Changelog

What’s new

Everything we ship to ActivateFirst, newest first.

July 13, 2026

A real logo

  • ImprovedRetired the placeholder “AF” box for a proper ActivateFirst mark — a rising-crossbar “A” that reads like a top grade. It’s now the favicon, app icon, nav, 404, share cards, and report headers.

July 13, 2026

Landing audits now check technical credibility

  • NewLanding page audits now inspect the signals a screenshot can’t see: a missing or default framework favicon, and missing Open Graph / meta tags that make shared links preview blank. You get a pass/fail checklist, and these now factor into the Trust score.

July 13, 2026

Pricing you can actually picture

  • ImprovedYour balance and the packs now lead with the reports they unlock — "3 onboarding audits or 15 landing audits" — instead of an abstract credit count. Credits are still the unit under the hood; nothing about your balance changed.

July 13, 2026

Polish: branded favicon, 404 page, and report share cards

  • NewShared audit reports now get their own branded preview card with the score and top finding, matching the teardown cards.
  • ImprovedReplaced the default favicon with the ActivateFirst mark.
  • ImprovedA branded 404 page instead of the default framework one.

July 10, 2026

Branded link previews when you share

  • NewSharing an ActivateFirst link now shows a branded preview card instead of a random page image.
  • NewEvery published teardown generates its own share card with the product name, score, and top finding — so a shared teardown looks like the teardown, not a generic homepage.

July 10, 2026

A public methodology page

  • NewA new Methodology page lays out exactly how every audit is scored: the landing page rubric (Clarity, Friction, Trust, Performance), the onboarding rubric (Time to first value, Straight-line path, Friction, Hooks), the honest 0-100 score bands, and the real-user evidence layer.

July 9, 2026

New homepage: evidence-based activation + consulting tiers

  • NewHomepage repositioned around evidence-based activation. The approach section explains the 3-step method: baseline with real ICP users, diagnose the leaks, prove the fix before it ships.
  • NewFour consulting tiers now on the homepage: free score, Expert Activation Audit (from $2,500), Evidence Audit (from $6,000), and Activation Optimization Project (from $15,000).
  • Improved"Book a call" added as a second CTA in the hero and footer alongside the free score entry point.

June 5, 2026

Re-run your audit and see what improved

  • NewMade changes to your landing page? Re-run the audit and we’ll show you exactly what moved — score deltas per dimension, plus which issues you resolved, what’s still open, and anything new.
  • ImprovedLanding-audit scoring is now more consistent run-to-run, so a re-audit reflects real changes to your page rather than scoring noise.
  • ImprovedRe-running a page that hasn’t changed? We now detect it and check before charging — and label any score differences as normal variance, so you’re never guessing whether your edits moved the needle.

June 5, 2026

June 4, 2026

Shareable reports & a cleaner output experience

  • NewShare any audit with a public link — anyone can view the full scored report, no login required.
  • ImprovedEvery output (full report, teardown, LinkedIn post, card) now opens rendered in your browser instead of downloading a file.
  • ImprovedLive screen recording is clearer — we open your product in a dedicated window so there’s no doubt what’s being captured, and stopping is one click.
  • FixedFrame extraction now runs natively in your browser — faster, and it handles long recordings without choking.
