> Run your worker on your own Claude or ChatGPT plan, approval before a worker sends, tasks that pause with their worker, and the website chat widget retiring

## 🆕 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.
