This release introduces deeper performance insights and actionable optimization workflows inside Contentpen.

Analytics dashboard

You can now connect Contentpen directly with Google Search Console to view search performance data in one place.

The Analytics dashboard shows:

• Clicks, impressions, CTR, and average position
• Top keywords by visibility and engagement
• Top pages based on organic search performance

This data is synced directly from Google Search Console and reflects the latest available metrics.

Opportunities dashboard

The Opportunities dashboard analyzes your search performance data to identify content that needs improvement.

It automatically highlights:

• Quick wins – pages close to higher rankings
• CTR opportunities – pages with impressions but low click-through rates
• Content decay – pages losing traffic or rankings over time

Each opportunity includes AI-driven analysis based on:

• Search performance data
• SERP patterns
• Page-level content signals

Suggestions are specific to the selected blog and focused on improving the identified issue.

Direct content refresh

For each opportunity, you can use the Content Refresh option to apply suggested improvements directly to the blog.

This allows you to:

• Update existing content instead of rewriting from scratch
• Improve alignment with current search intent
• Optimize pages based on real performance data

This update brings a smarter, faster writing experience with our new Slash Command and GPT-5.1 engine. We’ve also added Topic Clusters to help you build SEO authority, a seamless Shopify integration, and the much-awaited Dark Mode.

🧠 Topic Clusters

Build authority faster with our new Topic Clusters feature. Located under the Keywords section, this tool helps you organize your content strategy by grouping related keywords and articles. This ensures you cover a subject comprehensively, signaling expertise to search engines and boosting your topical authority.

⚡️ The "Slash" Command & GPT-5.1

We’ve rebuilt the editor experience to keep you in the flow.

• Slash Command: Just type / to instantly open a Notion-style menu. Add headings, lists, or trigger AI prompts without lifting your hands from the keyboard.
• Powered by GPT-5.1: Our in-article AI is now running on GPT-5.1, delivering significantly smarter, more human-like content generation and editing capabilities.
• Enhanced AI Menu: Highlight any text to see our new contextual AI menu—improve writing, fix grammar, or change tone instantly.

🔄 Content Refresh Template

A specialized template designed to breathe new life into your existing content.

🌑 Dark Mode

You can now switch Contentpen to Dark Mode for a sleek, eye-friendly interface that looks great day or night.

🔗 Shareable Public Links

Need approval from a client or feedback from a teammate? You can now generate a Public Link for any article. This allows anyone with the link to view the content (no-index) without needing a login.

✨ Improvements

• AI Meta Descriptions: Added an option to automatically generate SEO-optimized meta descriptions using AI.
• Internal Linking Upgrade: You can now fetch content context directly by pasting a URL inside the Internal Linking recipe.
• Bulk Actions: Added the ability to Bulk Delete and Favorite articles from the list
• Meta Description Bug: Fixed an issue where the meta description was occasionally saving as empty.
• Non-English Formatting: The "Unchanged" sentence case option now respects formatting constraints for non-English languages.
