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 /workflow sometimes 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. 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 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
See Agent memory and Agent 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: Bearer header 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 optional model 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 at developer.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 type DELETE 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_KEY or OPENAI_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 18, 2026

UI changes

  • The @ mention menu now includes direct links to the Skills and Connectors pages when you’re browsing that category — jump straight to manage your capabilities without leaving the chat.

Bug fixes

  • Image previews now remain visible throughout the entire generation process and no longer disappear mid-stream.
  • Files from shared agent app sessions are now consistently accessible to everyone who has the link.

June 17, 2026

GLM 5.2 now available

GLM 5.2 from Z.ai is now available in the model selector. It’s a reasoning model with a 1M-token context window, strong coding performance, and very low credit cost — a great option for iterative coding sessions where you send many messages. Compare models.

Memory playbooks

A new Playbooks tab on the Memory page surfaces the structured reasoning guides the agent has built from your past conversations — recurring task patterns that shape how it approaches similar work in the future. Browse, filter by status, and review what the agent has learned about your workflows.

Bug fixes

  • Playbook titles now accurately reflect the content they cover instead of showing a generic name.
  • The image settings chip in the composer is now a single, stable control that no longer flickers or duplicates.

June 16, 2026

Image generation settings in chat

You can now adjust image generation settings directly in the chat composer. When you select Create image from the + menu, a settings chip appears — click it to choose the model (Gemini or GPT Image 2), aspect ratio (square, portrait, landscape, or auto), and quality. GPT Image 2 also exposes output format (PNG, JPEG, or WebP). Your selections persist across the session.

UI changes

  • @ mention suggestions are now grouped by category — Skills and Connectors appear in distinct sections for faster scanning.
  • The Agent Brain section in the sidebar rail is now collapsed by default for a cleaner navigation view.

June 14, 2026

Webflow connector

You can now connect your Webflow account to CREAO. The agent can manage CMS collections, create and update content items, browse your sites, and publish changes — all from chat. Connect from the Connectors tab on the Skills page.

June 13, 2026

New agent avatars

Agent avatars across the platform have been refreshed with a new filament-ribbon design, giving each agent a more distinct visual identity and making it easier to tell them apart at a glance.

Capability showcase on the chat empty state

The chat empty state now shows a visual showcase of what CREAO can do — agents, video generation, workflows, image creation, and more — so you can discover and launch capabilities directly from the start screen. The @ mention popover also surfaces a guide card with scrollable capability highlights when you open it.

Bug fixes

  • Follow-up suggestion chips are now reliably grounded and accurate, and OAuth reconnection from the suggestion row works correctly again.

June 12, 2026

Bug fixes

  • Long messages are no longer incorrectly truncated at i18n phrase endings, numeric or URL endings, or unclosed code fences.

June 11, 2026

Streamlined composer

All composer actions — attach files, add skills, connect apps, voice — now live in a single + menu in the chat bar, keeping the input clean. Reference a skill or anything else by typing @; the old /skill command has been retired in favor of @ mentions.

Video queue improvements

  • Videos now generate through an async queue — see your place in line right in the chat
  • Each finished video shows the credits it used
  • Paid plans get priority in the video queue
  • Clearer messaging when a video can’t be generated (content policy or insufficient credits)

UI changes

  • Pricing page opens full-screen, and plan button labels no longer clip
  • Cleaner chat message spacing, centered empty state, and a polished connectors modal
  • Long replies ending in an emoji are no longer cut off mid-message
  • Duplicate entries from in-progress uploads no longer show in workspace and thread file lists

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

Claude Fable 5 now available

Claude Fable 5 — Anthropic’s latest flagship model — is now available for eligible paid users. It is built for our deepest reasoning and long-horizon agent work. Compare models.

June 4, 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

  • The assistant avatar now animates while the agent responds — the CREAO mark folds into a Möbius (∞) ribbon and back, then settles when the response finishes (honors reduced-motion settings)
  • Refined chat spacing and alignment across desktop and mobile so typing, streaming, and completed messages stay visually consistent

June 2, 2026

UI changes

  • Polished chat layout so assistant messages, tool rows, typing indicators, and suggested next steps share consistent spacing

May 31, 2026

UI changes

  • Conversations started by a schedule or API trigger now show the model they actually ran on — in the chat header and per-message labels — instead of defaulting to Sonnet

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

Claude Opus 4.8 now available

Claude Opus 4.8 is now selectable in the model dropdown. It builds on Opus 4.7 with improved judgement and reliability, plus frontier reasoning and coding with a 1M-token context window. Available on paid plans with Opus access. Compare models.

Bug fixes

  • Switching from a yearly plan to a monthly plan mid-cycle is now blocked to avoid confusing proration and billing issues; you can still change plans at renewal

May 26, 2026

API Trigger now available to all users

Run your agent apps programmatically — create an API key, trigger runs, poll for results, and integrate agent output into your own scripts, CI/CD pipelines, or applications. No browser required. 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

When the underlying AI model returns a transient error, chat now shows a structured error message with Retry, Start fresh, or Upgrade actions instead of a generic failure. Localized across all supported languages.

UI changes

  • “Publish publicly” renamed to “Export as ZIP” in the agent overflow menu for clarity
  • Skills and Integrations pages now use the standard page width instead of full-width layout

  • Zero-byte image uploads are now rejected before being sent to the AI model, preventing silent failures
  • Previously broken threads with empty image attachments can now load and continue normally

May 23, 2026

Faster Agents page

The Agents page now loads noticeably faster — fetching 30+ agents that used to take around 8 seconds now completes in under a second.

Instant file upload reactivity

Files uploaded to the workspace now appear in the file list immediately, without needing a page refresh.

May 22, 2026

UI changes

Chips scroll naturally with the conversation, no longer block the input, and auto-hide when you send your next message. The assistant toolbar (Copy, thumbs up/down) was also polished with larger hit targets and tactile press feedback.

UI changes

  • Contextual icons now appear on chat suggestion chips based on the topic (travel, code, email, etc.) instead of a generic message icon

Cards refresh every 30 seconds and on tab focus. A persistent Run button on every card lets you start a session directly — with a modal for required inputs — without opening the detail page first.

S1 Trading Challenge

A new community trading challenge is live — participate from the community page with dedicated enrollment, leaderboard, and session tracking.

May 11, 2026

May 8, 2026

Reconnect expired integrations inline

When an integration token expires mid-conversation, a Reconnect button now appears directly in chat. Click it to re-authorize without leaving the conversation — the agent automatically retries after you reconnect.

Skipped schedule alerts and auto-pause

Scheduled runs that are skipped due to insufficient credits now show a “Skipped” badge and count toward auto-pause thresholds. When a schedule is auto-paused, you receive an email explaining why and how to resume. Skipped runs auto-pause faster (2 consecutive skips) than general failures.

Refresh button on mobile

A refresh button now appears in the chat header on mobile, making it easy to reload the page when running CREAO as an installed app.

A new Widgets page under Agent Brain lets you browse all available dashboard components — KPI cards, charts, tables, progress bars, and layout containers — with live previews showing mock data. Each widget card shows its name, description, configurable props, and an interactive preview rendered with the same engine that powers dashboards in chat.

Dashboard widget catalog

The Widgets page renders previews with the same dashboard engine used in chat and agent sessions, so changes to the shared widget design system apply consistently across generated dashboards and the component catalog.

April 4, 2026

Dynamic dashboards in chat

The agent can now render interactive dashboards directly in the chat — KPI cards, area charts, bar charts, candlestick charts, tables, progress bars, and alert banners, all streaming progressively as the agent generates them. Ask for a stock analysis, data comparison, or metrics overview and get a visual dashboard instead of plain text.

Dashboard output format for agents

When creating an agent, you can now choose Dashboard as the output format (recommended by default). The agent generates a sample dashboard during creation, which becomes the layout template for future runs.

Files can be uploaded via drag-and-drop or attached automatically when the agent is first created. Each file is mounted into the sandbox at a predictable path so the agent can read it directly.

Account settings dialog

Billing, secrets, and profile settings are now consolidated into a single Account Settings dialog accessible from the sidebar. The separate billing and secrets pages have been removed.

The chat empty state now shows a live ticker of recent agent activity across the platform, giving you a quick view of what agents are being built and run.

Queued follow-up messages

You can now queue additional messages while the agent is still processing your previous request. Type and send follow-ups at any time — they appear in a queue panel and are processed automatically after each agent turn. You can also switch queued messages to manual mode, which promotes the next item into the input box for review before sending. Your browser can even be closed — queued messages are saved server-side and processed in order.

Redesigned billing page

The billing page has been completely rebuilt with a cleaner, more informative layout. A new overview section shows your plan, renewal date, amount, and payment method at a glance. Credit usage is now split into two cards — one for plan credits with a progress bar and renewal date, and one for usage packs with a quantity stepper, quick-select chips, and inline purchasing. A new invoices table shows your real billing history, and a daily usage chart visualizes credit consumption across the current billing cycle.

Improved agent app picker

The app picker in chat now supports searching by description (not just name), shows result counts, and scrolls smoothly through long lists. Finding the right agent app is faster and more intuitive.

Faster agent responses

Starting a new conversation and returning to an existing one are both faster now. New conversations benefit from a pre-warmed sandbox pool that eliminates startup delays, and returning to a previous thread reconnects to your existing environment almost instantly.

A new Try in chat option lets you jump straight into a conversation with a skill enabled and a starter prompt ready to go.

Long conversations now load older messages automatically as you scroll up, instead of being capped at a fixed number. You can scroll through your entire conversation history without any manual “load more” buttons.

Session history pagination

The Sessions tab on agent app detail pages now supports pagination, making it easy to browse through large numbers of past runs without performance issues.

Agent app visual refresh

The platform fetches the skill, validates it, and makes it available immediately. GitHub-sourced skills show their source URL and can be refreshed to pull the latest version.

Create and install skills from chat

The agent can now create and install custom skills right in the conversation. Describe a workflow you want to automate, and the agent scaffolds a skill for you. You can also paste a GitHub URL or upload a ZIP file in chat and ask the agent to install it.

March 9, 2026

Real-time stream replay
