1.9.0

Released November 7, 2025.

Manage your subscription, plan, and members without leaving the app. Bring an installed app into a conversation by typing @@, pin the projects you use most, and share a link that opens exactly the chat or project you meant. Plus a privacy policy and Terms of Service, Lockdown Mode for limiting which models can be used, and fixes across dictation, search, uploads, and staying signed in.

Links that open exactly what you shared (Major Update)

• Share a link straight to a chat or project: Every chat and project link points at that exact chat or project, so you can send it to someone as it is
• A dead link doesn't leave you stuck: Following an invalid link brings up a not-found page that guides you from there

Manage your subscription in the app (New Feature)

• Buy a plan: Pick a paid plan and pay for it at checkout
• Your plan lives in settings: See which plan you're on and manage it without leaving the app
• Compare what the plans cost: A price table lays out the price of every plan available
• Add and remove people: Put team members on your subscription, or take them off
• New accounts hear about their trial: A note tells first-time users about their trial
• Your subscription decides who can create a Cloud: Whether you can create a new Cloud depends on your subscription

Members and profiles

• See who someone is without opening anything: Hover over a member's avatar to see their details
• Member cards show status too: A member's card carries their information along with a status indicator
• Manage profiles and settings: The interface for managing profiles and settings is easier to work with
• Avatars show the right initials: Initials in member avatars are handled and displayed correctly
• Brie is a member like anyone else: Emerge.ai's assistant appears in the chat's member list, with a status like everyone else there

Pin the projects you use most (New Feature)

• Keep a project at the top: Pin a project and it stays at the top of your sidebar, wherever you are in the app
• Decide what shows and in what order: You have more say over which projects appear and how they're ordered
• Your pins stay put: A pinned project is still pinned the next time you come back

Bring an app into the conversation (New Feature)

• Type @@ to add an app: Mention one of your installed apps in a chat and it comes into the conversation with you
• Pick from a list as you type: Typing @@ brings up matching apps to choose from

Brie, chat by chat

• Decide which chats Brie takes part in: Turn Brie on or off in any conversation
• See whether Brie is in the room: Each chat shows whether Brie is active in it
• Your chat keeps going when a model isn't available: If the model a chat was set to use can't be reached, Emerge.ai falls back to the default model

Getting started

• Guided from your first sign-in: New accounts are walked through getting set up
• Create your first Cloud step by step: Setting up your first Cloud is a guided sequence
• Invite your team while you set up: Setup includes a step for inviting people
• See what upgrading gets you: The upgrade page lays out the plans and what separates them

Privacy, terms & Lockdown Mode

• Read how your data is handled: A privacy policy page sets out Emerge.ai's data handling practices
• See the terms you're agreeing to: A Terms of Service page is published
• Restrict which models can be used: Lockdown Mode lets an administrator, or you on your own account, limit models and what a chat can do — it turns off third-party models and web search

On a phone

• A sidebar that folds away: The sidebar collapses on a small screen
• Easier to hit with a thumb: Touch interactions and buttons across the app are easier to use on a phone
• Layouts that fit the screen: Numerous mobile layout problems are fixed
• Menus and drawers behave: The mobile menu and drawers work the way you'd expect

Around the app

• Find your way around settings: The settings pages are laid out and organized more clearly
• See where a chat or project sits: A trail of links shows where you are in a chat or project
• You can tell when something is loading: Clearer indicators throughout the app show when something is still loading
• When something goes wrong, you're told plainly: Error messages are consistent across the app and written for you to read

Notifications

• You hear about support interactions: Support notifications are clearer
• The unread count is right: The number on your notifications matches what's actually unread
• Clear the whole list at once: "Mark all as read" works reliably
• A notification link takes you to the right place: Notification links for Microsoft Teams and other platforms open what they're about

Bug fixes

• Dictation is reliable again: Problems with voice input are fixed
• Stop a reply part-way: An AI response that wouldn't stop now stops when you tell it to
• The members dialog behaves: Selecting and updating members works
• Search finds more of what you want: Search and its results are fixed
• Attachments go through: Attaching and uploading files is more dependable
• Staying signed in works properly: Sessions refresh and expire the way they should
• No more endless spinners: Several cases where a screen kept loading without ever finishing are fixed
