Changelog

What's new in Katalock. We ship often.

October 2026

Studio Automation: workflows that run on their own

  • Studio now has two tabs: Media (images, video, music, AI graphs) and Automation, a visual canvas for workflows that run on their own, like n8n or Make, built into Katalock.
  • Describe an automation in your own words, or build it node by node: branches, loops, waits, any API, JavaScript or Python, AI, any connected app, the CRM, and image, video or music generation as a step. Test it, see each step's result on its node, re-run failed runs from the failed step, and roll back to any earlier version.
  • Studio knows what's connected: the Apps panel lists your connected apps with their events and actions, and you can connect a new one without leaving Studio.
  • One engine everywhere. Describe an automation in chat and you get a card: Turn it on, or Open in Studio. Chat can also build a Studio media graph for you, ready to Run.
  • The Tool / Action block in the Media tab now runs real app actions (a preview run only shows what it would do).
  • Flows and classic workflows open in the Automation tab, with one-click Move here. Fixed: an app event could start the same work twice when more than one automation listened for it.
  • The Automation tab works like n8n: a node creator with search and categories, a + on every wire, sticky notes, and a three-pane node panel (input data you drag into fields, parameters with a live preview, output) with Test step and Pin data. Executions shows every run on the canvas with each step's data.
  • New steps and tools: an AI Agent that uses your connected apps as tools, an error automation that runs when another one fails, import from n8n (paste a workflow), Ask Katalock to build, change or fix an automation. Katalock chat now knows your automations by name, runs them ("When you ask in Katalock chat" ones answer right in the chat) and changes them in plain words.

September 2026

Singapore, a more human voice & polish

  • Singapore is live. Katalock now runs in three markets, India, Indonesia and Singapore, each with its own language set and its own currency. Singapore ships in English, Malay, Chinese and Tamil with prices in Singapore dollars (S$). Your country is chosen once on the welcome screen and set for your account.
  • A more human voice. Replies now read like a person wrote them, not a machine. We dropped the em-dash habit, vary the rhythm, and lead with the answer instead of a restated question.
  • Katalock introduces itself the same way everywhere, as an everyday assistant for SME owners, students and researchers first, across all three markets, with supervised web automation kept as a minor, opt-in beta rather than the headline.
  • Creator Suite is now Katalock Studio.
  • Cleaner thinking. The reasoning trace shows only on the higher thinking levels (Smart and Deep). Fast, quick and light chats stay a single clean answer.
  • Supervised web automation is a general, opt-in beta: point Katalock at a website and it operates it one approved step at a time (it never handles your password or OTP).
  • Clearer developer pricing. Per-token rates now display per 1M tokens in your own currency, so Singapore prices read as real amounts, not rounded to zero.
  • Steadier under load. If the AI service is briefly busy, you now get a calm, plain message instead of a technical error, and provider details never leak to you.
  • Wallet alerts and auto-top-up for the developer API are wired end to end, with the low-balance email now shown in your own currency.

August 2026

Voice Agents (beta), longer video & more

  • Voice Agents (beta) — build a voice agent that answers out loud, grounded in your company Knowledge Stacks, and test it right in the browser with push-to-talk. Charged by the minute so it stays affordable.
  • Longer video — clips up to 30 seconds, with up to 50 reference images to keep your subject and style consistent across the shot.
  • Songs now come with cover art — every track gets its own watermarked album cover, and you can download the song as an MP3 or as a cover-and-music video to share on social. Pick “With vocals” or “Instrumental” before you generate.
  • HD music video — turn a song (yours or one you generated) plus its cover into a proper MP4, rendered server-side and saved to your Library. Also stitches several audio clips into one track.
  • Download a whole project as one .zip — code pages plus any generated images, video, or audio — and remove files you don't need from the working folder and deliverables.
  • Clearer usage limits — when you hit a session or weekly cap, the reset time now shows in your own local time with the date, and you can top up your wallet to keep going straight away.
  • Vision & voice now tell you why they failed (camera or mic permission, no device) instead of a silent black screen.
  • Planned — Voice Agents on WhatsApp and phone calls; separating a track into stems; and media generation over the developer API, priced per tier.

August 2026

Deep Work, site recreation & studio polish

  • Deep Work — a toggle that works a goal autonomously across several steps: it plans the open questions, researches each, self-checks with a second model, changes approach when it hits a wall, and keeps going until the goal's met or the step budget you set runs out.
  • Recreate a website — paste a URL in the Code tab and Katalock rebuilds its look and layout as an original starting point. With the browser engine on, it renders the live page (screenshot + real structure), matches the actual colours and fonts, and checks every button and link so nothing ships dead.
  • Verify-before-show for code — builds are cross-checked by a different model over up to three rounds plus a static soundness check, so you only see code that passes.
  • Document styles & Slides — export any answer as PDF, Word, Excel, or a Slides presentation, in a design style you pick (Professional, Minimal, Modern, Elegant, or Bold).
  • Bring-your-own-key model picker — when you link an OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or other key, choose exactly which of that provider's models to run from a dropdown, or type any model id.

July 2026

Trust layer, agents & media

  • Public Verify (/verify) — check any claim with K-Computer, no login needed. It now streams live, with a shareable proof page and an embeddable “Verified” badge.
  • Trust Layer (/trust) — one page showing how verified answers, replayable proof, continuous evaluation, and human approval fit together.
  • Task Inbox — send long jobs to the background and keep working; video now renders in the background and lands in your inbox when it's ready.
  • Supervised web automation — Katalock can drive a browser on a site you point it at to finish a task, showing you the plan first and pausing for approval before any submit or payment (it never handles your password or OTP).
  • Work memory — Katalock remembers people, projects, and preferences across chats, so you repeat yourself less.
  • Media: image, video, and song with aspect-ratio control and a prompt refiner — and you're only charged when something is actually produced.

July 2026

Developer platform & integrations

  • Developer API console at /developers — create keys, see your balance, top up, and copy-paste code samples.
  • Verified-answer API: POST /api/v1/verify returns a confidence-scored, cross-checked answer from K-Computer.
  • Katalock is now an MCP server — add `verify` and `ask` as tools in Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP client.
  • n8n automations: register your n8n workflows as tools the agent can call, and drop Katalock into any n8n workflow.
  • Per-key rate limiting and structural spend ceilings on the public API.

July 2026

Knowledge & verified answers

  • Knowledge Stacks — real chunked retrieval (RAG): add documents once, and Katalock cites the passages that matter.
  • Compare view — see the independent cross-checks laid out beside the K-Computer verdict.
  • Crew mode — a panel of personas debate, then get reconciled into one answer.
  • Thinking-effort control (Low / Medium / High) and a branch-tree explorer for forked chats.

June 2026

Building & research

  • Full build pipeline: plan → build → verify → publish, with clarifying questions up front.
  • Wide research — investigate a long list in parallel, then cross-check it.
  • Full-stack app generation saved as a downloadable project.
  • GitHub push and one-click deploy for what you build.

May 2026

Foundations

  • K-Computer: several independent models answer, a panel reconciles them, and low-confidence claims are flagged.
  • Five Indian languages, rupee pay-as-you-go pricing, and vernacular voice mode.
  • Projects, memory, custom agents, scheduled tasks, and the Creative lane.
