# SaaS Maker changelog > Product-owned history of meaningful changes shipped by SaaS Maker Canonical: https://sassmaker.com/changelog A product-owned history of meaningful changes shipped by SaaS Maker. ## September 26, 2026 — A freshness pipeline for the catalogs catalog-freshness reports expired funding deadlines, stale verifications, and — on request — probes every launch destination for death, redirects, and hijacks. - Added tooling/scripts/catalog-freshness.mjs: offline staleness report plus an opt-in --probe liveness sweep; findings are a report, never a mutation. - First run caught six funding programs still marked "Open now" with passed deadlines — now correctly "Next cohort or waitlist". - Added the catalog-freshness skill so the refresh loop is a documented capability, not institutional memory. ## September 26, 2026 — One search box for the whole site A unified index spanning all 1,250 public entries — products, ideas, funding programs, launch destinations, tools, learnings, and docs. - Added /search: client-side search with per-type filter chips and ?q= / ?type= deep links. - Added /search.json: the same index as a machine endpoint — agents fetch once and filter on title+summary+keywords. - Search joins the primary nav; /search.md, sitemap, llms.txt, and /api/ai register it for crawlers and agents. ## September 26, 2026 — Public domain-rank board and the drank skill The archived drank tracker's DR history became a public board at /ranks, and drank itself joined the capability register as a credential-free skill. - Imported the checked-in fleet DR snapshot — 29 owned domains with weekly Ahrefs DR history — into src/data/domain-ranks.json. - Added /ranks, /ranks.json, and /ranks.md: ranked table with per-domain deltas, provenance, and an explicit not-reported-vs-zero rule. - Added tooling/skills/drank so DR lookup is a cataloged agent skill alongside psi-swarm; the tooling register now lists 100 capabilities. - Linked the board from the footer, sitemap, llms.txt, and /api/ai. ## September 26, 2026 — Every catalog entry became a page Each launch destination, funding program, idea, and tool now has its own indexable URL in the sitemap. - Extended /launchdesk/ from playbooked rows to every active destination — 845 catalog records with verbatim source claims. - Added /ideas/ pages for all 48 public scored ideas with full reasoning. - Added /tools/ pages for all 99 reusable capabilities, linking back to their canonical source. - Registered all entity pages in sitemap.xml and cross-linked every index row to its detail page. ## September 26, 2026 — The funding workspace moved onto the site The Funding & Accelerators workspace became a native public directory — no more living inside Notion. - Imported all 184 programs into a checked-in dataset rendered at /funding, one row per specific program. - Reproduced the workspace’s sixteen decision views as public presets with their original filters and ordering. - Gave every program a full record page and JSON twin at /funding/ and /funding/.json. - Published the strategy, application materials, methodology, and archive documents alongside the directory. - Kept uncertainty visible: evidence quality, website status, and unresolved rows are shown rather than smoothed away. ## September 26, 2026 — The spotlight became a product ledger The homepage hero stopped pretending the workshop wall has four panes. - Replaced the half-empty featured-pane grid with a ruled ledger of full-width product plaques. - Gave each spotlight product a persistent tone marker so the pane-color story works on touch, not only hover. - Kept the steel frame, limestone ground, Schibsted type, and the atelier photograph as a masked edge glimpse. ## September 26, 2026 — LaunchDesk research passed four hundred playbooks The launch catalog gained another hundred researched destinations in descending authority order. - Added over a hundred researched playbooks covering submission routes, requirements, and honest unknowns. - Quarantined dead or gated destinations instead of keeping optimistic claims. - Re-measured 898 active destinations with the live verification sweep. ## September 25, 2026 — Launch playbooks became an executable toolkit LaunchDesk grew into a working kit: a per-product coverage ledger and hundreds of researched destination playbooks. - Published the free agent-executable launch toolkit at /launchkit. - Added a per-project launch coverage ledger so submissions map back to products. - Grew the playbook library past three hundred researched destinations. ## September 23, 2026 — The directory started measuring visits Watchtower browser telemetry now records public page usage so the surface can be evaluated on evidence. - Added Watchtower browser telemetry to the public pages. ## September 20, 2026 — Learnings became an editorial series Eleven first-party articles now document how the launch catalog is researched, verified, and maintained. - Published eleven LaunchDesk articles covering catalog research, data quality, quarantine, and submission practice. - Wired every article into the markdown and agent-readable surfaces automatically. ## September 18, 2026 — LaunchDesk moved onto the workshop The launch-destination catalog left private tooling and became a public page at /launchdesk. - Rendered the thousand-destination catalog natively with authority, link-policy, and pricing columns. - Kept source claims, quarantine state, and unknown-vs-zero semantics visible instead of smoothed over. ## September 10, 2026 — Product profiles became generated The public catalog is now projected from the private source catalog rather than edited by hand. - Exposed the shared public catalog and generated the profile project data from it. - Revalidated the reviewed portfolio categories and directory rows. ## September 6, 2026 — The site hardened its plumbing Every public route now answers HEAD requests correctly, and the display typeface is self-hosted. - Added HEAD parity on every public route. - Self-hosted the Schibsted Grotesk webfont. ## August 26, 2026 — Profiles gained depth and the workshop an identity Project pages expanded into fuller profiles, and the studio identity became its own page. - Published expanded project profiles and a dedicated studio identity page. - Added repository issue readers so product roadmaps live with the code. - Corrected AI provider symbols across the public surface. ## August 23, 2026 — Ideas and tools joined the public workshop The separate ideas surface was absorbed into /ideas, and shared tooling became a public catalog at /tools. - Moved the scored ideas catalog onto /ideas inside the workshop theme. - Published the tools catalog of shared skills, scripts, and workflows. - Unified the interior pages under one steel-and-limestone system. ## August 22, 2026 — The directory opened to every project — and to agents All Fleet projects became browsable at /projects, and the site started answering machine readers in their own formats. - Published the complete Fleet project directory while keeping the homepage curated. - Added markdown content negotiation, an OpenAPI surface, and llms endpoints for agent readers. - Distilled repeated project anatomy and fixed the shared workshop frame. ## August 10, 2026 — Tokens spent for the world became a public ledger SaaS Maker now publishes verified aggregate model usage from its products as a cumulative studio measure. - Seeded the ledger with CodeVetter’s authoritative lifetime and latest-day token records. - Added a procedural Three.js globe, exact UTC recency, and privacy-safe regional pulse support. - Kept the verified metrics readable with reduced motion, no script, or unavailable WebGL. ## July 29, 2026 — Product history moved onto the products SaaS Maker now treats each maintained product website as the owner of its public release history. - Added this product-owned changelog to SaaS Maker. - Changed directory changelog links to open the product website instead of raw commit history. - Changed roadmap links to open GitHub Issues for public repositories. ## July 29, 2026 — The directory became a workshop The public directory and product detail pages moved into one architectural workshop system. - Rebuilt product discovery as a responsive steel-and-glass product wall. - Brought internal product detail pages into the same visual language. - Expanded the maintained public directory while keeping private Fleet controls out. ## July 24, 2026 — SaaS Maker became a focused public directory The separate SaaS Maker runtime was retired in favor of a smaller static public product surface. - Removed the abandoned dashboard, API, authentication, and internal control-panel features. - Kept the public directory on sassmaker.com and the private Fleet console separate. - Removed services and storage SaaS Maker no longer needed without changing product domains. ## July 23, 2026 — Feedback became a backend-free package The maintained feedback capability was narrowed to a small React package that products control. - Removed SaaS Maker-owned submission, inbox, authentication, and storage services. - Let each integrating product decide how feedback is submitted and stored.
