Discover the latest features, improvements, and updates to DraftSEO.ai
Shopify stores get a big upgrade. Your articles can now feature your real products and show your own product photos, instead of AI images, wherever a product is discussed.
When a product fits the topic, the article names it, links to it and shows its photo right where it is mentioned.
Up to 3 products per article. The main product's photo can become the cover image.
A photo always comes from that product's own gallery, so it never shows the wrong product.
Your photos stay on your Shopify store. Nothing is copied or re-uploaded.
Open your Site Profile and click Manage products & photos.
See every product DraftSEO found in your store and each of its photos.
Untick any product or photo you don't want in your articles.
Sold-out products, gift cards, samples and add-ons are skipped automatically.
Swatches, size charts and drawings are skipped too. Tick one to use it anyway.
It is on by default for Shopify sites. No reconnecting needed.
Generate and Bulk: in "Promote my business", tick Use my store's products and photos.
Product photos: choose "Mix with AI images" or "Only my product photos (no AI images)".
Autopilot: Autopilot settings → Article Preferences → Store Products. It also applies to articles already on your calendar.
Shopify only for now. More store platforms are coming.
"Promote my business" must be on, and the article must be in the same language as your store.
In the editor, hover a photo to see the "From your store" label.
If you later delete a product photo, the article publishes without it instead of showing a broken image.

Nothing to do on your side. Articles already planned in your calendar and your saved presets move to the new models automatically.
Internal linking got a big upgrade. Your articles now link to your products, not just your other posts, on every online store we support.
Articles can now link straight to your products and product categories.
A post about "best vinyl storage" can link to the storage cabinet you sell.
Works on WooCommerce, Shopify, PrestaShop, OpenCart, Magento, Shopware, Odoo, BigCommerce, Cafe24, Wix, Webflow, Duda, CS-Cart, UNAS and Shoper.
Link to product pages: ON by default.
Link to standard pages (service pages, landing pages, homepage): OFF by default.
Find both on the Generate page, in Autopilot settings, and on the Internal links page.
New articles are linked more consistently to your most relevant pages.
Shopify stores on their own domain now show all their products, pages and collections.
Scheduled articles now keep all their settings: internal links, external links and web research.
If your store connection can't see your products yet, the Internal links page tells you exactly what to change.
PrestaShop, OpenCart and Magento users: update the DraftSEO module to the latest version to link your products.
We rebuilt how DraftSEO writes your articles and titles. Everything below is automatic and affects blogs already planned in your calendar.
When a title says "Top 10 Food Blenders", your article now has exactly 10 numbered items, in order, with clean H2/H3 headings.
Works for lists, step-by-step guides ("11 Steps"), day-by-day plans ("7-Day Meal Plan") and comparisons ("Vitamix vs Ninja").
Respects your chosen length: a short article gets shorter items, never fewer.
Works with your chosen article type: a "Top 10" Ultimate Guide gets guide-level depth inside every item.
Works in every language.
Titles now consider what your site sells and who buys from you, and what Google actually shows for the keyword.
No more copied competitor headlines. Every title is written for you.
A year only appears when the topic changes yearly (prices, best-of lists), and it is always the correct year.
Titles follow your site's capitalisation style and keep accents correct in every language.
Articles know today's date... no more calling past events "upcoming".
Stricter accuracy rules: fewer invented facts, no fake "expert quotes".
UK articles use miles and UK spelling.
Reading level options now follow real readability research : "Very easy" really reads easy, "Expert" reads expert.
Your keyword is capitalised naturally... only names and places get capitals.
Your custom instructions now take priority over our default style rules.
French articles use proper French punctuation.
No action needed. Just keep generating! 🚀

Before:
New:
The new dashboard has a tile-based structure which you can edit.
Click the top "Edit Layout" button.
Move things around, remove them, or add new ones from the widget menu that appears on the left.
We've made the article costs way simpler, by reducing them from 2 to 1, 4 to 2, or from 8 to 3.
Autopilot also automatically re-plans your calendar whenever you decide to change the AI model for writing your articles. It will intelligently plan to evenly distribute writing the articles throughout the month so it uses up all your credits right before your plan renews.
No more complicated maths or budgeting more images. Images are now totally free with all articles.
We've optimised our DraftSEO logic for better images that match the SEO context not only of your articles, but for your business. This needed a swithc away from lesser image models.
Now that images are free, we decided to move away from the cheap FLUX image model, as it was way worse than other image models.
We've bumped Claude models from Opus 4.8 and Sonnet 4.6 to the newest most powerful Opus 5 and Sonnet 5 at no extra cost.
Our growing internal logic from DraftSEO has become too complicated for lesser models to handle. Since we strive to only offer the best results for your SEO, we have now deprecated Haiku 4.5, as it offered volume but low quality, as we know can harm SEO.
✅ deepseek-v4-flash
✅ deepseek-v4-pro
If you fancy trying out how other world-leading models think that's different from Claude and GPT, you can now harness the power of DeepSeek Flash and Pro.
Now available in the AI Models menu selections for content writing in your interface.
Today we're retiring:
❌ GPT-4 Mini
❌ GPT-4o
❌ o3 Mini
And replacing them with OpenAI's newest frontier reasoning models:
🌙 GPT-5.6 Luna
🌍 GPT-5.6 Terra
☀️ GPT-5.6 Sol
This isn't just a model swap.
Our internal SEO quality testing on first drafts improved from 66% → 88% median quality.
That means:
✨ Higher-quality SEO articles
✨ Better reasoning and factual consistency
✨ More human-like writing
You can find them in the AI Model dropdown on the Generate, Bulk and Autopilot pages:
