Product Updates
OCT Week 1 product updates
A cleaner Stacks editor, new client contact and To Do tabs, faster mobile Collab sending, and a more flexible Mindmaps workspace.
Stacks: a cleaner document editor
- The note title leads the document. Formatting controls appear when you highlight text and disappear when the selection is cleared.
- Every floating toolbar control has a readable tooltip. Common actions include keyboard shortcuts, and selected controls stay visible in light and dark mode.
- Use / to find headings, lists, tables, images, and other blocks. Multiword searches such as /insert image find the matching command.
- Cmd/Ctrl+K opens link editing, Cmd/Ctrl+S saves, and Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+V pastes plain text. Shortcut help and save feedback sit below the document.
- Paste copied spreadsheet cells into an editable table and move between cells with Tab or Shift+Tab. Document tables do not calculate spreadsheet formulas.
- Image uploads show progress and a Retry action on failure. Images retain their proportions and support captions, resizing, full-size preview, and removal. Video and file uploads use the existing Pro access rules.
- Links open in a new tab, and HTML or Markdown export preserves supported formatting and media links. The Go reader displays supported tables and media.
Clients: Other Contacts and To Do
- Other Contacts sits after Overview. Add people at the same company with their name, role, email, phone, and notes; search or sort the table, copy contact details, and edit a row.
- Removed contacts can be recovered with Undo or Removed → Restore. Adding a contact does not send an invitation or grant workspace access. Other Contacts is available on all plans.
- Pro accounts have a To Do tab between Tasks and Notebook. It brings Mini List's inline editing, keyboard capture, nested items, highlighting, drag reordering, completion sound, focus view, and trash into each client profile.
- Client To Do uses the standard C5 surface without paper styling. Its items are separate from your personal Mini List and the client's linked Tasks list.
Collab: clearer conversations and mobile sending
- Contacts has a compact directory. Direct-message rows show names; the conversation header shows the email and a copy action.
- Thread replies offer message actions, and only a message's sender can delete it. Duplicate-send protection and attachment recovery help keep drafts and replies consistent.
- In Go, Send immediately displays your message and scrolls it into view. You can start the next message while the previous one is being confirmed.
- Delivery feedback appears on the message, including sending, uploading, and a visible failure. Text retries reuse the same send so a lost response does not create another copy.
- The calling workspace includes a floating meeting window, device controls, backgrounds, screen sharing, reactions, and sounds. Live calls require the workspace's calling service to be configured and browser camera/microphone permission; a setup error means that service is not connected yet.
Mindmaps, Tasks, and module documentation
- Mindmaps supports mouse-wheel zoom, direct topic editing, keyboard navigation and creation, branch operations, autosave feedback, and exports.
- The gallery offers 41 templates across 10 categories, with distinct structures, palettes, and bubble shapes. Start with C5 defaults or customize the map's layout, colors, and shape.
- Task comment images use the corrected upload flow. Hover over the recurrence indicator near the due date to read the interval and selected weekdays.
- The owner-only Ops workspace has Module Structures articles describing the modules and their connections, including Collab's spaces, channels, messages, and calling paths.
Scheduled knowledge and Bot reviews
- Xel's October 1 verified-learning refresh updates its sourced reference notes across marketing, technical SEO, coding, and applied AI. Each note keeps its evidence dates and uncertainty; source review is not a promise of accuracy or a measured business outcome.
- The latest scheduled Studio Bot review checks role boundaries, permitted workspace context, and conversation closure using synthetic conversations. It is an internal review, not a claim that live model answer quality has been verified.
