What's new

  • From WebSockets to SSE: Grais now streams over server-sent events, so every response starts quicker, survives refreshes, and wraps up cleanly across the API and Chrome extension—no setup required on your side.
  • Instagram now supported: Connect Instagram inside Grais without extra tooling. Open Instagram DMs in your browser and link Grais to your next conversation.
  • Planner clarifies next steps: Planner checklists keep the latest run front and center, helping the agent outline what needs to happen to reach your goal while Quick Picks suggest smarter follow-ups.
  • Chrome extension controls stay organized: Pause auto-scroll when you need to read, jump back with a single click, and keep drafts scoped to each conversation so work remains tidy.
  • Clearer operational signals: Unified alerts, searchable error messages, and clearer activity badges make it obvious when something needs your attention.

Why it matters

  • SSE keeps streams connected even when the network blips, so you never lose context if you refresh or swap tabs.
  • Instagram joins the existing channel lineup, so teams can respond in DMs without changing tools.
  • Planner and Chrome updates surface the next best action where you work, reducing back-and-forth to stay organized.

Try it out

  • Start a long-running stream in the Chrome extension—everything already runs on SSE, so you can refresh or tab away without losing progress.
  • Connect Instagram from the Channels page, open Instagram DMs in your browser, and let Grais guide the next conversation while the planner keeps every step aligned.
  • Update the Chrome extension and run a long stream; the updated controls keep context steady from start to finish.
  • Open Chrome extension settings to enable Planner and keep its checklist surfaced while you work.

Behind the scenes

  • Support tooling now flags slowdown before anyone feels it, so help arrives faster when a stream hiccups.
  • Planner data refreshes in the background, keeping checklists accurate without manual resets.
  • The WebSocket-to-SSE migration happened automatically, so you’re already on the faster path with nothing to install.
