Simplebooklet is rebuilding its core around true HTML rendering and built-in AI agents.
Simplebooklet ships a monthly feature drop and is in a substantive build phase. Two structural moves stand out: rebuilding the page-conversion engine to render true HTML/CSS instead of page screenshots, and adding a built-in set of AI agents that act on a user's content. Around them sit steady additions — BrandKit for automatic brand consistency, message popups, and expanded account limits.
Air keeps embedding everywhere and stacking AI models into Canvas — DAM as a creative-ops hub.
Air is a creative asset-management platform that has grown into a broader creative-operations hub. Two arcs dominate recent releases: distribution — embedding Air into tools teams already use (Premiere Pro, Shopify, WordPress, a Chrome extension, and Make.com alongside Zapier and N8N) — and generation, turning its Canvas into an AI image and video studio with a rotating catalog of models. Core review and scale work continues in parallel.

Around them sit steady additions — BrandKit for automatic brand consistency, message popups, and expanded account limits.
The product is moving from a flipbook viewer toward a content platform: real HTML rendering improves quality and developer-grade fidelity, while AI agents and BrandKit reduce the manual setup that previously gated its features. The framing around a 'Reader's Journey' suggests engagement and conversion analytics are the throughline.
Expect the next drops to extend the AI agents into more content tasks and to build on the new HTML rendering with richer interactivity, alongside continued monthly cadence.

Core review and scale work continues in parallel.
Air is positioning as the connective layer for creative work: assets live in Air but are reachable from every adjacent tool, and Canvas increasingly generates net-new content rather than just storing it. The recent model additions favor faster, cheaper variants (Nano Banana 2 Lite, Seedance 2.0 Mini), suggesting a focus on cost and speed for high-volume generation over frontier capability.
Expect more embed points and marketplace integrations, plus continued fast-follow additions of new image and video generation models into Canvas as they become available.
