Hey there! Welcome to another product update from the team at StackAI.

Here's what we shipped this month:

Big Features

OpenAI Web Search Built-In
Your LLM agents can now search the web natively using OpenAI's Responses API. No extra setup — just toggle it on and get grounded, up-to-date responses.


Expression Engine v2
We rebuilt data transformations with CodeMirror. Pick variables from a side panel, see previous node results, and get AI suggestions — all without memorizing syntax.


Custom Roles & Permissions
Enterprise-ready RBAC. Create custom roles, assign granular permissions, and manage exactly who can do what across your org.


SDLC Environments
Deploy workflows across dev/staging/prod with proper environment separation. Test before you ship.


Node Run Results
See exactly what each node returned during execution. Debug faster, understand flows better.


New Integrations

  • DocuSign — Document signing workflows with OAuth2

  • Missive — Email triggers and conversation management

  • OneNote OAuth2 — Native Microsoft authentication

  • Google Sheets — Find Row action

  • Slack — Add/remove reactions

  • Gmail — Append signatures to outgoing emails

  • AWS RDS — Update row action

  • Strapi — Custom admin login paths


Quality of Life

Autosave That Actually Works
Rebuilt from the ground up. Smarter debouncing, one request at a time, clear save status. No more lost work.


Drag-to-Connect
Drag from a node handle to instantly open the connection menu. Faster workflow building.


SharePoint Improvements
Dynamic file inputs, server-side site search, Excel files in Knowledge Bases. Enterprise SharePoint just works now.


Human-in-the-Loop
Agents can pause and ask humans for input mid-workflow. Perfect for approval flows and manual review steps.
