Skills by asking, WhatsApp coexistence
Tighten a playbook and put it on two teammates in one sentence. Big follow-ups reach the whole audience. Connect a WhatsApp Business app and bring your chats across.
- teammates
- skills
- transcription
“Tighten the follow-up playbook and put it on Sofía and Henry” now works end to end, in one conversation. And a follow-up on a 500-contact send acts on all 500, not a silent fraction.
Manage skills by asking
- Edit a skill by asking — reword or tighten a skill’s title, description or body from the assistant, with a preview you approve before anything is written. Gated on your permissions; platform skills stay read-only.
- Assign to several teammates at once — one request puts a skill on any teammate you manage, up to 25 at a time.
- Teammates resolve by name — “put this on Sofía and Henry” works without pasting ids.
- Long playbooks are no longer cut short — a document a teammate re-reads mid-conversation is carried whole across turns, so it never silently follows half a playbook.
Follow-ups reach everyone
- The whole audience — “tag everyone I texted yesterday” now tags, notes or schedules against every Contact the send actually reached, instead of the first few dozen.
- Report on who a send reached — contact search can filter by a send, so a delivered audience can be listed, exported or written to a file.
- Honest before release — asking for a follow-up while drafts are still unreleased reports “0 sent so far” rather than acting on nobody.
WhatsApp Business app coexistence
- Bring your contacts and chats across — connecting an existing WhatsApp Business app now requests your contacts, and optionally your chat history, exactly once.
- Honest sync status — Channels → WhatsApp shows pending, failed and phone-declined outcomes instead of silently retrying something that is only safe to ask for once.
Call transcription
- Gemini 3.5 Transcribe — a fourth transcription option: speaker labels, 85+ auto-detected languages, and transcripts that arrive punctuated with fillers removed. Opt-in; the default is unchanged.
- Custom vocabulary applies alongside speaker labels — it was previously dropped on every diarized recording.
