The cultures page filter bar now includes a Plate Format filter. Select one or more well formats (6, 12, 24, 96, or 384-well) from a checkbox menu to narrow down your plate list. Active filters display as removable pills alongside your other culture filters, and the filter is included in saved filters for reuse.
A new display mode toggle on the cultures page lets you switch between the default plate view (one row per plate) and a flat grouped view where each plate expands into individual culture rows showing key per-well details like confluence, status, cell line, and passage number. Culture-level filters apply within each plate group, and your display preference persists across sessions.
Users can now attach images and documents directly in the AI assistant composer. Upload plate images, data exports, and other files alongside your messages so the assistant can reason over them in context. Files are uploaded securely to cloud storage, and attachment chips remain visible in the conversation history so you can always see what was shared.
This feature is currently in early access — reach out to your account team to enable it.
As the AI assistant processes your requests, its intermediate reasoning steps now appear inline in the conversation. You can follow along as it queries data, runs analyses, and works through multi-step tasks — thinking steps are shown in a lighter style to distinguish them from the final response.
Multi-turn conversations are also displayed with clear separation between each exchange, making it easier to follow complex back-and-forth interactions.
The AI assistant panel can now be expanded to fill the screen for a more focused, distraction-free experience.
