🆕 Run your worker on your own Claude or ChatGPT plan
Power a worker with the AI plan you already pay for, right from its settings. Managers can open a worker’s settings, select Engine, and choose whether the worker runs on Spinnable, Claude or ChatGPT. For Claude or ChatGPT, select Connect and follow the steps to sign the worker in to your plan. Switching engine signs the worker out of the old plan first, and Disconnect removes the sign-in at any time. Files and memory don’t change. While a worker is disconnected, its scheduled work fails until a manager connects it again, and the owner gets one email a day about it.🆕 Approval before a worker sends
Decide who your worker can email or message without checking with you first. In a worker’s Security and privacy settings, Approval before sending email and Approval before sending on WhatsApp let managers choose Anyone (the default), Workspace or Only managers. When a worker wants to send to someone who isn’t allowed, it holds the message as a draft until a manager approves or rejects it in chat. Drafts nobody approves expire after 48 hours.🆕 Tasks pause with their worker
Switching a worker off no longer leaves its tasks failing in the background. When a worker is switched off, including by a plan downgrade, its scheduled tasks are paused. Switching the worker back on resumes only the tasks that were paused this way, so a task you paused yourself stays paused. The email about a paused task now has a Resume the task button that opens that task.✨ Also This Week:
- Website chat widget retired – The website chat widget has been removed, and widgets already on websites no longer work, so you can take the embed code off your pages. To let people chat with a worker without an account, use the worker’s share link.
- Prices read “plus tax” – Plan and billing prices now show amounts before tax, and owners can select Add a VAT number to open Stripe. A trial that has become a paid plan can now downgrade.
- New tools – Cal.com, Ramp and Miro are now available to connect.
- Work carries on through updates – When a Spinnable update interrupts a chat or a scheduled run, the run now picks up where it stopped.
- To-dos and follow-ups – Workers keep your to-dos and nudge you about one at a time, and check back once on something they found for you. This is for managers and teammates, not outside contacts.
- Shorter WhatsApp texts – Workers now text in short messages, one idea each, instead of one long block.
- Skills run right away – A skill you hire from a template starts working at once instead of asking for a setup first.
- Find archived chats – Use the Archived status in the Chats filter to find a chat again, and unarchive it from its row.
- Clearer steps in chat – Tool steps read in your worker’s voice, such as “Searching the web” and then “Searched the web”.
- Knowledge uploads that fail say so – A knowledge upload that can’t be processed now fails instead of reporting success, so you can upload it again.
