A plan for each team
A team you own now buys its own plan instead of using yours. As the owner of a team, choose Upgrade team plan to open pricing for that team; members don’t see upgrade prompts, because the owner handles billing. Your personal team keeps using your own plan. Upgrades apply immediately, and the confirmation shows the exact amount due today. Downgrades take effect at the end of the billing period.Secrets belong to a team
Secrets are now kept per team. Your private secrets in a team are available only to your own agent runs in that team, and nobody else in the team can see them. Team-shared secrets, managed from the team’s Secrets page by their creator and by team owners and admins, are available to every member’s agent runs in that team. Nothing crosses teams, and your existing secrets stay in your personal team. To reuse a private secret in another team, choose Copy from another team; the value is copied securely and never shown.New app connections belong to a team
When you connect an app such as Gmail, Slack, or Notion while working in a team, the connection now belongs to that team: it appears in that team’s connections and is used only by runs in that team. A connection shared with a team is likewise used only in that team’s runs, not in your personal ones. Connections you made before keep working as they do today.Custom skills need a paid plan
Installing a custom skill, whether from GitHub, a ZIP upload, or by asking the agent in chat, and turning on an installed custom or team skill now require a paid plan, your own or your team’s. Built-in skills still work on every plan. On the Free plan, runs don’t use custom skills until you upgrade, and CREAO CLI requests that install or enable them answer402 CUSTOM_SKILLS_PLAN_REQUIRED.
Scheduled runs need a paid plan
Scheduling an agent to run on a recurring basis now requires a paid plan, Pro or higher, with each plan’s own limit on how many scheduled runs go at once. On Free, existing schedules stay saved but don’t run until you upgrade.Kimi K3.1 Pro
Kimi K3.1 Pro from Moonshot AI is now in the model picker on every plan. It is built for long-horizon coding and agentic work, understands images, and has a 1M-token context window. It uses the Standard credit tier.MiniMax M3.1 Flash
MiniMax M3.1 Flash, MiniMax’s fast reasoning model, is now in the model picker on every plan. It reasons on every message with five effort levels, understands images, uses tools, and has a 1M-token context window. It uses the Economy credit tier.Choose your transcription model
Settings → Voice now has a Transcription section where you pick Automatic or a specific model: GPT-4o mini Transcribe, GPT-4o Transcribe, Gemini 3.5 Transcribe, Scribe v2, or Seed ASR 2.0 Flash. Each shows its provider, a cost signal, and a Timestamps & speakers label where the model supports it. Dictation in the web app and your agent’s speech-to-text both use your choice, and web dictation now uses credits like other voice features.Read full Gmail messages
Agents can now download a whole Gmail message, so a very long email is read to the end and an HTML email can be forwarded with its formatting.Upload agent files through CREAO CLI
POST /v1/agents/{agent_id}/files takes a file and a relative path and saves the file exactly there, so scripts, references, and templates you write locally reach the agent as written. Uploading to an existing path replaces the file. Each file can be up to 20 MB, and an agent holds up to 50 files.
UI changes
- Connector approval cards now say why an action needs your approval, such as it is visible to others, involves money, or can delete content, and which connected account it runs as. The same line appears in the chat approval tray, the agent’s pending approvals, and the room overview
- Each file in a room now has a single ⋯ menu with Edit, Upload new version, and Download. You can edit code, Markdown, CSV, and HTML files up to 1 MiB in the browser, with a split preview for Markdown and HTML, and save the result as a new version with an optional note
- Reading a room is easier: a scroll-to-bottom button counts new messages and replies, replies open at their start, day dividers separate each day, and clicking any time switches every time in the room between clock and relative
Bug fixes
- Teammates can open the files of a published team agent again, instead of seeing “Failed to open file”
- A chat tab left open on a personal chat no longer fails with an authorization error after you switch teams in another tab. Each browser tab now keeps its own active team, and a chat from another team says so
- Video Studio and the agent no longer say an input was flagged when the generated soundtrack was refused. The card now says the soundtrack was refused and offers Edit prompt
- LinkedIn image posts work again, and connector failures now come back as readable errors, so the agent can retry or ask you to reconnect
- After a long conversation is compacted because it outgrew the model’s context window, the agent keeps its thread notes and memory context
- Replies no longer occasionally switch to a different language than yours partway through a conversation
October 22, 2026
Set an agent’s default model through CREAO CLI
You can now set the model and thinking level an agent runs with through CREAO CLI, the same setting as the agent’s default model in the app. Senddefault_model_id and default_thinking_level to PATCH /v1/agents/{agent_id}; GET /v1/agents and GET /v1/agents/{agent_id} return them, and runs that don’t name a model use the agent’s saved model and thinking level.
October 20, 2026
Get an agent with its files
Getting an agent through CREAO CLI now also returns its files, such as scripts and templates, each with a download link, so one request covers the whole agent. Addinclude=file_content to GET /v1/agents/{agent_id} to get the text of small text files, such as a Python script or a Markdown template, in the same response.
Rooms for every team
Rooms are now available to every team, on every plan and at every team size, including a team of one. They no longer need a Pro plan or a second member. For the Developer API,GET /v1/rooms?organization_id= no longer answers 403 ROOMS_REQUIRE_PAID_TEAM; a team you can’t use rooms in answers 403 ROOMS_NOT_ENABLED.
Agents work as a team in rooms
Agents in a room can now follow the room’s playbooks: Markdown guides for one kind of work, covering who does what, when to ask for sign-off, and the steps of a process. Members create, edit, and delete playbooks in the new Playbooks panel, and the room assistant offers to save or update one after a multi-step request. When it changes a playbook, you approve or reject the change in the thread unless you asked it directly. Agents hand work to each other by mentioning the next agent, and can ask people to decide with answer buttons in the thread. Only the people asked can pick, and the buttons close for everyone once someone does. When work needs an agent the room doesn’t have, the room assistant recommends one of your agents, or one from Discover, with a suggested setup. Choose Add to room, or Edit setup to change it first. Posts that mention no agent now go to the agent that fits the request, and a follow-up in an agent’s thread wakes that agent without a new mention. Connector actions waiting for approval from agents you invited now appear in a tray above the room and thread composers, where you can approve, apply, or reject them. If an action fails because the connector needs reauthorizing, the message includes a Reconnect button.Instagram Trial Reels
When your agent publishes a Reel, it can now post it as a Trial Reel, which Instagram first shows only to people who don’t follow you. Choose whether you graduate it to your followers yourself in the Instagram app, or let Instagram graduate it automatically when it performs well.UI changes
- Drag the right edge of the desktop sidebar to make it wider or narrower. Arrow keys nudge it, double-click restores the default width, and CREAO remembers your choice. Hovering a room, agent, or conversation in the sidebar shows its full name
- The team name and logo on the chat home screen now open the team menu, where you can switch teams, create a team, buy credits or upgrade the team plan if you own it, and open team settings
- Publish to team on the Skills page now lets you tick several skills and publish them in one step, with Select all. If some fail, the rest still publish and the failed ones stay selected so you can retry
- The custom credit amount field on the pricing and billing pages grows as you type, shows thousands separators for your language, and tells you when an amount is over the maximum purchase instead of showing the minimum-purchase message
- Pricing plan cards list the team size as the first feature, so it no longer reads as a per-seat price, and the Ultra card now uses the same style as the other plans
- Dropdown menus in the iOS app stay inside the screen’s safe area
Bug fixes
- Fixed very long conversations that outgrew the model’s context window failing on every new message; they now compact the history and keep going
October 16, 2026
Stronger passwords
New passwords now need at least one letter and one number, in addition to the 8-character minimum. The rule shows under the password field when you sign up or reset your password. Your current password keeps working; the rule applies the next time you set one.October 12, 2026
Seedance 2.0 Mini and Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash move to paid plans
Seedance 2.0 Mini and Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash now require a paid plan, joining Veo 3.1, Seedance 2.0, Seedance 2.0 Fast, and Seedance 2.5. The Free plan’s video generation uses Seedance 1.5 Pro, Seedance 1.0 Pro, or Veo 3.1 Fast. If one of these models was your saved default on the Free plan, your videos use Automatic instead, and your choice comes back when you upgrade. Every model that can change what happens in an existing video is now on paid plans, so Video Studio’s edit mode asks for an upgrade on the Free plan; trims, cuts, and other mechanical edits in chat still work on every plan.October 11, 2026
UI changes
- Clearer sidebar icons: Agents now uses a robot icon, matching how agents appear elsewhere in CREAO, and Team Pulse uses a broadcast icon. The Team Pulse page title and the chat promo card use the same icon, and the shared drive tile now uses the same icon as the Files page it opens
October 10, 2026
UI changes
- Widgets no longer appears in the sidebar More menu, which now lists Feed, Workspaces, and Skills. The Widgets page is still available at agent.creao.ai/widgets
- When your team is full, the members banner now explains that your plan covers the teams you own, and upgrading it adds more room. Upgrade from the banner or the invite message opens the pricing page with a note that upgrading your plan raises your teams’ member limit
Bug fixes
- Fixed connecting an app for yourself removing that same app’s connection in a team you belong to, and the other way around
- Fixed the team Agents page saying “No agents in this team yet” for owners whose account was converted to a personal team, even though their agents were still there
- Fixed agent runs ending in an error when the model provider cut a response off mid-run. The agent now retries once automatically
October 9, 2026
Explore workflow graphs full screen
The workflow graph in chat now fits inside its card, so you no longer scroll sideways to see the whole plan. Expand it to a full screen view where you can drag to pan, zoom in and out, and use Fit overview to see everything at once.A clearer Workflow tab on workflow agents
A workflow agent’s Workflow tab now opens on a visual map of the work from start to finish, with a short summary of its phases, tasks, inputs, and connections. The technical configuration moves into a collapsed Advanced section for precise edits, and Run stays easy to reach.Bug fixes
- Fixed an old “You’ve used all your credits” message staying in a conversation after you add credits. It now notes that credits have since been added and no longer shows an upgrade button
- Fixed the Plan Credits card on the billing page leaving purchased credits out of its breakdown, so the rows now add up to the total
- Fixed the Plan Credits card showing a reset date that had already passed on Free accounts
- Fixed helper files the agent writes along the way showing up in a chat’s Files view, the artifact space, and the Files page. Steps that wrote them still open as before
- Fixed the chat input cutting off its placeholder text when the composer is narrow, such as with the file pane open
October 8, 2026
Choose slide deck options before you send
When you type/slide, a Slide settings chip appears next to the composer tools. Open it to pick a theme, the number of slides (Auto, 5, 10, 15, or 20), whether the agent does in-depth research, and whether it confirms the outline with you before building. Your picks show as small pills on your message so you can see what the agent will do, and they apply to that deck only, so a past choice never carries over to the next one. The empty chat page also has a new What CREAO can do card that shows how decks are built and edited, with a Try /slide button that fills in an example for you.
UI changes
- Settings is now organized into Account, Preferences, Media, and Developers groups. Memory moves to a Personalization tab, and Image and Voice settings get their own tabs there instead of the sidebar More menu
- Settings opens on Profile, and the old language and theme tab is now General
- The account menu now says Settings and has a gear beside your account at the bottom of the sidebar. Language is changed in Settings under General
- Workspaces moves into the sidebar More menu
- The team Credits page now shows the team pool balance and Your usage against any cap set for you, instead of per-seat panels, and each member row shows their usage and cap
- Only team owners and admins see the team pool balance; other members see their own usage and cap
- The Seats tab is removed from team settings
Bug fixes
- Fixed web search pictures appearing more than once in a single answer, and replaced placeholder captions on search pictures with the picture’s own title
- Fixed the team Credits page showing outdated seat messages such as “You don’t have a seat in this team yet”
October 7, 2026
Ask for a slide deck without typing /slide
Just ask for a deck, slides, or a presentation in a normal chat and the agent builds it with the full slide deck experience, including the theme picker, instead of falling back to a plain PowerPoint file.Set a thinking effort for each agent
On an agent’s settings page, a new Thinking effort control sits under its default model. The level you pick is used whenever the agent runs on that model: in chat, on a schedule, through the API, and when someone tries it from Discover, rather than depending on the last effort each person chose in their own browser. Agents that use an Auto-select tier manage their own thinking, so the control doesn’t appear for them. Changing the agent’s model clears the saved level, since another model may not offer it.Agents can read email attachments from Gmail and Outlook
Ask the agent to open an attachment from an email, such as a receipt PDF, and it now saves the file to your conversation’s files and reads it. Attachments up to 50 MB work, and the agent finds the right attachment by name when an email has more than one.Video Studio explains credit and plan limits right where you press Generate
When a video would cost more credits than you have, or needs a paid plan, Video Studio now says so before you generate, and the Generate button becomes Upgrade plan or Add credits. Your prompt and settings stay in place, and after you upgrade or add credits you return to the Studio with your take as you left it. Failed takes that ran out of credits offer Add credits or Upgrade plan instead of a Retry that would fail again. Team members who hit a team limit are pointed to their team owner or admin.UI changes
- Discover, Feed, and the recommendation strips on the empty chat page now show up while you’re working inside a team, and trying an agent from Discover inside a team adds it to that team’s Agents list
- Upgrade buttons in chat, the tier picker, and the schedule paywall now take team owners to the pricing page, and team members see a note to ask their team owner to upgrade
- The Free plan Upgrade pill on the empty chat page now appears for team owners
October 6, 2026
Pictures from the web in answers
When seeing something helps, such as a device, a place, an interface, or a map, the agent can now show real images from its web search right in its answer, each with a link to the page it came from. Click an image to view it larger. Answers that don’t need pictures stay text only.Move files and folders by dragging or with Move to
On the Files page, in your personal files, drag a file or folder onto a folder to move it inside. Drop it on a breadcrumb or the new parent-folder row to move it back out. Every row’s menu also has a Move to option that opens a folder picker. Dropping files from your computer onto a folder now uploads them into that folder.Bug fixes
- Fixed iPhone photos (HEIC) failing to attach in chat on browsers other than Safari; they now convert and upload, and if a photo can’t be converted the original is uploaded instead of showing “Upload failed”
- Fixed agents tried from Discover always starting on the default model instead of the model the original agent was set to, within what your plan allows
October 5, 2026
Every new account starts with its own team
When you sign up, CREAO now creates a team for you automatically, named after you, such as “Alex’s team”. Your plan and credits power the whole team, and you can invite people to it for free. The pricing and billing pages describe your plan as the one that powers your team.Daily bonus credits for each team you own
The daily bonus credits are now granted once for each team you own, instead of once per account. Each grant is 5 credits, added to your own balance, which is the balance your team’s members spend from first. Owning several teams adds up to a maximum of 25 bonus credits a day.UI changes
- The animated background on the sign-in and sign-up pages is now skipped on slower devices and when your device is set to reduce motion, so those pages stay responsive
Bug fixes
- The slide deck progress card appears again while the agent builds a deck, showing the files as they are written. Notes and other working files no longer open the side panel or appear as stray files in your Files page
October 4, 2026
UI changes
- Opening a finished reply’s “Completed N steps” header now shows its contents indented under a thin line, so the step groups inside read as part of that reply instead of repeating the header above them
- Inside an opened reply, a stretch of just one step now shows as its own row, such as “Thought for 1s”, instead of a one-step group you had to open
Bug fixes
- New paid subscriptions no longer list the activation credit grant twice in Credit activity. Your credit balance was never affected
October 3, 2026
Transcripts with timestamps and speaker labels
Ask the agent to transcribe a recording with word-level timestamps, speaker labels, or both. It now also accepts video files directly, not just audio, and extracts the audio track itself. Along with the transcript in the chat, you get a full transcript file saved to your thread’s files, plus an SRT subtitle file when word timings are available. Timed and speaker-labeled transcription works on recordings up to 15 minutes, so split longer ones first.Clearer step labels in the chat
Inside an expanded group of steps, command steps now say what they did, such as “Ran build_book.py”, “Wrote file report.md”, “Installed img2pdf”, or “Listed files”, instead of every row reading “Ran a command”. The full command is still there when you expand the step.UI changes
- File cards and audio players in the chat are wider, so long file names fit
October 2, 2026
Eight new connectors: Zoom, Todoist, Box, Dropbox, Klaviyo, HighLevel, Evernote, and Vercel
Connect any of these from the Connectors page and the agent can work in them for you. Creating, changing, or deleting things is a write action, so it goes through the same approval flow as your other connectors.- Zoom — list, create, update, and cancel meetings; read registrants, past participants, cloud recordings, transcripts, and AI meeting summaries; manage webinars; and read team chat and phone call logs
- Todoist — create, update, complete, move, and search tasks; manage projects, sections, labels, filters, and comments; invite collaborators; and import or export tasks as CSV
- Box — search and browse files and folders, read file details and extracted text, upload files and new versions, download files into your conversation, and manage comments, shared links, and collaborators
- Dropbox — search and browse files and folders, upload and organize files, restore earlier versions, create shared links, and bring files into your conversation
- Klaviyo — search and update profiles, manage lists and their members, and read campaigns, flows, metrics, and performance reports. Campaigns and flows are read-only, and adding someone to a list does not record email consent
- HighLevel — create, update, and search contacts, add them to campaigns, manage sales pipelines and opportunities, and check calendar availability to book appointments
- Evernote — list and create notebooks, and read, create, and update notes
- Vercel — view projects and domains, check deployments and build logs, start a deployment from a linked GitHub repository, and cancel a build
Post videos to LinkedIn
With LinkedIn connected, the agent can now upload an MP4 video and publish it to your profile or a company page. Uploading and publishing are separate approvals, so a video can finish processing before you approve the post.Motion graphics in Video Studio
Video Studio now has a second creation mode, Opus 5.5 · Motion graphics. Describe what you want, choose a format (16:9, 9:16, or 1:1), length from 10 to 60 seconds, and resolution, and optionally add up to eight reference assets. The agent builds the animation, scores it with its own soundtrack, and the finished video appears on the stage next to your AI-generated clips. It uses credits like other agent work, and the examples gallery includes motion-graphics samples to start from.Rename files in Files
You can now rename a file from the Files page without re-uploading it; it stays in its folder.Team roster shows how many seats are left
The team roster now shows how many members you have out of your plan’s limit. When a team is full, the owner sees an Upgrade prompt right on the roster, and members can see whose plan sets the limit. Owners can also set a monthly credit limit for each team member from the settings icon on their row.Bug fixes
- Fixed video downloads from file cards and the Files page occasionally failing for a video that played fine in the chat
October 1, 2026
Teams now run on the owner’s plan and credits
Your team’s chats and agent runs now draw from the team owner’s credit balance, first come, first served, and the whole team shares the owner’s plan — so members get the same paid-plan access the owner has, with no seats to buy. Teams that already pay per seat keep working exactly as before. How many people a team can hold depends on the owner’s plan, counting the owner and any pending invites:
When a team is full, the invite message says so and names the limit; the owner gets an Upgrade shortcut to add more room.
Clearer “out of credits” messages for teams
When a team runs out of credits, the chat now says the team is out of credits and that your conversation is saved. The owner sees an Upgrade plan or add credits button; members are asked to contact the team owner instead of being sent to a personal upgrade they can’t use.Finished replies fold into one summary
Once the agent finishes a reply, everything before its closing message — steps, thinking, and running commentary — collapses into a single “Completed N steps” header. Files the agent delivers and any question or approval still waiting on you stay visible. Open the header to see the reply’s stretches of steps as their own collapsed groups, each of which opens on its own, and a long step list now scrolls inside a fixed-height window instead of running down the page.Connectors and tools you may have missed
Three capabilities have been available to everyone for a while but were never announced here — this puts them on the record.- Meta Ads (since September 14) — connect a Meta ad account to manage campaigns, ad sets, and ads, and read delivery performance. Creating or changing campaigns, budgets, and statuses are write actions, so they go through the same approval flow as your other connectors
- Gumroad (since August 26) — connect your Gumroad account to manage products and discount codes and read sales, subscriber, and summary data. Publishing products and issuing refunds are write actions and require approval
- Google PageSpeed audits (since August 12) — ask the agent to audit any public page and it reports both real-user Core Web Vitals field data and a Lighthouse diagnostic run, for a single page, a set of page types, or a competitor comparison. No connection needed
September 30, 2026
Approvals now live in a tray above the chat
Pending approvals for agent write actions — like sending an email or posting to a connected account — now appear in a small tray above the message composer instead of inline in the conversation. Preview, reject, or approve each action, or use Approve all / Reject all to handle several at once. Approving lets the agent continue in the same response instead of starting a new one, so multi-step approvals feel much faster.UI changes
- Team plans are now presented on the same pricing ladder as individual plans; organizations that haven’t already added seats see their enrollment status instead of a purchase form, while active team accounts keep full seat management
- Team-level connector settings are temporarily hidden during a redesign — already-connected team integrations keep running
- The “Generate video from a prompt” card on the empty chat page now opens Video Studio directly
Bug fixes
- Browser automation runs that failed to start now retry once automatically in a fresh session instead of repeatedly failing the same way
- Pro Plus, Max, and Ultra accounts can now upload any supported file type up to 100 MB — including PowerPoint, Word, Excel, ZIP, CSV, and audio — instead of only images, videos, and PDFs; other file types were previously held to the standard 10 MB limit
- A write action that fails no longer sits in the approval tray as if it still needs your decision; it stays in the conversation as its own card, where you can retry it
- Text-to-speech requests that come back without audio now retry automatically, falling back to a stronger voice model, instead of failing
September 29, 2026
Claude Sonnet 5.5 is now the default model
Claude Sonnet 5.5 is generally available and is now the default model for new chats — Anthropic’s latest balance of speed and intelligence for agentic coding and polished documents, slides, and spreadsheets. Claude Sonnet 5 remains available under Older versions.Claude Fable 5.1 now available
Claude Fable 5.1, Anthropic’s Fable-class research model for your hardest, highest-stakes work, is now generally available on paid plans.Gemini 3.8 Flash now available
Gemini 3.8 Flash is now generally available with full control over reasoning effort — choose low, medium, or high depending on how much the task needs.Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash replaces Omni Flash 1.0
Gemini Omni Flash 1.0 has been retired in favor of Omni 1.1. Any saved video preferences or in-progress jobs that referenced the older version now use 1.1 automatically, which adds a wider resolution range including a 4K tier.Connect Shopify with your own custom app
Shopify now connects through a store-owned custom app instead of a shared login — generate your app credentials in Shopify once, then use them to connect your store in CREAO.UI changes
- The voice recording bar now has a send button, so you can stop recording, transcribe, and send in one tap instead of confirming and sending separately
Bug fixes
- Fixed the mobile chat home screen sometimes scrolling the model picker out of view while the navigation toggle stayed visible
- Fixed opening a file in the side panel while the agent was still writing another — your selected file now stays open until you close the panel or switch chats
- Free users hitting the video generation limit now see the upgrade prompt again, instead of a generic error
- Fixed agents spawned during API-triggered runs sometimes leaving a pending approval nobody could resolve — they now stop immediately and explain why, matching the parent run’s behavior
September 28, 2026
Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue where running several chats at once could cause one to show a generic “Chat failed” message instead of the usual out-of-credits notice — and reloading a paused chat now always shows why it stopped, instead of leaving your last message with no explanation
September 26, 2026
Publish Instagram Stories and Reels
The Instagram connector now goes beyond feed posts: share image or video Stories, publish video Reels with captions and cover images, and check what’s currently live — all through the same approval flow as your other posts.Bug fixes
- Fixed conversations sometimes ending abruptly when a model declined to respond — the agent now recovers automatically, switching to a faster model and letting you know when that happens
- Scheduled agent app runs now show the correct next run time in your own clock and time zone, instead of an internal scheduling offset
- Removed a false prompt to upgrade to Pro Plus when analyzing images and videos that didn’t actually need it
- Long tool descriptions in the chat timeline now stay on one line, with the full text available on click
- Agents set to Ask first no longer perform write actions automatically on runs started from the API, CLI, or Slack — they now hold off and explain why under Pending approvals
September 24, 2026
Video Studio: a dedicated space for creating videos
Video Studio is now available to everyone — a page separate from chat, built for creating videos. Start from a blank prompt or a template like a product showcase or social ad, watch it render, and jump back into your recent takes without hunting through old chat threads.Slide decks get a built-in editor, live presenter view, and more export options
Building a slide deck now leads to a fully interactive experience: present it full-screen with speaker notes and smooth transitions between slides, mark up any element and ask the agent to revise it, or adjust text, images, and positioning directly on the canvas. Every completed change is saved as a new version, so you can always come back to an earlier draft. Decks can also include charts, code samples, diagrams, and step-by-step reveals, and download as PDF, PPTX (including a fully editable version), or an interactive HTML presentation.Bug fixes
- The agent can now look up your Google Ads account ID automatically for reports, instead of guessing or asking you to provide it
- YouTube search through the agent now supports more filters — like upload date, language, and video type — instead of rejecting requests that used them
- Selected outputs in Discover now open in a full-screen viewer with previous/next navigation, instead of a small dialog capped at 512 pixels
- Fixed losing your place when creating an account from a Discover agent page — you’re now returned to that agent after verifying your email instead of landing on general chat
- Fixed a rare issue where a conversation’s working files could vanish partway through a long-running task, causing the run to fail instead of continuing
September 23, 2026
Claude Opus 5.5 now available
Claude Opus 5.5, Anthropic’s newest Opus model, is now available in the chat model selector on paid plans — frontier reasoning and agentic coding with a 1M-token context window, priced below Claude Opus 5. Opus 5 remains available under Older versions for prompts tuned to it.GPT-6 Sol and GPT-6 Luna now available
Two new OpenAI models join the chat model selector on paid plans: GPT-6 Sol, a cost-efficient high-end option, and GPT-6 Luna, the fastest and most economical GPT-6 model — both with independent effort and reasoning-mode controls. GPT-5.6 has moved into Older versions.Buy the team plan straight from the pricing page
Buying a team plan is now a single flow: pick your seats and billing cycle on the pricing page, name your team, and pay — no separate seat setup or assignment step in between. You’re seated automatically, so you can invite teammates right away.Delegated work shows as a compact task list
When the agent delegates part of your request to background tasks, they now appear as a single compact block that updates live as each task runs. Open any task to see its progress, guidance, and output in a side panel, without leaving your conversation.Team shared drive matches your personal drive
The Shared Files tab now looks and works like your personal Files tab — breadcrumb navigation, inline folder creation, drag-and-drop upload, and file previews, with an access column showing who can view or edit each file.UI changes
- GPT-6 Sol and GPT-6 Luna carry a NEW badge in the model picker
Bug fixes
- Follow-up suggestion chips now appear after a delegated task finishes and reports back, instead of never showing up
- Auto-generated thread titles no longer fall back to the truncated conversation prompt when the generated name is short but written in a language like Chinese or Japanese
- Videos generated in a team conversation now appear in that team’s Video Studio history instead of your personal history
September 22, 2026
Slide decks start rendering faster
The first slide deck you build in a conversation now starts rendering right away instead of pausing through a one-time delay behind the scenes, so decks come together faster from the very first render.UI changes
- The Editorial slide deck theme can now include one restrained line illustration on cover and section-break pages, for a bit more visual character while keeping the theme’s clean, minimal look
Bug fixes
- Gmail search through the agent now works when it uses an alternate name for the search field, instead of being rejected
- A PDF the agent regenerates now updates in the open preview and its download link right away, instead of continuing to show the earlier version
- Scrolling up to reread part of the agent’s thinking while it’s still streaming no longer snaps you back to the bottom automatically
September 21, 2026
Upload a logo for your team
Owners and managers can now upload a logo for their team from Team Settings → Overview. It shows up everywhere your team’s identity appears — the pill above your chat home greeting, the workspace switcher, and settings — replacing the generic building icon. Drop an image on the tile and it saves immediately, with no crop step or separate save button. Teams without a logo continue to show their initials.Team Pulse now has separate lanes for agents, schedules, and skills
The Team Pulse activity feed on your team’s chat home has moved from one shared list to three dedicated lanes — one each for agents, scheduled runs, and skills — so it’s easier to catch the updates you care about. A schedule change only shows up while its agent is actually shared with the team, and run results are never shown.See what’s shared with your team, and get nudged to publish
Your Skills and Agents pages now show which items are shared with your team versus kept private, with clear labels and a filter to switch between them. Right after you create something in a team, a banner offers to publish it in one click, and a light reminder appears if you have unpublished items sitting around.More flexible usage limits across chat, image, and video
The previous one-hour-only spending limit is now a set of usage limits that scale sensibly across hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly windows, for chat, image, and video generation alike — so limits reflect how you actually use CREAO instead of one narrow window. Free-plan video generation, previously capped at one video ever, now resets every 30 days instead.UI changes
- Agents now have a “View version history” entry in their row ”…” menu and detail overflow menu, matching skills, so you can review previous versions without going through Share or an update prompt
- A turn’s web and academic searches now fold into the same step count as the rest of its activity, instead of splitting the activity log into extra rows
Bug fixes
- Chat’s activity log now shows a clear, translated description for every agent action, instead of sometimes falling back to an internal code name for less common actions
- Switching teams in Video Studio now shows only that team’s video history, instead of mixing in clips from other teams or your personal library
- A video generation request that can’t reach its usual provider may now automatically continue on another model with the same settings, instead of failing outright
September 20, 2026
A trial credit boost when you create a team
Creating a team now opens your shared credit pool with a one-time 30-credit grant — enough to chat, run agents, and publish a shared team agent together right away, before anyone buys a seat. The existing 100-credit bonus for adding your first paid seats is unchanged, so a team that goes on to buy seats gets both.Bug fixes
- Fixed a browser task that failed partway through returning nothing useful; it now shows what it had already completed and offers to continue from there instead of starting over
- A failed browser task now shows a clear, readable reason instead of a raw technical error
September 19, 2026
See the status of your reference files in Video Studio
Video Studio now has a Library tab that tracks every photo, video, or audio clip you’ve used as a reference. If a reference shows a real person, it may need a quick verification step before it can be used in a generation — the Library tab shows exactly where each file stands, so a request is never refused without an explanation you can act on.Google Ads search-terms reporting
Ask your agent for a Google Ads search-terms report to see which exact searches triggered your ads, broken down by campaign or ad group with impressions, clicks, cost, and conversions.Faster slide deck creation
Building and editing slide decks now completes noticeably faster, with less waiting between steps.UI changes
- Anthropic models in the model picker are now grouped by version series (Fable, Opus, Sonnet, Haiku) instead of ordered purely by release date, so related versions stay together
Bug fixes
- Fixed browser tasks sometimes running under an older saved login instead of the one you were actually using, when you have more than one saved login for the same site
- Fixed some browser tasks failing outright due to a mix-up between saved logins; they now fall back to your default login instead of stopping the run
September 18, 2026
Bug fixes
- Fixed a red error symbol briefly flashing on-screen while a math formula was still being written out in a response
- Fixed a browser task occasionally missing some of the files it produced, or returning a duplicate of a file you had already uploaded instead of the file the task actually created
September 17, 2026
Attach files from your Files library in chat
The composer’s + menu now has an “Add from CREAO Files” entry, so you can attach a file you already uploaded straight from your Files library instead of uploading it again. Pick one or more files from the picker and they attach by reference, ready to use in the conversation.The agent can now read large PDFs page by page
Large PDF uploads are read directly by the agent instead of through a limited summary index, so it can answer questions about a specific page — including image-only pages — instead of a generic “can’t read this” response.UI changes
- Chat’s activity log now folds every step — including single steps and steps that failed — into one “Completed N steps” summary, instead of showing a row per step
- The composer’s attach menu now labels each entry by where the file comes from, so “Add from CREAO Files” reads clearly apart from your device’s local file picker
Bug fixes
- Math notation in chat (
\( \),\[ \], and$ $forms) now renders correctly instead of showing stray brackets or misformatted text, while prices and placeholders remain untouched - A failed video clip now shows its status badge along with the specific reason and full detail behind the failure, instead of a generic, truncated message
- The agent no longer keeps re-examining an image it can’t read; it now gives up gracefully instead of running silently for minutes with no visible response
- Fixed an inconsistency where a large PDF fetched from a link could exceed your plan’s size limit even though the same file would be blocked as a direct upload
September 16, 2026
Creating a team now comes with a welcome offer
Right after you create a team, a one-time welcome screen now walks through what your team already gets, what paid seats add, and what’s coming next — including an offer of 100 bonus credits for your shared pool when you add your first seats. It only appears once and can be dismissed.Bug fixes
- Video content-policy rejections now name the specific reference image, clip, or prompt that triggered them, with a one-click way to remove that input or edit your prompt, instead of one generic message
- Fixed the agent endlessly retrying GitHub actions after the app connection was uninstalled or revoked; you’ll now see a prompt to reconnect GitHub instead
September 15, 2026
CREAO’s own Slack app is now available to everyone
You can now install CREAO directly into your Slack workspace from Settings → Integrations, bringing the agent into your channels instead of only reaching it through the general Slack connector. Once installed — for yourself or shared with your whole team — mention it to get help, set a default agent it routes requests to, restrict it to specific channels, and cap how many runs it can start per channel each day. Admins can review or revoke the connection at any time, and reconnecting a workspace already linked by a teammate now asks for confirmation first.Contextual file memory alongside skills
Beyond your custom skills, the agent can now save and recall contextual knowledge — plans, client or project records, brand style guides, and other reference material — from the Memory page. Saved context is picked up automatically in future conversations, and you can archive, restore, or permanently delete any context file at any time.UI changes
- Video results in chat now have an Extend button beside Edit, which prefills a prompt asking the agent to continue the clip from its last frame
- Generated videos now play inline in chat, in both fullscreen and a compact thumbnail view, instead of opening a separate preview
- Personal-plan users now see gentle prompts — a sidebar link, a dismissible chat banner, and a showcase card — introducing the Team feature, until they set one up
- The pricing page has shorter plan cards, one consolidated control row, and Team pricing in its own tab, with team seat pricing shown directly to personal-plan users
- “Organization” is now called “Team” throughout the product, including settings, member management, and error messages
- The “wrapping up” message shown when stopping a web-browsing run now allows up to two and a half minutes instead of ninety seconds, so slower runs settle correctly
Bug fixes
- Fixed team members with an active team seat not getting premium video access (models, unlimited queue) unless they also had a personal paid plan
- Fixed logging out sometimes not completing if the app was closed right after
- Logging out now takes you to the sign-in screen immediately, instead of waiting on background cleanup
- Fixed Slack conversations getting stuck silently when a run never reported back — the bot now recovers and explains what happened
- Fixed the Slack bot going silent after hitting its daily run limit — it now explains why instead of ignoring further messages
- YouTube connector errors are now specific (no channel, missing permission, video not yours) instead of a generic reconnect prompt
- Fixed published agent gallery images not loading for logged-out visitors
- Fixed the schedule dialog clipping its Save button and other controls with long inputs, and removed a stray empty preview row
- Fixed sign-in with Google or Apple failing inside Facebook, Instagram, or Messenger’s in-app browser; you’ll now see a notice to continue in email or a full browser
- Fixed a rare bug where the assistant’s reply could continue into fabricated dialogue after its real answer ended; that extra text is now cut off
- Fixed a stray focus ring flashing on Account Settings when it opens
- Fixed the agent failing to open reference files stored in a subfolder within a skill
- Fixed the credit total shown in chat sometimes splitting into two numbers instead of one accurate total when a request used a model that bills asynchronously, like video
- Fixed the Stop button sometimes not actually cancelling a run that was still starting up
- Chat’s activity log no longer splits into extra blocks around a routine step failure that retries on its own
- DeepSeek Flash now runs on an upgraded V4.1 model for better quality, using the same picker selection
September 10, 2026
Nano Banana Pro and Nano Banana 2 Lite
Two more Gemini-based image models are now available in the image picker and the chat composer’s image settings: Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image), the highest-quality option with a resolution control up to 4K, and Nano Banana 2 Lite (Gemini 3.1 Flash-Lite Image), a faster and lower-cost option for everyday generation. Nano Banana 2 is unchanged.Discover is now the home for exploring agents
Personalized agent recommendations have moved out of Apps and into Discover, so there’s one place to find and try agents. Recommended agents now open full detail pages — with a description, example output, and the same “Try now” flow as catalogue agents — and Discover detail pages show which connectors an agent needs and whether you’re already connected before you try it.UI changes
- Running chat steps like “Reading file…” now show a subtle shimmer while they’re in progress instead of solid dark text, making it clearer at a glance what’s still working
Bug fixes
- Fixed custom skill installs and enabling occasionally failing right after creation
- Fixed a rare error that could interrupt a chat if the sandbox environment needed to reconnect
- Fixed image previews sometimes going blank after reopening them
- Fixed account settings scrolling under the home indicator on some phones
- Clarified the error the agent shows when it can’t access a GitHub repository
- Fixed a bug where the agent could get stuck repeating tiny broken blocks of content instead of a real response in long conversations
September 9, 2026
GPT Image 2.5
Two new image models are rolling out to the image picker and the chat composer’s image settings: GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst (tagged Quality — the highest fidelity and the most precise edits) and GPT Image 2.5 Flare (tagged Speed — fast everyday generation at GPT Image 2 quality). Both bill at the same rates as GPT Image 2. Access is staged, so they may not appear in your picker yet; GPT Image 2 and the Nano Banana models are unchanged. Once available to you, they add two quality rungs above High — Extra high and Max — and they support transparent backgrounds, which GPT Image 2 does not. A new Background control (Auto / Opaque / Transparent) appears both in Image settings and in the chat composer’s image settings whenever a 2.5 model is selected. Transparency needs an alpha channel, so choosing it switches the output format to PNG for you.September 6, 2026
Developer API supported models
GET /v1/models is removed. The accepted model ids now live on Supported Models. Run-creating endpoints now accept google/gemini-3.8-flash (entitlement-gated). Request examples stay on the Models guide.
September 5, 2026
Large file uploads and analysis for Pro Plus and up
Pro Plus, Max, and Ultra accounts can now upload much larger files directly — images up to 100 MB, videos up to 500 MB, and PDFs up to 100 MB — each drawing from its own storage allowance on top of your regular file storage. The agent can look into these directly too: it examines sampled frames and metadata for video, overview and detail views for images, and page content for PDFs, without pulling the original file into the chat. Free and Pro accounts keep the standard 10 MB upload limit.Printable book skill available by default
The printable book skill — for coloring books, planners, activity books, and other multi-page, print-ready PDFs — is now on by default for every account. You can still turn it off from the Skills page if you don’t want the agent to use it.OneDrive as a shared organization integration
Organization admins can now share a single Microsoft OneDrive connection with the whole team, so members no longer need to sign in to Microsoft individually to use it.Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue where tapping Connect on a connector from the iOS app could show an error instead of the provider’s sign-in page
September 4, 2026
Developer API models
GET /v1/models and run-creating endpoints now accept deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash and moonshotai/kimi-k3. They were already in the product picker; they are now first-class Developer API ids. openai/gpt-5.6-terra was already listed and stays entitlement-gated.
Model picker cleanup
Claude Fable 5, GPT-5.5 and GLM 5.2 now sit under Older versions in their provider’s group, since each has a successor in the main list. They stay fully selectable at unchanged pricing — if one of them is your current model, its group opens already expanded. The green NEW badge is now reserved for the newest few releases instead of most of the list. How the list is orderedDeveloper API account usage
Account API keys can now read their own platform-wallet balance and rolling 24-hour Developer API spend withGET /v1/account/usage. credits.available is the CREAO wallet shown in Developer Console. used_24h is reported API spend, not the internal billing ledger. Get account usage
Bug fixes
- Fixed agents sometimes describing question choices in plain text instead of showing the interactive question card when started from the agent’s card
- Fixed the agent appearing to freeze for several minutes when asked to search across a large number of workspace files
- Improved reliability of suggested follow-up prompts, which were sometimes missing after a response
- Fixed uneven card heights in the connector catalog caused by Etsy’s required attribution notice — it now appears as a single line below the grid
September 3, 2026
Developer API public render protocol
Realtime Developer API runs now streamapplication/x-ndjson instead of Server-Sent Events. Each line is one typed JSON object (run.created includes render_protocol: 1). The stream now includes thinking, search, and todo cards, plus opaque tool start/end without tool input or output. Existing SSE / EventSource clients must switch to incremental NDJSON parsing. Streaming Events
Full thinking content on completed Developer API runs
Fetching a completed run now returns the model’s full thinking text on each thinking block, in the same order it streamed — not just a marker. List and webhook payloads still return markers only. Streaming EventsBug fixes
- Fixed an issue where suggested follow-up prompts could occasionally cut off part of the agent’s response
- Reduced false “response cut short” warnings appearing on responses that had actually finished
September 2, 2026
Per-model usage on Developer API runs
Developer API runs and streaming events now include a usage breakdown by model — one row per model and capability (chat, vision, image, video, or speech) — so you can see exactly which models a run used. Streaming eventsBug fixes
- The out-of-credits message now shows your current credit balance
- Fixed the daily credits total showing lower than it actually is on accounts with a subscription balance owed, and corrected the reset time shown for daily credits — they refresh nightly, not on your billing cycle date
- Fixed subscription credit grants showing up as “Adjustment” instead of “Subscription” in your credit activity history
September 1, 2026
UI changes
- Moved the “Try now” button next to the run and like stats on agent detail pages
Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue that could cause posts to X (Twitter) longer than the standard limit to be rejected, even for accounts eligible to post longer content
- Fixed a flickering glitch when swiping through a slide deck preview on mobile
- Fixed Discover agent cards not updating their view and try counts
- Fixed duplicated message text appearing in chat when a queued reply arrived while a response was still streaming
- Improved reliability for long-running agent sessions, including recovering from lost workspace access and retrying a failed image analysis
August 31, 2026
Signup credits for partner and creator links
Signing up through a partner or creator’s invite link can now include a welcome credit bonus, shown right on the signup page and added to your account once you verify your email.August 30, 2026
GLM 5.3 Flash now available
GLM 5.3 Flash from Z.ai is now in the model selector — the fast, low-cost sibling of GLM 5.3, with the same 1M-token context window, vision, and tool support. It’s the cheapest model in the picker and always reasons, with the same effort choices as GLM 5.3. Compare models.Developer API Super Agent and product profile
The Developer API now has a dedicated Super Agent surface and a once-per-account product profile:GET/PUT /v1/product-profilestores persona and brand contextPOST /v1/super-agent/runsandPOST /v1/super-agent/realtime/runschat with CREAO Super AgentGET /v1/super-agent/runsandGET /v1/super-agent/runs/{run_id}list and fetch Super Agent rows only- Agent Runs (

August 29, 2026
GLM 5.3 now available
GLM 5.3 from Z.ai is now in the model selector. It’s the successor to GLM 5.2 — built for long-horizon agentic coding, with a 1M-token context window at the same low credit cost. GLM 5.3 always reasons: you can choose how much effort it spends, but reasoning can’t be switched off. Compare models.Discover agent detail pages
Some agents in Discover now open to a dedicated detail page with a description, example outputs, and an install button, so you can see what an agent does before adding it.Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue where editing an agent app could silently fail or apply to the wrong app; a save that doesn’t succeed now shows a clear error message
- Fixed a bug where interjecting a message into a running agent’s turn could be silently lost instead of being delivered
- Fixed an issue where very long conversations could cause the agent to repeatedly fail to respond instead of completing
August 28, 2026
Auto-select model tiers for organizations
Members of an organization plan now get the same Auto-select experience as personal accounts — CREAO automatically picks the best available model for your tier instead of falling back to the full model list.Rename agents
You can now rename an existing agent directly from its overflow menu, without needing to recreate it.UI changes
- Organization agent pages now default to list view instead of the card grid, matching personal agents
Bug fixes
- Fixed a billing issue where the fast Veo 3.1 video model used up to 50% more credits than intended
- Fixed an issue where the agent’s GitHub tools could fail to update files or create repositories
- Fixed an issue where some Shopify actions, like looking up articles or updating inventory, could fail unexpectedly
- Fixed an issue where posting to X (Twitter) could fail or be rejected without a clear explanation
- Fixed a layout issue where an organization’s shared files stretched unevenly on wide screens
August 27, 2026
Privacy agreement and AI disclosure on iOS
Before signing in on iOS, you’ll now see the full privacy policy to review and agree to. The first time you use AI features, you’ll also see a one-time notice explaining that your messages and files are shared with third-party AI providers to power your agent, with a link to the full policy. You can revisit the policy anytime from a new Privacy tab in Settings.UI changes
- Checkout on iOS now opens in Safari and automatically returns you to the app when you’re done
- Organization Agents now opens on an “All agents” view, with separate “Created by you” and “Shared with you” tabs and a dedicated status filter
- Shared (read-only) organization agents now show the same schedule and last/next run details as your own agents
Bug fixes
- Fixed a bug where sending a follow-up message while the agent was still finishing its previous response could make the chat appear stuck showing “Queued” forever, even though your message had been received and handled
August 26, 2026
QuickBooks connector
Connect QuickBooks Online to let your agent read financial reports (profit and loss, balance sheet, cash flow) and manage invoices and customers — creating, sending, and searching invoices, and searching customers.Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue where creating X (Twitter) article drafts through the agent would always fail
- Fixed a bug where signing up or logging in could fail in browsers that block site storage access, such as certain privacy or tracking-prevention settings
- Fixed an issue where the agent couldn’t read image attachments in chat and reported them as unsupported
August 25, 2026
Developer API skills on /v1/runs
Account-level skills installed or enabled at /v1/skills are available to the same account’s /v1/runs. A run does not take a per-run skill list, so it sees enabled custom skills plus all built-in skills. Runs that pass agent_id still also follow that agent’s own SKILL.md.
See Skills.
August 24, 2026
Developer API: list and get agents
Account API keys can now list personal agents and fetch one agent includingskill_content, config_content, config, and dashboard_template. List responses stay metadata-only.
Developer API: run results and notifications
POST /v1/runs now accepts the documented should_notify boolean. GET /v1/runs/{run_id} issues short-lived artifact download URLs, and ?raw_output=true returns the full assistant transcript when it was persisted separately from a session summary.
August 21, 2026
UI changes
- Discover agent cards now say “Try now” instead of “Open” on their call-to-action button
August 20, 2026
Video editing comes to Gemini Omni Flash
Gemini Omni Flash can now generate a video that keeps a consistent subject by using one or more reference images, and can edit an existing video by giving it as a reference — the first video-editing capability available without a paid plan.More actions across Google Docs, Slack, Google Tasks, and Google Ads
Your agent can now create and remove tables in Google Docs, verify incoming Slack requests, search and manage Google Tasks (including subtasks), and upload offline conversions to Google Ads.Bug fixes
- Fixed some agents installed from a Discover Featured listing opening with outdated skill files instead of the version the listing was actually updated to
August 19, 2026
Bug fixes
- Fixed reference files other than the main skill file being dropped when trying out an agent from Discover
- Fixed a delay of up to several hours between when your plan renewed and when your credits actually refreshed — credits now refresh right on schedule
- Fixed an issue where agent responses could briefly show duplicated or garbled text while streaming
August 18, 2026
Developer API: account skills
The Developer API can now install, list, and enable account-level Agent Brain skills at/v1/skills — the same catalog as agent.creao.ai/skills. Disable turns a skill off without deleting it. These skills apply to chat / Agent Brain and to /v1/runs for that account.
See Skills.
Developer API: workspace files
The Developer API can now upload, list, download, and delete files in a personal workspace, then pass thatworkspace_id on async and realtime runs so the agent can read them.
See Workspace files.
Bug fixes
- Fixed monthly credits occasionally not refilling on the expected date for accounts that renewed a little late — your renewal date no longer drifts later with each delayed cycle
- Fixed the agent sometimes giving answers about your plan’s capabilities, like scheduled runs or media generation limits, that didn’t match what your account actually allows
August 17, 2026
Clearer agent run history
Agent run cards on the Agent Apps page now show plain-language titles and summaries of what happened, instead of raw trigger text or technical IDs — making it easier to scan past runs and see their inputs and artifacts at a glance.Bug fixes
- Fixed some video generations failing when the requested resolution wasn’t supported by the selected quality tier — unsupported combinations now automatically adjust to a supported resolution instead of failing
- Fixed the agent occasionally misreading or ignoring the message you typed when running an agent from its detail page
- Fixed the agent getting a generic, unhelpful error when a query against a connected database failed — it now sees the actual problem and can correct the query
- Fixed running an agent through the API sometimes behaving differently than running the same agent from its detail page
August 16, 2026
Developer API: workspaces and secrets
The Developer API can now manage personal workspaces and account secrets:- Create and list personal workspaces, then add or unassign personal agents at
/v1/workspaces - Add, update, list, or delete account secret keys at
/v1/secrets— values are write-only and never returned
August 13, 2026
UI changes
- Workspace settings now open in a dialog instead of navigating to a separate page — edit the name, description, and color without leaving your workspace
Bug fixes
- Fixed markdown files that start with a metadata block (frontmatter) showing it as an oversized heading in previews — it now displays as a clean summary table
- Fixed the workspace recent-chats list not showing a conversation right after you sent a message in it
- Fixed misaligned padding in the file list on the mobile workspace Files tab
- Fixed pinned chats disappearing from the sidebar once they fell outside your most recently active conversations — pinned chats now always stay visible, no matter how long ago they were active
- Fixed attachments with non-English file names (Chinese, Japanese, Cyrillic, accented Latin, and similar) sometimes becoming unreadable by the agent after upload
- Fixed the “Open in Safari” prompt not actually opening Safari when signing in from Instagram’s or LinkedIn’s in-app browser
- Fixed the account-deletion notice banner appearing partly hidden behind the notch on some phones
August 12, 2026
A new look for Discover
Discover now opens with a community spotlight highlighting agents built in the open, followed by collections organized by discipline — Sales, Marketing, Product, Customer Success, Operations, Finance, Career, and Creative — so you can browse by the kind of work you need done. A featured shelf highlights hand-picked agents, and the full agent catalogue below is more compact and easier to scan.Bug fixes
- Fixed scheduled runs appearing stuck as pending for accounts without scheduling access — you’ll now see the upgrade prompt directly
- Fixed the agent repeatedly retrying image generation requests that had been rejected and could never succeed — it now explains the reason instead of trying again
- Fixed some chat dashboards leaving an empty or broken block behind when part of their content failed to load, instead of hiding it cleanly
August 11, 2026
Bug fixes
- Fixed Google sign-in failing to complete when opened from Instagram’s or LinkedIn’s in-app browser — you’ll now get clearer guidance to continue in your device’s regular browser
- Fixed files with non-English names (for example, Chinese, Japanese, or Korean) published from a workflow run being renamed to underscores, and occasionally appearing twice in your workspace
- Fixed the model picker locking while a response was streaming — you can now switch models at any time, and your choice applies starting with your next message
August 10, 2026
Shared secrets for your organization
Organizations can now store secrets — API keys, tokens, and credentials — that any member’s agent runs can use, in addition to your existing personal secrets. Any member can add an organization secret, but only its creator can edit or delete it, and the value is never shown again after saving. Find them under Organization Settings → Secrets.August 9, 2026
Bug fixes
- Fixed a rare case where the agent would announce it was about to make edits and then stop without completing them; it now retries automatically instead of stalling
- Fixed a rare case where the agent could get stuck repeating itself during a long response and return a truncated answer; it now recognizes the loop and retries instead
- Fixed longer, tool-heavy tasks occasionally having their final response cut off mid-sentence, by reserving more room for the agent to finish
- Fixed a thread’s displayed model sometimes reverting to a different option after you’d used a different model in another thread
August 8, 2026
Every agent now runs on one model, everywhere
Each agent has a Default model setting in its sidebar that governs how it runs — whether you start it manually, continue it in chat, run it on a schedule, or trigger it through the API. Previously, the same agent could end up on a different model depending on how it was started; now it’s consistent everywhere. Learn more.Outlook Calendar connector
Connect your Outlook Calendar to view, create, and update calendar events, check availability, and RSVP to invitations — a separate connection from the existing Outlook email connector.Referral rewards now start at your friend’s first paid plan
We simplified how referral rewards work. Signing up with a referral link no longer grants an immediate credit bonus on its own — you’ll still earn your reward once the friend you invited upgrades to a paid plan.UI changes
- The schedule form now shows the 5-minute minimum spacing between runs as you configure it, with an inline message, instead of only after you try to save
- The Discover feed no longer leaves an empty gap when only one agent is pinned as Community Featured — it now packs neatly beside the next listing
August 7, 2026
Discover now highlights Community Featured agents
A curated “Community Featured” section now appears at the top of the Discover feed, spotlighting standout community agents chosen by the CREAO team. Featured picks carry a Community Featured badge, follow your selected category filter, and step aside automatically while you’re searching.Bug fixes
- Fixed the agent occasionally ending your turn early during a long-running task — like rendering a video or installing packages — by mistaking active progress for a stalled or lost sandbox
August 6, 2026
Write autonomy and approvals is now available to everyone
CREAO’s write autonomy system — previously in beta — is now available to everyone. Every agent has an Autonomy setting in its sidebar: Approval required shows a preview card for each action with real-world consequences (sending an email, posting a message, and the like) and waits for your decision, while Full auto lets validated actions run immediately without pausing. Learn more.The agent can now propose a workflow on its own
Breaking a big request into a multi-step plan used to require starting with/workflow. Now the agent can propose a workflow — a visual graph of connected tasks — directly in normal chat whenever your request would benefit from running multiple steps, without you needing to ask for it first. You still review and approve the plan before anything runs.
UI changes
- Browser tab titles now lead with the page name (e.g. “Settings | CREAO”) instead of always starting with CREAO, so it’s easier to find the right tab when you have several open
Bug fixes
- Fixed several cases where answering an in-chat question, approving an action, providing a requested secret, or replying right after the agent paused could be silently ignored or leave the conversation stuck
- Fixed the agent occasionally getting stuck when a question offered too many answer options — extra options are now trimmed instead of failing the question
- Fixed a failed request to create a new agent silently looking like it succeeded; you’ll now see a clear error naming the agent that failed
- Fixed
/workflowsometimes treating your answer to its clarifying question as an ordinary chat message and running the task directly instead of proposing a workflow - Fixed invalid workflow proposals occasionally leaving duplicate error cards in the conversation
- Fixed agent replies occasionally cutting off mid-sentence when follow-up suggestions appeared at the same time
- Fixed disabling a custom skill not actually stopping the agent from using it
- Fixed a brief flash to the chat home screen when starting a new conversation from an agent
August 5, 2026
Pro Plus becomes the entry point for scheduled runs and durable renders
CREAO’s personal plans got a refresh. Pro remains the starting paid tier for agent work, while scheduled runs and durable, long-running video and audio renders now start at Pro Plus. Max and Ultra get a real boost in how many scheduled runs and renders can run side by side. If you’re already on Pro with scheduled runs or durable renders, you keep that access for as long as your subscription stays active without a lapse.UI changes
- Refined the visual design of the chat activity timeline, with clearer icons and improved spacing in both collapsed and expanded views
Bug fixes
- An open PDF in the side panel no longer goes blank the moment the next chat turn finishes
- Fixed the side panel sometimes opening an incidental scratch file instead of the file the agent actually published; published PDFs now open automatically in the side panel
- Fixed workflow runs sometimes showing the wrong model name and total cost in the turn’s cost details popover
August 4, 2026
More actions across 11 connectors
Google Ads, Google Drive, Slack, Google Sheets, Asana, Perplexity, Google Docs, Firecrawl, Microsoft Teams, Linear, and Google Calendar all gained new actions for your agent to use — including richer Google Ads reporting and more ways to work with Slack messages, Asana tasks, and Google Sheets.UI changes
- The subscription coupon field on the pricing page is now hidden when using the iOS app (still available on web and Android)
Bug fixes
- Fixed clicking an Organization Settings link (like “Design your seats”) sometimes doing nothing if you were already on a different settings tab
- Fixed the Agents icon in the sidebar rendering with the wrong line weight on desktop
August 3, 2026
Gmail and Outlook connectors gained more capabilities
The Gmail and Outlook connectors can now read a message’s full body, manage folders and shared mailboxes, mark messages read or unread, add or remove labels and categories, and look up your own account details — closing several gaps where the agent previously couldn’t act on parts of your inbox.UI changes
- Account Settings now opens directly to the Settings section instead of Profile
- Refined the Account Settings modal’s layout and sizing across screen sizes, with mobile Appearance options now fitting on a single row
- Moved sidebar search into the header, next to the collapse control
- Files like Markdown, HTML, source code, CSV, and PDFs now consistently open in the persistent side panel, regardless of how the agent produced them
Bug fixes
- Fixed the collapse arrow disappearing on expanded Pinned and Recents sections in the sidebar
- Fixed the Android back button sometimes closing the app instead of the currently open panel
- Fixed dialogs opened from within a panel sometimes appearing behind it and being unclickable
- Fixed a rare issue where a generated file’s content could be overwritten by a placeholder, leaving the artifact panel showing an incomplete file
August 1, 2026
Chat activity folds into a single row on long runs
Long agent runs used to fill your conversation with a row for every command, thought, and file edit. Now, consecutive tool and thinking steps fold into one collapsible “Completed N steps” row — expand it any time to see everything that happened. While a run is still going, finished steps tuck behind a live counter so only the current step shows below it. Errors and generated files stay visible without expanding, so you never lose track of what needs your attention.The agent can explain how CREAO works
Ask things like “how do scheduled runs work” or “what does /workflow do” and the agent now answers directly from CREAO’s own documentation and links you to the full page for more detail, instead of guessing or searching around.Bug fixes
- Updating an agent with an oversized skill now shows a clear message about the size limit instead of quietly failing, so you’re not stuck retrying the same change forever
- Fixed drafts in the Describe tab of an agent’s run form being lost when you switched to the Form tab and back
- The “bring over form inputs” link on the Describe tab now only appears when there’s something new to bring in
- Agent emails sent through Gmail or Outlook no longer include a link back to the conversation
July 31, 2026
Claude Opus 5 is now available
Claude Opus 5, Anthropic’s newest Opus model, is now available in the chat model selector on paid plans — frontier reasoning and coding with a 1M-token context window, priced the same as Claude Opus 4.8.Standard and Premium team plans
Organizations now choose between two dedicated team plans — Standard and Premium — when adding seats, each with its own monthly or yearly price and credit allowance, replacing the older per-seat pricing carried over from individual plans. Teams can now start with as few as 2 seats instead of 5, and assigning a seat to a teammate who doesn’t have a CREAO account yet now sends them a signup invite that reserves the seat instead of showing an error.UI changes
- Account Settings for organization-only accounts (created by accepting a team invite) now hides the personal-only Billing, Secrets, and API Keys tabs, since organization billing and secrets live under Organization Settings instead
- The “Recommended” badge on the team plans page now appears on the Premium tier
Bug fixes
- Fixed some organizations on the new team plans being incorrectly shown as free tier, which could block access to paid features like Memory
- Fixed the agent occasionally losing track of an actively-loaded skill’s instructions in very long conversations, after older messages were summarized to save space
- Fixed Fugu Ultra and Muse Spark occasionally failing with an error instead of returning a normal reply
July 30, 2026
Bug fixes
- Fixed a crash that could happen when opening the run form for an agent whose form includes a “let the agent decide” style dropdown option
- Fixed a multiselect dropdown inside dialog popups not responding to clicks
- Fixed clicking a dropdown option in the agents list sometimes navigating away to the agent’s detail page instead of making a selection
- The agent no longer shows a red error message when it briefly pauses to wait for your response — it now shows a calm “Paused” status instead
July 29, 2026
New scheduled runs default to a more cost-efficient model
Creating a new scheduled run now seeds its model to MiniMax M3 instead of your chat model preference — a more cost-efficient default for unattended, background runs. You can still pick a different model when setting up the schedule, and existing schedules keep the model they already have.Agent emails now link back to the conversation
When the agent sends an email on your behalf through Gmail or Outlook, it now appends a link back to the CREAO conversation, so anyone who receives the email can see the full context behind it.July 28, 2026
Connect your own database
Organizations can now connect an external PostgreSQL or Amazon Redshift database so agents can query company data directly. Share access to a connected database with individual teammates instead of only organization owners and admins, and control exactly which tables and columns of a database each agent is allowed to see. Data quotas are split into defaults (what a new agent starts with) and ceilings (the maximum the whole organization allows), so no agent can be configured to exceed your organization’s limits. Setting up or editing a connection — connection details, schema, instructions, and quota — now happens in one guided wizard instead of several separate dialogs.Manage access to shared agents
Grant or change a teammate’s access to a shared agent directly from the Agents list, without opening the agent first. Re-running an agent’s setup wizard to make a small change now lets you jump straight to any earlier step instead of clicking Continue through every step again.Scheduled runs now require Pro Plus or higher
Running agents automatically on a schedule now requires Pro Plus or higher. On Free and Pro, your existing schedules stay saved and you can pause or delete them, but they won’t run again until you upgrade.PDF page limit for the free plan
Generated PDFs longer than 10 pages now require a paid plan. Quick renders and PDFs up to 10 pages remain free on every plan.UI changes
- On mobile, the search, share, and action-approval popups now open as full-screen panels instead of small desktop-style boxes
- Account settings on mobile now opens as a swipe-down sheet, and switching between sections always starts you at the top
- The connectors panel now opens as a swipe-to-dismiss sheet on mobile, and the keyboard no longer pops up unexpectedly when you open it
Bug fixes
- Fixed database connection scans failing for Redshift sources, optional schemas, or unclear driver errors
- Fixed organization admins being unable to delete a database connection they had permission to remove
- Fixed saving a database connection that uses an SSH tunnel
- If a video or image render needs a paid plan, you’ll now see a clear upgrade notice instead of the file silently disappearing
July 27, 2026
Any org member can publish an agent to the whole team
Publishing an agent org-wide used to be limited to org owners and managers. Now any member can publish an agent so the rest of the organization can use it — sharing an agent is treated as ordinary collaboration. Connecting a data source is unaffected and still requires an owner or manager.Org owners can reassign member roles
Org owners can now promote a member to manager or demote a manager back to member directly from the organization’s member list, without removing and re-inviting them.UI changes
- The organization member menu and organization plan page now consistently say “Organization Settings” instead of “Dashboard”
- The SSH bastion host-key fingerprint and database schema fields are now optional when connecting a database through an SSH tunnel — pin the fingerprint for extra protection, or rely on full TLS certificate verification instead
Bug fixes
- Fixed Pioneer Program referral rewards occasionally getting stuck instead of crediting your account when you referred more than the usual daily limit
- Fixed the Season 2 trading challenge enrollment step rejecting wallets with the correct balance due to minor rounding
- The Season 2 webhook URL now clears after a page refresh so you can generate a fresh one instead of reusing a stale link
July 26, 2026
Free plan simplified to the Lite tier
Free-plan users now pick from the Lite tier only in the chat model picker. Standard and Advanced both require a paid plan — selecting either shows a lock icon and takes you to the pricing page. Paid users are unaffected and can still use all three tiers. Compare plans.UI changes
- Locked tier rows in the model picker now show a lock icon and route straight to the pricing page
July 25, 2026
Free credits for new team plans
When your team activates its first paid seat, CREAO now adds a one-time bonus of 100 shared credits to your organization’s credit pool — so team features that draw from shared credits work right away instead of requiring a separate credit purchase first.UI changes
- The pricing page now shows what each plan includes for video generation — the Free plan’s one included video, and credit-backed additional videos plus long-running background renders on paid plans
Bug fixes
- Fixed the credit purchase panel showing a “minimum purchase” message when the amount you entered actually exceeded the maximum allowed
- Fixed generated files sometimes appearing multiple times in a session’s Outputs list
- Fixed a rare issue where a single conversation could get stuck and fail to respond on every following message
- Fixed a rare case where a newly generated HTML file could show up empty right after finishing
- Chat no longer suggests you’ll get a notification when a background video or audio render finishes — it now points you back to chat or Files, with a status message while the render continues
- Fixed a gap that let long-running video or audio renders start without the paid-plan check applying
- Fixed “list my agent apps” in chat occasionally showing agent apps from other organizations you belong to
- Fixed chat occasionally failing to catch up on a live response after reconnecting or returning to an idle tab
- Fixed a rare case where a long-running agent command could fail partway through due to a brief sandbox connectivity blip
July 24, 2026
Bug fixes
- Fixed a rare iOS issue where the app could flicker between the login screen and the signed-in view right after signing in with a QR code or social login
- Fixed chat occasionally showing a duplicate copy of an image after the agent edited a previously generated image
- Fixed connector actions occasionally showing a timeout error in chat even though the action had actually completed successfully
July 23, 2026
Simplified model tiers for free-plan users
Free-plan users now pick from three simplified tiers — Lite, Standard, and Advanced — instead of choosing a specific model. Auto-select lets CREAO pick the best available model for your tier automatically. Upgrading to a paid plan unlocks the Advanced tier and lets you hand-pick a specific model instead. Compare models.Nifty connector
Connect Nifty to create and manage projects, tasks, and team messages directly from chat and agent apps.A more natural way to describe new agents
Creating a new agent now feels like chatting: attach reference files or images, or use Talk it through to describe your idea by voice, instead of typing everything into a single text box.Long-running renders now require a paid plan
Audio and video renders that continue in the background for extended periods now require an active paid plan. If you hit this limit on the Free plan — or run out of free video generations or credits — chat shows a clear card explaining what happened, with a direct link to upgrade. Quick renders, job status, and downloads are unaffected.Developer API: agent memory and files
The Developer API can now manage a personal agent’s long-term memory and file space:- Read, overwrite, or clear agent memory at
/v1/agents/{agent_id}/memory - List, download, or delete files in the agent’s skill folder at
/v1/agents/{agent_id}/files
UI changes
- The iOS app now uses an edge-to-edge layout, with the status bar blending into your light or dark theme instead of showing as a solid bar
- QR code scanning for connecting devices is more reliable across more phones
- File previews and agent settings now open as swipe-to-dismiss sheets from the bottom of the screen on mobile, instead of desktop-style dialogs
- Paid users can switch between Auto-select and Choose a model using two tabs in the model picker, instead of a nested submenu
Bug fixes
- Fixed the model picker occasionally marking the wrong model as selected after switching tabs
- Fixed the pricing page header being covered by the status bar on iOS
- Fixed downloading a PDF from the mobile app’s document viewer not working
- Fixed chat sometimes showing a duplicate, non-functional form after a question, secret, or agent-run request needed to retry
- Fixed some chat requests on faster models failing repeatedly when the request needed to run one of your saved agents
- Fixed newly created agents showing Run/Schedule buttons before they were actually ready to use
July 22, 2026
See and understand images with any chat model
Chat models that don’t have built-in vision — GLM 5.2, MiniMax M3, and Kimi K3 — can now understand images you share in a conversation. When you send a photo or screenshot, the agent automatically analyzes it and works the description into its response, so you don’t have to switch models to work with images.UI changes
- The sidebar is denser and more polished, with tighter row spacing, refreshed section headers, and a smaller wordmark
- Opening Agent Brain from the sidebar now shows a compact flyout menu instead of an accordion that pushed your thread list down
- Fixed the profile avatar shifting slightly when collapsing or expanding the sidebar
- Fixed the new-chat ”+” badge appearing as a hard-to-read dark shape in dark mode
Bug fixes
- Fixed numbers like ”~$50” in chat and reports incorrectly rendering with a strikethrough
- Fixed an issue where eBay accounts with listings created in an older eBay listing format wouldn’t show up in your connected eBay data — CREAO now sees all of your active eBay listings, including watch counts and how long each has been live
- Fixed the Google Analytics connector always reporting on your default property instead of the one you asked about, which broke multi-property reports
- Fixed a couple of issues that could cause a long video render to fail to start or stall partway through
- Fixed a rare case where a completed generated file could fail to appear in chat even though it had finished processing
- The Team Request Router agent in Slack now answers directly when a message doesn’t clearly match a specialist agent, instead of replying that it couldn’t route the request
July 21, 2026
UI changes
- The Season 2 trading challenge enrollment flow now includes a link to open your cloned agent’s detail page directly from the verification step
Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue where a long answer option in a chat question could overflow the page instead of wrapping to fit
July 20, 2026
Season 2 trading challenge
Season 2 of the community trading challenge is live — trade real onchain signals with an event-driven agent on Robinhood Chain, starting from a fixed 0.1 ETH stake. Enroll from the community page, then track your rank, trade history, and the live leaderboard from a personal dashboard.Bug fixes
- Fixed several mobile app issues: broken file and image downloads, the message composer not scrolling into view when focused, and a flickering sidebar animation on iOS
- “Add to Slack” is now blocked in the mobile app with a message directing you to connect from the desktop site, since that connection can’t be completed from within the app
- Fixed an issue where the iOS app could leave the checkout screen open after a purchase completed, requiring you to close it manually
July 19, 2026
UI changes
- Image, voice, and video settings now open in a dialog directly from chat instead of navigating you away to a separate page — changes apply to your very next message in the same conversation
- Long agent titles on the Agents page no longer collide with hover actions, and show the full title in a tooltip when truncated; filters are now more consistent across desktop, tablet, and mobile
July 18, 2026
UI changes
- On phones and tablets, agent cards now show a labeled Run / Schedule / Share action bar at the bottom of the card instead of requiring a hover to reveal actions
Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue on the mobile app where a failed photo save or file download could appear to succeed silently instead of showing an error
July 17, 2026
Team collaboration
- Any member of your organization can now schedule a shared team agent to run on a recurring basis — previously only the agent’s creator or the organization owner could. A schedule you create is owned by and billed to you, and its runs stay private to you. You can edit, pause, or delete only the schedules you created; all members can still view the full schedule list read-only.
- On the Agents page, an agent’s status badges (running, error, last run, and pending approvals) now reflect only your own runs, matching the per-member activity feed — so you no longer see an error badge for a teammate’s run you can’t open.
Durable video renders
Multi-segment video renders started in chat now recover automatically if your session is interrupted, picking up from the last saved segment instead of starting over. You can watch progress segment by segment, and if a render still can’t finish, your original inputs are preserved so you can retry with one click.Bug fixes
- Fixed a “Connection lost” error that could appear when opening an activity item that linked to a teammate’s private run on a shared agent
- Fixed an issue where reconnecting the CREAO Slack app to a workspace already connected by a different teammate could silently take over that connection with no warning — a confirmation dialog now explains what will be replaced before continuing
- Fixed an issue where a file the agent generated could appear stuck “uploading” in chat even after it had finished saving
- Fixed an issue where the suggested follow-up prompts after an agent’s response could occasionally fail to appear
- Text-to-speech failures (for example, running low on credits) now show a clear message instead of a generic error
July 16, 2026
Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue where editing an image in place (keeping the same filename) could keep showing the previous version of that image in chat
- Fixed an issue where animating a single image into a video could fail entirely on our newest video model
July 15, 2026
Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue where a file preview could briefly keep showing the old version right after you edited that file
- Fixed an issue where a file changed indirectly by the agent (for example, through a script it ran) could be missing from that workspace’s file list and version history
July 14, 2026
UI changes
- Failed attachment uploads in chat now show a “Retry upload” button on the attachment chip, so you can retry in place instead of removing the attachment and re-selecting the file
Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue where multiple chat attachments sharing the same filename could silently overwrite each other before reaching the agent — only the last one would survive
- Fixed an issue where the credit activity statement showed one line per LLM call within an agent run — usage from a single run is now combined into one line
- Fixed an issue where upgrading to a paid plan or managing billing from the iOS app could fail to open correctly — checkout and billing management now open in a secure in-app browser and return you to the app when finished
July 13, 2026
UI changes
- The API trigger dialog on an agent’s detail page now shows two ways to authenticate a new key: the recommended
Authorization: Bearerheader example, and a?creao-api-key=query-param example for platforms that can’t set custom headers, with a note on the security trade-off. Existing keys can be expanded to view the same examples. - Recent Runs in the Developer Console now shows the HTTP method and route that created each run, making it easier to spot API activity at a glance.
Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue where scrolling to load more apps on mobile or in a larger grid view could silently stop loading after the initial batch appeared
July 12, 2026
Developer API model selection
Developer API run-creating endpoints now accept an optionalmodel field, and the new GET /v1/models endpoint lists supported models with per-account availability. Every run object now echoes the resolved model, and omitted-model runs now default to Claude Sonnet 5.
Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue where a teammate’s run on an agent you own could show up in your Feed and update ticker
- Fixed an issue where opening a conversation that’s no longer available could get stuck on a “Connection lost” banner instead of returning you to a new chat
July 11, 2026
Choose a model for scheduled runs
Scheduled runs now let you pick which AI model handles each execution, the same way you can in chat. Set it when you create or edit a schedule — the same plan-based model access rules apply, and you’ll be prompted to pick a replacement if a previously selected model becomes unavailable.Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue where typing quickly into a schedule’s time field could scramble the digits into the wrong segment
- Fixed an issue where a workflow step or message cost could occasionally display as a raw dollar amount instead of credits
July 10, 2026
Choose a default video generation model
The Video page’s Settings tab is no longer a placeholder — you can now browse available video generation models, compare pricing and capabilities like audio support, clip length, and aspect ratios, and choose your default model for video requests in chat.Microsoft OneDrive connector
You can now connect Microsoft OneDrive — search, browse folders, upload files, and create shareable links directly from chat.Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue where starting an agent with optional inputs sometimes skipped the run form — agents with any configured inputs now consistently open the form first
- Fixed an issue where required fields could be cut off in an agent’s run form when there were several of them
July 9, 2026
Scheduled run minimums
Scheduled runs now require at least a 5-minute gap between executions — you’ll see a validation message if you try to set an interval or cron expression that fires more often. Scheduled runs now also carry a small minimum charge of 0.1 credits, even when the run itself uses less; skipped, deferred, and cancelled runs remain free.Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue where the follow-up suggestion chips below a response could fail to appear for certain replies
July 8, 2026
Share feedback when deleting your account
The account deletion flow now lets you pick a reason you’re leaving (too expensive, missing features, privacy concerns, or other) and add optional details, plus a direct link to support in case there’s a problem we can fix instead. The “Delete account” section on the settings page also has a calmer, less alarming look.Credit activity in your billing dashboard
Your billing page now includes a Credit Activity section with a clear, plain-language history of how your credit balance has changed — agent runs, credit pack purchases, subscription credits, rewards, refunds, and adjustments.Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue where the “Share with team” and publish/unpublish controls on an agent could appear even while you were browsing outside of a team context
- Fixed an issue where an agent run could get stuck and never finish or fail; you’ll now see a clear error message so you can retry instead of waiting indefinitely
- Fixed an issue where creating an agent through the Developer API could produce an incompletely set up agent
July 7, 2026
Bug fixes
- Fixed a bug where editing a workflow agent through “Edit in chat” appeared to save your change, but the update was silently lost
- Light mode now uses a neutral color palette instead of a slightly pink tint, and the chat home page’s greeting and input box are consistently centered
- Chat now shows a clearer message when a connected tool or workspace command stops responding, instead of a generic AI error
July 6, 2026
Run agents by asking in chat
Workflow agents — the reusable, multi-step agents you save from a dynamic workflow — can now be run by simply describing what you want in a chat message, instead of opening the agent’s Run form first. Mention what you’re trying to do, and the agent recognizes which saved workflow agent fits, gathers what it needs, and streams progress and the final result right into your conversation.Private runs on shared team agents
When a team agent is shared within your organization, each member’s own runs, generated outputs, and pending approvals now stay private to that member — including the agent’s creator — instead of being visible to the whole team. Only the agent’s creator or the organization owner can view and manage its schedules; other members can still run it on demand.Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue where outgoing Slack messages sent by your agent showed a third-party “Sent via Pipedream Connect” footer instead of no footer at all
July 5, 2026
Bug fixes
- Fixed a bug where the cost shown for a message in the chat’s ··· menu could be higher than what was actually deducted from your credits
- Fixed an issue where connecting Slack showed generic third-party branding instead of CREAO’s on the connection screen
July 4, 2026
Generate slide decks with /slide
Type/slide in chat and describe what you need — the agent asks a couple of quick questions (visual style, plus anything specific about your audience or content), researches the topic when it needs current facts, and builds a complete presentation. Choose from three visual styles — Visual Brief, Executive Narrative, and Data Report — each with its own layout and type treatment, and the deck can include tables, pull quotes, and side-by-side comparisons alongside standard bullet slides. The agent sizes the deck to fit your content instead of forcing a fixed slide count, and delivers it as both a PDF and an editable PPTX file.
Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue where the app could keep retrying requests after your session expired instead of prompting you to sign back in
- Fixed a bug where a chat that failed to start could get stuck showing a “Connection lost” banner, or leave you on an empty conversation after a refresh
July 3, 2026
Developer API agent management
Developer Platform Account API keys can now create personal agents, update them by replacing provided fields, or request natural-language edits through/v1/agents/:agent_id/edits, then run them immediately with async or realtime runs. This lets backend-first teams manage the personal-agent lifecycle without switching to the browser editor for every definition change.
Delete playbooks from the Memory page
You can now remove a playbook you no longer want the agent to use. Hover over a playbook card on the Playbooks tab and use the ··· menu to delete it, with a confirmation step before it’s gone.July 2, 2026
Developer Console
CREAO now has a dedicated Developer Console atdeveloper.creao.ai for building on top of your agents. Create Account API keys, browse the agents you already own, and call them from your own backend with /v1/runs for async execution, /v1/realtime/runs for streamed output, plus conversation reuse and webhook delivery for completed runs. This account-level path is available alongside agent-detail-page API Trigger keys in agent.creao.ai, which remain the app-scoped path for calling a single agent. Learn more.
X connector: media, Articles, and more reads
Your agent can now attach images or a video to posts on X, and draft and publish long-form Articles (both require X Premium on the connected account). New read capabilities include personalized trending topics, AI-summarized news search, home timeline, bookmark folders, quote-tweet lookups, and user search. If your X account was already connected, reconnect it to enable media posting.Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue where an Agent App’s most recently updated files could be missing after sharing or installing it
- Fixed a rare issue where a tool call, like image or video generation, could hang instead of failing quickly
July 1, 2026
Claude Sonnet 5 is now the default model
Claude Sonnet 5 is out of early access and available to everyone, including free accounts — no more lock icon or upgrade prompt. It’s now the default model for new chats, bringing fast, capable reasoning and coding with a 1M-token context window. Claude Sonnet 4.6 remains available and has moved into the Older versions section of the model picker, alongside the earlier Opus releases.Scheduled runs join your recents when you reply
Threads created by scheduled agent runs stay hidden from the recent-threads sidebar — until you follow up in one. Send a message in a scheduled run’s thread and it immediately joins your recent conversations, right at the top of the list. See Scheduled runs for details.UI changes
- Homepage agent cards have refreshed hover states, tab styling, and CTA copy.
- Organization seat purchase cards have subtler hover/selected states and a smoother monthly/yearly price switch.
- Mobile now shows a notice when a connector can’t be added from a mobile browser, and several other small mobile layout issues were fixed.
Bug fixes
- Dashboards pinned to Views now render with the same styling as they do in chat — previously they looked washed out with clipped cards.
June 30, 2026
UI changes
- The Pioneer Leaderboard now shows a New paid users column and tooltip explanations for all three metrics — Sent messages, Created agents, and New paid users — so you always know exactly what each number represents.
Bug fixes
- The home page greeting, composer, and featured carousels are back to their centered layout — a recent design update had accidentally left-aligned the hero and clipped the carousel scroll area.
- Gmail search now returns emails that actually match your date range and query. Previously, asking for “all my emails from January” would silently return only the newest 50 regardless of your filters.
June 27, 2026
Smarter model picker
The model selector now surfaces three signals alongside every model name: a plain-language “best for” description, a Smarts rating, and a cost tier indicator. Click the ⓘ icon on any row to expand an inline panel with a fuller description and recommendation — so picking the right model for any task takes seconds, not guesswork.June 26, 2026
Dashboard widget design
Dashboard widgets now use one CREAO design system across chat, agent sessions, saved run views, and the Widgets page previews. The old color and style picker has been removed so generated dashboards keep a consistent product look.June 25, 2026
Account deletion
You can now request account deletion from the Profile tab in Account Settings. A danger zone section explains what will be removed and requires you to typeDELETE to confirm. If you have an active subscription, a dialog explains that deleting your account does not cancel it and prompts you to manage your subscription first. After submitting, a banner at the top of the app shows your request is pending — you can cancel the deletion at any time during the processing window.
Pioneer leaderboard
Pioneer program members now have a Pioneer Leaderboard tab on the Rewards page, ranking all active pioneers by key metrics. Use the month filter to track how standings shift over time.Bug fixes
- The For you tab in the home carousel now scrolls smoothly when you drag any card body — previously only the narrow gaps between cards were draggable.
- CREAO now silently recovers when a network interruption breaks a streaming response mid-way, instead of surfacing a connection error. A brief notice appears while reconnecting, and the response continues from where it left off.
June 24, 2026
Share from agent cards
You can now share any agent directly from its card on the Agents page — no need to open the detail page first. The Share icon appears in the card header alongside the overflow menu.UI changes
- Follow-up suggestion chips now ease in with a staggered animation after each response finishes, instead of appearing all at once.
Bug fixes
- The “Run agent” dialog for agents with several input fields now scrolls inside the viewport instead of extending off-screen.
June 23, 2026
Fugu Ultra now available
Fugu Ultra from Sakana AI is now available in the model selector on paid plans. It is a multi-agent reasoning model with a 1M-token context window, built for hard, long-horizon work. The model thinks deeply before responding and delivers output in larger batches rather than token-by-token — the chat header shows a notice when Fugu Ultra is active. Compare models.Seedance 2.0 Mini for video generation
Seedance 2.0 Mini is now available for video generation — a lighter Seedance 2.0 model accessible to all users. It supports multimodal references (image, video, and audio inputs) and generates 4–15-second clips in all aspect ratios at a lower credit cost than the standard Seedance 2.0 models.Bug fixes
- When a task runs out of storage space mid-generation, you now see a clear “storage full” message with a Start fresh chat button rather than a generic error.
June 22, 2026
UI changes
- Run and schedule actions in chat, the agent install page, and referral copy now consistently use “agent” language (e.g., “Run the … agent,” “Install Agent”).
June 21, 2026
Bug fixes
- Saving a secret with a platform-reserved name (such as
GEMINI_API_KEYorOPENAI_API_KEY) now shows a clear inline error on the name field instead of a misleading “Invalid secret value” message. Errors for invalid format and the per-account secret limit are also surfaced inline with distinct messages. In-chat secret capture validates the name immediately, so a reserved name is flagged before you submit.
June 20, 2026
Voice settings in the composer
When you select Create voice from the + menu in chat, a settings chip now appears — click it to choose a voice (each shown with a gradient swatch and tone description) and set the playback speed (Slow, Normal, or Fast). Your selection applies to the current message as an override; the voice and style you’ve saved on the Voice page flow through automatically for everything else. A link in the settings popover takes you to the Voice page for the full roster and style customization. The menu item has also been relabeled from “Create audio” to “Create voice” to match the rest of the platform.UI changes
- The onboarding checklist and Learning Center link have been removed from the sidebar and profile menu. Demo template cards have also been removed from the chat empty state.
June 19, 2026
Live sub-agent activity in workflows
When you run a/workflow command, you can now click any task in the plan to see exactly what its sub-agent is doing — thinking blocks, tool calls, and generated output stream in real time in a side panel, using the same rendering as the main chat. No more wondering what’s happening behind the scenes during a multi-step run.

June 10, 2026
Video editing
The agent can now edit an existing video instead of regenerating it from scratch. Ask for a change in plain language — “make the dog wear a party hat in this video” — and the agent edits the footage while keeping the original scene. Click Edit on any video in chat to get started, or upload your own video (.mp4, .webm, .mov) and describe the change. Mechanical edits work too: trim, cut, combine clips, add background music, burn in captions, or create a vertical version for social.
Agent app sharing
Share links for agent apps can now be pinned to a specific version, so a link always opens the exact build you shared — plus a cleaner sharing flow.June 9, 2026

Dynamic workflows
Break a big request into a multi-step plan the agent runs for you. Type/workflow run with a goal and the agent proposes a workflow — a set of connected tasks shown as a visual graph. Approve the plan and each step runs in turn with live progress, summaries, and results. You can reference your skills inline with @ while describing what you want.
June 3, 2026
UI changes

May 30, 2026
Adjustable thinking effort per model
The single Max Thinking toggle is now a per-model effort picker. Pick Low, Medium, High, or Max for each model, and your choice is remembered per model — so you can keep one model fast and another set to deep reasoning. Top models (Claude Opus 4.6/4.7/4.8 and GPT-5.5) offer a true Max tier, while Sonnet and Haiku expose Low/Medium/High. Learn more.May 29, 2026
Resume exactly where you left off after an interruption
If you stop the agent mid-response and then ask it to continue, it now remembers what it was working on and picks up from that exact point — instead of forgetting the interrupted turn and starting over.Smoother “out of credits” handling
Running out of credits mid-task no longer cuts the agent off abruptly. It now finishes its current step cleanly before pausing, so your latest work is complete and saved rather than left half-finished. Add credits and continue right where you left off.Steer the agent mid-task
You can now redirect the agent while it is still working — type an instruction and choose Steer now instead of waiting for the current response to finish. Your message appears right away, the agent completes the step it is on, then adapts its course within the same task. Any message you have already queued can be turned into a steer too.UI changes
- Queued messages now have Steer, Edit message, Turn off queueing, and Delete actions
- A steered message shows a “Steering — applies after the current step” hint until the agent picks it up
May 28, 2026

Every agent detail page now shows an API Trigger section in the sidebar with your app ID (click to copy) and a direct link to the documentation. Learn more.Smoother artifact panel on mobile
The artifact preview panel on mobile now slides in as a smooth bottom sheet instead of a full-page redirect, keeping the chat context visible while you interact with artifacts.Faster sandbox reconnects
Returning to an existing conversation now reconnects to your sandbox faster — the agent upgrades its code in-place instead of starting a fresh environment, preserving your installed packages and workspace files.Runs survive deploys
Agent runs in progress are no longer interrupted when we ship a new version. The platform automatically resumes orphaned runs on the updated infrastructure so you never lose work mid-execution.Smarter chat error recovery
