Recordings
A fresh week, a fresh batch of improvements - all designed to make analysis smoother, onboarding clearer, and insights more trustworthy. Let’s dive in 👇
Home page helps users craft their first prompts 🎉
Starting a new chat is now instantly intuitive.
The homepage presents organized prompt categories - from Marketing & CX to User Research - each revealing ready-to-use templates in alphabetical order.
Users can even add their own categories, making the first step into AI-powered analysis faster and less overwhelming.

More Reliable Auto-Narrowing in Chat 🎉
Focused questions now return truly focused answers.
We improved how chats select and narrow data based on tags, ensuring it looks exactly at the slice of feedback you intended - not adjacent topics.
What’s improved:
More accurate tag matching for targeted questions
Reduced over- or under-narrowing
Ongoing quality checks to maintain precision over time
When you say “only look at onboarding feedback,” the system really does.
Clearer Cluster Descriptions 🎉
Cluster descriptions now read like humans speak, not how machines think.
They remain technically accurate but are now far easier to scan, understand, and present - especially when moving from exploration to summary.
More Objective, Fact-Based Highlights 🎉
Highlights now state exactly what was said - no emotional tone, no interpretation.
This shift means more reliable insight across Labs, search, and chat, and a cleaner foundation for every downstream analysis.
Refreshed Bar Charts in Labs 🎉
Our updated charts now look calmer, cleaner, and more consistent with the interface:
Softer, neutral colors
All values visible by default
A smoother visual balance for quick interpretation
Charts that illuminate insights, not overshadow them.

Prettier graphs 🎉
Graphs introduced in chat last week have been refined visually and now blend seamlessly into the overall NEXT design - polished, readable, and delightful to use.

New File Upload Documentation 🎉
We’ve released streamlined, end-to-end documentation for recording uploads via REST API.
Endpoints are clearer, steps are consistent, and examples are ready to copy/paste — reducing friction for anyone programmatically sending files into NEXT.
