Over the past two weeks, we’ve been at work picking through ELLA with a fine-toothed comb before we get back to new feature development — over 100 individual bugfixes, tweaks, and improvements. Some of these fixes have been rolling out over the last few weeks already, while others were included in a big push today.
We’ve been focusing heavily on the experience advisors feel when using sensemaking. In particular, we’ve been focusing on:
Speed — research across business factors and documents should hang less and finish sooner.
Reliability — chat send/stop/mic states are more consistent, long replies scroll more cleanly, and interrupted streams are more likely to resume cleanly if your connection hiccups.
If Sensemaking used to feel “stuck” mid-turn or the send button flickered the wrong state, this release targets that. The experience using Sensemaking continues to be a focus, so please share your feedback with how you’re using AI chat.
You can now thumbs-up or thumbs-down Sensemaking replies, and optionally leave a short reason. That feedback helps us improve answer quality without training on your client content.
There’s also a workspace setting to allow manual quality review of anonymized AI responses. When it’s off, vote buttons stay disabled with a clear path to settings. When it’s on, you can rate answers in context — and the quality-review prompt no longer sits as a permanent banner once you’ve already consented.
AI inputs and outputs are never used for model training, with or without this setting.

Fact Finding

Deliverables

Trust & Reliability
