Small, precise fixes to the inbox and publishing surfaces, shipped almost daily.
Statusbrew publishes granular entries at a near-daily rate, each covering one change with setup steps included. The recent set is split between Engage, the shared inbox — bulk removal of internal tags, conversation counts that stay put during recalculation instead of flashing zero — and publishing, where YouTube audience settings now persist as defaults. Notification preferences were also broken out of a single Watchers group into individually toggleable Mentions, Automations and Channel Health Alerts.
Brand24 is repositioning from social listening to tracking how AI models describe you.
The listening panel still gets steady work — a redesigned infographic, restored emotion analysis, faster queries on the largest projects — but the new surface area is AI Visibility, which monitors how ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overview answer questions about a brand. Brand Assistant has moved from a query box to an agent that selects its own tools and reads the open web. Detection itself has widened past text into spoken audio on YouTube.

Notification preferences were also broken out of a single Watchers group into individually toggleable Mentions, Automations and Channel Health Alerts.
The work targets friction that shows up at volume: teams tagging in bulk and needing to untag in bulk, operators watching counts they cannot trust, publishers re-selecting the same YouTube audience setting on every upload. Alongside it, terminology is being aligned with the API — Board becoming Project in the create and edit dialogs — which is the kind of cleanup a product does once integrations start mattering. Nothing here changes the shape of the product; everything sharpens what is already there.
Expect the same daily cadence of narrow Engage and publishing refinements, with more surfaces gaining bulk actions and per-network options that persist as defaults.

Two bets run at once. The first is that "where does my brand appear" now means AI answers as much as social posts, which is why AI Visibility gained a Sources view and self-serve activation within weeks of each other. The second is that the interface to all of it becomes conversational rather than a dashboard, with Brand Assistant on one side and a Brand24 app inside ChatGPT on the other. Work on the base panel reads as maintenance while attention moves up-stack.
Expect AI Visibility to keep absorbing the feature budget — competitor comparison and more monitored models are the obvious gaps — and to graduate from a trial add-on into a priced tier.
