank now checks whether a page is easier for AI search tools to extract, verify, and cite in generated answers.

    • Added a separate AI Citation Readiness Score for answer-first blocks, extractable formats, buyer-intent prompts, entity context, proof, discovery, and freshness.

    • Full reports now show AI Citation evidence and fix guidance without changing historical overall Visibility Score comparisons.

    • Monitoring rescans refresh AI Citation evidence, and weekly email briefs include the AI Citation score when available.

    • Created a public AI Citation Audit page so users can understand and run the new check from the Free Tools menu.

    • Kept the score honest: it measures citation readiness and does not promise guaranteed inclusion in ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, or Perplexity.

  9. May 5, 2026
    Released

    Free llms.txt Generator & Validator added

    VisRank now includes a free account-based tool to check, generate, copy and download llms.txt files for AI search discovery.

    • Added a free account-based llms.txt Generator & Validator for AI search, AEO and GEO workflows.

    • The tool checks whether a website has llms.txt and flags common structure, page coverage and safety issues.

    • Registered users can generate a clean llms.txt file, copy it, download it and publish it at the site root.

    • The validator warns against including private customer data, admin URLs, API paths, dashboard pages or credentials.

    • The new page is available from the Free Tools menu on desktop and mobile.

    • Full VisRank scans continue to check llms.txt as one AEO signal alongside schema, crawler access, entity clarity and answer-ready content.

  10. May 5, 2026
    Released

    Trust & Entity Visibility Score is now available

    VisRank now checks whether a website is easy for search engines and AI answer engines to verify as a real, trustworthy entity.

    • Added a separate Trust & Entity Visibility Score for business identity, trust pages, public proof, social profiles, and entity schema signals.

    • Created a free Trust & Entity Audit entry point so anyone can quickly check whether their site has visible About, Contact, legal, proof, and identity signals.

    • Full reports and Monitoring now show deeper evidence for the Trust & Entity checks, including which signals were found and which need attention.

    • Monitoring rescans use the latest Trust & Entity checks, while historical overall score comparisons remain stable because the new score is reported separately.

    • Improved public navigation with a Free Tools menu so users can find SEO, AEO, local, AI search, and entity audit tools more easily.

    • Added the new audit page to the sitemap and product navigation, plus the optional llms.txt index for non-Google tools that choose to read it.

    Scan quality and report guidance improvements

    We improved scan accuracy, made issue detection more reliable, and expanded fix guidance so reports are clearer for non-technical users.

    • Improved scan accuracy across SEO, AI readiness, security, and local presence checks.

    • Reduced false positives and false negatives in contact, structured data, heading, and security signal detection.

    • Expanded issue guidance with clearer step-by-step fixes written for business owners, marketers, and developers.

    • Improved handling for service-area, remote, appointment-based, and local businesses.

    • Strengthened report quality checks before release so new scans and rescans return more consistent results.

    • Completed routine dependency and security maintenance to keep the product healthier behind the scenes.
