Create and capture from one button in meetings

One button in a meeting creates or captures anything, new workspaces open with a guided welcome session, and documents can hold Mermaid diagrams.

One button to create and capture in meetings

During a meeting the toolbar now has a single "+" to create or run anything, plus a search to find and pin items. Open it to turn the live discussion into a typed item, choosing the last minute, last two or ten minutes, or the whole meeting. From the same place you can create a doc, canvas, or task for everyone or just yourself, run a summary or item extraction, or run one of your own skills.

A guided welcome session for new team members

New workspaces now open with a guided welcome session: an agent tuned to your industry walks you through Tana in a live meeting and sets up spaces, types with filled-in examples, and a custom agent for your work. A follow-on step lists upcoming meetings from your calendar and invites you to pick one to try Tana in, switching its join link to a Tana call.

Diagrams with Mermaid

You can now add Mermaid diagrams to any document. Type "/mermaid" or set a code block's language to Mermaid, then switch between a live "Preview" and the "Source". Click a diagram to open it in a pan-and-zoom view. When the AI writes a diagram, it self-corrects unsupported syntax on its own.

Activity is now a primary view

Activity moves up into the main sidebar, right under "Today", with a blue badge showing your unread count. Opening it gives you a two-column dashboard: your notifications on the left and a time-grouped list of recently updated items on the right. "Mark all read" sits in the notifications header, and a "+" in the toolbar lets you create from here.

Archive a type

You can now archive a type from its panel's "..." menu. The type and its items drop out of every menu, picker, list, and search result right away, while existing items keep the type and show a muted "(archived)" label. Unarchive at any time to bring it back.

A cover illustration on meeting summaries

The meeting summary now opens with a wide pen-and-watercolour illustration, its scene drawn from what the meeting was about.

Agents know what time it is, wherever you are

AI agents are now timezone-aware. In chat, "today" and "yesterday" match your own calendar day, even across midnight or time zones. Scheduled routines get an explicit time zone, so a daily brief set to 09:00 in Oslo always lands on the right Oslo day.

  • Richer mentions in the editorInline mentions now carry a symbol that matches what they point to: a task's state, a person's avatar, an image thumbnail, or the item's type. Long titles truncate so the mention stays a tidy pill. Move between mentions with the arrow keys and open one in a peek panel, or modifier-click to open it in a new tab, window, or split. Docs
  • Task state at a glance, everywhereTask and workflow state now shows as one consistent icon wherever a task appears. It reflects the current state, and inside a custom workflow it fills like a pie as the task moves along your states. Click to change it, right-click for more, and it animates as it changes. Tasks
  • Reassign straight from the boardKanban cards now show the assignee's avatar on the trailing edge, with a dashed placeholder when no one is assigned. Click it to open a searchable people picker, type a name, and reassign without opening the card. The same picker backs the assignee chip in a task's detail view, so assigning works the same everywhere. Tasks
  • Meetings stay about the doc you pinnedWhen you pin a document to a meeting, the post-meeting wrap-up treats it as the strongest signal of what the meeting is about, and prefers updating that document over creating a new one. Meetings, Proposals and actions
  • Your voice agent picks up where you left offStopping the voice session, leaving, or reloading keeps the same voice agent. In the welcome session the agent even replays your earlier conversation, so it continues rather than starting over. Meetings, Agents

  • Calendar and integration sign-in opens in your browserOn the desktop app, connecting a calendar or an integration like GitHub now opens the sign-in page in your default browser, so passkeys and password managers work. Tana finishes up once the connection is active. Integrations, Apps
  • Meeting tiles show task state and doc typeItems shown on a meeting now carry helpful affordances: a task tile shows its state up front so you can complete it without opening it, and a plain document shows its kind, such as Canvas or Doc. Meetings, Tasks
  • Everything lives in the LibraryThe top-level Browse is now called Library. Anything that does not live in a space or on a meeting lives in your Library, and its location shows a book icon and a "Library" label you can click to jump straight there. Interface, Spaces and sharing
  • Meeting-focused LibraryNarrow the Library or Search to just meetings and you get a dedicated table sorted by most recent, with sub-filters for a time window (upcoming, today, or past) and attendees. Meetings, Interface
  • Proposals from connected agents open with contextWhen an agent connected through MCP sends you proposals, the chat now opens with a short recap of what it did and why, so you have the context to keep going instead of a bare set of proposal tiles. MCP, Proposals and actions

Fixes

  • Tidier video grid in callsThe video grid in a call now sizes tiles to keep them as large and square as possible and fills every slot, so four people get a clean two-by-two and wider stages no longer leave empty gaps next to the "+N more" tile. Meetings
  • Dragging a block into a list keeps its formattingDragging a paragraph, heading, or code block into a list now keeps its formatting and stays the same item, rather than flattening to plain text. Moves across a document are also safer: one that cannot complete leaves your content where it was. Docs
  • Losing access to a doc shows the right stateIf you lose access to a document you had open offline, your local copy is now cleared on your next interaction and you see the "Access denied" state, rather than an editable-looking copy whose edits quietly go nowhere. Docs
  • Right-clicking a Today tile no longer blanks itRight-clicking a tile on the Today feed no longer blanks the tile or its section. Home
  • Freshly uploaded images show right awayAn image you just uploaded no longer flashes an access-denied thumbnail while the rest of the app catches up. Docs
