Latest ITONICS
product updates

• Change type from the property menu: In the element type configuration, open a property’s … menu and pick Change type. Number, Currency and Percentage convert into one another.
• Preview before you convert: See your values in the old and the new format side by side. When converting to Currency, the currency is prefilled from the unit label, so € becomes EUR.
• Every usage in view: The dialog lists each element type and place where the property is used, so you know what the change touches.
• Safe by design: If the property feeds workflow criteria, formulas, rollups or lifecycles, the conversion is blocked until you remove those dependencies.
• Formula results as Number, Currency or Percentage: On a formula’s Formatting tab, choose under Display as whether a numeric result shows as a Number, Currency or Percentage, set decimals and the thousands separator, and check it in the preview.

• Undo and redo your own edits: Ctrl/Cmd+Z takes back your last cell edit, pasted value or manual row reorder, and Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+Z brings it back. If someone else changed the same cell in the meantime, that step is skipped and you’re notified instead of overwriting their work.
• Row menu on the drag handle: Click the … button in the index column to open an element in a new tab, copy its link, watch or like it, add it to a collection, smart copy it, add a relation, expand its related sub-rows or delete it. Drag the same button to reorder rows, as before.
• Comments next to the table: Open an element’s comments in a side panel from the row menu or the quick comment button that appears on hover. Enter sends, Shift+Enter adds a line break, and the panel follows when you switch rows.

• Your policies, your URLs: Each policy has its own title, content and address, appears as its own tab on the public legal page, and can be set active or inactive at any time.
• One policy, several languages: Maintain the title and content per language. Users see their own language, falling back to your default where a translation is missing.
• Blueprints to keep or copy: ITONICS maintains blueprint policies that are switched on by default. Leave them as they are, or copy one as the starting point for your own version.
• Consent on your terms: Decide per policy whether new users consent at sign-up and whether existing users re-consent when the text changes. Policies stay two clicks away from anywhere, including the login screen.

A budget is not a label, and 90% is not text. Currency and Percentage are now property types in their own right, and the Number property has been rebuilt alongside them, so quantitative data is captured correctly and stays numeric everywhere it travels.

Key features:

• Currency and Percentage as their own types: Pick the currency instead of typing € into a unit label, set the decimal places for either, and watch a live preview while you configure.
• Numbers that read right: Add an optional unit label such as h, kg or cm, switch the thousands separator on or off, and set your preferred number format once in your profile. Everyone sees the same data in their preferred format.
• Ranges you can change later: Minimum and maximum values are optional and editable after data exists. Narrow a range and you see how many elements fall outside it, and whether Formulas or Rollups reference them, before confirming.
• Points you to the right type: For example, type € or % into the unit label while creating a new Number property, and the configuration suggests the matching Currency or Percentage type instead.

Any user field, plus Created by and Updated by, can now be an assignee on Form, Review, Trigger and URL nodes. One workflow then routes each element to its own owners, teams or reviewers.

Key features:

• Single- and multi-value user fields. Assignee lists accept named users and user fields together. A multi-value field grants access to every user stored in it. Created by and Updated by work like any other user field.
• Live resolution. Assignees are resolved from the element’s current field values at runtime. If a field value changes, access moves to the new users immediately, with no need to republish.
• Assignees on Trigger and URL nodes. Both nodes now support assignees. Without assignees, they stay open to everyone with access to the element, as before.
  

Stop copying numbers out of Excel by hand. The new Smart Excel property binds cells of an uploaded Excel template to properties of the element, so the workbook and ITONICS stay in sync.

Key features:

• One template, every element: Upload an .xlsx template once in the property configuration and link individual cells to properties: a budget, a launch date, an owner. Every element of that type gets its own copy of the workbook.
• Choose the direction per cell: Read from pulls a cell into a property, Write into pushes a property into a cell, Sync keeps both in step.
• Let Excel do the math: The workbook keeps its formulas. Write a budget in from ITONICS, let Excel recalculate, and read the result back as a property.
• Every version kept: Download, edit, upload a new version. Every version is kept with uploader and date, and watchers are notified on upload.

See the numbers behind an element without opening a single related one: the total budget of all projects in a program, how many startups sit behind a trend, the latest milestone across a portfolio. The new Rollup property aggregates a property of all elements linked through a relation field and keeps the result current as that data changes.

Key features:

• Pick a relation, pick a property: Configure the Rollup on the element type by choosing a relation field and the property of the related elements to roll up.
• Aggregations that fit the data: Sum, average, median, min and max for numbers; earliest and latest for dates; count all, count not empty, count empty, show original or show unique values for everything else.
• Always current, never maintained: The value recalculates when an element is added to or removed from the relation, or when a source value changes.
• Read-only by design: System-calculated, no manual edits, no duplicate fields to keep in step.

Read more

See everything that happened to an element in one place. The new Activities tab on the element detail page records every property change, along with every workflow step and automation that ran on the element.

Key features:

• Full change log: Every property change is logged with the old and new value, who made it, and when. This applies to edits made directly on the element, through a workflow form, or by an automation.
• Workflows made traceable: See when a workflow started, which steps were completed, how reviews were decided, and what automations did, such as changing a status, converting the element or sending an email. Each entry is tagged with the workflow it came from.
• Find what matters fast: Filter the log to show all entries, only manual changes by people, only automated actions, or only reviews.

Scheduled maintenance will take place on Saturday, October 17, 10am–4pm CEST. During this time, the system may be temporarily unavailable. Please plan accordingly.

A Lifecycle shows the phases an element goes through as a step-by-step bar in the element header. It's powered by a dropdown property that workflows can move forward automatically.

Key features:

• Lifecycle tab: Set up lifecycles in the new Lifecycle tab of the element type configuration. Pick a single-select dropdown property, or create one directly from the lifecycle.
• Phases your way: Reorder, rename and hide phases. The order applies to the lifecycle only and doesn't change the property's option order.
• Pinned fields: Pin further fields to a phase, shown in a popover on the element. Empty pinned fields are grouped separately.
• Activation filter: Choose on which elements a lifecycle is shown.
• Several lifecycles per element: If more than one lifecycle applies to an element, users switch between them on the element.
• Workflow-driven: Move an element to the next phase with an Update element node at any point in a workflow, including after an automation.

Key features:

• Videos up to 100 MB: Attach customer interviews, webinar recordings, trade-fair clips or demo videos directly to your prompt.
• Ask anything about the content: Get summaries, pull out key statements, or turn what was said and shown into trends, ideas or project input.
• Same flow as files: Works just like the document upload in Prism Chat, so there's nothing new to learn.

Read more

Review a mixed portfolio in one table, fill it from a spreadsheet in seconds, and put rows in the order your decision actually follows.

Key features:

• Columns across all element types: Compare Trends, Technologies and Startups side by side. Every type's properties are available, labeled with the icons of the types they belong to.
• Paste from a spreadsheet: Bring data into a table fast from Excel, Google Sheets or Numbers with Ctrl/Cmd+V, or copy between two ITONICS tables. Text, number, date, dropdown and hyperlink columns are supported.
• Reorder rows manually: Rank a shortlist by judgment using drag-and-drop rather than by a property and save that order with the view. Drop a row into another group to reassign it.

Read more

Insights Agent analyses now follow the output structure defined in your analysis instructions more closely. The clearer the structure you define, the more consistent the result.

Key features:

• Structure is respected: Defined sections are reflected more reliably in the order you set them, with less pull towards the agent’s internal research framing.
• More action-oriented output: A “How should we react / Recommended Actions” step leans towards prioritized actions rather than a list of developments, patents and market figures.
• Per-action detail where requested: Description, rationale, timeline (range of months) and success criteria are picked up more consistently when your instructions specify them.

Read more

See the full picture behind an element at a glance. Table View can now show related elements as rows, following the relations you've already set up.

Key Features:

• Rows via relations: Pick a relation and the linked elements show up as rows under each element in the table.
• Works with any relation: Projects and their risks, trends and their signals, ideas and their experiments. Any relation in your workspace can drive the view.

Read more

Key Features:

• Videos up to 100 MB: Attach customer interviews, webinar recordings, trade-fair clips or demo videos directly to your prompt.
• Ask anything about the content: Get summaries, pull out key statements, or turn what was said and shown into trends, ideas or project input.
• Same flow as files: Works just like the document upload in Prism Chat, so there's nothing new to learn.

Calculate what you actually need to see: budget health, days to deadline, or a status label based on your own thresholds. The new Formula property dynamically computes its value from other properties on the element, in spreadsheet-like syntax, and keeps itself up to date whenever a referenced value changes.

Key Features:

• Reference any property by name: Text, number, date, dropdown, user, rating, tags, and metadata such as Created by or Updated at all resolve to their readable value.
• Full function library and output formats: Math, text, logical and date functions with comparison and concatenation operators — nest IF clauses to turn planned vs. consumed budget into a dependent decision, or count working days to a deadline. Return the result as text, number, or date.
• Works across the platform: Formula columns in Table View with sorting, aggregation and row colors, plus Board view, global filters, Excel export and the API.
• Drive decisions, not just display: Use formula results as workflow criteria and in filters, so calculated health or breach flags trigger the process automatically.

Read more

Settings no longer take you out of your work: more performant and streamlined design. Workspace settings open in a modal over the view you were on, with a sidebar to move between sections — with organization-level settings in their own dedicated home.

Key features:

• Settings in modal: Open workspace settings from anywhere without leaving your current view.
• Sidebar navigation: Easily move between workspace configuration sections from a single sidebar.
• Element configuration moves: Better overview of and easier configuration entry to your element types.

Read more on organization & workspace settings

The workflow builder is rebuilt around a single model: everything is a node on a canvas. Manual nodes for the points where a person acts, routing nodes that decide which path an element takes, and automation nodes that run on their own, combined freely instead of forced into a fixed sequence of steps and gates. One workflow can now cover branching cases that previously needed a near-duplicate workflow each. More powerful, more flexible.

Key features:

• Start triggers: Apply a workflow to all elements, narrow it down to a subset only, or run it on demand.
• Manual nodes: Configure the form directly on the node — no step, then action, then form to set up first — collect data easily, assign named reviewers, place a manual checkpoint (human-in-the-loop), or hand-off to an external tool. Gate any of them behind a condition, and set to auto-complete and continue on condition met.
• Routing nodes: Run every path in parallel, activate each path whose condition matches, take exactly one branch, or stop execution unless criteria are met.
• Automation nodes: Update element values, send e-mails, convert elements, change status, or delay a next node — automatically runparts of the workflow.
• Dedicated action section: Action buttons from active workflows sit together on the detail page of an element, with fully configurable placement, and accessible via the stack view.
• Activity log: Logging workflow-related property changes, allowing traceability across workflows on an element's detail page.

Files are no longer limited to the Master Context only. Attach a file straight to a prompt and Prism works with this additional context directly in your conversation — analyzing slide decks, text documents, portfolio exports, and images.

Read more

The Master Context tells Prism how your organization works, its mission, focus, and key objectives. Now, you can enrich it further with your source documents — a strategy deck, a portfolio export, latest latest market reports. Prism draws on both.

Read more

Ask for a process flow, a decision tree, or a dependency map and Prism now draws it. Model the sequences a technology passes through or show how a value chain hangs together.

Key features:

• Multiple diagram types: Flowcharts, sequence flows, state and relationship (ER) diagrams.
• Surfaces: Ask in Prism chat, or optionally define it an Insight Agent's instructions.

Read more

Relation fields can now be added as columns in Table View, just like any other property — see connected elements right in the table without opening each one.

Read more

The link in export emails now opens a dedicated download page instead of pointing straight at the file.

Key features:

• Automatic download: Starts automatically, with a manual fallback link for browsers that block it.
• Expired link messaging: A clear message appears once the link's 7-day validity has passed, instead of a technical error.
• Invalid link detection: Broken or malformed links are flagged clearly.

Read more

Email notifications move from one global on/off switch to granular, per-category control.

Key features:

• Master toggle: Turn all email notifications on or off in one click.
• Categorized controls: Subscribe or unsubscribe by category — Own Element Updates, Watched Element Updates, Mentions & Collaboration, Assignments, Process, Sites, and Sharing.
• Organization-level settings: Choose your notification preferences globally applicable all workspaces you are part of.
• Essential emails always sent: Account-critical emails (password resets, invitations, etc.) are always delivered regardless of your preferences.

Read more

Citations are now part of the Lens tools in Prism. Ask who cites whom, filter by citation counts, and rank the results in charts — for scientific publications and patents alike.

Key features:

• Filter by citation count: Narrow any paper or patent search to records above (or below) a citation threshold — a fast proxy for impact.
• Forward citation search: Find the papers that cite a given paper, or the patents that cite a given patent — the whole downstream trail of a key publication.
• Non-patent literature for patents: Filter patents by their non-patent literature references — the bridge between a patent portfolio and the science it is built on.
• Chart-ready results: Citation fields work with Prism's charting, so results can be ranked in a bar chart or plotted against each other — e.g. forward patent citations vs. non-patent literature references in a scatter plot.

Read more

Ratings are now available via the ITONICS API. Evaluation data can be read out of the platform for reporting and written back into it from other systems — no manual re-entry, no CSV exports in between.

Key features:

• Read every rating on an element: Retrieve all users' ratings for an element — the score, who gave it, any note they added, and when they rated.
• Write ratings from other systems: Create, update, and delete ratings via the API, so assessments collected elsewhere land directly on the element.
• Built for reporting: Filter by user, rating field, or date and page through large result sets, ready for BI dashboards and scheduled exports.

Read more

A tab on every element that answers configurable questions about that element.

Key features:

• Perspectives: Configurable per element type — e.g. "What's changing", "What it means for us", competitor or patent analysis. Written in plain language.
• Cited answers & charts: 3–6 bullets per perspective, each linked to its source; an optional chart when defined in the instructions.
• Configure once: Set perspectives per element type; every viewer of that element sees the result. Prism re-runs only on a config change or a manual Re-analyze.

Read more

The left-nav Insights module is upgraded with ITONICS Prism Charts.

Key features:

• On-the-fly charts: Generate charts (e.g. interest over time, world map, topic clusters) with Vega when specified in the prompt or perspective instructions.
• Element cards: The layout of the element cards in the chat is now much more polished with better overview for value changes.

Relation properties can now carry their own color. Set a color once in the element configuration and it's applied everywhere the relation is visualized.

Key features:

• Color per relation property: Every relation property now has a color configuration in the element type setup — pick the color that represents that connection.
• Applied across views: The configured color is used wherever the relation plays a role, in the Radar and the Network Graph, so the same connection reads consistently across visualizations.
• Consistent with other properties: Relation colors work the same way as the color configuration you already use for other property types — no new concept to learn.

The Radar received a major upgrade: no element limits, multi-select properties, richer segmentation, and per-field relation styling.

Key features:

• Element limit: The 200-element limit is gone. Radar, Board, and Network Graph render a larger number of elements.
• Multi-select properties: Multi-select dropdown properties can now be used in the Radar. Elements are duplicated into each matching segment.
• Click-to-drill segments: Click a segment to open it directly; navigate back up via the blue parent-segment line (breadcrumb navigation is removed).
• Segment shading & colors: Segment colors are pulled from the dropdown value configuration. Adding a value with a color automatically colors the segment.
• Relations per property: Toggle relations on/off for each relation property, using the color configured on that property.
• Refined readability: Distance titles below the line, title size adapting to element count, black hover, and new loading animations.

Read more

Important for Radar embeds: Segment and relation colors now come from the property configuration. If a property has colors configured, they'll show up in the embed. If a property lacks configured colors, everything falls back to grey.

Cluster by any property (tags included), bigger dots = more relations, and zoom in to expand from high-level groups down to sub-sub relations.

Key features:

• Cluster by property: Group the graph by any property, including tags. A single dot in the center of each cluster carries the connections to other clusters, cutting the number of outgoing lines dramatically.
• Importance at a glance: Elements with the most relations get bigger dots and their titles are displayed first.
• Relation levels: Enable each relation field individually and expand to sub-sub relations.
• Semantic zoom: Relations are grouped at a high level; zooming in reveals more detailed connections.
• New loading animation: A refreshed loading experience.
• Group relations: multiple relations between two elements collapse into one line, labeled with the count — far less clutter.
• New layout algorithm: automatically organizes complex relationship networks into a clear, readable layout — clusters, connections, and key elements are easier to grasp at a glance.

Read more

We rebuilt the way elements are loaded under the hood. Lists, boards, radars, and detail pages now load noticeably faster

New endpoints and property-based filtering for fuller automation.

Key features:

• User endpoint: Manage users via GET, GET by URI, POST, PATCH, and DELETE.
• Role endpoint: Retrieve roles via GET.
• Property-based filtering for get elements: Filter by dropdowns, hierarchical dropdowns, numerical properties, and date properties.

Read more

Prism now cites patents and scholarly research from Lens.org whenever a prompt calls for IP or scientific evidence — searched and referenced directly in the answer.

Key features:

• Global patent coverage: 172.2M patent records from 100+ offices, including USPTO, EPO, WIPO/PCT, DPMA, JPO, CNIPA, and more.
• Deep research coverage: 325.9M scholarly works, harmonized from CrossRef, PubMed, PubMed Central, OpenAlex, and CORE.
• Natural-language filters: Narrow searches by patent type, status, applicant, inventor, owner, and CPC/IPCR classification — or by author, institution, source, publisher, and country — just by asking

Read more

Scheduled maintenance will take place on July 11, 2026, from 10:00 am to 02:00 pm CEST. During this time, the system may be temporarily unavailable. Please plan accordingly.

Key features:

• Stable configuration: Reorder, add, and delete ratings safely — stable identifiers keep existing data intact.
• New slider ui: A clearer slider with configurable colors, so each rating reads at a glance.
• Spider diagram analysis: Aggregated ratings get a spider diagram to compare the global average against specific users.
• Archive ratings: Retire ratings you no longer need without losing history.
• "Rated by" filter: See who has and hasn't rated — resolves the current user at runtime.

Share a URL in the AI chat and ITONICS Prism scrapes the page, then summarizes the key information. External sources, folded straight into your analysis.

Key features:

• Comments: Full CRUD on element comments (single or bulk), with @-mentions.
• Element header image: Set an element's header/banner image via the new field type.
• Landing page views: Create custom HTML/CSS pages through the Views API (page view type).

Boards are now fully shapeable to the model you actually use. Reorder swimlanes, and split each Board cell into as many renameable zones as you need.

Key features:

• Reorderable swimlanes: Drag swimlanes into any order, just like columns — arrange your Board to match how you think about the work.
• Renameable cell zones: Split each Board cell into multiple zones and name each one. Build advanced structures such as an Eisenhower-style prioritization model — and not limited to a 2x2: use as many zones as you like. Zones can be activated/deactivated via view settings.
  
• Board PDF export: Export any Board as a PDF for sharing and reviews.

Read more

Prism's reasoning approach has been modernized and made transparent, and now supports queuing multiple prompts for batch scenarios.

Key features:

• Transparent reasoning: Prism now exposes the exact steps it takes when processing a prompt, so you can see how it arrived at a result.
• Prompt queuing: Queue multiple prompts and let them run in sequence — ideal for batching. Reorder the queue, stop it, or repeat it as needed.
  
• Prompt history navigation: Step through your previous prompts using the up and down arrow keys.

Read more

Element watchers are now fully manageable through the Public API. Keep the right stakeholders subscribed to the right elements automatically — no manual updates in the UI.

Key features:

• List, add & remove watchers: Read, add, and remove element watchers directly through the Public API.
• Automation-ready: Let integrations and scheduled jobs keep stakeholders subscribed to relevant elements as ownership and context change.

Read more

Relations are now a fully configurable property type. Define your own relation types and decide which element types they connect.

Key features:

• Relation as a property: Add a "Relation" property to any element type and name it whatever the connection actually represents — "Belongs to Campaign," "Owner Team," "Depends on," "Supports OKR."
• Configurable searchable element types: Choose exactly which element types can be related in a given field.
  
• Unidirectional or bidirectional: Pick whether the relation flows one way, or have the reverse relation auto-created on the related element with the name you choose.
  
• Limit 1 or multiple: When set to Limit 1, the field can only contain one value. If a user adds a new relation, it automatically replaces the existing one.
• Search, add, or create inline: Search elements directly in the field; create new elements from the field if they don't exist yet.
• Updated Network Graph: Arrows visualize uni- vs. bidirectional. Secondary relations toggleable. The Network Graph can be placed on the element detail page via the element configuration.
• Recommended relations updated: Accepting a recommended relation now requires picking the target relation field.
• Import, export & API: Relation fields are part of Excel export/import and the element API response.
• Legacy relations migrated: Existing static relation fields are auto-converted to relation fields.

Read more

The Campaign module reaches End of Life in CW 25. With dynamic relation fields released this week, you can now model the same setups more flexibly via Parent-Child Relations.

What changes:

• Campaign Element Type becomes a standard Element Type; Campaign-specific Board and workflow are removed.
• Workflow phase status, names, and task history are no longer stored. On request ITONICS can export this to CSV.
• The "which Idea belongs to which Campaign" link is Automatically migrated to a relation field.

What stays intact: All Campaign elements, all properties, all Idea data, and all relations. Campaign-specific Ideas remain visualizable as a Board via relation filters.

Replacement path:

On the Idea element type, create a new property of type Relation:

• Field name:
• Related to: Specific element types → Campaign
• Relation type:
• Related property name:

Use Folders, Pages, Boards and Workflow for the presentation and governance layer.

We redesigned notification e-mails with the new design system to make updates clearer, more consistent, and easier to scan.

Key features:

• Updated design: Notification e-mails now follow the new design system for a cleaner and more consistent experience.
• Priority-based delivery: High-priority notifications are sent immediately, while medium-priority updates are batched and delivered within 5 minutes.
  
• Element updates in the e-mail: Field changes and the person who made them are now shown directly in the notification body.
  
• Clear context and branding: Organization names appear in the subject, workspace details are shown where relevant, and organization notifications use the logo.

The API (V2) can handle now file attachments and rich text. Integrations can round-trip the content you actually work with — not a stripped-down version of it.

Key features:

• Attachment endpoint: Allocate, list or detach files to elements via the new /attachment endpoint group. Files are uploaded once via the existing /files endpoint and then attached to the target element/property by reference.
• Rich text preservation via API: Rich-text property values accept plain HTML on input (e.g., <p>hello</p>) or base64:-prefixed HTML for payloads that would otherwise need careful escaping.

Read more

Your tables now act less like a static report and more like a true tool for managing your innovation portfolio. Configure, organize, and visualize data directly from the table — no setup detours required.

Key features:

• Column menu actions: Sort, Hide, Pin, and Move columns — all directly from the column header.
• Edit field configuration in table: Update a property's name, description, values and mandatory settings via "Edit property" in the column menu, without leaving the table.
• Add & create fields in table: Spin up a new property right from the column picker. No need to jump to the element configuration.
• New properties available: Created At, Created By, and Collections are now selectable as table properties — surface ownership and history at a glance.
• Color rules: Define row colors based on any property value. Example: turn rows red when "Health Status = Critical" and green when "Health Status = On Track" — so the projects that need executive attention surface instantly in your next quarterly portfolio review.
• Cell wrapping, cell scaling & row size: Adapt row height to content or set custom sizing so long text and richer cells stay readable.

Read more

Customize how detail pages are organized to better fit your content. Choose from flexible layout options to control how information is displayed.

Key features:

• Layout options: Select from multiple page structures, including 1 Column, 2 columns, main + sidebar, 3 columns, and narrow wide narrow layouts.
• Flexible organization: Adapt detail pages to match the type of content you are working with, from focused single-column views to more complex multi-section layouts.

Read more

We’ve added multi-sort capabilities to the Table View, making it easier to organize and analyze large sets of elements.

For example, in project portfolio management, users can sort first by Strategic priority, then by business impact, project status, and target date to review the most important and Time-critical projects first.

We’ve expanded the ITONICS API with additional endpoints to support more integration and automation scenarios.

Key features:

• Like endpoint: Enables working with likes via API.
• File endpoint: Enables working with files via API.

Read more

We’ve improved Excel exports by making column ordering more predictable and consistent.

Key features:

• Stable column order: Export columns now remain consistent across repeated exports.
• Predictable custom fields: Custom fields are ordered by the date they were added to the element type, so newly added fields are appended consistently.
• Rename-safe ordering: Renaming fields no longer affects their position in the export.

Important:

• Column order may change once after rollout due to the new sorting logic but will remain stable after that.

Scheduled maintenance will take place on May 10, 2026 from 09:00 PM to 10:00 PM CEST.
During this time the system may be temporarily unavailable. Please plan accordingly.

We’ve made our Table View more powerful with images, attachments and element type columns.

Key features:

• Element type column:
  Display a new “Element type” column in your table. Easily toggle visibility via the column menu for better structure and clarity.
• File attachments:
  Manage files within the Table View —upload, download, and delete attachments without leaving the interface.
• Header image display:
  View header images directly in the table for richer visual context and easier content recognition.

We have introduced an always-on workspace search that allows users to quickly find and access any element across their workspace, improving navigation speed and overall efficiency.

Key features

• Global search access: Easily trigger the search from the side bar or via Cmd + K (Mac) / Ctrl + K (Windows) for quick access.
• Last viewed elements: Instantly access the last 10 viewed elements directly within the search for faster navigation.
• Flexible actions: Open results directly, in a new tab, or copy element links for easy sharing.
• Prism integration: Analyze any element directly from the search using Prism for deeper Insights.

We are releasing the ITONICS API (V2), which enables programmatic access to your workspace data and opens up new possibilities for integrations and automation. While the previous V1 API only supported retrieving elements, V2 significantly expands these capabilities.

Key features

• Element management: Create, retrieve, update, and delete elements directly via API.
• Element retrieval: Fetch individual elements using their unique URI for precise access.
• Element types: Retrieve existing element types and create new ones to extend your data model.
• Scalable foundation: This initial release sets the foundation for upcoming endpoints and extended capabilities.
• Future-proof integration: V1 will remain available for now, but we encourage transitioning to V2 as it will be deprecated in the future.

Read more

We have released an update to the form builder and detail page, improving structure, usability and flexibility when configuring and viewing element details.

Key features

• Collapsible sections: Sections now have a clear visual separation with borders and can be expanded or collapsed. The default state can be configured in the element setup.
• Field control options: Fields can now be defined as mandatory and/or read-only to better guide data input and governance.
• Toggle-able field descriptions: Field descriptions can be shown or hidden to balance clarity and simplicity for end users.
• Information section: A new section type allows adding flexible information blocks for explanations anywhere on the detail page.

Read more

Prism now automatically understands the context of what you’re currently viewing in the platform (Radar, Table, Element, ...)

Key features

• Context: Prism recognizes the current page you are viewing, allowing it to interpret prompts like “summarize these elements” or “rate my ideas” based on what you see on screen.
• Manual context control: Users can manually set specific elements or views as scope to ensure Prism focuses on exactly the right information.
• Clear context visibility: The context used for each prompt is shown within the conversation, providing transparency about what Prism used to generate its response.

Read more

Prism can now interpret natural language questions about filtering or searching for specific elements or field values.

Key features

• Dynamic filtering: Prism can search using fields such as dates, tags, text fields, numbers, users, ...
• Ratings & metrics search: Filter elements using ratings or numeric values, such as identifying highly rated ideas or projects with certain performance thresholds.
• Natural language queries: Users can simply ask questions like “What projects were updated recently?” or “Which startups were founded in 2016?” and Prism automatically converts them into structured searches.
• Complex query support: Prism can combine multiple criteria in a single request, enabling more advanced exploration of your innovation data.

Prism can now fill out fields directly from conversational prompts.

Key features

• Broad field support: Prism can populate most field types, including titles, summaries, formatted rich text descriptions, dates, numbers, dropdown selections, ratings, hierarchical dropdowns, and user assignments.
• Structured updates from prompts: Users can update multiple fields in one request, with Prism translating natural language into structured data.
• Rich text formatting: Descriptions and documentation can include formatted content directly generated by Prism.
• Out-of-scope: Hyperlinks, images, and attachments are currently not supported for AI-driven field population.

We are introducing the ability to permanently delete properties from the workspace with full transparency and built in safeguards.

Key features
