AEOsome changelog

A help center, and numbers that agree on every page

Wed, 07 Oct 2026 12:00:00 GMT

Guides for every screen now live at docs.aeosome.com, and the dashboard reads the same figure the same way wherever it appears.

New: Help center. docs.aeosome.com walks through connecting a store, adding products, reading your visibility and shipping fixes, with a page for each screen in the app.
Fixed: Every page's numbers agree. Overview, Products and a product's own page now compute a metric the same way, so the same product never shows two different scores.
Improved: Urgent fixes come first. Ship next leads with the fixes marked urgent, and each engine appears once in a fix's chips instead of once per answer.
Fixed: Question history follows your plan. A question's past answers go back as far as your plan's history, no further, and the landscape filters name the site they filter by.
Fixed: Straight to log in. Opening the app while signed out takes you to the log in page instead of a blank screen.

Store pages in the index, and one calm layout for the dashboard

Tue, 06 Oct 2026 12:00:00 GMT

Every brand in the AI Shopping Index gets its own page with its findings, and every dashboard screen now shares one frame.

New: One page per brand. Each store that AI assistants cite at least five times gets a page showing its findings, its average position and how it does at every shopping stage and on every engine. Old links redirect to the new address.
New: Unlock the full report. A store page offers its full report. Check my store asks for your store's website and an email at that domain, so a report only goes to the people who run the store.
New: How we measure, in public. The methodology page lists the questions asked, what counts as a citation and how visibility is computed. Small samples carry a badge so you know how much weight a number can take.
Improved: Every screen on one shared frame. Products, Fixes, Competitors, Citations, Audits, Settings and the rest now share one page layout with a status line, and they load, empty and fail the same way. A deleted competitor reads as not found rather than as an error.
Improved: Every number has its period. KPIs say the period they cover, counts use the right plural, and engines are named the same everywhere.
New: About, Contact and policies on the site. Our policies are part of the site rather than an embed, About and Contact pages tell you who we are and how to reach us, and a cookie choice made once holds on the site, the app and the blog.

Steadier sign-in and a cleaner overview

Mon, 05 Oct 2026 12:00:00 GMT

Fixes for the rough edges merchants reported in the first days of October.

Fixed: No more reload loop when signed out. The app no longer reloads itself over and over after a session ends, and a login link that failed on some accounts now works.
Fixed: Overview fits on every screen. The KPI row on the overview no longer clips, and Verify names the products each result belongs to.
Improved: Upgrade prompts say only what is true. An upgrade prompt names exactly what the next plan adds, including the engines it scans.
Fixed: No jumping on mobile. The competitors leaderboard and the integration cards in Settings hold their place while they load instead of shifting the page.

WooCommerce stores, connected

Wed, 30 Sep 2026 12:00:00 GMT

AEOsome now works with WooCommerce as well as Shopify: connect a store, import its catalog and track it like any other.

New: Connect a WooCommerce store. Add your store's address, approve the connection in WooCommerce and AEOsome imports your products in the background, showing progress as it goes.
Improved: Clear reconnect when access is revoked. If a store's access key is revoked, the integration card says so and offers to reconnect, and a failed first import tells you what went wrong.
Improved: First Shopify sync respects your plan. The first import from Shopify brings in as many products as your plan covers, no more.
Fixed: Log in and sign up stop bouncing. The log in and sign up pages no longer redirect back and forth, and a session refresh happens once even when several tabs ask at the same moment.

Answers the same day, and scan states that tell the truth

Tue, 29 Sep 2026 12:00:00 GMT

Scans now say exactly where they are, failed questions can be retried, and turning on an engine starts answers that day.

Improved: Answers the day you turn an engine on. Enabling an engine in Settings queues its questions straight away instead of waiting for the next scheduled scan.
New: Retry failed questions. When questions in your first scan fail, the progress banner offers to retry just those, and a finished scan says whether it completed or failed.
Improved: Engines we can stand behind. AEOsome tracks ChatGPT and Google AI Mode, the engines whose answers carry product cards. We removed engines whose answers never showed product data, so no column on your dashboard is filled with a zero that means nothing.

Plans, checkout and billing that hold together

Sat, 26 Sep 2026 12:00:00 GMT

The plan you pick at sign up carries through checkout and back, and billing handles the cases it used to drop.

New: Your plan from sign up to checkout. Choose a plan on the pricing page and it follows you through sign up, checkout and back to the app, with a billing card in Settings that shows where you stand.
Fixed: Refunds, plan changes and discounts. Refunds, upgrades, downgrades, discounts and a checkout you cancel all leave your account on the right plan.
Improved: Emails retry until they arrive. Account and report emails are queued and retried, so a brief outage no longer loses one.

The AI Shopping Visibility Index goes public

Fri, 25 Sep 2026 12:00:00 GMT

A monthly, public measure of which stores AI shopping assistants name, by category, plus public pricing and a free plan.

New: AI Shopping Visibility Index. See which online stores AI shopping assistants name when shoppers ask what to buy, by category, measured every month.
New: Check your store. Enter your store's website and we email you its AI shopping visibility report: where assistants name it and who they name instead.
New: Public pricing and a plan picker. Plans and prices are on aeosome.com/pricing, and you can change plan from inside the app. The Free plan shows what each upgrade adds and what it costs.
New: First scan summary. On every plan, the overview opens with a summary of your first scan: what was asked, where you were named and where you were not.
Improved: New navigation, hero and footer. The site's navigation, opening and footer were redesigned around the index and the domain check.

From fix to measured lift

Wed, 23 Sep 2026 12:00:00 GMT

Ship a fix, and AEOsome checks again and tells you whether it moved anything. Plus a readiness score for agentic checkout and revenue from AI shoppers.

New: Measured lift after a fix. After you ship a fix, Verify asks the same questions again and shows whether your product's visibility changed.
New: Agentic checkout readiness. A readiness score and checklist for each product show what an AI agent needs to buy it on a shopper's behalf, and what is missing.
New: Revenue from AI shoppers. For Shopify stores, the overview matches order revenue to the AI assistant that sent the shopper, and lists the products driving it.

Readable answers, and a faster website

Fri, 18 Sep 2026 12:00:00 GMT

Captured answers read like prose, dark mode is easier on the eye, and aeosome.com loads faster.

Improved: Answers you can read. A captured AI answer renders as readable text with every brand in it marked, so you can see at a glance who was named.
Fixed: Dark mode fixes. Text that was hard to read in dark mode now meets contrast, and the citation-only banner is legible in both themes.
Improved: The Shopify app matches. The app inside Shopify admin speaks the same language as the web dashboard, in Shopify's own look.
Improved: A faster website. aeosome.com is now static pages that load fast, return a real 404 for a missing page, and load no third-party script before you consent.

Fixes that write to Shopify

Wed, 16 Sep 2026 12:00:00 GMT

One loop from finding to fix: see where you are missing, apply the fix to your store, and check it worked.

New: Apply a fix to your Shopify store. A fix can now be written straight to your Shopify product, with a guide for the ones you make by hand, and a re-check once it is live.
Fixed: Only real rivals. A site that only writes about products, such as a review blog, is no longer counted as a rival store in your competitors.
New: One account across Shopify and the web. Installing from Shopify and signing in on the web reach the same account, and Shopify merchants can pay through Shopify billing.
Fixed: One bad image no longer breaks the page. A product with an unusual image no longer stops the dashboard from loading.

Security, and a site that only claims what is built

Thu, 10 Sep 2026 12:00:00 GMT

A round of hardening across the product, and a website that lists only the engines, platforms and pages that exist.

Fixed: Security hardening. Every request for store data is checked against your organization, store addresses are validated before we fetch them, and logs no longer keep sensitive values.
Fixed: Purchases always land. A buyer whose purchase did not attach to their account can now claim it, and a refunded account moves back to the right plan.
Improved: Scans that keep their schedule. Scheduled scans pick up the products that are actually due, a store sync that cannot succeed backs off instead of retrying forever, and quota is returned for questions that never ran.
Fixed: The site says only what is true. The website stopped listing engines, platforms and pages that were not built yet.

A weekly digest, exports and an llms.txt for your store

Fri, 21 Aug 2026 12:00:00 GMT

A large release: new page checks, exports, a weekly email and per-engine analytics, plus fixes for paths that had never run.

New: Weekly digest. A weekly email sums up how your products did in AI answers and what changed.
New: llms.txt generator. AEOsome writes the llms.txt file for your store that tells AI assistants what your site offers, ready to publish.
New: AI crawler check. Page checks test whether AI crawlers are allowed to read your product pages.
New: Export to CSV, analytics by engine. Export your shopper questions and their results, and narrow share of voice and the shopping journey to a single engine.
Fixed: Failure is not shown as empty. When data fails to load, the page says so instead of looking as if you had no results, and the accessibility gaps on these screens were closed.

Guided tours

Sat, 04 Jul 2026 12:00:00 GMT

A first look around the dashboard, whenever you want one.

New: Take a tour. A guided tour points out each part of the dashboard. Start it again any time from your account menu.

Questions that sound like shoppers

Wed, 20 May 2026 12:00:00 GMT

The questions AEOsome asks on your behalf now read like real shoppers, and you can add your own.

Improved: Natural shopper questions. Questions generated from your catalog are phrased the way people actually ask an assistant what to buy.
New: Add and remove your own questions. Add a question you know your shoppers ask to any product, and delete the ones that do not fit.
Improved: Metrics on audit pages. Audit pages show the numbers behind each finding, so you can see why a page was flagged.
Improved: A refreshed brand. A new logo, colours and theme across the site and the app.

Free beta with visible usage

Fri, 01 May 2026 12:00:00 GMT

Everyone joins on one free beta plan, with usage shown in the app so you always know what is left.

New: Free beta plan and usage meter. Every account starts on the free beta plan, and the app shows how much of its quota you have used.
Improved: Better questions. The question generator was tuned to ask more varied, more relevant questions about each product.

Product monitoring and smoother onboarding

Fri, 24 Apr 2026 12:00:00 GMT

Watch each product's answers over time, and get set up in one guided flow.

New: Product monitor. Each product has its own monitor showing the answers it appears in and how that changes over time. The dashboard refreshes itself while a scan runs.
Improved: Onboarding in one flow. Setup is one guided sequence, including a step to invite your team.
Improved: Shopify variants. Product variants such as sizes and colours sync from Shopify with the product.

Questions generated from your catalog

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 12:00:00 GMT

AEOsome writes the shopper questions for each product itself, and the dashboard got a full redesign.

New: Generated shopper questions. For each product, AEOsome writes the questions a shopper might ask an AI assistant, from the product's own details.
Improved: Dashboard redesign. A redesigned dashboard built on cleaner data, so each page shows what was measured for your products.

A new website

Mon, 30 Mar 2026 12:00:00 GMT

aeosome.com was redesigned, with dark mode, a responsive layout and faster loading.

New: New aeosome.com. A new landing page that shows what AEOsome does, with dark mode and a layout that works on any screen.

Product cards and competitor tracking

Sat, 31 Jan 2026 12:00:00 GMT

See the product cards AI assistants show shoppers, and who appears next to you.

New: Product cards in answers. When an assistant answers with shopping cards, AEOsome captures them and shows which products it picked.
New: Competitors and positions. Track the competitors named alongside you and an overview of the position you appear in.

Connect your Shopify store

Sat, 10 Jan 2026 12:00:00 GMT

Bring your catalog in from Shopify instead of adding products by hand.

New: Shopify connection. Connect a Shopify store and AEOsome imports its products, ready to track.

Where it started

Wed, 31 Dec 2025 12:00:00 GMT

The first version of AEOsome: ask AI assistants about your products and see what they say.

New: The first dashboard. Questions about your products asked on a schedule, the answers and citations that came back, your position in them and recommendations to improve it.
New: Product page audits. An audit of each product page lists what keeps it out of AI answers, including readiness for agentic checkout.
