Product Release Notes - August 2025

New Features

 

New: Increased TPM Limits for All Projects

All AI projects in CreateAI Builder now support higher Tokens Per Minute (TPM) limits to reduce rate limit errors.

  • Older and New projects have been retroactively upgraded to 750K TPM.
  • Users can still request increases up to the max limit if needed.
  • This update ensures smoother performance across all bots, especially those created before recent capacity improvements.

New: Custom AI Response Display Name

Builders can now customize the AI response name shown to end users when interacting with a project. A new field, “AI Response Display Name”, has been added to the Edit View of a project. If left blank, the default display name will be “AI Response”. 

Viewers of the AI experience will now see either the custom name (if set) or the default  replacing the previous generic label like “Bot”.

This change replaces the old “Bot Name” field and helps clarify the AI’s persona in a more user-friendly and  jargon-free way.

 

New: AI Project Privacy Disclaimer

All AI projects now display a standard privacy message:

“By using this AI project, you acknowledge and agree to these terms.”

Clicking “these terms” opens a modal with ASU’s data privacy details, including what’s collected (inputs, outputs, and user info) and how it may be used. Project creators can still add a custom disclaimer, which now appears below the standard notice.

 

New: Improved Model Selection + Default to Nova Micro

The model selection menu has been redesigned to help users choose the right model with ease. All new projects now default to Nova Micro, a fast, cost-effective model ideal for most use cases. Users can still change models at any time.

This update supports CreateAI Builder’s expansion to all ASU faculty and staff with access to powerful models like Nova Micro, GPT-4o mini, and 4.1 mini.

 

New: Viewer Sidebar Toggle

Builders can now control whether viewers see the conversation sidebar in their AI project.

A new “Allow users to see their conversation history” toggle is available in the Edit Web App settings. When turned off, the sidebar and its toggle icon are completely hidden for viewers.
Toggle is on by default and has no impact on the builder view. This is ideal for classroom projects, quizzes, and other focused experiences.

 

 New: Google Drive Integration

You can now import files directly from your ASU Google Drive into CreateAI Builder. This makes it easier to use your documents for training, citations, and AI project building.

Usability Enhancements:

  • Updated Dashboard Hero: The dashboard hero has been refreshed for clarity and alignment with ASU branding

     

  • Updated: “Neurabot” has been renamed to “Friendly AI Explainer” to better reflect its purpose and make it more accessible to new users.

  • Updated: “Ask me bot!” is now simply “Ask me!”, a more natural and user-friendly way to describe its role as an interactive assistant.
    These changes are part of a broader effort to remove technical jargon like “bot” from template names and promote clarity in the user experience.

  • Note: A few legacy references to “bot” remain and will be cleaned up in an upcoming release.

Resolved Issues

  • Fixed: Sidebar tabs unclickable after using Share link

     : Fixed an issue where navigating to a project via the “Share” link from the Projects list made the sidebar tabs (e.g. BasicKnowledgeBehaviors) unresponsive. This behavior occurred on both desktop and mobile and required manually editing the URL to restore functionality. Tabs are now fully clickable regardless of how the user enters the project page.

  • Fixed: Permission dropdown for editors misleading
    Editors on a project previously saw the option to add or promote other users to "Editor" but attempting to do so failed silently or with an error. 

    The dropdown now correctly limits editors to only assigning "Can view" permissions, preventing confusion or unauthorized actions.
    Owners still retain full permission controls.
