Changelog

What we've shipped, in the order we shipped it. Kahubi improves continuously — this is the user-facing summary.

  1. Generation that keeps going, and a smarter editor

    • Long AI writes (systematic reviews, grants, reports and more) now run in the background: leave the page, watch the live word count if you stay, and get a notification when the draft is ready. Working flows and chats show a pulsing dot in the sidebar that turns blue when done.
    • Systematic review PDF fetching shows per-paper progress the moment each paper resolves, and library papers update the instant a PDF lands, with no refresh needed.
    • Small draft edits now rewrite just the section you asked about instead of the whole document, the AI knows which page everything is on, switching to the PDF view compiles automatically, and you can select text in the compiled PDF to edit it.
    • The guided tour now offers one-minute tutorial videos along the way.
  2. Discuss: channels and direct messages

    • The Discussion tab is now Discuss: the project-wide Everyone channel (your existing discussion history, unchanged), extra project channels for a topic, and direct messages with teammates.
    • Members moved into Discuss: one Members button shows everyone with roles and presence, and the owner manages access from the same place.
    • New messages arrive live, unread conversations show a dot, and inbox items deep-link straight to the right channel or DM.
  3. Collaboration inside projects

    • Share any project with teammates as viewer, commenter or editor, straight from the project overview; member avatars show on project rows.
    • A team channel per project (on the overview and as a right-panel tab), with threads, @-mentions and attachable papers, drafts, files and chats.
    • @-mention teammates in the AI chat: they get a deep link to the message, the assistant never sees the tag. Comment threads on any message, and on papers in the reader (matched by DOI across the team).
    • The bell is now an inbox with Mentions, Threads and System tabs, live updates, and an email digest for anything you missed (opt out in Settings).
  4. New research flows and full-text fetching

    • Research answers and journal submission flows — go from a question to a grounded answer, and from a finished manuscript to a submission-ready package.
    • Delphi expert finder, survey engine, and scale validation (CVI) for questionnaire-based studies.
    • Ethics application and experiment (CONSORT) flows for study planning and reporting.
    • PDF resolver chain: Kahubi now tries multiple open-access sources to find the full text of a paper automatically.
  5. Per-method flow cards, themes, and library uploads

    • The landing page now shows each research method as its own card, so you can jump straight into the flow you need.
    • Choose a workspace theme and connect your calendar from Settings.
    • Upload more of your own files to the library, plus smoother chat interactions.
  6. Model controls, review types, and better monitoring

    • Pick a model and thinking level per purpose (chat, flows, agent) in Settings.
    • Systematic, scoping, and meta-analysis review types in the systematic review flow.
    • Writing style analysis: analyze your own text or another author’s, right from the workspace.
    • Monitors can follow specific authors and run on a per-monitor frequency.
  7. Reading and navigation upgrades

    • Readable PDFs directly in chat, with rich figure, table, and bibliography previews.
    • Restructured flows sidebar and web search from the library.
    • Agent/Ask toggle polish and faster tooltips throughout.
  8. Teams, templates, and free tools

    • Teams: share projects with collaborators, with viewer and editor roles.
    • A gallery of expert research templates you can run free and keep as editable drafts.
    • Five new research flows, free tools, and a faster no-thinking chat path for quick questions.
  9. Unified library and notes with graph view

    • One library for papers, files, and notes — organized with tabs.
    • Notes v2 with a graph view of how your ideas connect.
    • Chat-driven research flows: start an analysis from a conversation.
  10. Kahubi launch

    • The AI workspace for research goes live: read, write, and analyze in one place, with your library as context.
