A centralized dashboard displays detailed change summaries, affected contacts, and impacted lists, with tools to search, filter, and take bulk actions.

The Mentions Trend widget in Explore now includes forecasting, showing predicted mention volumes for the next two days based on historical data patterns. This enhancement helps users move from reacting to anticipating, making it easier to spot early signals and plan proactive responses.

You can now generate an Impact Report in Mira Studio using any article, whether or not it’s already tracked in Meltwater. The new workflow automatically detects untracked content, prompts you to add it, and guides you through each step before generating the report.

This update removes the need to prepare content in advance, making it faster and easier to analyze earned media impact from any source, all within Mira Studio.

The new Klear Chrome Extension lets users access influencer data directly while browsing Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, or X—without leaving the page. It integrates seamlessly into existing workflows, allowing you to discover, vet, and engage with creators in real time.

With key metrics visible in your browser, AI-powered summaries for quick fit assessments, and one-click actions to tag, add to campaigns, or contact creators, the extension removes workflow interruptions and makes influencer discovery faster, smarter, and easier to act on.

Meltwater journalist profiles now include concise AI-generated bios that summarize who a journalist is, what they cover, and how they approach their reporting. Each bio highlights their role and outlet, recent topics and industries they write about, and the typical angles or perspectives in their coverage—drawn directly from their latest work for greater accuracy.

This update saves time by surfacing key details in one place, improves targeting by helping identify the right journalists for each pitch, and strengthens outreach with more personalized, relevant engagement.

When reviewing U.S.-based Radio Broadcast content in Explore, users now see weekly cumulative Reach values—where available—sourced directly from Nielsen. Reach reflects the number of unique listeners who tuned in to a specific station or program for at least five minutes during a given period.

This enhancement helps teams better understand audience impact, prioritize clips by Reach to focus on high-exposure mentions, and close reporting gaps by extending audience metrics beyond TV to include radio coverage. 

A new trend chart in the Top Tracks tab reveals how each audio track is performing, showing whether it’s rising, peaking, or fading based on usage and engagement data. Instead of only viewing the most popular sounds at a given moment, users can now track how trends evolve to inform creative and campaign decisions.

For marketing and communications teams, this update helps brands stay current in fast-moving TikTok conversations, create smarter content with trending audio that drives visibility, and strengthen brand personality through culturally relevant sound choices.
