We’ve introduced a brand-new Pipelines feature to help you streamline your collaborations and track deals more effectively:

Finished campaign search automations now show 

You can now see exactly what your team has spent their credits on in the Insights tab.

This includes content searches, backlink extractions, email searches, and AI personalization.

We have added new variable types including:

These can be used to in the Relationships, Inbox, and Campaign tabs to mark your opportunities that are assigned to specific members, specific dates, and the stage your collaboration is at. 

Your unified inbox has been completely revamped. It now offers:

You may now move draft campaigns between workspaces.

Note: Only draft campaigns can be moved.

Enterprise customers can now limit email accounts to specific workspaces. 

Once assigned to a workspace, the inbox will only be available to team members within that workspace.

 

We have reduced the credit cost for AI personalizations to:

The campaign overview screen now contains extended analytics, giving you a much deeper look into the campaign progress.

Campaign templates now offer you the option to generate keyword ideas with AI, greatly expanding your pool of opportunities.

You can use one of our pre-selected prompts, or write your own.

Clicking on an opportunity in the campaign editor opens an expanded Inspect view, via which you can:

When unsubscribing emails or domains, you can decide if you’d like to exclude them globally or only in selected workspaces.

We're thrilled to announce the launch of AI Variables in Respona - a dynamic way to personalize your email outreach with ease.

The update includes three default AI Variables: Subject Line, Icebreaker, and P.S.

To create custom AI variables, go to 'Account' > 'Custom Field' > 'Create Custom Fields' > 'AI-Powered Field', fill out the necessary details, and let our AI take care of the rest.

To populate AI Variables, enable AI Personalization in the Pipeline Settings for new searches/imports or start a separate automation for existing opportunities with the "Bulk Email Personalizer" button.

Note: AI variables are only available for Pro and Unlimited plan subscribers.

We've fully revamped the email sequence editor, providing several UI/UX improvements, including an enhanced email analyzer.

The campaign flow has been condensed into 3 steps instead of four.

1. Sequence creation
2. Find opportunities (and run a simultaneous contact search)
3. Review & launch

You can now create recurring searches at Step 2 - Opportunities.

Save tens of hours of time by putting your campaigns on auto-pilot.

Campaign reports have been expanded, including new metrics, such as the best time to send emails, based on your performance.

New team leaderboards in the Insights tab will help you measure your team's successes based on their individual performance metrics.

We've optimized our contact search automation with advanced sourcing and boosted precision.

Now, Respona can locate twice as many personal emails as before, maintaining a sub-3% bounce rate. 

Also, our updated automation achieves an average of 80% match rate, ensuring efficiency and accuracy in your outreach: enhanced performance, same simplicity, better results.

Get in touch with journalists who have recently published news articles on a relevant topic.

Get in touch with bloggers who have recently published a relevant article to spark new collaborations (link building, content collab, etc).

Find unlinked mentions of your business and convert them into valuable backlinks.

You can now find news articles via Google News for your journalist outreach campaigns.

The user interface of the campaign editor has been streamlined, and previous Steps 2 (create a sequence) and 3 (find contacts) have been moved to represent a more natural campaign order.

As a Respona user, you can earn 5000 bonus credits for each referral who signs up for Respona and becomes a paying customer.

A 30-day cookie is placed on your referral's browser when you share your referral link. This means that even if your referral leaves the page and comes back in the future, we'll still track the referral to you.

Once your referral signs up and becomes a paying customer, we'll credit your account with 5000 bonus credits. These credits never expire and will remain in your account as a backup. If you ever run out of monthly plan credits, these bonus credits will be used to cover any additional usage.

To share your referral link, you can add it to your email campaigns by selecting "Include referral link to earn free credits" from the "Create a sequence" tab.

You can track all referrals from the "Earn credits" tab of the Account menu.

In addition to the 5000 bonus credits for each paying customer referral, we're also offering an extra 5k credits for users who leave a review of Respona on G2, or Capterra. 

To claim your review credits, send us a screenshot of your review via support chat.

Now, all users have the option to assign several sender emails to a campaign.

Doing so will spread out the campaign across all involved emails.

To assign several sender emails to a campaign, simply navigate to the "Verify & Launch" menu at step 4 of your campaign, and click on the "Sender emails" drop-down.

The sidebar at the personalization step has been revamped, providing in-depth information about each contact in your campaign.

The speed and performance of the Inbox tab have been greatly improved.

Additionally, a sidebar has been added that depicts information about each contact and their website, such as:

- Conversation history
- Relationship status
- Campaign history of each contact
- Social links
- Website metrics

We've added a new data partner to improve the accuracy of manual contact searches significantly.

Additionally, running a domain-level manual search deducts one credit in addition to credits used for finding individuals' contacts.

Enjoy a more secure and faster experience when you during your login/signup process:

Our new unlimited plan gives you unlimited sender email accounts and bulk credits to take your outreach to new heights.

Respona's email finder has received a major update:

You now have a library of plug-and-play outreach templates in your account.

Answer a few questions about your objectives, and let Respona automatically create a custom campaign for you.

The integrations with Ahrefs and Semrush have been significantly improved, and now they're officially out of beta.

The results using these backlink search sources are now much more accurate, and domain-level metrics have been added for all integrations:

Creating custom fields (variables) has a separate page enabling you to easily manage existing custom fields and create/delete new ones:

The Relationships tab has received a significant improvement. 

You can now click on each contact or website to view/edit information such as email addresses, conversation history, campaigns, and SEO metrics.

No subscription to Ahrefs or Semrush? No problem! You can now use your Respona credits to pull Moz metrics and backlinks data without external integrations.

Campaign filters have been expanded, and users are now able to filter their campaign tab by owner, status, or campaign name, as well as combine multiple filters to find specific campaigns.
 

Previously, after searching for podcasts, users would also need to run a contact search automation to find actual emails.

Now, this process has been integrated into the podcast search automation itself - it pulls podcasts and contact details as a single step, with no need to run an additional automation and spend credits at Step 3 - Confirm Contact.

Previously, Respona would not allow users to run contact automations unless they had enough credits for all opportunities.

Now, you no longer need credits for all opportunities - the automation will run regardless of the number of credits and will stop once they run out.

With the release of our new dashboard, users now have a centralized page where they can:

With this update, we have brought two new email settings.

More specifically, the ability to change the random delay between sent emails (be default set to 60-300 seconds), as well as the addition of a custom tracking domain for each user for improved deliverability.

Both settings are accessible by going to Account > Email Accounts and clicking on your email.
