Pigment's Agents break out of single applications and start reading your spreadsheets.

◆Current state
The Agents are the story: Modeler and Analyst now launch from the homepage and hold one conversation across multiple Applications, with the Analyst comparing Metrics across them and handling Board search. Days earlier, the Modeler gained the ability to build a Pigment model — data, Blocks, formulas, and Boards — from a dropped XLSX file, with multi-file uploads of PDFs, CSVs, and images. The rest of the run is planning-platform craft: metric diffing, live deployment progress, selective Metric data sync across Test & Deploy environments, and a steady stream of View Template and chart formatting controls.
◆Where it's heading
Pigment is moving its Agents from assistants scoped to one Application into a workspace-level layer that can see and act across the whole model estate. Pairing that with Excel ingestion targets the actual starting condition of most planning customers, whose current model is a spreadsheet. Meanwhile the environment tooling — deployment visibility and configuration data kept in sync between test and production — reads as a platform maturing for customers who now treat their Pigment models as software.
◆Prediction
With Agents workspace-wide and able to construct models from files, the next step is putting them inside the change-management path — proposing model edits that flow through Test & Deploy rather than landing directly. Expect the Analyst's cross-Application reach to extend into scheduled or triggered analysis rather than only chat-initiated questions.

  1. 15d ago

    🎉 Spot differences between Metrics instantly

    A Show Values As option surfaces where cells differ against Previous, Next, or specific Items, or between two similar Metrics, rendered as Boolean flags in the Metric. Aimed at exactly the moment a modeler is validating a structure or formula change before it ships.

    📢 Know the moment your Agent replies

    A count badge on AI Chats and blue dots on unread conversations flag when the Agent has replied. Housekeeping that follows from Agents becoming long-running enough to walk away from, but no change to what they can do.

  3. 21d ago

    🎉 Track deployment progress in real time

    Deployments show a live progress bar on the target environment's page. Straightforward operational visibility, and useful precisely because the deployments carrying Metric configuration data have gotten heavier.

    ✨ Your Agents just went Workspace-wide

    ⚡ SPARK

    The Agents stop being a per-Application helper and become a workspace-level surface, which is the change that makes the Modeler's file-ingestion work matter. Read together with the XLSX upload from days earlier, Pigment is assembling a path from a customer's spreadsheets to a connected model without a manual build.

    🎉 Improve your chart readability

    Independent font sizing for data labels, axis labels, and legends with an optional sync setting, plus more X-axis label lines. Presentation control for boards that get shown to executives, continuing the steady View Template and formatting work.

    🎉 Keep Metric data in sync

    Selected Metrics can be kept in sync so their data travels with deployments, which matters for configuration data like business rules, mapping tables, and model parameters. Recognizes that some Metric content is configuration rather than data, and should move with the model.
