Release Notes - August 18th 2025

📦 Version 1.3.0

Here are the improvements we’ve made to Permit Guide:

✨ What’s New

  • New look and feel: We’ve improved and simplified the UI. The navigation bar now has fewer sections and pages are grouped more intuitively together. There is also a new home page to help you navigate Permit Guide. We’ve updated the styling across all the pages and everything looks and feels more modern.

  • We’ve also addressed some issues with our Analytics Charts where there were too many data series or charts were unreadable. Everything is clean and back to normal now.

  • There is a new Email Dropbox section of Permit Guide. As we roll out the Outlook Plugin, this is where we will capture emails that have been sent with our Email Assistant to make everything transparent and auditable.

  • For admins, there are also settings you can configure for the Email Dropbox feature, including regenerating a BCC email address, setting a retention policy, and creating a “never log” list of email addresses that might be on sensitive email threads.

We’ve also improved the Chat Assistant AI model under the hood

  • Sped up generation time by simplifying the architecture and changing the AI model

  • Increased accuracy and improved assistant behavior by updating the prompt with more domain knowledge and instructions
