Changelog

Changelog for new feature announcements, and other bug fixes reported by users.

  1. v1.13.1008.0302

    • [Feature] Whiteboard: Adds a whiteboard to every project: draw, add sticky notes, shapes, arrows, text and sections, then select a group and Make turns it into a screen or a flow. Make is priced like any other round.
    • [Feature] MCP: Brings your app's own design system in through your coding agent: its components, states, fonts and icons. New screens in that project are built from those parts.
    • [Feature] MCP: Adds Codex as a host on /connect, with its own install command and sign-in steps.
    • [Improvement] Canvas: Rebuilds padding, gap and resize handles on a selected element, and opens them to every member.
    • [Improvement] Design system: Shows the design system panel on every project, imported or generated, with the right screens, fonts and saved systems.
    • [Feature] Teams: Adds Gesso Teams to the pricing page, with a Book a demo form for companies.
    • [Improvement] Docs: Opens the developer docs at docs.gesso.build, linked from the footer.
    • [Fix] Canvas: Keeps your undo history when a project is slow to load, and draws charts at their intended height.

  2. v1.12.1001.2126

    • [Improvement] Landing pages: Gives a web landing page one layout from the hero through the sections below it.
    • [Fix] Landing pages: Renders, saves and lists a landing page in its real typeface, selected or not, instead of a fallback font.
    • [Improvement] Footer: Adds a Social column to the site and app footers, and social links to member emails.

  3. v1.11.928.1653

    • [Feature] Sketch: Treats a sketch on an empty project as its first brief: the same questions, plan and price as a typed brief, with one screen placed where you drew it.
    • [Improvement] Color: Keeps text readable on every surface, recolors the whole screen when you ask for a new color scheme, and holds a color you picked.
    • [Improvement] Copy: Catches placeholder text, template product names and stray punctuation in interface copy before a screen reaches you, and keeps headings upright.
    • [Improvement] Models: Adds three models to the Pro and Ultra selector, each at an existing credit price.
    • [Improvement] Follow-ups: Builds follow-up rounds on the screens you saved: missing screens are planned from the saved structure, and a tab bar that drifted is replaced.
    • [Improvement] Email: Refreshes the welcome email with a tour of Sketch, Flow and Node, and puts an Unsubscribe link in the footer of every member email.
    • [Fix] Canvas: Repairs a screen that could show its stylesheet as page text.
    • [Fix] Sharing: Sends a signed-out visitor to sign in and back to the project, where the link used to show a missing page.

  4. v1.10.923.0432

    • [Feature] MCP: Opens the hosted MCP server to Pro and Ultra: connect your coding agent from /connect, then generate, edit, critique and export designs without leaving the terminal.
    • [Improvement] Generation: Runs on a lighter pipeline: follow-ups render about 70% faster, and a round that cannot finish is not charged.
    • [Improvement] Composer: Reads the number of directions from your prompt, and asks whether you want three to explore, one screen, or the whole app.
    • [Improvement] Brief: Turns the hex colors and fonts named in your brief into the design's own tokens, and gives every flow screen the first screen's palette, gutters, fonts and active tab.
    • [Fix] Canvas: Carries an element you changed on one screen onto its sibling screens when you ask to reflect it across all of them.
    • [Fix] Canvas: Renders 3D asks: a landing page with a 3D hero shows a still frame on the board and moves on Play.
    • [Fix] Canvas: Keeps dark palettes dark on every screen, ends the spinner that could stick on a long brief, and repaints a reloaded project from its saved screens unchanged.
    • [Fix] Credits: Stops charging for an edit the canvas could not place.
    • [Improvement] Navigation: Widens the nav rail on browse pages, points prototype links at real screens, and renames The whole app to Core flow.

  5. v1.9.911.0501

    • [Improvement] Generation: Ships each generation's first pass instead of a corrective second round, cutting the worst-case wait.
    • [Fix] Nodes: Suggests a draft prompt that fits the nodes you connected, keeps a placed image through edits and re-combines, and shows the intro card the first time you touch a port.
    • [Fix] Canvas: Fills in the colors a combined screen came back without.
    • [Improvement] Billing: Links the Terms and the Privacy Policy from the paywall and Settings > Plan.
    • [Improvement] Discover: Takes Discover out of the nav while its ranking is reworked; nothing is deleted.

  6. v1.8.910.0554

    • [Feature] Credits: Adds top-up packs for Pro and Ultra in Settings > Plan and on the paywall; pack credits spend after your plan's and carry over at renewal.
    • [Feature] Pricing: Prices in Korean won at a fixed local price with a USD | KRW toggle; the currency you see is the currency you are charged.
    • [Improvement] Billing: Sells through Link, which handles local tax and sends your receipt.
    • [Fix] Billing: Opens the right page for a plan change: Get Ultra confirms Ultra, Downgrade lands on Free, and annual plans get a Switch to annual card.
    • [Improvement] Billing: Grants an annual plan's credits month by month across the year.
    • [Improvement] Legal: Refreshes the Terms and the Privacy Policy for the live product: 13 and up, with a parent or guardian's agreement below the age of majority.
    • [Improvement] Canvas: Introduces nodes with a feature card on the canvas, and lets you copy and paste screens across projects.
    • [Improvement] Design systems: Rebuilds the design system popover on the house tokens, with a visible focus ring on each control.
    • [Improvement] Email: Adds one-click unsubscribe to marketing email.

  7. v1.7.904.0338

    • [Feature] Nodes: Adds nodes to the canvas: drag the port off an artboard onto another screen, image or wireframe, describe what you want, and a new screen streams in from the pieces you chose.
    • [Feature] Design systems: Opens the project design system from the toolbar globe: it saves as you type, Apply lands on the screens you pick, and it stays applied across refreshes and new rounds.
    • [Feature] Context: Adds the project context card: drag it, edit the brief inline, and read the design.md the project runs on.
    • [Feature] Images: Adds an image composer and image nodes, so a concept image can become a screen.
    • [Feature] Uploads: Keeps your uploads in a library with a Product context tab; an upload informs a design without becoming its design system.
    • [Improvement] Standard mode: Starts drawing in seconds instead of waiting on a long think.
    • [Feature] Canvas: Adds Stop to a running generation; you are charged only for what is delivered.
    • [Improvement] Composer: Asks a visual-style question before the first round.
    • [Improvement] Canvas: Adds spacing and padding adjustment, and lets members drop files onto the canvas to add context.

    • [Feature] Canvas: Opens More like this on components to every member: pick an element and get alternatives in its place.
    • [Improvement] Credits: Counts credits in a smaller unit: a design is 10 credits, and Free, Pro and Ultra get 60, 120 and 400 a month; dollar prices are unchanged.
    • [Improvement] Composer: Shows the cost of a send next to the send button, and puts the model picker or the Quality / Standard pill inside the chat pill.
    • [Improvement] Models: Prices each model pick on a ladder that follows its real cost, shown as a coin chip in the dropdown; Pro and Ultra pay the same.
    • [Improvement] Canvas: Speeds up the first scroll and the cold regions of a big canvas, and adds New blank canvas to the nav rail.
    • [Fix] Canvas: Keeps a forked project's fonts, and accepts image uploads up to 50MB.
    • [Improvement] Billing: Shows the same plan descriptions in Settings > Plan, the paywall and the pricing page.
    • [Improvement] API: Publishes an OpenAPI document at gesso.build/openapi.json and answers unknown API routes with JSON errors.

    • [Fix] Composer: Stops offering a Retry that could never succeed on a first brief with no credits.

  10. v1.4.817.2132

  11. v1.3.815.1953

    • [Feature] Sign-up: Opens sign-up to everyone, with a Free plan on arrival and no waitlist or invite code.
    • [Improvement] Sign-in: Redesigns sign-in and lands new accounts on onboarding.
    • [Fix] Billing: Repairs the "Get more credits" link, and confirms an upgrade only once the payment is verified.

  13. v1.1.730.1732

    • [Feature] Sketch: Takes sketch mode out of preview for all members.
    • [Feature] Models: Lets paying members pick their model; Free members get Quality and Standard modes at a fixed price.
