Changelog

AI enables a hybrid approach to creating and editing sitemaps - user always makes all decisions, while routine work is done by AI.

A new sitemap AI assistant BETA is released - chat-like sidebar where user is invited to send text messages to request changes in the sitemap. More information in related help article.

Explore the new dashboard - better, faster, cooler.

The dashboard is the core of everything - users take their first steps here, start exploring the product, and quickly reach the point where the dashboard becomes an everyday's workstation.

This update is pivotal for both our users and ourselves! It’s not only easier to navigate and better looking, but also serves as the foundation for the exciting new features we’re planning in 2026.

The fourth theme released - Bold

In pursuit to provide our users with new feel&look for their projects, we created a new theme. Bold theme brings extra contrast, crisp readability, and a sharper look that makes every project stand out. Switch it on in Project Settings and see your sitemaps in a whole new light.

Now you can switch the board into a bird’s-eye SEO view and edit everything in real time. Add titles, descriptions, and H1 tags, upload Open Graph images, or even import all tags from any website just by pasting a URL. You can also ask AI to generate them for you and finally export everything as a table or ready-to-use code.

Two updates that elevate the commenting experience:‍

• When you switch on artboard comment mode, a panel appears showing every discussion on that artboard, making it easy to track and locate conversations. This reduces the risk of a thread being lost or overlooked. You can also toggle the visibility of resolved threads.
• Our Team Plan users can now enable guests, who don’t have an account in Octopus, to comment on projects. This feature has been requested many times, and we believe it will streamline feedback exchange between our users, their teams, and their clients.

Expanding limits of commenting feature, enabling users to communicate with their clients, colleagues, and friends right on hth artboard. Available on all plans, including free, this feature will become a cornerstone of a successful teamwork.

Before this update, content mode wasn't self-sufficient as user required to exit it to manage page structure - this created unnecessary turbulence in creative process. Now, our users can work in content mode and add new, change sequence or remove blocks without switching to the artboard.

From now on, drag&select pages is enabled to all users - simplifying the work with larg numbers of pages. Whenever it's required to copy, move, or delete multiple pages, just select them with mouse cursor.

To activate, select multi-select mode in the bottom toolbar.

We've completed a complete rewrite of Redux actions to enhance data integrity and ensure consistent project progress tracking. This update improves the reliability of state management, reducing sync issues and what's most important - enables us to deliver even cooler features in near future, things that we always wanted to create, but technical constraints didn't let us move as quick.

Long-awaited update to Publish, enabling customising the website to your liking. Published document-like websites are easy to share and super-quick to update.
