May 2026: team scoping, AI citation tracking, email integration.

Three capabilities across both products. Each one fixes something agency owners have been asking about — in plain language, none of them are clever features. They're the missing furniture.

This is shorter than our usual field notes because release notes should be. Here's what changed, why it matters, and exactly what's live today vs. launching soon. No hedging.

1. Team scoping on both products

The problem we kept hearing: "I want to add my junior account manager to ClientPulse, but I don't want them to see how much revenue every other account brings in, or which clients are red-flagged for the founder's eyes only." Same story on ContentPulse: "My content lead shouldn't have approval rights on every brand voice in the agency."

So we built three roles into both products:

• Owner — full access to everything. Billing, team, all clients, all settings. There's exactly one per agency.
• Admin — everything except billing and ownership transfer. Can invite teammates, manage all clients, change integrations. Built for agency partners and operations leads.
• Team Member — sees only the clients explicitly assigned to them. Junior account managers, content writers, project managers. They get the tools they need, not a view of the agency's whole P&L.

Two pieces of furniture that make this actually work in a small team:

Smart sign-up. When someone clicks an invite link from your agency, they join your agency — not a brand-new one of their own. No more orphan agency accounts with one stranded user that nobody knows what to do with.

Out-of-office cover. Set a backup teammate for any role. When you mark yourself out, alerts that would have pinged you route to your backup automatically. Goes both ways — back to you on the day you return.

If you're on the Aurora Suite, you get unlimited seats and a single invitation that lands a new teammate in both ClientPulse and ContentPulse with the right role. One invite, two products, one bill.

2. AI citation tracking on ContentPulse

"Why aren't we showing up when our customers ask ChatGPT about us?"

That's the question we kept getting from marketing-agency clients, and the honest answer until last month was: nobody can promise that. ChatGPT and Perplexity decide what to cite. You can't buy your way in.

What you can do is measure where you stand, watch it week over week, see how you rank against your client's competitors, and shape new content so the AI engines have something structured to find. That's exactly what ContentPulse does.

ContentPulse now probes ChatGPT 5 to 10 times a day with rotated prompts about your client's brand and topics. It records whether the brand was cited, where it ranked relative to named competitors, and what context the answer used. The output is a weekly scorecard inside your client's existing Improve page — not a new app, not a separate login.

It also ships a content brief generator. When you create a new piece in ContentPulse, you can toggle "Optimize for AI discoverability" and the brief comes back with semantic clusters, FAQ schema suggestions, internal linking hints, and structured-data directives. You write the piece, the brief gives the AI engines a fighting chance to find it.

Plus a technical SEO audit on each client domain: schema markup validation, meta-tag check, sitemap and robots.txt presence, and a page-speed score. Runs weekly automatically, on-demand whenever you click "Run audit."

Honest cut. ChatGPT is live today. Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews engines are coming soon. Claude and Gemini citation tracking are planned for a later release. We do not claim "get cited by ChatGPT." We claim what we actually do: track your AI citation frequency and improve discoverability over time, with provenance on every metric.

3. Email integration on ContentPulse

"I want ContentPulse to push the email I just approved into the client's Klaviyo, in their brand colors, with their logo, so they only need to click Send."

That request specifically. Live today.

Here's how it sits in the workflow you already use. You generate an email piece on Repurpose. It routes through the Decide page like any other content type — same approval flow, same client-review options. Once you approve, a "Push to draft" button appears with a provider chooser. Pick Klaviyo (or shortly, Mailchimp, Gmail, Outlook, or Slack), and the draft lands in your client's account as a fully styled HTML email — their logo, their color palette, their fonts, their voice. They review and send from their tool.

We deliberately stay draft-only. Aurora does not send marketing email on behalf of customers — we don't compete with Klaviyo on deliverability, and we don't want to be the reason your client's domain shows up on a blocklist. Their tool, their send button, their reputation.

Five starter templates ship in the first cut: newsletter, retention/win-back, onboarding step, announcement, and educational nurture. All five auto-apply your client's brand kit (logo, palette, fonts, voice tone) from the brand-kit substrate that already runs the rest of ContentPulse.

Honest cut. Klaviyo push is live today. Mailchimp, Gmail, Outlook, and Slack are coming soon.

What didn't change

Pricing didn't move. Tier caps on AI citation tracking and email drafts are published on the pricing page — Pro tier gets 1 client of AI tracking and 2 email providers, Agency tier gets 10 clients of AI tracking and all 4 providers with 500 drafts a month, Suite gets unlimited. Refund policy didn't move. EU data residency didn't move. The honesty matrix on the ClientPulse site still publishes every source's actual status.

How to try it

Live demo accounts on both products show the new surfaces with realistic seed data. Look for the team roles dropdown in ClientPulse, the GEO tab on the client Improve page in ContentPulse, and the new email-template option on Repurpose.
