What's new

Ripe Planner is in beta and ships in small pieces as issues come up, not on a version schedule. This page tracks what changed, newest first.

Something look off, or missing something you asked about? Let us know.
August 27, 2026
  • NewRemix now invents flavor variations too, not just style and format, so a seed like "crepes" can turn into "banana crepes" or "savory crepes"
  • NewAdded a Cherry-pick mode to Remix. It shows every invented variation up front, organized by type, and lets you choose exactly which ones to check before anything is spent
August 26, 2026
  • NewAdjusted UI of Reference Point settings
August 24, 2026
  • NewBlog added — recipe SEO, content planning, and what we're learning building Ripe, at ripeplanner.com/blog
  • NewUpdated date field added next to Published date on recipe records — tracks when a live post was last refreshed (manual, not automatic)
August 16, 2026
  • NewDifficulty score now shows on mobile for Discover and Remix results (previously desktop-only)
  • NewGetting-started video linked near the top of the quickstart guide and docs
  • Fix"Weeknight meals" auto-tag was firing on desserts and cookies — a few of its trigger words ("3 ingredient", "dump", etc.) were format-agnostic, not actually dinner-specific
  • FixSERP verdict could show a different result on the button than in the results banner, for one reference-point type
  • FixPro-tier users had lost the cheaper "View top 10" SERP option, only saw Auto-check
  • NewSERP check buttons reordered — View top 10 (cheaper) now shows first, Auto-check second
  • Fix"Credits left" badge could show a negative number after a tier downgrade
August 12, 2026
  • Fix"View top 10" button was missing from SERP check
  • FixNovice-tier record fields bug
August 11, 2026
  • NewKeywords added from a trend batch now get auto-tagged with their batch month (e.g. "Aug 2026 Trend"), so you can filter or search My Keywords for anything that was trending when you added it
August 10, 2026
  • NewPrev, Next, and Today buttons on every Recipe Planner view (Month, Week, Day)
  • NewCollapse the Recipe Planner's left sidebar to give the calendar full width
  • NewMobile: Week view becomes a 3-day view, wide enough to actually read, scroll left or right between days
  • FixUpdated Recipe Planner colors for clarity, easier to tell today, the 1st of the month, and regular days apart at a glance
  • FixAuto-filled SERP check results now show with a dashed border so it's clear it's an estimate, not a real check. Existing keywords with a solid (already-checked) SERP choice keep showing solid until auto-fill is run again on them
  • NewDashboard cards show your custom status name as a subtitle when Live or To Schedule is mapped to something other than the default
  • NewAdded the My Keywords tab to the onboarding tour
  • NewThe keyword flyout's Auto-fill button now guesses category and tags too, not just when adding from Discover
  • NewAdded a note on how Ripe's guesses work to the docs
  • FixSERP verdict bug
August 9, 2026
  • NewExpanded and reorganized the Discover tab's trending-keyword feed into a single monthly batch with real search data, and removed the old "Need some ideas?" starter box, which surfaced generic ideas rather than genuinely trending ones
  • New"🔍 Related" button on trend keywords runs a real Discover search around that keyword
  • FixSimilar-keyword suggestions in the flyout weren't showing for short keywords whose only real word overlapped a category name (e.g. "chili recipe" vs "Soups & Chilis")
  • NewRight-click a keyword in My Keywords to open it in Discover
  • NewSchedule button on an Intent bundle now opens the date picker on just the best-scoring keyword, instead of marking every keyword in the bundle at once
  • FixReworked the Authority Planner's flavor-pairing logic so shared ingredient/format tags (cheese, dip, brie) no longer outweigh genuine complementary flavor matches when suggesting menu items
  • FixMobile: Go Live Soon dashboard table showed heavily truncated keywords, now drops the Category column and shrinks Score/Due to give the keyword more room
  • FixMobile: My Keywords toolbar could overflow the screen, forcing a sideways scroll just to reach the Filters button
  • FixMobile: long keywords in My Keywords now wrap to a second line instead of shrinking the font
  • FixMobile: Recipe Planner's Week view could get stuck in a loop and snap back over Day/Month view after switching away from it
August 8, 2026
  • FixRenamed "All keywords" to "My keywords" for clarity
  • FixFixed search field results
  • FixFixed a bug with the login timer/timeout
  • FixFixed status customization bugs, added a "restore all defaults" option
  • FixImproved import choices and fixed bugs
  • NewAdded "Pasta" as a default category. This only shows up in new accounts. Add it to your own account and map it to the new "Pasta" category so Ripe knows how to auto-categorize
  • NewImproved time settings when scheduling keywords, type something like "7am" or "2:30pm" instead of using a picker
  • NewQuick-add a new category right from the keyword flyout
  • FixRecipe Planner bug fixes
  • NewKeywords added from Discover now get an estimated SERP difficulty verdict automatically, the same guess auto-fill already uses, no need to auto-fill separately just for that
August 7, 2026
  • NewCategories IS NOT filter
  • NewDashboard & Planner status mapping
  • NewSettings → Data & backup: one click to remove the 10 default sample keywords without touching your own
  • NewAdded "Tested" as a default status, right after "Written," for the recipe-testing step
  • NewCategory mapping: link a custom category to Ripe's default categories so auto-categorize keeps working after renaming or restructuring
  • FixClearer Linked keywords box, separating what's actually linked from what's just similar
  • NewKeyword flyout: a monthly search volume chart showing peak months and seasonality
  • FixRemoved Google rank/traffic fields from records, added a Client field for tracking exclusive sales
  • FixFixed UI issues
August 6, 2026
  • Recipe Planner day view: drag to reorder your shoot day, and set a time per item to schedule around calendar appointments
  • Discover: a "Need some ideas?" starter list for when you don't have a seed keyword yet
  • Discover: revisit your last 10 searches without spending credits again
  • The browser Back button no longer kicks you out of the app
  • CSV import: clearer column mapping, and real choices (upgrade, trim, or take the first batch) when a file's too big for your plan
  • Bulk auto-categorize for keywords imported without a category column
Earlier
  • Reference Points for SERP Auto-check: benchmark your DA, or up to 3 real sites (Pro), and compare any already-checked keyword against them instantly
  • Onboarding tour, self-service password/email changes, and a full documentation site
  • Smoother scrolling in Recipe Planner's week view
