Changelog

​

macOS in-app self-update fix

• macOS updates now install. Earlier builds could download an update, show Restart & update, relaunch, and still be on the old version. Bundled libraries shipped read-only, so the macOS updater could not clear the download’s quarantine attribute and aborted the install. Libraries are now writable, with a build guard so it cannot regress. If you were stuck on 2.4.1 or 2.4.2, updating to 2.4.3 applies cleanly. See in-app updates.
• Updater errors are now logged instead of silenced, so any future update problem is diagnosable.

​

Stealth dock fix and key validation

• Undetectable no longer shows a Dock icon. In stealth mode the macOS Dock icon could intermittently reappear when the dashboard was shown; it now stays hidden.
• API key validation no longer hangs. Entering an OpenAI, Deepgram, AssemblyAI, or Anthropic key and clicking Save & Validate or Test Connection could spin forever if the network stalled. Validation now times out with a clear “Could not reach …” message, so the key can be saved once reachable.

​

Streaming Ask, saved chats, and macOS self-update

• Ask streams now. Answers type out token-by-token in both per-meeting Ask and Ask across all meetings - no more waiting for the whole reply. The input sits at the bottom like a normal chat.
• Ask chats are saved. Each meeting keeps its own Ask conversation, restored when you reopen the session. Ask across all meetings now supports multiple chats - start a new one, switch, rename, or delete - each auto-titled from your first question. A turn is never lost if you navigate away mid-answer; generation finishes in the background and the full answer is saved.
• Microsoft Teams 1:1 calls are now detected for auto-start, not just scheduled meetings.
• macOS updates in-app, like Windows. Now that builds are notarized, click Update now to download and Restart & update to install - no more grabbing a disk image by hand. (Existing 2.4.0 Macs get 2.4.1 through the installer one last time; in-app self-update takes over from 2.4.1 onward.)

​

Meeting intelligence, after the call

• Ask your meetings. A new Ask tab on every session answers questions from that call’s transcript, and a global Ask across all meetings searches your whole history with cited sources. It’s conversational with memory - follow-ups build on earlier answers, and older turns are summarized (never dropped) so long chats keep their context.
• Action items. Every session now surfaces a structured action-items checklist - task, owner, and deadline when they were spoken.
• Follow-up email draft. One click turns a session into a ready-to-send recap email. Drafts are saved with the session.
• Talk ratio. See your You-vs-Them speaking share live in the overlay and on each session.
• Export. Save any session recap as Markdown or PDF, with optional transcript.
• Auto-start on meeting detection. Raven can notice a Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, or Webex meeting and offer to start - set it to prompt, start automatically, or off in Settings. No bot ever joins your call.
• Smarter notes. Your mode’s note-template instructions now guide the summary, so notes follow the structure you set.

• Onboarding now asks for permissions before API keys, and saves your wizard step and keys - Quit & Reopen (e.g. after the macOS Screen Recording restart) resumes where you left off instead of wiping keys.
• The Mac update modal no longer offers a version you already have (same-version GitHub feed no longer shows “Raven X is ready”).
• Send Feedback (user menu and About) opens a form - no GitHub account required. Docs point to docs.useraven.ai.

• Fixed sessions that stayed Untitled with a blank summary after a call. Notes now stream at the model’s max output so reasoning can’t eat the whole reply, and missing notes are retried on boot.
• Notes generation stays on the fast, cheap models (Haiku / Luna); live assist is unchanged with the full model catalog and effort settings.

• Packaged the tray-icon assets into the Windows and macOS installers so the system-tray icon shows up reliably.

• First open-source, BYOK desktop release for Windows and macOS. Publishing it created the GitHub update feed (latest.yml / latest-mac.yml) so installed copies update cleanly.

• Reliability: graceful handling of client disconnects during AI streaming, plus internal telemetry and stability fixes.

• Hotfix for a real-time sync endpoint that could return errors on certain requests.

• Refreshed the Anthropic (Claude) and OpenAI model lineups to the current generation.
• Made the interview coaching mode more general-purpose, and hardened the app under load testing.

• Windows installers are now Authenticode-signed via the release pipeline, reducing SmartScreen friction.
• Dependency and security cleanup.

• Added anonymous usage telemetry with clear in-app links to the Privacy Policy and Terms. First release with real users.
• Observability and reliability improvements.

• Restored automatic GitHub Release creation in the publish pipeline.

• Fixed a fatal crash when the app booted twice on macOS.
• Launched the documentation site at docs.useraven.ai.

• Enabled macOS notarization for smoother Gatekeeper installs, with update-UX polish.

• macOS updates now quit and install correctly, with immediate download feedback.

• Per-account database isolation for safer multi-user and multi-environment use.

• Production-grade update experience: user-initiated downloads, an update button that reflects the real update state, and a macOS auto-update (zip) target.

• Reproducible native echo-cancellation (AEC) build pipeline with versioned artifacts.
• Cache-first profile loading, consolidated IPC error handling, and wired-up session summaries.

• Packaging and version bump.

• First build: a live transcript tab in the overlay with auto-scroll, a six-step onboarding with an overlay tour, a redesigned Settings screen, and broad security hardening plus a large automated test suite.
