Personalized onboarding experience (Beta)

Starting from a blank page is one of the biggest barriers to getting value from any new tool. Our new onboarding experience removes that barrier by learning about you before you start building.
How it works:
- A few quick questions: We ask about your role, your industry, and the kind of work you do so we can tailor your first experience.
- Profile enrichment: With your permission, we pull context from your LinkedIn profile to understand your background, tools, and workflows.
- Ready-made starting points: Instead of a blank chat, you get personalized suggestions for what to build first based on what's most likely to be useful for someone like you.
The goal is simple: no more staring at an empty screen wondering where to begin. You get straight to building something that matters to your day-to-day.
This is currently in beta. We're refining it based on early feedback and rolling it out to all new users soon.
A faster, cleaner chat experience

We've made a few updates to how you interact with Cody in the chat, so you can move faster and stay focused on what you're building.
What's new:
- Collapsible steps: When Cody works through a complex build, tool calls and reasoning are now grouped into a compact summary. Click to expand whenever you need the full detail.
- Send now: Queued up a follow-up while Cody is still working? You can now send it immediately. The app stops the current stream and picks up your new message.
- One button, two actions: The Send button now switches to Stop while Cody is streaming, so there's one clear action at all times.
- Better follow-ups: Suggested follow-up prompts now appear inline at the end of Cody's last message, loading faster with clearer labels.
- Formatted thinking: Lists, code blocks, and links inside Cody's thinking and tool summaries now display properly instead of raw text.
What's new (May 2026)
- Publishing your apps is now faster. The publish window opens immediately with no loading delay.
- When your app preview is being built, you'll see a clear "Deploying preview..." message instead of a blank page. It refreshes automatically when it's ready.
- App previews now always show your latest version instead of sometimes showing an outdated or broken view.
- We've improved the first-time setup experience with clearer instructions and fixed an issue that could prevent some new users from completing onboarding.
- Highlighting text in the chat now works properly across the whole app, including on dark backgrounds where it was previously invisible.
- The sidebar no longer jumps around when you collapse or expand it.
- If you hit Send before your files have finished uploading, the app now lets you know and gives you the choice to send without them.
- Connecting a tool that's already linked no longer causes the chat to freeze.
- We've fixed a handful of issues that could cause the chat to crash during long conversations, when handling very large responses, or when uploading certain image files.
- If an image causes a repeated error, the app now recovers automatically instead of getting stuck in a loop.
- Remixing apps and workflows shared by others now works reliably.
Platform reliability and quality-of-life upgrades

Spend less time troubleshooting — and more time building.
Latest improvements:
- Accurate usage and billing info: Free tier limits and top-up status are easy to understand, and annual billing now shows both monthly and yearly totals upfront.
- Smarter project folders: The "Move to folder" menu now shows more relevant options, and folder actions are easier to find.
- More resilient scheduled workflows: Workflows automatically turn off after repeated failures so you don't use extra credits.
- Increased project run times: The time limit for long jobs has doubled, so large tasks like big code batches won't time out.
Advanced AI and model enhancements

What you get:

Seamless integrations management

Managing integrations and connected accounts is clearer and more reliable than ever.
Now you can:
- See and manage multiple integration accounts: Integration cards show how many accounts are connected, with a simple "Manage connections" option.
- Connect without overwrites: The app warns you if you're about to connect an account with a duplicate name, so nothing gets replaced by accident.
- Disconnect safely: Removing accounts from integrations like Gmail fully cleans up everything on both sides.
- Instant status updates: Changes to integrations and connections show up straight away.
- Promo codes on wallet page: Redeem single-use promo codes to add credit to your balance.

Enjoy a more intuitive and polished user experience across CodeWords.
What's new:
- Live preview environments: Set up fully working test versions of your product that anyone can open and review in real time — no complicated computer setup needed.
- Smarter canvas preview tabs: Tabs close properly, a new menu keeps things tidy when you have lots of previews open, and you'll see a clean error page instead of a confusing technical message when something goes wrong — it all just works how you'd expect.
- Chat and canvas polish: Resizing panels feels smoother, messages look better, and the overall layout is cleaner and easier to read.

What's new (April 2026)

Web Agent 2.0

Browser automation in CodeWords has been completely rebuilt from the ground up.
Web Agent 2.0 uses a new dual-engine architecture: Browserbase for AI-powered browsing and Playwright for precise, deterministic actions. The result is faster, more reliable web automation — whether you’re scraping pages, filling forms, or navigating complex web apps.
What's new:
- AI-powered extraction: Tell the agent what you want in plain English and it finds, reads, and extracts the data — even on JavaScript-heavy pages.
- Precise automation: For repeatable tasks that need exact clicks, fills, and navigation, Playwright handles it with surgical precision.
- Live browser view: Watch the browser work in real time from the canvas preview panel — so you always know what’s happening.
- Persistent context: Your browser sessions remember your login state, cookies, and preferences across runs, so you don’t need to re-authenticate every time.
Ask Cody to browse any website or automate a web task to try it out.
A more generous free plan

We've reworked how the free plan works so you never hit a wall mid-build.
Instead of a one-time credit, your free plan now comes with a daily allowance that renews automatically — giving you consistent access without needing to upgrade right away.
What's changed:
- Daily credits: You now receive $2 of credits every day, refreshed automatically.
- Monthly cap: Free plan usage is capped at $10/month so you can keep building at a steady pace.
- No mid-session blocks: If you’re in the middle of something and hit a limit, the system tops you up so you can keep going.
If you’re on the free plan, you don’t need to do anything — the new model applies automatically. To unlock higher limits, visit the Wallet page to explore Pro and Max plans.
A smoother way to connect your tools

Connecting CodeWords to the tools you already use just got a whole lot easier.
We've switched our integrations engine to Composio, giving you a faster, more reliable way to connect to thousands of external services — from CRMs and spreadsheets to messaging platforms and developer tools.
What's new:
- One-click connect: Authorize your tools directly from the chat interface with a cleaner OAuth consent flow. No more copying tokens or leaving the page.
- 2,000+ integrations: Access a wider library of tools out of the box, including Google Sheets, Slack, HubSpot, Shopify, and more.
- Trigger support: Set up event-driven automations that fire when something happens in your connected tools, like a new row in a spreadsheet or a new message in a channel.
- Better search: Finding the right integration is now faster with improved search and toolkit discovery.
Head to any chat and ask Cody to connect one of your tools to try it out.
Upgraded support chat with Fin AI

We've upgraded our support chat provider to Intercom's Fin AI.
Now you get:
- Smarter, AI-powered support 24/7 that's synced to our platform's knowledge base.

- Select the three dots from the navar in the chat to see previous versions and rollback.
- Head to Projects > Select a workflow or app > Activity page and see a timeline of versions or select a version to revert.

What’s new:

View all versions, summaries, and timelines for a specific workflow or app in the activity pages on each project.
Activity overviews

Now when you click on your workflow or app in the Projects page, you’ll be taken to its activity overview. The activity page means you have more high-level control over everything you build.
What's included:
- Quick overviews: Head straight to the latest chat to continue building or editing your project, see which version is being used, and find total or average costs for that project.
- Control schedules and triggers: Quickly create schedules or triggers for your project, and see a quick overview of existing ones.
- Versioning: Find an overview of all project versions. Return to previous versions, see a summary of version changes, and understand when changes were made.

Runtab at the top of the activity page. Click through to manually run your workflow.

What you get:
- Create folders: We’ve made it easy to organize your workflows and apps. Select Create folder to group your projects and organize client systems.
- Organize existing projects: Click the three dots on a project to access a range of actions. Go to that project’s chat, rename, duplicate, delete, or add it to a folder.
Updates to inputting integrations and secrets

We’ve changed how you input secrets and connect to your other tools.
What’s new:
- Secure input box: When you’re prompted to input an API key or secret, you’ll be able to do so through a secure input box.
- Connection panel: When a connection to another one of your tools requires authorization, you’ll be prompted to connect from within the chat interface. You no longer need to leave your chat, just click to Connect and the authorization window will open automatically.
Security is always at the forefront of how we’re building. Read more about our security practices here.
