Saleshandy halves the API price of profiles and allows same-day multichannel follow-ups.
Saleshandy combines a cold outreach sequencer with its Lead Finder prospect database. Two November releases touch both halves: sequence steps can now be spaced in hours and minutes, so email, WhatsApp and call tasks can run the same day, and the Open API returns people profiles without an email reveal at 0.5 credit per row.
Surfer turns AI visibility into a to-do list, now reaching into server logs and off-page work.
Surfer now scores content for both Google rankings and AI-search citations, and its MCP server has left beta for Pro and higher plans. The October batch widens the AI-visibility surface: Recommendations now rank off-page moves like earning mentions and fixing sentiment, and a closed-beta Agent Analytics reads server logs to show which pages AI crawlers actually fetch. Distribution is broadening too, with the WordPress plugin now running the full Content Editor and the app shipping in French and Polish.

Lead Finder is turning into a data product sold beyond the app, with monthly refreshes, CSV exclusions and now cheaper API access for CRM enrichment. The sequencer is moving toward multichannel cadences where WhatsApp and calls sit next to email.
Expect more Open API endpoints or pricing tiers for Lead Finder data, and the November data refresh post around late month.

Since May the thread has been programmatic access plus AI-search measurement. API expansion led to MCP beta, and MCP is now generally available. Each AI-visibility release closes another gap between what Surfer measures and what it tells you to do, and that now extends beyond your own pages. Surfer is positioning itself as the system of record for how a brand appears in AI answers, not only as a writing aid.
Agent Analytics and the rebuilt Topical Map are both pre-release, so the next move is likely one of them opening up. Their data would probably feed into Recommendations the same way AI Tracker did in August.
