What's New This Week: 9-16 October 2026

post-thumb

Auto is now the default agent on your workspace dashboard, available to everyone. It can read your previous conversations, create agents and skills, and help you get work done. That puts a starting point for your next task on the dashboard, with your earlier conversations available for context. You don’t have to start from scratch each time.

For new sign-ups, getting started now begins with their industry and everyday apps. Autohive uses those choices to suggest jobs to automate and set up a first agent, so they don’t have to begin with a blank page. Instagram also gains carousel and mixed media posts, with more dependable uploads for when a single image isn’t enough.

Everything We Shipped This Week

🚀 New Features

  • Auto: Auto is now the default agent on your workspace dashboard and is available to everyone. It can read your previous conversations, create agents, create skills, and help you get work done.
  • Gemini 4 Argon: Gemini 4 Argon is now available on the platform.
  • New onboarding: New sign-ups now pick their industry and everyday apps, and Autohive suggests jobs to automate and sets up their first agent for them.
  • Instagram carousels and mixed media: The Instagram integration now supports carousel posts and mixed media posts, with more dependable uploads.

✨ Improvements

  • Global Search now reaches more of the app, including Plan settings, Plan integrations, Plan skills, My Marketplace, Achievements, Billing, Upgrade plan and Chat channels (where enabled for your plan).
  • Browser notifications now arrive as quiet system notifications instead of an on-screen toast, so they stay out of your way. In-app notification sounds are unchanged.
  • The Gmail integration now gives agents cleaner email text, smaller default pages of results and dependable paging through long emails and threads.
  • Marketplace listing categories now load much faster.
  • Integration connection cards now show their icons with more breathing room in dark mode.

🐛 Bug Fixes

  • Scrolling now works smoothly when you view the agents that use a particular integration.
  • The “someone is viewing” message now appears above the old chat pop-up, so it is always visible.
  • Coming back to Autohive after being away for a minute or so now lets you scroll back through older messages as expected.

That’s this week’s roundup. Try Auto from your dashboard when you’re ready to get started on your next task.
