2.1.0

Released January 31, 2026.

The chat input has been redesigned, and the model selector now carries a switch for turning Brie off and on. Real-time chats are quicker, and you can stop an answer partway through or send a failed message again. Plus a subscription choice when you create a Cloud, pinned Clouds, a page that opens links in the mobile app, clearer messages when something goes wrong, a welcome email for new accounts, and more of Emerge.ai translated.

Chat input redesign

• Upload and web search sit right in the input: The chat input has been redesigned, with the upload button on the right, and web search available on a brand-new chat
• See your model on your phone: The chat input shows which model is selected on a phone
• Turn Brie off without leaving the chat: Switch Brie on or off from the model selector, which reads "AI Disabled" while it's off
• Picking a model is easier: On a phone the model list opens as a full dialog instead of a dropdown, it scrolls straight to the model you're on, and on desktop the list is wider and scrolls

Real-time chat improvements

• Improved real-time messaging: Real-time messaging has been upgraded for better performance
• Stop an answer partway through: You can stop a reply while it's still being written instead of waiting for it to finish
• Send a failed message again: A message that doesn't go through in a real-time chat can be retried
• Status keeps up in shared chats: In a chat you're working in with other people, status updates show correctly

Cloud creation & management

• Choose which subscription a new Cloud belongs to: Pick the subscription to attach a Cloud to as you create it
• A typed invitation isn't quietly lost: Type an email address on the invite step without adding it and you get a warning
• Back out of creating a Cloud: A close button takes you back out of the Cloud creation steps
• You're told why you can't create a Cloud: An invalid subscription says "Payment Required", and a plan that doesn't cover creating Clouds says "Upgrade Required"
• Keep the Clouds you use most in one place: Hover over a Cloud in the list and use the star to pin or unpin it — pinned Clouds get their own "Pinned" section

Chat and project limits

• Retry pauses when you reach your daily limit: On the Free plan, retry and edit-and-rerun are turned off once you reach the daily limit
• "Everyone" isn't offered in a personal Cloud: The "Everyone" option on a project is turned off in a personal Cloud

Open a link in the app (New Feature)

• A link can take you straight into the app: On a phone, links now land on a page that opens the Emerge.ai app for you
• If the app doesn't open, use the web: When the app can't launch, an "Open Emerge.ai Web" button takes you there instead
• You land where the link points: The page can forward you to a specific page inside the app

Subscription & billing improvements

• Change your mind about a downgrade: Undo a scheduled downgrade from billing or from the pricing table
• See the numbers before you switch: The preview shows your previous plan amount, the credit, the new plan amount, the prorated amount, and what's due today
• Product names read in your language: Product names are translated for the language you're using
• You can see when something's working: Buttons through the subscription steps show they're working after you click them
• Leave the upgrade page: An X closes the upgrade page

Sidebar & navigation

• One list instead of two tabs: Teams and Everyone are now a single sidebar list that opens on "All"
• Notifications you can read on a phone: On a phone, notifications open as a full dialog instead of a dropdown

Support page updates

• See what you haven't read: Unread conversations stand out with a colored icon and background
• Know who spoke last: A conversation's latest message is marked "You:" or "Support:"
• Opening a conversation clears it: Clicking an unread conversation marks it as read

Clearer errors

• Errors are worded consistently: Error messages read the same way wherever you meet them
• A clear message when a page can't load: If your data can't be loaded when a page opens, you get a message saying so and a button to reload
• Voice recording says what went wrong: A denied microphone permission, a microphone that can't be found, and no audio detected each get their own message, in your language

Signing in & staying signed in

• You stay signed in as you move around: Your session holds as you move between pages, and refreshes more reliably
• Verifying your email moves you along: Confirming your email address forwards you onward
• You aren't signed out when Emerge.ai is unreachable: Emerge.ai no longer logs you out automatically when it can't be reached
• Sign-in says what went wrong: Wrong credentials get a clearer message, and a successful sign-in reloads the page
• Show or hide your password: Password fields have a toggle for showing what you've typed

Translations

• More of Emerge.ai in your language: Hundreds more translations were added across English, Spanish, and Japanese
• These parts are now translated too: The page-load error message, the cancel-downgrade dialog, the Cloud creation steps, sign-in errors, voice recording errors, and the pricing table

On your phone

• No flash of the wrong layout: Pages open in their phone layout straight away
• The members page fits a phone: The members page uses stacked layouts on a small screen
• The page fits your phone's screen: The main layout sits better inside a phone browser

Welcome email (New Feature)

• You get a welcome email when you sign up: New accounts get a welcome email from Emerge.ai when they're created

Bug fixes

• Starting a new chat works: Problems with creating a new chat are fixed
• Dialogs close when you close them: A dialog that wouldn't close now does
• Page titles match where you are: Page titles are consistent across the app
