Changelog

New models, faster workflows, and the occasional same-day fix. Everything we ship to Blend, as we ship it.

0.9.0

Clearer names for workflow inputs and outputs

Improvements

  • Workflow inputs and outputs have clearer names: the node for what people fill in is now called User Input, and the node for what your workflow returns is now called User Result.

Fixes

  • Workflow canvas swipes now stay inside the editor more reliably, instead of occasionally navigating backward or forward in your browser.
0.8.1

Fixes for adding files and run details

Fixes

  • Adding files from your library works again. Earlier today the picker could show an empty list.
  • Checking a workflow run through the API now includes its result and cost.
0.8.0

A clearer Library for your chats and media

Improvements

  • Your Library is easier to scan, with separate tabs for chats, media, and saved items, expandable previews, and quick links back into any chat.
  • In your Library, media now shows the whole image by default so nothing is cropped, with a toggle to fill the tile instead.
  • When you build a workflow with AI, Blendito handles complex multi-step edits more reliably.
  • When you build a workflow with AI, the canvas now arranges new steps into a tidy layout automatically as the assistant adds and connects them, instead of leaving them to overlap.
  • You can now compare prompt improvements across selected models, repeated improvement passes, and reasoning settings, with judge feedback tied to each model and pass.
  • Your workflow run history now shows a rich preview of each past run, its result, the original input, and any generated text, grouped by date, so you can find the run you want at a glance.
  • Options in a workflow step's model settings, like aspect ratio, now appear in alphabetical order so they are easier to scan.
  • When you build a workflow with AI, you can now choose between a super fast, balanced, or smarter model to match the job.
  • When you build a workflow with AI, you can now attach an image for the assistant to work from, on models that support images.
  • Downloading an image or video now saves it straight to your device with a progress bar, instead of opening in a new browser tab.
  • You can now download images directly from workflow previews, including expanded fan-out results.
  • Notifications now have a close button you can click to dismiss them, with a ring around it that counts down the time left before they disappear.

Fixes

  • Workflow run estimates now explain when a tool step needs a runnable tool selected.
  • The cost badge on a workflow step now shows the total for all of its runs, matching the run count, instead of the price of a single run.
  • When you build a workflow with AI, Blendito now asks its follow-up questions reliably, without the occasional error or pause before they appear.
  • Saved preferences and recent work now stick more reliably across refreshes.
  • When you share a workflow with specific people, the link in their invite email now opens the workflow correctly.
  • Notifications now match your light or dark theme, instead of always showing on a light background.
  • Expanded fan-out results now size to each image, so tall results no longer spill past their card or leave an empty gap at the bottom of the group.
  • Images you download now save with the correct file extension, so they open as an image instead of an unrecognized file.
  • Fetching a workflow run through the API now returns its generated images and files, along with what the run cost.
0.7.0

Sharper image prompts when you build with AI

Improvements

  • You can now let people running your published workflow edit a Batch step's list of values: connect a Published Input to the Batch, and runners can add, change, or remove items before they run it.
  • The price shown on a published workflow now updates live as runners add or remove list items, so the cost always matches what will actually run.
  • Published workflow inputs that drive a Batch list accept a list of values through the API, and the API reference marks them as lists with a matching example.
  • When you build a workflow with AI, image steps now get sharper, more detailed prompts written for you automatically.
  • When you build a workflow with AI, Blendito handles complex multi-step edits more reliably.
  • When you build a workflow with AI, the canvas now arranges new steps into a tidy layout automatically as the assistant adds and connects them, instead of leaving them to overlap.
  • You can now compare prompt improvements across selected models, repeated improvement passes, and reasoning settings, with judge feedback tied to each model and pass.
  • You can now download images directly from workflow previews, including expanded fan-out results.
  • Downloading an image or video now saves it straight to your device with a progress bar, instead of opening in a new browser tab.
  • Your workflow run history now shows a rich preview of each past run, its result, the original input, and any generated text, grouped by date, so you can find the run you want at a glance.
  • Options in a workflow step's model settings, like aspect ratio, now appear in alphabetical order so they are easier to scan.
  • When you build a workflow with AI, you can now choose between a super fast, balanced, or smarter model to match the job.
  • When you build a workflow with AI, you can now attach an image for the assistant to work from, on models that support images.
  • External agents can connect to Blend MCP with your existing API key, and every published workflow is available automatically.

Fixes

  • A workflow run no longer starts, or charges you, when a required input was left empty; you get a clear message naming the missing input instead.
  • Workflow run estimates now explain when a tool step needs a runnable tool selected.
  • The cost badge on a workflow step now shows the total for all of its runs, matching the run count, instead of the price of a single run.
  • When you build a workflow with AI, Blendito now asks its follow-up questions reliably, without the occasional error or pause before they appear.
  • Saved preferences and recent work now stick more reliably across refreshes.
0.6.0

Use several models in one generation step

Improvements

  • Running a single generation step across several models at once now shows all of their settings together, grouping the options that only apply to some models by which models they affect, so it's clear which setting belongs to which model.
  • Image generation now offers an Auto size: choose it and your result follows the orientation you describe in the prompt (a portrait or a wide landscape) instead of always coming out square.
  • The homepage now highlights content-creator workflows: turn one idea into a week of on-brand posts, repurpose a long piece into a multi-channel pack, or cut a long video into a titled clips pack.
  • The homepage use cases section is now interactive: scroll through the jobs Blend handles (fashion, legal, e-commerce, research, and more) and watch each job's workflow come together step by step.
  • Founding creators keep 100% of every run: the first 100 creators we onboard keep the full price of every run for life, even after the standard split kicks in.
  • Affiliate program: you now earn 20% of every subscription payment from the people you refer, for as long as they stay subscribed.
  • Workflow creators now price a published workflow as a percentage of each run, so the fee scales with how much a run actually uses instead of a single flat amount.
  • Published workflows now show clearer cost ranges before you run them, including variable steps and creator fees.
  • When you publish a workflow, you can now frame its cover image: zoom in or out, drag to reposition, and fill any empty space with a blur of the image or a solid color, so every cover looks the way you want across the marketplace.
  • You can now annotate the workflow canvas: add sticky notes, text, images, arrows, and frames to label, group, and explain a workflow without changing how it runs. Resize any annotation to fit, and grow a frame as large as you need to wrap a whole group of nodes.
  • Visit /new to jump straight into a fresh workflow, no need to open the workflow list and click New first.
  • When a generation step uses several models with similar names, hover any model label to see its full name.
  • You can now stop a workflow while it's running: hit Stop and the run halts, skipping any steps that haven't started yet.
  • When a step produces several results, hovering or selecting one now highlights the exact inputs that produced it and shows their prompts, so you can tell which model and prompt made each output, even while the other results are still generating.
  • The workflow builder chat is smoother: it keeps the newest reply in view as it streams, lets you start typing your next message while it's still working, and adds a button to jump back to the latest when you scroll up.
  • The Choose Output step is now easier to read: view each option full size, flip between them with a thumbnail strip, then pick the one to continue with.
  • The workflow editor now has quick access to Previous Run and Delete in the right-side tool rail.

Fixes

  • Republishing a shared workflow no longer accidentally removes existing recipients if you publish before the share list finishes loading.
  • Fixed a glitch where a workflow listed in more than one category could show up twice in the Discover spotlight.
  • Fixed a freeze in the workflow editor that could happen when adding or removing batch items, or when selecting certain nodes on the canvas.
  • Fixed a problem where a file or image chosen from your Library could fail to run in a workflow.
  • Fixed an error that could stop some published workflows from opening.
  • The chat prompt box is now wider, and it stays the same size whether you're starting a new chat or continuing a conversation.
  • The recent chats list in the sidebar now sizes itself to your window and zoom level, so it no longer leaves an awkward gap or gets cut off.
  • The What's new notification now appears only when there's a new update since you last saw it, instead of popping up again on every visit.
  • Reopening a workflow no longer leaves the editor stuck as if a run were still going, so you can start a new run right away.
  • When you run a workflow, image results now show at their real proportions instead of being cropped into a square, so wide or tall images are no longer cut off.
  • The page shown when you open a workflow that isn't shared with you now has the same header bar as the rest of the app, instead of looking unfinished.
  • Workflow result images no longer flash black while they load. A soft blurred preview now shows first and the full image fades in as you switch between a step's results.
  • Long conversations with the workflow builder assistant now save to your chat history reliably, so you can pick them back up later instead of losing the thread.
0.5.0

Workflow controls, batching, and clearer file inputs

Improvements

  • Workflow steps now have a Run and collapse button, so you can start a step and tuck it away in one click while it keeps running.
  • Collapsed workflow steps now keep their Run button, so you can run a step without expanding it first.
  • Workflow auto-arrange is now easier to reach and gives separate branches more breathing room.
  • Workflow file fields can now pick from files you've already uploaded, with file choices narrowed to what the field accepts.
  • Batch workflows that vary models now run once for each selected model and estimate costs more accurately.
  • The homepage now always appears in a light theme, no longer following your device's dark mode.
  • Workflow Batch rows now suggest more useful choices when you add another row, while still restoring the default after the list is cleared.
  • Changed the default chat model from Claude Sonnet 4.6 to Gemini 3.5 Flash.
  • You can now resize the Blendito chat panel to give the conversation more room, and it remembers your preferred width.
  • Blendito now keeps your recent chats, so you can reopen and continue a previous conversation on the same device.
  • Assistant tool results now open in clearer, purpose-built previews, with raw details still available when needed.
  • Workflow canvas selection now works across multiple steps, so you can copy, paste, move, or clear a group at once.
  • New Image to Prompt step: add an image and get back a detailed prompt that recreates its subject, composition, lighting, and style.

Fixes

  • When a workflow node run fails, it now shows a clear error message in its output area instead of unexpected raw text.
  • You can now move between a workflow node's previous runs even when one of them failed.
  • Tool errors now stay visible when a tool result is expanded.
  • Images uploaded to a workflow's published inputs now reappear correctly after you reload the editor.
  • Workflow steps that don't finish no longer leave the Run button stuck.
  • Workflow connections now explain more clearly when an input cannot be reused with another field.
  • Batch workflow results no longer duplicate completed runs after a step finishes.
  • The Batch node no longer shows a results section, it only repeats a setting to create multiple runs.
0.4.0

Faster workflow building and better previews

Expand a step's results into a gallery

When a workflow step produces many results at once, like a batch of generated images, open them all in a single view instead of clicking through them one by one. Hover any result to see which inputs created it, resize the gallery to fit more per row, and drag it anywhere on the canvas.

Improvements

  • Blendito now understands Collection nodes, LLM structured-output fields, and the latest workflow handles more reliably.
  • Workflow nodes can now be added directly from a connection handle, with compatible choices shown where you drop.
  • The What's new notification and update dialog are easier to scan, with clearer styling and fuller release details.
  • Choose Output nodes now show just the outputs themselves, making image and text choices easier to compare.
  • Workflow home now has a denser marketplace-style layout with spotlight picks, category badges, templates, and cleaner card actions.
  • Workflow delete confirmation is cleaner and no longer requires typing the workflow name.
  • Refreshed the logged-out homepage with a new landing page covering how Blend works, use cases, distribution, creator earnings, and pricing.
  • Blendito now gives workflow steps clearer names and keeps new workflows to one connected canvas whenever possible.

Fixes

  • Generated image previews now keep portrait and landscape proportions instead of cropping into a square.
  • Result previews now load reliably even when a step produces dozens of images at once.
  • Workflow connection menus now avoid showing choices that cannot work with the selected field.
  • Models with version numbers now appear in the expected order in the model selector.
  • Choose Output keeps your selection when the same choices are shown again.
  • Swiping across the workflow canvas no longer sends you back to the previous browser page.
  • Workflow steps no longer stay stuck showing a running animation after they have finished.
  • Workflow input labels now stay in place after you connect an input to another step.
0.3.0

Live batch streaming and workflow concept guides

Improvements

  • New Concepts section in the docs that explains the core workflow ideas in short, individually linkable pages: lists vs single values (and why a collection is a value, not a list until you batch it), data types and connection rules, and the difference between running a single node, a full workflow, and the Runner.
  • Improved workflow text previews with a wrap toggle in the full-screen editor, a tighter line-number gutter, and compact copy and expand controls for latest outputs.
  • Workflow canvas nodes now look more consistent, with aligned field labels, Advanced Settings chevrons, collapsed handles, and output cards across node types.
  • Workflow streaming now keeps up smoothly even on slower connections.
  • Assistant tools (web search, model consultations, image prompt engineering) hand their results back faster.
  • The collapsed sidebar is slimmer, with evenly aligned and consistently sized icons.
  • Development tabs now keep the branch or workspace label visible as you move through the app.

Fixes

  • Workflow node outputs now stream live even with many batch items running at once. Text no longer trickles in word by word or appears only after the whole run finishes.
  • Refreshing a workflow during a long run now keeps generated results visible instead of hiding them behind an interrupted-run message.
  • Recent chats no longer run into the screen edge on mobile.
0.2.0

Collections, sharing, and a sharper workflow builder

Collections

Create a collection of images or files once, then reference that same list across multiple requests instead of re-adding everything each time. Pull a collection straight into a workflow with the new Collection node.

Reuse files you've already uploaded

File uploads now work the same everywhere you add files, and you can pick from files you've already uploaded instead of uploading them again.

Share workflows with specific people

Share a published workflow with specific people instead of only making it fully public or private: click Publish and add their email. Anything shared with you shows up under Shared with me.

A clearer way to publish

The Workflow publish dialog has been redesigned around organized section tabs, with a live "try it" panel for your workflow's API so you can publish and test your endpoint in one place.

Improvements

  • Workflow result preview and run history are now combined into a single card.
  • Drag nodes straight from the dropdown controls onto the canvas.
  • Dragging nodes no longer drops the frame rate, even on nodes with a lot of text in them.
  • Bring your own key is now available to paid plans and as a BYOK-only subscription from Provider API Key settings.
  • Workflow page tabs are now animated and remembered in the URL.
  • Cleaner "Recent" date grouping in the sidebar.
  • Added full workflow documentation, including a complete node reference.
  • Updated the workflow docs to focus on Gen Canvas workflows, publishing, item fan-out, structured LLM outputs, and the published API output shape.
  • Batch workflow runs now move through their items with fewer unnecessary waits, keeping results in order.
  • The AI workflow builder now understands Collection nodes, LLM structured-output fields, and the latest workflow handles more reliably.
  • Sign-in and sign-up pages now load faster.
  • LLM workflow settings now use clearer response-format controls for choosing plain text, separate fields, or a list of similar items.
  • Workflow node result cards now show per-item status, consistent output and run navigation, and clearer estimated item counts before runs finish.
  • The plan picker now includes the BYOK plan, clearer credit-access copy, and helpful explanations for credit and feature rows.
  • Choosing a plan now opens the in-app payment form directly instead of showing an extra confirmation step.
  • Provider API Key settings now use the full plan comparison dialog for locked accounts instead of a BYOK-only upsell.
  • Model usage estimates in pricing now account for gifted credits and include video model estimates.
  • The sidebar upgrade button now animates continuously and speeds up on hover.

Fixes

  • Fixed a Send button that could silently stop working after a model change.
  • Long lines now wrap properly in the workflow text viewer.
  • Edges and output stay visible when a workflow node is collapsed.
  • Removed an incorrect login error message that could briefly appear after signing in.
  • Free accounts with previously saved provider keys no longer receive BYOK discounts or use those keys until BYOK is active.
  • Fixed a see-through sidebar panel on iOS Safari.
  • Workflow result previews now keep output-item selection, upstream nodes, connected result nodes, and highlighted batch rows in sync.
  • Image and video results with multiple items now keep flowing into connected result nodes.
  • Result nodes now show the correct upstream media preview.
  • Result cards are less likely to appear empty after batch and parallel runs finish.
  • Batch workflow runs now preserve every generated output when downstream nodes fan out over multi-item results.
  • Workflow runs with many image inputs no longer time out.
  • Workflow nodes no longer look stuck in a running state after their run has finished.
  • Workflow result previews now show the active output item instead of stacking every result together.
  • Workflow debug controls no longer overlap the selected-node result details button.
  • LLM workflow previews no longer collapse reasoning or reset expanded output while streamed text is still arriving.

Other

  • Retired the older model alias (friendly names) feature.

Improvements

  • Faster model switching in chat.
  • Workflows now remember the inputs from your last run.

Fixes

  • Long messages no longer overflow the composer.
