Until now, you could remove an Assistant attachment only before sending it. Sent attachments now have a delete button. Deleting one removes the stored file and its extracted text, and the Assistant stops using that file's content in later replies. A deleted attachment shows as "Deleted" and can no longer be downloaded. Deleting an entire conversation now removes its attachments as well, and both actions ask for confirmation in an in-app dialog.

The Assistant now runs on a newer, faster model. In our evaluation suite, 26 of 29 test cases finished faster than before, so most questions and plate reports come back sooner.

Longer progress notes between tool calls may no longer appear while the Assistant works. Tool activity still shows, so you can see what it is doing.

Following a culture over days used to mean stepping through observations one at a time, with no way to share the change outside the app. The well and plate pages now have playback controls that step through observations as a looping timelapse, and you can save the result as an MP4 to share with colleagues and collaborators.

Details

• Playback controls sit in the well and plate toolbars. Play steps through observations as each image loads and loops, and it stops when you navigate elsewhere.
  

  

• Export timelapse is available for a well from the Image tab and for a plate from the Image tab or the Actions menu.

  

• A preview lets you choose the playback speed and a timestamp style (elapsed time, date and time, or none). Plate timelapses can also show well labels.
• The video is created in your browser and saved with your current brightness and contrast settings.
• Sharpen, the FFT filter and merged channels are not applied to the video, and the dialog tells you when one of them is on.

See how every well changed over time at a glance. Pick a baseline observation and Culture Monitor compares each well's morphology measurements against it, highlighting the wells that moved past the thresholds you set.

Details

• Choose the baseline observation, the metrics to compare and the thresholds that count as a change.
• Results appear as overlays on the plate and in well tooltips, and in box plots with reference values and Y-axis controls that match the plate's line graphs.

  

• Box plots label the wells that fall beyond the whiskers. Hover over or focus a label to see that well and its fold change, and close neighbours share one label that lists them all.
• Selected wells show as coloured dots in the box plot.
• Download the box plots as PNG images, with outlier labels and a legend of up to ten selected wells, or the comparison data as CSV.
• Comparisons are saved in your browser and restored when the observations still match. If the underlying analysis changes, Culture Monitor prompts you to recalculate.
