Changelog

Some leads showed No verdict instead of their next step. They now get one.

We've reworked how Signado finds and picks your leads.

• Each keyword, creator and Company page run now picks the best match for your ideal customer from the people it finds.
• Company and country exclusions, and people already in your list, are usually handled before a run picks, so they no longer take the place of new leads.
• Both mode ranks post authors and commenters together and keeps the best of both. It's now the default for new keyword sources.
• Keyword scans find more of the posts published in their window.
• Previews show more of the people a source brings in, from the posts your scans read first, and fewer come back empty.
• Re-adding a post you already track with a different choice of commenters or reactors now updates it instead of showing an error.
• A source you add back keeps its Custom schedule.

If your leads look different this week, this is why.

Every scheduled source now follows one rule. A scheduled scan that brings you nobody costs 1 credit, even when your exclusions removed everyone it found. When it brings you people, you pay only for them: 5 credits per new lead, 1 credit per person already in your leads. Run once and a source's first scan never pay a scan fee. A scan that fails on our side, or that you stop while it is still searching, costs nothing.

Until now only creator, Company page and Hiring sources had a scan fee. Keyword sources now have it too, a creator or Company page scan that found a post but brought you nobody now keeps it, a Hiring Run once no longer pays one, and the first scan of every new source is free.

To keep quiet days from costing anything, switch a source to Custom and pick the days it scans, or pause it in Sources.

When your scoring instructions change a lead's score, the small icon next to the score shows a note. That note now says how your instructions raised or lowered the score, for example "Lowered per your recruiter rule" or "Boosted per your instructions".

It no longer says "excluded" or "skipped" on leads you kept. Those leads stayed in your list with a lower score, and notes written the old way now read "Lowered per your instructions". This applies to Warm Leads and Hiring.

Write message now works on every Hiring lead, even before you find the person: Signado writes to the company's hiring team from the job post, for the usual 3 credits per message, and once you add the person, your next message goes to them.

Since October 11 we've shipped a run of fixes to how sources start and run, how credits come back, how keyword searches choose posts, and how Hiring filters jobs. If something has looked different since then and doesn't seem right, tell us and we'll check it.

Scheduling

• Stopping a first scan stops it. If you stop a source during its 7-day scan, the scan stops. Leads it already found stay in Warm Leads.
• A clear reason when a scan has to wait. When a source can't start its first scan yet, Sources tells you why.
• No surprise scans. Saving a schedule a source already has no longer changes when it runs.
• Back on time the next day. When a source skips a day because its share of the daily budget ran out, it now runs at its usual time the next day.
• Onboarding matches Sources. Creators and competitors added during onboarding start from their latest post, the same as on the Sources page. You can pick as many sources as your plan's active sources allow, and new keyword sources look for both post authors and commenters.

Credits

• Exclusion refunds go back to today's budget. When a lead matches your exclusions and its credits are refunded, those credits now return to that day's budget, so a Daily source can keep finding leads.
• Excluded people are usually skipped before you're charged. Country and company exclusions are now checked before the charge whenever the location or company is already known.
• Country names. Country exclusions understand short names like USA, UK and UAE, and locations written like "Yangon Region, Myanmar".
• Backfill credit limit. The credit limit for a source's first scan now has the same name everywhere.

Keyword searches

• More relevant results. Keyword scans cover exactly the time since the last scan and pick the most relevant posts in that window, not only the newest ones.
• Clearer preview errors. If a preview fails, it tells you what to do next.

Reliability

• When a LinkedIn search comes back with broken data, Signado now treats it as a failed search and tries another way, instead of reporting that nothing was found.

Hiring

• Hiring filter instructions. In Settings, tell Signado which jobs to skip, by company, poster or the job itself, for example "Skip staffing firms" or "Skip internships". Skipped jobs show the rule they matched and cost 0 credits.
• Filter and scoring stay separate. The filter runs as its own check before scoring, so your filter rules and your Hiring scoring instructions no longer affect each other.
• Job title column. See when each job was posted or reposted, and how many people applied. Your CSV export has the same columns.
• Every name of a country. Country exclusions on Hiring jobs match every name of a country, like USA or Hong Kong.

Hiring is a new source. Enter a job title, and Signado finds companies posting LinkedIn jobs for that role, scores each one against your business, and shows who to contact.

A company hiring an SEO Manager needs SEO done. If that's what you sell, you can offer to do the work while they hire, or instead of the hire.

What's new:

• Add a Hiring source. In Sources, choose Hiring and enter a job title, like SEO Manager. Add up to two other names companies use for the same role, then pick a country or Anywhere. Run it once, daily, or on your own schedule.
• Job titles suggested for you. During onboarding, Signado suggests three job titles based on your website.
• A Hiring tab in Warm Leads. Hiring leads get their own tab, next to Conversations (formerly All leads). It works like Warm Leads, with search, filters, CSV export and Find Emails.
• Scored like every lead. Each company gets a score from 0 to 100 and a short reason, based on the role, the company and your business profile. Add Hiring scoring instructions in Settings to move scores up or down.
• The person to contact. Each lead shows who posted the job, and says when that person is a recruiter. When nobody is named, Find the right person searches LinkedIn for the right title at that company, and Add person attaches them for free.
• A message written from the job post. The new Hiring LinkedIn DM template mentions the role and a detail from the job post, and fits who you're writing to. A draft costs 3 credits.
• Same price as any new lead. Each Hiring lead costs 5 credits. Each scan has a 1-credit fee, refunded when the scan finds a lead. When your credits can't cover every match, the best fits are charged first, up to 50 leads per run.
• From your AI tools. Through the Signado MCP, your assistant can add and preview Hiring sources, list your Hiring leads, and attach the right person to a lead.

New Hiring leads appear on the Hiring tab. The daily lead email covers Conversations leads only. No LinkedIn login is required.

When you turn on a source, it now looks for leads right away, then follows its schedule. Daily and Custom sources work the same way.

• Two clear choices. Pick Scan last 7 days now or Scan last 24 hours now. On the Sources page and in MCP, the second choice for a creator or company page is Scan their latest post now. During onboarding, Scan last 24 hours now scans a creator's posts from the last 24 hours, and the screen says so. Either way, the source then follows your schedule.
• Custom schedules start now too. Before, a Custom source waited for its first scheduled day. Now it scans when you start it, and the next scan happens on your next scheduled day.
• Custom scans pick up where the last one began. Each Custom scan covers the time since the scan before it began, so a few minutes may be searched twice. If a scan fails, the next one covers that time again. A Custom keyword source that ran yesterday now searches the last 24 hours instead of the whole week.
• One scan for the last 7 days. With Scan last 7 days now, that scan replaces the first Daily scan, so the same week isn't searched twice. If it can't run, the regular scan starts right away instead.
• Restarting a creator or company page. It scans their latest post from the last 7 days. If you already got that post before you paused, it's skipped and the scan credit comes back.
• Waiting for tomorrow's budget. When a creator or company page's scan is skipped because its share of today's budget is spent, the Sources page now says it is waiting for tomorrow's budget, as it already did for keyword sources. When the budget can't fund every source each day, a Daily source shows how many days out of how many it runs, not which days.

If you add sources from Claude or ChatGPT through the Signado MCP, add_source offers the same two choices.

When your daily budget couldn't cover one new lead for every source, none of your sources found leads. That's fixed.

Your sources now take turns. Each day, as many sources run as your budget covers. The next day, the ones that didn't run go first. For example, with a daily budget of 25 credits and 6 sources, 5 run today and the 6th runs tomorrow.

The budget card on the Sources page shows how many sources your budget covers per day.

When your credits run out, discovery pauses and starts again on its own as soon as you top up or your monthly credits refill.

When a subscription ends, its sources are paused. If you come back, turn on the sources you want again.

Your daily email about new Strong fit leads now tells you who each person is before it tells you what to do.

• Who they are, first. Under each name you'll see the same Why they fit sentence as in Warm Leads, for example "Founder of a one-person consulting practice that fits your small service-provider target."
• Then the next step. The Action and what they posted, commented on, or reacted to follow, as before.

You can turn this email on or off anytime in Settings, under Notifications.

The Why they fit sentence now explains in plain words why a score was held down.

Some rules limit a lead's score: a competitor, a location outside the one you require, a rule in your custom instructions, someone marked open to work, or a job title that doesn't say what they do. The sentence used to show internal rule names and numbers. It now says what happened, for example:

• "Sells the same service to your buyers, so this is a competitor."
• "Based outside your required UK location."
• "Marked open to work."

Scores are unchanged. Existing leads get the new wording the next time they are scored or re-scored.

Your daily email about new Strong fit leads now tells you what to do with each lead, the same way Warm Leads does.

• The same next step as Warm Leads. Each lead shows its Action, like "Contact them" or "Contact them, there's an angle", with a one-line reason to reach out.
• The leads worth contacting first come first. People asking for help right now lead the list, followed by the ones with the clearest reason to reach out.
• You can see where each lead came from. Every lead shows whether they wrote a post, commented on someone's post, or reacted to it, with a short quote when there is one.
• Wording that matches what they did. Leads who wrote or reacted to a post no longer read "Their comment about", in the email and in Warm Leads.

You can turn this email on or off anytime in Settings, under Notifications.

The Competitor column now gives you control over which leads count as competitors. Click a lead's Competitor badge to choose. If you don't see the column, turn it on from Columns.

• AI's choice (default). The AI decides. The badge shows Yes (AI) or No (AI).
• Yes. Applies straight away: the lead drops to a low score and its Action becomes Skip.
• No. The score stays as it is, and you get a prompt to re-score the lead.
• Your choice sticks. Every re-score keeps it, and the badge shows Yes (you) or No (you). Pick AI's choice to undo it.
• New filter options. Filter your leads by Yes (AI), No (AI), Yes (you) or No (you).

Leads outside a location you require now score lower.

• Required locations count more. If your Target audience says "UK only", a lead whose LinkedIn profile is outside the UK now gets a lower score than before.
• Your wording decides what drops. "Only people located in the UK" lowers the person's fit only. "Only businesses in the UK" can lower the company fit too.
• Preferences stay soft. Words like "especially" or "ideally" lower the score without a hard limit.
• Nothing is removed. To skip a country completely, add it on the Exclusions page.

Existing leads update the next time they are scored or re-scored.

Two fixes for how Signado scores your warm leads.

• Re-score uses the full company details. When you re-score a lead, Signado now uses the same company information as the lead's first score.
• Action verdicts match the company score. A lead whose company scores low no longer shows "Right company" in the Action column.

Existing leads update the next time they are scored or re-scored.

Warm Leads is now easier to scan, understand, and act on.

What's improved:

• Clearer next moves. The Action column now leads with a plain-language recommendation and a short explanation of why it makes sense.
• Easier fit checks. The Why they fit column separates Signado's fit reason from the LinkedIn comment or post that surfaced the lead.
• Profile photos. New and refreshed leads show a profile photo beside the contact name when one is available, with initials as a fallback.
• More reliable enrichment. Signado now has a stronger fallback when profile details cannot be collected on the first attempt.

The result is a cleaner page that makes it faster to decide who to contact and why.

You can now add custom instructions for how Signado checks posts found by your keyword sources. Tell the AI which posts to keep or skip, such as skipping hiring posts or posts from people selling services.

Add your instructions in Settings → Business Profile. They apply to new keyword scans and do not change how Signado scores your leads.

Your Business Profile now has a place for custom AI scoring instructions. Add details your website may not explain, such as which companies you see as competitors or partners, which types of leads you prefer, and who Signado should skip.

Add your instructions in Settings → Business Profile. New leads, and leads you choose to rescore, will use them. Existing scores stay the same until the lead is scored again.

The new dashboard shows the leads Signado found, the messages you generated, and the sources that completed a run. Switch between 7 days, 30 days, and 3 months to see progress and find the best leads and sources.

Warm Leads now opens on All leads. The Action guide and hover details make each verdict clearer. Names, companies, sources, and score reasons are also easier to scan.

Each verdict in Warm Leads now answers three simple questions: Is this the right person? Are they at the right company? How strong is your reason to reach out?

Scores are steadier because Signado now judges the person, company, and reason separately before adding them together. When someone is actively asking about a problem you can help solve, you may see the rare Best reason flag.

Existing leads keep their current scores. New leads, and any lead you choose to rescore, get the new read.

At the top of the page, you will also see a simple reminder: A warm lead is the right person at the right company with a reason to reach out.

You can now choose which language Signado accepts when checking posts found by your keyword sources.

Open Settings and choose a language under Workspace. Signado will skip posts clearly written in another language before it analyzes the people who engaged with them. Mixed-language posts still pass when no language clearly dominates.

The filter applies only to keyword sources. It does not cost extra credits, and All languages keeps the current behavior.

Signado now checks the quality of leads from your ongoing sources around day 4, once there are enough leads to judge. If the same pattern continues, it checks again after about 2 to 3 weeks.

For keyword sources, you will see whether the keyword may be finding the wrong crowd and what you can do next: keep watching, rewrite it yourself, or get new AI suggestions. Creator, competitor, and Company Page sources get the same quality check, with a suggestion to review or swap the source.

The feedback appears on the source in Sources. It is advice only. Signado never changes a source for you.

Warm Leads now has an Action column that turns each LinkedIn post or comment into a practical next step.

• Looking to buy: The person made a direct buying request you can answer now.
• Searching for solution: They are actively trying to solve a problem your offer covers.
• Good ICP · cold outreach: They match your target customer but are not actively looking. Start with the post or comment that surfaced them before sending a cold message.
• Comment post · authority: They are not your target customer, but the conversation is worth joining because your audience may be there.
• Skip: Neither the person nor the conversation fits your business.

Each new lead includes a recommendation and a short reason. Older leads found before Action verdicts launched are marked Pre-verdicts.

Open Warm Leads and use the Action column to decide where to reach out, where to join the conversation, and what to leave alone.

You can now generate a short LinkedIn comment from a Warm Lead instead of only writing a private message.

• Comment on the post. Add one useful thought or question to the post itself.
• Reply to their comment. Respond directly to the point the person made.
• Control custom AI variables. Choose whether each variable uses only the post, only their comment, or both.

Open Write message from Warm Leads and choose either Insightful comment (on post) or Insightful comment (on their comment) from the Template Library. You can copy the result and open the LinkedIn post directly. Comments cost the same 3 credits as an AI message.

Creator and competitor suggestions now focus more closely on people whose work and audiences match what your business actually sells.

We reviewed real LinkedIn activity across different types of businesses, then improved how Signado distinguishes direct competitors from merely related companies and finds active creators whose posts attract the buyers you want to reach. Suggestions also consider locations in your Business Profile when they matter.

Open Sources and choose Get AI suggestions to generate a fresh set from your Business Profile.

Keyword suggestions now use clearer, more natural phrases that are easier to search on LinkedIn and more closely connected to the problems your business solves.

We analyzed patterns across more than 500 real LinkedIn posts from founders, operators, and agency owners, then used what we learned to improve the suggestions Signado gives you. The result is less abstract business language and more of the phrases people actually use when they talk about a problem, ask for help, or look for a provider.

Open Sources and choose Get AI suggestions to generate a fresh set from your Business Profile.

You can now add a LinkedIn Company Page as a Discovery source and find people commenting on its posts. Run a one-time scan of recent posts or keep the source on a Daily schedule to catch new conversations.

What's new:

• Add a public Company Page. Paste a linkedin.com/company/... URL and preview its recent posts and commenters before starting a scan.
• Choose Once or Daily. Run a limited scan when you need it, or monitor new Company Page posts every day.
• See the conversation in Warm Leads. Each personal commenter is enriched, scored, and shown with the exact Company Page post and comment that surfaced them. Use the Company Pages filter to find them later.
• Keep the usual Discovery pricing. Previews cost 1 credit, and scans use the same pricing as keyword and creator sources. New leads cost 5 credits. You choose the maximum spend before a one-time scan starts, and unused lead credits come back automatically.
• Focus on people, not brand accounts. Company accounts in the comments are skipped. People commenting from personal profiles, including employees of the Company Page, remain eligible leads.

Company Page monitoring is available in Sources and through the Signado MCP. No LinkedIn login is required.

You can now choose exactly when your recurring Discovery sources run.

What's new:

• Choose your days. Run keyword, creator, competitor, and Company Page sources only on the days you select.
• Set your local time. Choose one run time and a timezone for each source.
• Keep Daily when it fits. Existing Daily sources stay Daily unless you switch them to Custom.

Open Sources and choose Custom to set a schedule.

Signado can now send a webhook automatically when a Once or Daily source scan finishes and every lead has finished processing.

What's new:

• New Warm leads batch ready event. Turn it on for any webhook endpoint in Settings → Integrations.
• One delivery per completed scan. The webhook includes the leads from that scan, along with their scores, contact details, and the activity that surfaced them.
• Choose which leads to include. Send All leads, Worth a look and up, or Strong fit only.
• Use the events you need. Each endpoint can independently receive Campaign generated, automatic Warm leads batch ready deliveries, manual Warm Leads selections, or any combination of the three.
• Send selected Warm Leads on demand. Select leads on the Warm Leads page and send that exact selection to a webhook subscribed to Warm leads sent manually. This is separate from automatic completed-scan batches.

Both Warm Leads events are off until you select them for an endpoint.

AI fit scores now recognize when a company sells to your customers instead of being one. Those companies now score lower unless there is separate evidence that they could buy what you sell.

You can now tell us when Signado gets a lead's AI qualification wrong or misses important context. Open any scored lead in Warm Leads and select Feedback on this score beside the score. The lead and score are included automatically. Add what should be different and send.

Your feedback helps us improve Signado's analysis and make future lead results more useful.

AI fit scores now take into account any country, region, or specific location you include in your Business Profile. If you do not specify a location, it will not affect the score.

AI message drafts now cost 3 credits (was 7). AI got cheaper, so did drafts.

The Source column now shows where each conversation happened, including whose post the lead commented on and the keyword that found them. It is visible by default. To hide it, open Columns and turn off Source.

Every lead on Warm Leads now has a Write message button. It opens the message editor on the same page, where you can choose a template, set the tone, add variables, and generate the message.

When the message is ready, you can copy it, open the lead on LinkedIn, or mark it as sent without leaving Warm Leads.

Based on user feedback, Signado now tells you when today's discovery budget has been fully used. The notice appears on the dashboard and Sources page. The dashboard warning links to Sources, where you can raise the daily budget for future runs.

Sources that reach the limit also show that they are waiting for tomorrow's budget. If you leave the budget unchanged, your Daily sources continue tomorrow.

An upgrade to our authentication system stopped some new MCP connections from completing. We updated the connection flow, and ChatGPT, Claude, Codex, and other supported MCP clients can connect to Signado again.

If a previous connection attempt failed, reconnect using the latest steps in Settings, under Integrations.

Based on user feedback, we made the dashboard more proactive and useful. It now highlights the best leads from your latest scans, shows recent results and source status at a glance, and gives you clear next steps so you can quickly see what to review or act on.

You can now find everything you need to connect Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, or another MCP client inside Settings, under Integrations. Copy the Signado server URL and setup commands, follow the steps for your assistant, or open the full guide for more detail.

We fixed an issue that could prevent a 1-credit creator source check from being returned when a new post moved on to find its commenters and reactors, or when the check failed before completion. Checks that find no new eligible post still cost 1 credit, as before.

All missing credits have been returned to the affected workspaces. No action is needed.

We fixed an issue where messages created from a LinkedIn post could sometimes miss the post author's name. The author's name now appears correctly in new message drafts.

Based on user feedback, lead scores now display as a simple three-flame fit indicator instead of a 0-100 number: Strong fit (70-100), Worth a look (45-69), and Low fit (0-44). The exact score is still available on hover and in the lead detail. The ICP filter uses the same three tiers.

We also improved the Warm Leads table formatting. Long text, including job titles and fit details, is easier to read, with the full content shown on hover.

Each plan now runs a set number of sources daily: 5 on Lite, 12 on Starter, 25 on Growth, 100 on Scale; every active source gets fed every day. The total number of keywords, creators, and competitors you can store stays at 100. Tip: you can deactivate a source and activate another whenever you want to watch something else.

New workspaces now start with a higher daily discovery budget: 30 credits per day on Lite, 80 on Starter, 165 on Growth, 665 on Scale. You can adjust it anytime in Sources.

You can now share your experience with Signado on G2 or Capterra from the app.

Choose either site, publish your review, then send us the link from the same page. Share your genuine opinion about using Signado.

Warm Leads now opens and refreshes faster, including while Signado is processing new leads in the background.

The page now opens with leads active in the last 7 days. You can still choose Today, 2 days, 30 days, or all activity dates from the Active filter.

There is no change to your leads, exclusions, or workflow.

On August 15, 2026, Signado replaced the Free tier for new accounts with a 7-day free trial on every paid plan. Cancel anytime. Existing Free accounts are grandfathered and keep their credits.

At launch, new users chose Starter, Growth, or Scale. Lite was added later as the smaller paid option. During the trial, your workspace receives the chosen plan's full credits, source limits, and features. Unless you cancel, the trial automatically converts to that monthly plan after seven days.

Additional Scale workspaces become available after the Scale trial converts to an active subscription. They are not available during the trial. Each additional workspace purchase is billed immediately with a prorated charge for the current cycle.

Credits granted at trial start carry through conversion. They do not reset when billing begins. The next full allocation arrives on the next regular monthly renewal.

Keyword sources now consider what your business offers and who you want to reach when deciding whether a matching LinkedIn post belongs in Discovery.

What's improved:

• Your business guides the match. Signado considers what you sell and who you sell to, not only the words in the post.
• Fewer obvious mismatches. Posts that mention the right words but have no useful connection to your business are less likely to enter Discovery.
• Broad keywords stay useful. Posts with a reasonable connection to your business can still reach Discovery.

You should see more relevant LinkedIn posts and fewer obviously off-topic matches in Discovery.

The new Source Performance page shows how each keyword, creator, and competitor scores for lead quality. See which sources bring you good-fit leads and which need a rewrite or pause.

What's new:

• Compare lead quality. See Strong-fit and Worth-a-look rates, scored lead counts, and how each source compares with the typical benchmark.
• See credits spent. See the lead credits each source has spent, minus refunds. Previews are not counted.
• Check keyword relevance. See the percentage of reviewed keyword posts that passed the relevance check.
• Open source settings. Use Go to to jump straight to that source on the Sources page.

Open Source Performance from the sidebar to compare your sources.

Due to popular demand, every paid plan can now keep up to 100 active Discovery sources.

What's improved:

• Starter: 100 active sources.
• Growth: 100 active sources.
• Scale: 100 active sources.

You now have more room to test keywords, creators, and competitors while credits remain the meter for Discovery usage.

Keyword sources can now find the people writing matching LinkedIn posts and the people commenting on them in the same run. Choose Both when setting up a keyword to keep both audiences in one source.

What's new:

• One source for both audiences. You no longer need separate keyword sources for post authors and commenters.
• Preview authors and commenters together. The preview shows a sample of both before you start the source.
• Work through each post as a pair. Signado starts with the post author, then moves to that post's commenters before continuing to the next post.
• Share one lead limit. Your chosen limit covers both audiences, so the run stops wherever that limit is reached.
• Keep the focused modes. Post authors only and Post engagers only remain available when you want one audience.

New leads use the normal discovery credits shown before you confirm the run.

This update clears out three points of friction across onboarding, usage figures, and source previews.

What's fixed:

• Returning users stay in the app. A completed business profile is now enough to enter Signado, so older setup steps no longer send returning users back into onboarding.
• Usage figures display correctly. Contact counts now come from the right records across Warm Leads, Lists, and Campaigns.
• Preview progress is easier to follow. Keyword, creator, and post previews now show staged progress while Signado searches, reads the activity, and prepares the result.

The result is a smoother return to Signado and a clearer view of what is happening while you work.

Keyword discovery now starts with the busiest conversations in your selected window. A run reaches the posts with the most commenters first, so it can find more people per credit.

What's new:

• Most commenters first. Signado opens the posts with the most active conversations before moving to quieter ones.
• More people from each run. The available credits go toward the posts most likely to contain a larger audience first.
• Newest first when you want it. Choose "Newest posts first" in Post selection whenever strict recency matters more than conversation size.

Your choice applies to every keyword source in the workspace and can be changed at any time.

Every discovery run now ends with a shorter list of the people most worth contacting. The new Best of run view on Warm Leads gives you a clear place to start.

What's new:

• A focused shortlist. Signado marks the 3 to 5 people most worth contacting after each completed discovery run.
• Why each person stands out. Every pick includes a direct explanation tied to what Signado found.
• A suggested opener. Each pick includes a starting angle for the conversation.

Start with Best of run, then switch to All leads when you want the full result.

Some websites do not expose enough readable content for Signado to draft a useful business profile. Onboarding now gives you a direct way forward instead of leaving the setup unfinished.

What's new:

• A clear fallback. If Signado cannot read enough from your website, it opens the full business profile and shows you what to complete.
• One action to keep moving. Fill in the profile and choose "Find keywords & creators." Signado saves the profile and starts generating suggestions together.
• Ideas ready in Sources. The new keyword and creator suggestions appear in Sources, ready for you to review and add.

A website that is hard to read no longer blocks you from finishing setup and finding useful source ideas.

Campaign messages no longer stop at generation. You can now work through your leads in Signado, then send each message yourself on LinkedIn.

What's new:

• Start with the leads you choose. Select specific campaign leads or leave the selection empty to work through the full campaign.
• Copy the complete message. Copy the subject and body together when a subject exists, or copy only the body for a LinkedIn message.
• Open the right LinkedIn profile. Jump to the lead's profile in a new tab, ready to paste and send the message yourself.
• Move freely between leads. Use the larger previous and next controls to review messages in any order, with a warning before leaving unsaved edits.
• Keep an optional sent record. Mark a lead as sent after you finish. It appears in the Sent tab as a manual send, and you can unmark it if needed.
• Choose every send option from one place. The campaign header now has one Send menu for manual sending and any connected channels, with CSV export alongside them.

Nothing is sent automatically and no LinkedIn login is required. You stay in control of every message.

Add your website and Signado now gives you more useful ideas for where to find the people you want to reach.

What's new:

• Suggested creators. Find people whose LinkedIn audience includes the buyers you want to reach, then use a suggested profile when adding a creator source.
• Suggested competitors. See active founders and public faces behind businesses selling to similar clients, with personal LinkedIn profiles instead of company pages.
• Clearer profile checks. Confirmed LinkedIn links are marked as verified. When a profile URL cannot be confirmed, you can open a LinkedIn people search instead.
• More useful keyword ideas. Suggestions now focus on the pains, complaints, opinions, and changes your buyers actually discuss. They avoid job titles and broad product categories that tend to attract the wrong crowd.
• More variety between keywords. Each suggestion aims at a different conversation instead of giving you several versions of the same phrase.

Tap any suggestion to place it directly into the source form, then review it before adding the source.

Paste a public LinkedIn post and choose who you want to find: the people who commented, the people who reacted, or both. We replaced the older Lists-only tool with a proper Sources workflow, so post discovery now works alongside your keywords and creator or competitor sources.

What's new:

• Find commenters, people who reacted, or both. Choose the exact public activity you care about before starting the scan.
• Keep each post as a source. Paste the URL, optionally preview the audience, set your maximum credits, and run it once. The source stays available if you want to scan the post again later.
• See where every lead came from. Leads found through a post keep that post as their source in Warm Leads, including when the same person commented and reacted.
• Start without adding a website. Onboarding now begins with the source you want to use. Pick a LinkedIn post, keyword topic, or creator or competitor without a website blocking source creation or Preview.
• Use one discovery workflow. Post leads now use the same credit controls, duplicate handling, and Warm Leads experience as the rest of Sources. No LinkedIn login is required.

Post sources run on demand, so they do not use your daily discovery budget. New leads use the normal discovery credits shown before you confirm the scan.

Not every keyword finds the same people. "Cold email is dead" pulls in buyers venting about a problem you solve. "Sales manager" pulls in people looking for work. Until this update, you only found that out after spending the credits. Now the quality of a source is something you can see and steer.

What's new:

• A fit score on every source. Each keyword and creator on your Sources page now shows how many of its leads are a strong or workable fit, once it has enough scored leads to be fair about it. A source sitting at 2% is telling you something a source at 20% is not, so you can drop the weak keywords and lean into the ones that land real clients.
• Warm leads that surface the best first. Strong-fit leads now stand out with a clear marker, your first strong-fit lead gets a moment worth noticing, and the stat cards at the top double as filters, so you can jump straight to the people worth reaching out to today.
• A straight read on the numbers. About 10% of the people who engage on a topic are a strong fit for what you sell. Sharp, specific keywords reach 20% or more. When a source comes back thin, Signado now tells you and points you at what usually fixes it, instead of leaving you to guess.
• Smarter keyword suggestions. Suggested keywords now favor the phrases your buyers actually post, like "cold email is dead" or "reply rates dropped," over job titles that mostly surface people looking for a new role. Better inputs bring better people, for the same credits.
• A read on the crowd before you spend. Preview a keyword or creator and Signado now describes who is actually in that crowd in plain words, like "this looks like job seekers and career coaches, not the buyers you want," so a poor match is clear before you turn it on. About to activate a source you never previewed? Signado offers to preview it first, for the same single credit. And a short hint under the keyword box reminds you to describe what your buyer complains about, not the title on their profile.

None of this changes how discovery or credits work. Same engine, a much clearer view of where your best clients come from.

We rebuilt the parts of Signado you touch most often. The goal was simple: fewer decisions to get from signup to your first warm leads, and pages that feel good to use on any screen.

What's new:

• Faster onboarding. The setup wizard now asks for about a third of what it used to. Paste your website and Signado drafts your profile for you, or fill it in by hand. Adding your first source and setting a daily budget is one clean card each.
• Redesigned warm leads page. Clearer stat cards up top show what you have at a glance, credit costs are written in plain language, and badges make it obvious which leads came from free discovery versus a paid scan.
• Warm leads on mobile. The page now works properly on a phone. No more pinching or scrolling sideways to read a lead.
• A simpler daily budget. We replaced the drag slider with plus and minus steps. Signado shows the estimated leads per day as you adjust, so you can see the trade-off before you save.
• Sources moved to their own page. Discovery sources left the Settings menu and now live on a dedicated Sources page in the sidebar. The page is redesigned so adding keywords and creators is quicker, and suggested keywords stick around instead of vanishing.

None of this changes how discovery or credits work. Same engine, a lot less friction in front of it.

Discovery now supports exclusions, one of the most requested workflows from teams who already have customers, competitors, partners, or known contacts they do not want to spend full discovery credits on.

Add people by LinkedIn profile URL or add companies from Exclusions in the main sidebar. Signado will use that list across your discovery sources before turning candidates into paid warm leads whenever it has enough information to match safely.

What's new:

• Block known people for free. LinkedIn profile URL exclusions are skipped before a lead is created.
• Skip known companies on repeat encounters. Once Signado already knows a contact's company, matching company exclusions are skipped before another discovery charge.
• Reduced cost for first-time blocked-company matches. If Signado has to enrich a new person once to verify the blocked company, the final discovery cost is reduced to 1 credit instead of 3 (since updated: 1 instead of 5).
• Company confirmation cards. Resolve a company, review the LinkedIn match, then confirm it before it becomes active.
• Workspace-wide protection. Exclusions apply across keywords, creators, and competitor sources.

This keeps Discovery focused on people you actually want to sell to, without making you babysit every source.

New discovery sources no longer have to start from an empty day one. When you activate a keyword or creator source, you can now scan the last 7 days once, then keep the normal daily monitor running from today.

This gives teams a day-one backfill of warm leads when onboarding a new client, territory, or source, without waiting a week for daily discovery to build up.

What's new:

• Grab last 7 days + monitor daily. Start with a one-time scan of recent posts, then continue with the normal daily monitor.
• Start daily only when you prefer. Skip the backfill and begin monitoring from today if you want a lighter start.
• Choose max credits for backfill. Set the most you want the one-time scan to spend before it starts.
• Run it later from active sources. Active source cards now include a Scan last 7 days action if you decide to backfill after activation.
• Daily discovery budget stays separate. The catch-up scan uses normal discovery credits per lead found, but it does not consume the daily discovery budget for that source.

Available now for keyword and creator discovery sources.

Warm Leads now has a Qualify action for checking company fit before you send leads to a campaign. Select leads, click Qualify, and Signado enriches each company with a second score based on company context.

What's new:

• Qualified Score. See a company-context score next to the original discovery score.
• Score reason. Understand why a lead was scored that way before you act.
• Company context in the table. Review summary, offer, size, industry, Target ICP, website, and competitor status.
• Editable competitor status. Mark a company as a competitor or not directly from Warm Leads when you know better.
• Live status while it runs. Watch qualification status update as each lead finishes.

Qualify costs 2 credits per lead and is available from the Warm Leads page.

Keyword monitoring can now find the people writing matching LinkedIn posts, not only the people commenting on them. Choose Post authors on a keyword source and Signado will monitor future matching posts for the authors behind them.

What's new:

• Monitor post authors. Select Post authors on a keyword source to find people creating posts that match your keyword.
• Keep commenter discovery when you want it. Post engagers is still available for finding people commenting on matching posts.
• Run both signals side by side. Add the same keyword in each mode if you want authors and commenters as separate lead sources.
• Preview before activating. Check sample matching posts and potential leads before turning a keyword on.
• No surprise backfill. Switching modes affects future posts only, so existing lead history stays intact.

Available now on all plans. New leads use the same discovery credits as the rest of Warm Leads.

Signado's MCP is now live. Connect Claude Code or Codex, then inspect warm leads, manage discovery sources, find emails, export leads, and draft campaign messages without leaving your workflow.

What's new:

• Connect MCP once. Use Signado from Claude Code or Codex through our live MCP server.
• Work your warm leads. List and export warm leads, review the engagement that surfaced each person, and choose who to contact next.
• Manage discovery sources. Preview, add, and remove keyword, creator, or competitor sources, with confirmation before activation.
• Enrich and draft with credits shown. Find emails and generate AI message drafts from the same credit rules as the app, with the charge and remaining balance returned in the response.
• Use your templates. List or save campaign templates so MCP drafts still follow your Signado voice and variables.

Available now on all plans. MCP uses the same Signado credits, safeguards, and approval steps as the app.

We updated Signado's plans based on customer feedback asking for clearer credit pools and simpler pricing.

Current pricing note (2026-08-14): The Free tier described below is no longer available to new accounts. Every paid plan now starts with a 7-day free trial. Cancel anytime. Existing Free accounts are grandfathered and keep their credits.

• At the time of this June update, Free included 200 lifetime credits. The August 14 note above is the current acquisition policy.
• Starter is now $59/month with 2,500 monthly credits.
• Growth is now $99/month with 5,000 monthly credits.
• Scale is now $349/month with 20,000 monthly credits.
• Additional Scale workspaces are now $349/month and include their own 20,000 monthly credits.

We also tightened the billing flow for additional workspaces so workspace setup, usage limits, and monthly credits stay in sync with Stripe billing.

Keywords are no longer the only way to find warm leads. You can now add a LinkedIn creator or competitor as a discovery source, and Signado will scan the people engaging with their posts every day.

Creators already have the audience you want. Competitors are already selling to your ICP. Signado helps you surface those engagers, score them, and decide who is worth contacting.

What's new:

• Add creators as audience sources. Paste a LinkedIn creator URL and Signado scans the people commenting on their posts.
• Add competitors as intent sources. Paste a competitor LinkedIn URL and find people engaging with the category you sell into.
• Runs daily. Creator and competitor sources refresh every day, just like keyword discovery.
• Same warm-lead pipeline. Every new person is enriched, ICP-scored, and added to your feed only when they match.
• Messages use the real signal. AI drafts can reference the post or comment that surfaced the lead, and you approve before anything sends.

Available now on all plans. You only spend credits when Signado finds a unique new lead.

Activating a keyword commits your daily discovery budget to it for the next 24 hours. Now you can see the actual posts a keyword pulls and the actual people commenting on them for 1 credit, before you turn it on.

What's new:

• Preview before you activate. See 5 sample posts the keyword surfaces and up to 3 commenters on each, in about 10 seconds.
• Mirrors what discovery actually does. Only commenters become leads, so posts with no comments are filtered out and never shown in the preview.
• Check vertical fit in seconds. Scan the commenter names and headlines to confirm these are the people you'd sell to. If not, try a different keyword.
• Collapses after you've seen it. Each preview keeps a one-line summary on your keyword card. Re-expand or refresh whenever you want, without taking over the page.
• Available everywhere keywords live. Run it from Settings → Discovery or from the onboarding wizard before your first activation.

Available now on all plans. 1 credit per preview.

We heard you. You didn't want a meter running in the background, watching for maybe-future signals. You wanted to scan the accounts that mattered right now, see every signal that already exists, and decide. Welcome to Deep Dive.

What's new:

• Scan on demand, not on a schedule. Click Deep Dive on any account. We pull the latest 7 company signals once (funding, hiring, leadership changes, news, product launches, partnerships, executive posts) and stop. No recurring spend.
• Pick contacts, not whole lists. From your warm leads or any saved list, tick the contacts you actually care about and Deep Dive just those. We create a focused sub-list and scan it.
• Re-dive when you want fresh signals. No automatic refresh, no surprise charges. You decide when to re-scan an account.
• Past signals stay visible. Every Deep Dive lives in the archive, so the work you paid for never disappears when you move on to a new scan.
• See the cost before you click. A live preview shows exactly how many credits each Deep Dive will cost, with your remaining balance after.

Available now on all plans. The exact credit cost is shown before you confirm.

You no longer need a separate prospecting tool to feed Signado. We now discover warm leads for you, directly inside the app, refreshed every day from LinkedIn engagement.

What's new:

• Discovery from keywords. Tell Signado the topics, competitors, and categories your buyers care about. Every day we surface people publicly engaging with that conversation.
• ICP-scored on arrival. Each lead lands with a score and a short explanation of why it qualified, so you can decide who to message in seconds.
• Find Emails in one click. Pick any subset of warm leads and enrich them with verified work emails.
• Push to campaign. Send warm leads straight into a campaign. The AI writes openers using the engagement that surfaced them, in your tone.
• Set your own budget. Pick a monthly discovery budget and Signado paces lead delivery to stay inside it.

Available now on all plans. 3 credits per unique new lead (price at launch; now 5).

You can now send Signado-generated messages straight from your own inbox. No Instantly, no HeyReach, no third-party tool required — just connect your email account and send.

What's new:

• Settings → SMTP — connect your Gmail, Google Workspace, or any custom SMTP server in two minutes. Guided setup walks you through Gmail App Passwords (2-Step Verification → App Passwords → 16-char paste) for personal Gmail and Workspace accounts
• Test before you save — every connection is verified by a real test email landing in your inbox. The Save button stays disabled until the test succeeds, so you never persist credentials that don't work
• Send via SMTP button — on any campaign results page, push messages straight through your own server. Replies land in your own inbox (we don't intercept)
• Per-lead status & Retry Failed — track each send live as it goes out. If some fail (auth issue, throttle, etc.), one click retries just the failed ones
• Encrypted at rest — your password is encrypted with AES-256-GCM before storage. We never display it back; rotating it requires re-pasting it
• Tier-gated — available on Starter, Growth, and Scale plans

Available now for all paid plans.

Push your campaign data anywhere — Zapier, Make, n8n, your own server. Configure a webhook URL and receive a JSON POST every time a campaign finishes generating.

What's new:

• Settings → Integrations → Webhooks — add up to 10 endpoints per workspace. Each endpoint has its own URL, optional HMAC secret, and auto-send toggle
• Auto-send when campaigns complete — flip the toggle on and every finished campaign fires the endpoint automatically. Off by default so you opt in deliberately
• Send to Webhook button — on any campaign results page, fire a delivery on demand. Optionally select specific leads to send instead of the whole campaign
• Optional HMAC signing — type your own secret in the create dialog and we'll sign every payload with HMAC-SHA256. Leave the field blank if your receiver doesn't verify signatures
• 500 leads per page — large campaigns paginate cleanly. Each page is a separate signed URL (1-hour validity) the receiver can fetch when ready
• Built-in retry — failed deliveries retry on a backoff schedule (1m → 5m → 30m → 2h → 12h → 24h, up to 8 attempts). Endpoints that fail 20 times in a row auto-disable, and we email you so you can investigate

Available on Starter, Growth, and Scale plans.

AI-generated icebreakers now adapt to how old the signal is, so your messages never sound out of touch.

What changed:

• Recent signals — When a signal just fired (new funding round, fresh hire, breaking news), the icebreaker reacts to it naturally. "Saw the Series B, congrats."
• Older signals — When a signal is weeks or months old, the icebreaker references it without treating it like news. No more congratulating a funding round from six months ago
• Time-aware framing — Each signal type has its own timing thresholds. A LinkedIn post ages differently than a funding round. The AI knows the difference and adjusts accordingly
• Better examples — All icebreaker reference examples have been rewritten to teach the AI framing patterns instead of using made-up specifics. Messages sound more natural across every signal type and tone

Your signals still power every message. Now the AI is smarter about how it uses them.

Current pricing note (2026-06-08): Scale now includes 20,000 credits per month at $349/mo.

The Scale plan just got a major boost. You now get 50,000 credits per month — up from 40,000 — giving you 25% more room to scan, monitor, and message at full speed.

What changed:

• 50,000 monthly credits — Monitor more contacts, run larger campaigns, and generate more AI messages without hitting your limit mid-cycle
• Same features — Priority support, 1-on-1 onboarding, additional workspaces, and everything else Scale includes

If you're already on Scale, your next billing cycle will reflect the new credit allowance automatically.

The campaign wizard now loads faster and handles larger campaigns without breaking a sweat.

What changed:

• Instant table rendering — The "Select Context" step now virtualizes the lead table. Whether you have 50 or 500 contacts, only visible rows are rendered. Scrolling is smooth, no more layout lag on large campaigns
• Faster initial load — Signal data is now fetched in a single optimized query instead of multiple sequential requests. The wizard loads in one round-trip, not four
• On-demand signal options — Signal type and specific signal dropdowns now load their options when you open them, instead of pre-loading every signal for every company upfront. Cached per company, so reopening is instant
• Fixed: missing contacts in large campaigns — Campaigns with 1,000+ contacts could silently show fewer leads than expected. This has been fixed — all contacts now load regardless of campaign size
• Faster signal saves — Clicking "Next: Write Template" now saves all signal selections in a single database call instead of one request per lead

Campaign results now show the email validation status for each contact, right next to their email address.

What changed:

• Email Status column — See whether a contact's email is Valid, Invalid, or Risky directly in your campaign view. No need to switch back to your list to check
• Same badges you know — Uses the same color-coded badges as your contacts table: green for Valid, red for Invalid, orange for Risky, and a dash when not yet validated
• Better outreach decisions — Spot invalid emails before exporting. Skip bad addresses and prioritize LinkedIn DMs or other channels for contacts with risky emails

This helps you avoid bounces and choose the right outreach channel for each contact.

Running low on credits mid-cycle? You no longer have to wait for your next billing reset or upgrade your plan. Credit packs let you top up instantly.

What's new:

• Three packs — 10,000 credits ($249), 25,000 credits ($549), or 40,000 credits ($849). One-time purchase, no commitment
• Never expire — Purchased credits stay on your account forever. They're even preserved if you cancel and come back later
• Smart deduction — Monthly credits are always used first. Purchased credits kick in only when your monthly pool runs out
• Buy from billing page — Head to Settings → Billing and scroll to "Need More Credits?" Or click "Buy Credits" in the low-balance banner
• Usage breakdown — Your usage page now shows Monthly and Purchased balances separately so you always know where you stand

Available on all paid plans (Starter, Growth, Scale).

Big quality-of-life pass on the contacts table. Faster page loads, new filtering tools, and a cleaner layout so you can find and act on contacts without the clutter.

What changed:

• Status filters — New "Monitor" and "Email" filter dropdowns let you narrow your list by monitoring status or email validation result. Multi-select supported — combine "Valid" and "Unknown" to see all sendable contacts at once
• "Not verified" filter — Quickly isolate contacts that haven't been email-validated yet, so you know exactly who still needs checking
• Filter counts — Each filter option shows how many contacts match (e.g., "Valid 63"), so you see the distribution before you click
• Select all across pages — New banner lets you select all matching contacts in one click, even across multiple pages. No more switching to "All" and freezing your browser
• Smarter toolbar layout — Search and filters live on their own row. Bulk actions only appear when you've selected contacts. Less visual noise, faster scanning
• Pagination default — Table now defaults to 25 rows per page instead of loading everything at once. Large lists (500+) load instantly
• Email validation badge — "Valid" status badge is now visible in both light and dark mode

Bug fixes:

• Fixed double-charge on email validation — If validation took longer than expected, the dialog could let you click "Validate" again and charge credits twice. Now it shows "Close" after timeout and blocks re-triggers. Server also rejects duplicate validation jobs
• Fixed silent credit failure — If credit deduction failed after moving contacts to monitoring, they stayed moved without being charged. Now contacts are rolled back to the original list and you see an error message

Current pricing note (2026-08-14): The Free tier is no longer available to new accounts. Every paid plan starts with a 7-day free trial. Cancel anytime. Existing Free accounts are grandfathered and keep their credits. Current paid credit pools are Starter 2,500/mo, Growth 5,000/mo, and Scale 20,000/mo.

Fixed per-feature quotas are gone. Every plan now comes with a credit pool you allocate however you want — more monitoring, more AI messages, or keep a buffer for mid-month changes.

What changed:

• Unified credit pool — Starter gets 5,000/mo, Growth 20,000/mo, Scale 40,000/mo. Free plan: 500 lifetime credits
• Three contact states — Daily monitoring, weekly monitoring, or stored (free). You decide who gets checked and how often
• Monitoring wizard — Click "Start Monitoring" on any list. The wizard proposes a split and handles the rest
• Credit calculator — New tool on the pricing page. Adjust sliders to see which plan fits your team
• Sidebar balance — Your credit balance is always visible. Usage page shows full transaction history
• No surprise charges — When credits run out, monitoring pauses automatically. Upgrade or wait for your next billing cycle

Same price, more flexibility. You control where your budget goes.

The Help Center now reflects how Signado actually works — credits, not fixed quotas.

New articles:

• How Credits Work — What costs credits, what's free, and where to check your balance
• Daily, Weekly, and Stored — The three contact states and when to use each
• Smart Split — How the monitoring wizard scores and allocates your contacts
• Running Out of Credits — What happens, how to resume, and how to reduce burn

Rewritten articles:

• Choosing Your Plan — Now shows credit pools per tier instead of fixed limits
• Tracking Your Credit Usage — Balance, burn rate, and transaction history replace old quota meters
• Start Monitoring a List — Wizard flow replaces the old slot-based activation
• Scraping and AI generation guides — Updated with credit costs

15 articles updated in total. Old "Priority/Watchlist" terminology replaced with daily/weekly monitoring across the board.

No more trimming your Apollo export down to 50 contacts. Upload your entire list — 500, 2,000, whatever you have — and click "Start Monitoring."

How it works:

• One-click setup — Signado scores your contacts by job title, LinkedIn presence, and company data, then proposes which ones to check daily, weekly, or keep stored
• Daily monitoring — Your hottest prospects, checked every day for new signals
• Weekly monitoring — Long-term tracking for accounts not yet in cycle
• Stored — The rest of your list, ready to activate anytime at no cost
• Adjust anytime — Move contacts between daily, weekly, and stored as priorities shift

Stop hand-picking which 50 contacts to monitor. Upload the full list and let Smart Split do the math.

We've bumped up the AI message limits across all paid plans following user requests.

New limits:

• Starter: 51 → 153 messages/month (3x)
• Growth: 150 → 450 messages/month (3x)
• Scale: 300 → 900 messages/month (3x)

Generate more personalized outreach without worrying about hitting your quota.

Fixed an issue where "Draft Campaign" could fail with "No contacts found" for companies with name variations in their signals.

What changed:

• Campaign creation now correctly matches contacts when a signal uses a different company name (e.g., a news article mentioning the full legal name instead of the brand name)
• Domain-based matching is now prioritized — if the website domain matches, the contact is found regardless of name differences

Selecting signals for your campaigns just got faster. You can now select all filtered signals with a single click.

What's new:

• Select all checkbox — A new "Select all" option in the signal feed filter bar lets you select every signal matching your current filters in one click
• Works with any filter — Filter by signal type, date range, or score first, then select all matching results
• One-click deselect — Click again to deselect all, or use the Clear button as before

No more clicking signals one by one. Filter down to what matters, select all, and draft your campaign.

Campaign results now show the original signal source right in the table. No more switching between pages to check what triggered the outreach.

What's new:

• Source column — A clickable link next to each signal takes you straight to the original LinkedIn post, news article, or job listing that was used to generate the message
• CSV export — The signal URL is now included when you export your campaign results
• Works everywhere — Applies to all your existing campaigns, not just new ones

Verify context at a glance before you hit send.

Your AI-generated outreach messages just got a major upgrade. We rebuilt the prompt engine and refreshed the template editor so your emails sound like they were written by a human, not a robot.

Better messages out of the box:

• Icebreakers that observe, not assume — The AI now references signals casually without making assumptions about your prospect's problems
• Specific over generic — Messages include real numbers and metrics instead of vague claims
• No more AI-sounding language — We added 50+ banned phrases and patterns that make emails sound robotic (words like "leverage", "synergy", "delve", phrases like "it's not just X, it's Y")
• Signal-aware context — The AI now uses richer signal data (funding amounts, hiring departments, partnership details) to write more relevant copy

New template editor features:

• 3 AI variables by default — Starter plans and above now start with Icebreaker, Value Prop, and CTA pre-configured
• Quick-add preset variables — One-click to add common variables (Icebreaker, Value Prop, CTA, P.S. Line) with smart defaults
• Variable-specific word limits — Each variable type now has its own default length (icebreakers stay short, value props get more room)

Every new campaign you create will use the upgraded defaults. Your existing campaigns are unaffected.

Selecting signals for your campaign leads is now more reliable, regardless of how your company data was imported or edited.

What's improved:

• Smarter company matching — Signals now match your contacts even when company names differ between your list and scraped data, or when website URLs are stored in different formats
• Case-insensitive matching — "Acme Corp" and "ACME CORP" are now treated as the same company when loading signals
• All signal types visible — When drafting outreach from a company, you'll see every signal type (funding, hiring, news, executive activity, etc.) sorted by strongest — not just the one you clicked on

Your signal selection in Step 1 now works consistently whether you start from a company view or from All Activity.

We've expanded the Help Center with new guides covering the latest features.

New articles:

• Send via Instantly — Step-by-step guide to connecting your API key, mapping variables, and pushing leads directly to Instantly campaigns
• Outreach Analytics — How to read your campaign performance metrics, what data gets tracked, and troubleshooting empty dashboards
• Review & Export updated with inline editing documentation and the Send via Instantly option

All guides follow the same concise format — get in, find your answer, get out.

Your AI-generated campaigns are now fully editable. Click any field in the results table to tweak it on the spot — no more exporting, editing in a spreadsheet, and re-importing.

What you can edit:

• Contact details — Fix a name, update an email, or correct a company directly in the blue-highlighted cells. Changes sync back to your contact list automatically
• AI variables — Refine any AI-generated text like icebreakers or value propositions in the purple cells
• Subject line & body — Click the expand button on any lead to edit the full email message before exporting or sending

Every edit saves instantly to the database. Your lists stay in sync, your exports reflect the latest version, and nothing gets lost.

Campaign generation, Google Maps scraping, and preview generation now update instantly in your browser — no more waiting or refreshing.

What's improved:

• Campaign progress — Watch your message generation progress in real time as each lead completes, with a smooth progress bar and live counter
• Google Maps scrape — New contacts appear immediately when a scrape finishes, no page refresh needed
• Preview generation — See your AI-generated preview the moment it's ready

We resolved an issue where live updates weren't being delivered reliably, and removed workarounds that added unnecessary delays. Everything is now powered by true real-time database subscriptions for the fastest possible experience.

Track how your outreach campaigns are performing — right from Signado. The new Analytics page shows real-time metrics for every campaign where you've pushed leads via Signado.

Connect your Instantly API key in Settings > Integrations, then use the "Send via Instantly" button on any campaign results page.

We've strengthened the security layer between your browser and our database with tighter access controls.

What we did:

• Stricter read/write permissions — Your workspace data is now locked down to read-only at the database level, with writes going through dedicated secure functions that validate every request
• Column-level protection — Sensitive fields like billing status and usage counters are no longer directly accessible from client requests
• Standardized authorization checks — All database access policies now use a single, consistent method to verify workspace ownership

These changes follow industry best practices for database access control. No changes to how any feature works — just a stronger security foundation under the hood.

New users now get a step-by-step setup guide right on the dashboard that walks them from sign-up to their first buying signal.

4 steps to value:

• Complete your business profile — Tell Signado what you sell and who you sell to so signal scoring is calibrated to your business
• Upload your contacts — Import a CSV of target companies and contacts (sample template included)
• Set a Priority list — Priority lists are scanned daily for buying signals like job postings, funding rounds, and tech changes
• See your first signals — Signals start appearing within 24 hours of activating Priority monitoring

Also new:

• Better empty states on the Dashboard, Signals, and Lists pages with clear next-step guidance and help links
• Sample CSV template — download a ready-to-fill template with the right columns so your first upload goes smoothly
• The guide is dismissible anytime and can be resumed from a link on the dashboard

No more guessing what to do next after signing up.

Fixed an issue where hiring signal detection could fail for companies with limited careers page data.

What was fixed:

• Hiring signals no longer fail when a company's careers page returns incomplete data
• Companies with minimal job listing pages are now handled gracefully
• Signal processing continues for all remaining companies in your list

Your hiring signals will now run smoothly across your entire monitored list, even for companies with sparse online job data.

We've shipped a round of under-the-hood performance improvements that make Signado noticeably faster.

Faster page loads:

• Dashboard loads faster — data queries now run fully in parallel instead of waiting on each other
• Campaign Wizard starts up quicker with parallel data fetching
• Campaign Stats and AI Generation also benefit from the same optimizations

Smaller, leaner app:

• Reduced initial page weight — third-party scripts now load after the page is ready, so you see content sooner
• Optimized icon loading — icons are now loaded individually instead of as one large bundle, cutting page load times

Everything you see and interact with should feel snappier. No changes to how any feature works — just faster.

We've updated our Privacy Policy to be more transparent about how we communicate with you.

What changed:

• Added a dedicated Communications section clarifying what emails we send (product updates, feature announcements, tips)
• Clear opt-out instructions in every email via unsubscribe link

Your privacy matters to us. Read the full Privacy Policy.

Need help? We're now just a click away.

What's new:

• Live chat widget available throughout the app
• Get real-time assistance during business hours
• Quick answers to your questions without leaving your workflow
