Version 3.2: Meet Atolla, Light and Dark Themes, and Smarter Alerting

November 4, 2026

Ask AI becomes Atolla, the app gets light and dark themes and a fresh look, and alerting gains a new board plus hold times, rate-of-change conditions, recovery notices, quiet hours, snooze, and escalation. This release also adds two-factor authentication, payload decoders, and richer Data Push controls.

Meet Atolla

Ask AI has a new name, a new look, and can do more across the app.

NEW Atolla: Ask AI is now Atolla, with an animated jellyfish mascot in place of the old icon. It breathes while idle, swims while it works, and bursts when a suggestion arrives. The launcher, chat header, and AI buttons carry the new name, such as Ask Atolla, Create dashboard with Atolla, and Investigate with Atolla, and fields Atolla fills are marked Suggested by Atolla.
Redesigned Chat Panel: The round Atolla launcher reveals Ask Atolla on hover or keyboard focus and opens the redesigned chat panel when selected. The panel is lighter, your messages sit in right-aligned bubbles, Atolla’s answers use the full width, and each step appears as it finishes before folding into a “Worked for N s” summary you can expand. Answers add Copy and Retry, Sources are collapsed, and the message box shows what Atolla can see along with your next message’s price.
Atolla Edits Widget Settings: Beyond layout, Atolla can now change a widget’s series colors, gauge threshold colors, title, minimum and maximum, time range, and options, listed on a card and applied with Apply this change.
Atolla Opens Pages: Atolla can open a page or start a create flow from anywhere, such as “open Boiler 1” or “start creating a device”. This covers Applications, devices, dashboards, Analytics, Alerts, Alert History, notification groups, Actions, Device Endpoints, Integrations, Systems, Tags, Reports and the settings pages. Create flows cover devices, integrations, alerts, tags, Systems, reports and dashboards. Atolla checks page access first.
Atolla Reads Reports and Actions: It can check report schedules, runs and email deliveries to explain which report failed and when. It recognises the Integrations, Application settings, User settings, Attributes and Endpoints pages, and each widget’s settings on a dashboard. Investigate with Atolla, alert answers and the Analytics AI report now use the notes on alert events.

Appearance & Themes

Make the app, and each dashboard, look the way you want.

NEW Light and Dark Themes: Settings > Preferences > Theme offers System, Light, and Dark. Your choice is saved to your profile and applies in every browser. Charts follow the theme, apart from series colors, and PDF export stays light.
NEW Dashboard Appearance: The Dashboard settings panel sets one look for everyone who opens a dashboard, including in fullscreen. Choose a preset (Calm, Wall display, Warm, Night, or Print), or set a background color or image, a pattern, and solid or frosted widgets with up to 90% transparency. Atolla can even propose a look with a preview you apply in one click.
A Fresh Look and Navigation: A new graphite sidebar, fonts, and icons, with Application menu items grouped under Monitor and Set up. New loaders, smoother animations, and an orange dot on Alerts while an Application has open alerts. Animations stop when your device asks for reduced motion.

Smarter Alerting

A new board to manage alerts, and far more control over when they fire and who hears about them.

NEW Threshold Alerts Board: Each Application’s Threshold Alerts page is now a board with card and list views. Counters for Total, Critical, Warning, Info, Healthy, Disabled, and Needs review filter the board, cards can be dragged into a shared layout, and the list view adds search, sorting, and column filters. An alert’s details show its recent events, with status changes, notes up to 5,000 characters, and a Change all action.
NEW Hold Time on Conditions: “Only alert if the conditions hold for” makes a threshold alert wait from 5 seconds to 24 hours before it fires. A reading that no longer meets the conditions resets the timer.
NEW Rate-of-Change Conditions: A condition can compare by rate of change, firing when a reading rises, falls, or changes by more than a value or percentage within 1 minute to 24 hours, such as 5 °C in 10 minutes. Events and emails show how far the value moved and from what.
NEW Recovery Notices and Clear Values: “Notify when it recovers” sends one message when an alert’s conditions stop being met, and “Clears at” gives a condition a separate clear value so it stays met until the reading passes it.
NEW Quiet Hours and Snooze: Quiet hours hold back email, SMS, and payload push during a set window on chosen days and time zone. Snooze suppresses an alert’s external notifications for anywhere from 1 hour to 1 week, from the board, an Alert History event, or a link in alert emails.
NEW Escalation: Add up to two steps, each 1 to 1,440 minutes after an alert is sent. If the event is still New, the alert also goes to that step’s users, notification groups, and up to 20 external contacts. Moving the event out of New stops escalation.

Security & Access

NEW Two-Factor Authentication: A new Two-factor authentication section supports an authenticator app, passkeys, and 10 single-use recovery codes, with a second step on password and magic link sign-in. Account administrators can require two-factor authentication for all members.
MQTT With TLS First: New MQTT Endpoints default to MQTT with TLS, now listed first, and Endpoints show a TLS or Plaintext badge. MQTT without TLS remains available.
Endpoint and Sign-In Protection: Endpoint details now include Regenerate password, and repeated wrong passwords or authenticator codes trigger a temporary pause on that sign-in method.

Devices & Data Ingestion

New ways to decode, control, and connect your devices.

NEW Payload Decoders: An Endpoint can turn binary or text messages into readings. Paste 3 to 10 sample messages as Hex, Base64, or Text, and optionally the vendor’s spec, and Atolla writes the decoder for you to check, test, and save. A draft costs 10 AI credits, charged only when it decodes every sample, and a saved decoder uses no AI per message. Works on MQTT, HTTPS, and WSS Endpoints.
NEW Data Push Controls: The Data Push widget adds Toggle, Slider, Radio buttons, and Checkboxes. Controls show the last value sent, revert on a failed send, and can ask for confirmation first. Atolla can draft them for you.
Subscribe for Custom Integrations: Custom MQTTS and WSS integrations now default to Subscribe, keeping the connection open and receiving messages continuously, and picking up new devices and fields without running the sample again. Custom integrations also accept TLS certificates and an optional Client ID.
Weather Location Search: The Weather integration’s Location step now searches by city, address, or postal code and fills in the coordinates, and moving the location keeps the device and its history.
Smarter Connectivity Timeouts: For devices not fed by a pull integration, the automatic connectivity timeout now adapts to each device’s usual reporting interval, so devices that report infrequently are no longer marked disconnected between reports.

Analytics, Credits & Performance

Web Research for Every Account: When the help pages do not cover a question, Atolla can run a web search for 20 credits and show the sources behind its answer.
AI Credit Updates: Generate insights on Analytics now costs 1 credit, and the star icon shows the estimated cost of a message and draft before you run it.
Clearer Analytics Periods: Last 7, 30, and 90 Days and This year now start at midnight in your time zone and count today as a full day.

Maps

Map Widget Updates: On Map and World Map widgets, clicking an alert-linked icon opens the alert’s details. A new Color Theme control sets Map, World Map, and Tracking Map widgets to Light or Dark or follows the app, and a new Default Icon Size control sets the icon size on Map and World Map widgets.

Language

Expanded Japanese Support: Much more of the app is now translated into Japanese, including the Analytics AI report, connectivity messages, Simulator statuses, and more, with each English label mapped to a single Japanese term across the app, emails, and SMS. Help pages are now available in Japanese with Japanese screenshots.

Version 3.1: New Plans, AI Credits, and New Widget Types

October 7, 2026

New plans with monthly AI credits, new widget types, faster dashboard edits with Ask AI, and fixes across charts, gauges, and integrations.

Plans & Billing

A clearer set of plans, with AI usage built in.

NEW Plans and Billing: Billing is back in Account Settings with five plans: Free, Starter, Business, Professional, and Enterprise. Each lists its price, monthly AI credits, data retention, and included services, and custom integrations are available on every plan. When your sign-up free trial ends, your account moves to the Free plan, with reminders beforehand.
NEW AI Credits: Ask AI shows the credit cost to send your next message and your remaining balance. Research and other actions may use additional credits.

Dashboards & Widgets

New widget types and faster edits, with Ask AI doing more of the work.

NEW Switch Widget: Show on/off readings as switch-style indicators. A new Multi Status style lists boolean attributes one per row with wording such as On/Off or Open/Closed, or words of your own.
NEW Richer Label Widgets: A Label widget can now carry formatted text and an image with no device behind it, for notes, headings, and instructions on a dashboard.
NEW Daily and Weekly Charts: Chart and XY-Chart widgets can summarize readings by day or by week, covering up to 90 days in your own time zone, on screen and in PDF export.
NEW Edit Dashboards With Ask AI: Ask for several changes at once, such as renaming, moving, or removing widgets. Ask AI lists every change on one card and applies them together when you choose Apply. It can also put a tag on a device for you.
Better Charts and Gauges: Charts drafted by Ask AI start with readable defaults, and new widgets are sized and placed to suit their type. Gauges gain a Zero-based direction for negative readings and an editable first color threshold. The Alert List widget counts only open events and lets you change an event’s status in place, and the Device List widget pages through every device.

Alerts

Spot open alerts faster and drive them from your tag values.

NEW Open Alerts at a Glance: Inside an Application, devices and Systems with open alerts show a red count badge. Click it to open the matching Alert History.
NEW Tags in Calculations: Alert calculations can use a numeric tag as a variable, so changing the tag changes the alert within about a minute. Chart calculations can use any numeric tag in the Application or account.
Alerts and Devices: Alerts and Alert History are now managed inside each Application, and the account-wide Alerts and Alert History pages have been removed. Deleting a device warns you about the alerts that depend on it, notification groups accept SMS-only contacts, and anomaly detection now works for devices fed by integrations and for devices that report rarely.

Ask AI

Ask AI Understands Units: Ask AI converts thresholds between supported units and compares them with each device’s readings. If the unit is unclear, it asks you to clarify.
Web Research: Web research is being turned on for all accounts, so Ask AI can look things up and show the sources behind its answers.

Integrations

More Control and Clarity: Change a pull integration’s sync interval from Edit settings. The Verify step explains when a provider still needs authorization, and an integration becomes Active only once real data arrives.

Help & Language

Easier to Learn: Most pages now have a help icon beside their title, the main help pages have been rewritten, and many more screens are translated into Japanese.

Devices

EnOcean Devices Register Individually: EnOcean sensors now register as separate devices. If you have widgets or alerts linked to the old shared device, update them to use the individual sensors.

Version 3.0: NEQTO.ai Becomes an Autonomous Operational Intelligence Platform

September 22, 2026

This release marks NEQTO.ai’s evolution into an Autonomous Operational Intelligence Platform: turn device data into dashboards, reports, and answers with less setup. NEQTO.ai 3.0 adds AI guidance to everyday tasks, helps you investigate alerts, and gives you more ways to see and share what is happening across your devices.

AI Assistant & Guided Setup

Get where you’re going faster, with the assistant helping at each step.

NEW Get Started With Guidance: Choose what you want to do, or ask a question, in the new welcome panel. Guided setup helps you connect devices, bring in online data, or try a simulation, with help available as you go.
NEW Build Dashboards With AI: Choose your devices and let the assistant propose a dashboard. Review the suggested widgets, refine the plan, and create a view that fits your needs. Suggestions can also help you decide what to do when a new device starts reporting.
NEW Describe What You Need: Draft alerts, widgets, integrations, reports, and simulator setups in plain language. The assistant helps fill in the details while preserving your edits, and you review and save the result. You can also ask for help creating calculations for widgets and alerts.
NEW Continue the Conversation: The assistant can remember preferences you choose to share. Where web research is enabled, it can also offer a search with your confirmation and show the sources behind its answer.

Alerts

Understand what happened, and see exactly where alerts go next.

NEW Investigate Alerts With Context: Explore the readings leading up to an alert, possible causes, and suggested next checks. Start from alert history or a notification, and keep the findings with the event for future reference.
NEW Review Outbound Actions in One Place: See where alert-triggered data is sent and review the latest outcome. Preview a message without sending it, or send a test message to check the destination.
Clearer Alert Setup: An updated editor organizes alert details, conditions, notifications, and outbound messages into separate tabs. The menu entry formerly called Alerts & Actions is now Threshold Alerts.

Reports

Send the right information to the right people, automatically.

NEW Share Reports on Your Schedule: Create one-time reports or schedule email delivery. Choose the devices and information your team needs, then share the results in PDF or CSV format. Report history helps you check delivery and revisit past reports.

Maps & Visualization

More ways to see where your devices are and what they’re doing.

NEW See More on Your Maps: Display devices on a world map, or use the redesigned floor-plan map to spot active alerts. Drag pins into place, filter the view, and inspect readings without leaving the map.
Better Tracking Maps: Use calculations for location coordinates, see warnings about invalid locations, and export tracking information to PDF or CSV. Map controls and the legend are easier to use in full-screen views.

Integrations

NEW Connect Building Energy Data: Bring property data from ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager into NEQTO.ai through a guided connection process.

Everyday Improvements

More Useful Device Information: Connection monitoring better reflects how often your integrations collect data. Clearer messages help you identify incomplete imports and mapping problems, and device details now show firmware names and versions separately.
A More Consistent Interface: Updated controls, dialog spacing, and mobile layouts make everyday tasks easier to navigate. The assistant also includes improvements to Japanese text, keyboard navigation, and screen-reader support.

Version 2.5: Weather Data, Live Tracking Maps, and PDF Reports

August 25, 2026

This release brings live weather into your dashboards, adds real-time GPS tracking maps and richer chart types, lets you export dashboards as polished PDF reports, and makes data ingestion far more flexible and resilient.

Integrations & Data Ingestion

Connect more sources, ingest data more flexibly, and see exactly what is coming in.

NEW Weather Integration: Pull live weather data as a first-class integration, backed by a licensed commercial weather API for dependable, ongoing pulls.
Flexible MQTT Topics: MQTT endpoints now accept the standard NEQTO topic structure plus supported vendor-native formats. Topic templates extract device identity while broker credentials keep each message tied to the correct endpoint.
Real-Time Ingestion Feedback: Data source and device pages now report incoming payloads as they arrive, showing whether each was accepted or rejected.
Clearer Integration Health: Test Connection now distinguishes rejected credentials, endpoints that accept invalid credentials, and checks that could not be completed. Disabled integrations also show why they were deactivated.

Visualizations & Dashboards

New widgets, new chart types, and finer control over how everything looks.

NEW Tracking Map: Plot GPS-reporting devices live on Google Maps (roadmap, satellite, hybrid, or terrain). Draw each device’s trajectory as a plain trail, dots, a time fade, or a speed heatmap, with per-device speed and heading readouts.
NEW Dashboard PDF Reports: Export selected dashboard widgets as a portrait or landscape PDF, with summary or detailed sections, report metadata, charts, statistics, and tables.
NEW Device List Widget: A dashboard widget that lists your devices, with application-scoped access control on every read.
NEW Alert List Widget: A dashboard widget that summarizes alert activity at a glance.
NEW Fan Chart: Client-side forecasting with confidence bands, so you can visualize likely future ranges.
NEW Distribution Chart: Box and violin-style distribution modes for understanding the spread of your data.
NEW Related Dashboards: Device and Device System screens can now find every dashboard that uses the selected device or system, show device and widget counts, optionally include child systems, and open the matching dashboard directly.
Eight Gauge Styles: The Gauge widget now ships in eight forms (Classic, Progress arc, Numbered, Semicircle, Speedometer, Segmented, Linear, and Tank), so a tank or linear bar can stand in for a dial where that reads better.
Advanced Calculations for XY Charts: Each axis can now use its own equation and live preview, bringing XY Charts in line with the calculation editor on other chart widgets.
Improved XY Chart Editing: Adjust data points and date ranges without leaving the enlarged view, and preview representative paired X/Y data before selecting a device.
Chart Legend & Axis Refinements: Legend names and ordering now follow your configured data points, full source names appear on hover, and XY Charts drop unused axis padding when labels are blank.

Alerts

Alert on the values you actually care about, and push events where they need to go.

NEW Calculated-Value Alerts: Define alert thresholds against calculated values, see them recorded in evaluation history, and preview formulas from a single reading while you author them.
NEW Alert Payload Push: Push alert events to configured endpoints end-to-end, with per-endpoint throttling. A throttle set to zero is now treated as “no throttle” rather than blocking all pushes.
Scoped Bulk Deletion: Deleting alert events by date range is now scoped to the active alert filter, so bulk deletion can’t reach past what’s on screen.

Devices & Organization

Organize larger fleets and see status change in real time.

NEW Device Systems (v1): Build a practical digital twin of a machine, room, building, or site by grouping its devices and related dashboards into named systems. The visual system map mirrors how those assets connect in the real world, giving teams one place to navigate the equipment and its live data through the web app and API.
Live Device-Status Updates: Online and offline changes now appear in the interface without a page reload.

Reliability & Fixes

Ask AI & Tags: Ask AI can find, update, and delete JSON or array-valued tags even when whitespace or property order differs, and it distinguishes a missing tag from a mismatched value or type. Alert thresholds sourced from tags stay tied to the correct tag when several share a key.
Smarter Device Connections: Get devices online faster with improved recognition and normalization of more MQTT topics and payload formats, plus clearer live status messages that show whether data is flowing and what needs attention.
Map Chart: Pin controls and information panels remain usable after zooming, panning, or resizing.
Faster First Load: Applications created through the Start Wizard, and device connectivity icons, now update immediately without a page refresh.

Security & Reliability

Various security and performance hardening across the platform.

Session Continuity: Token rotation now replaces only the token being rotated, and temporary refresh failures preserve your local session, preventing cascade logouts and repeated login redirects.
Application-Scope Enforcement: Device operations and connectivity-alert routes now verify that the target device belongs to the active application, and out-of-scope devices appear as not found.
Private Conflict Responses: Duplicate external-ID conflicts no longer expose the name of a device outside your active application, and conflicts involving disabled devices return a controlled response instead of an error.

Version 2.4: Integrations, Custom Widget Calculations, and Typed Tags

July 15, 2026

This release opens neqto.ai to your external systems, puts a full calculation engine directly inside your widgets, and gives your tags real data types you can reuse across dashboards and alerts, plus a smarter, cleaner dashboard experience.

Integrations: Bring In Data From External Systems

You can now pull data from the services you already use, without building a custom pipeline.

Integrations: Connect an external service, pull a sample, and let AI propose the field mapping for you. Confirm it, and a device is created automatically.
Guided 4-Step Wizard: A four-screen creation wizard walks you through setup from connection to confirmation.
Secure Authentication: Connections authenticate securely on your behalf using established OAuth standards.
Scheduled or On-Demand Pulls: Bring data in on a recurring schedule, or trigger a “pull now” whenever you need it.

Tags: Now With Real Data Types

Tags graduate from simple labels into typed, reusable values you can reference throughout the platform.

Typed Tags: Tags can now hold a real data type (text, number, whole number, true/false, list, or structured value), with editing that understands each type.
Tag Tokens in Widgets & Alerts: Drop tag values straight into widget labels and alert threshold values using simple {{tag.key}} tokens, with type checking on thresholds.
AI-Managed Tags: Ask AI to read, create, edit, or delete tags for you, each with an inline confirmation step.
Bulk Tag Creation: Create tags in bulk from pasted text or a CSV.

Visualizations & Dashboards<

More power over how you calculate and display data, with a cleaner widget experience throughout.

Advanced Widget Calculation Engine: Build your own calculations and transform on-device attribute data, right inside the widget. A rich editor with a toolbar, templates, and variables makes it easy to express the formula you need, and results render live.
XY / Scatter-Plot Charts: A new chart type for showing how one attribute relates to another (X vs Y), with custom legend names, axis-label controls, and a settings layout that matches the standard chart editor.
Widget UX Polish: Controls now appear on hover and tuck away when you’re not using them, with a clearer drag handle and a new expand/zoom button. Widget descriptions sit under each title, and doc links are built into the editor and image-map modals.
Ask AI About This Widget: A new button opens the AI chat pre-filled with a widget-aware prompt.
Custom Number Formatting: Control decimal places on Gauge, Label, and Table widgets, with round-up, round-down, or no-rounding options.
Custom Chart Labels: Set your own labels on chart widgets.

Devices & Data Ingestion

Broader hardware coverage and a smoother device-management flow.

Expanded EnOcean Support: More EnOcean Equipment Profiles (EEPs) are supported, including RPS devices that have no teach-in step. Profile selection is easier, and monthly transmission-count reporting has been refined.
Auto-Refreshing Tables: Device and Endpoint tables now refresh automatically after the Add wizard completes.

Reliability & Fixes

Accurate CSV Exports: Exports now match the displayed time range exactly (previously off by one hour), with expanded exports matching the painted range and filename time.
Clean CSV Encoding: Downloaded CSV files no longer show garbled characters.
Account-Scoped Attribute Editing: Non-owner users can now edit attribute display names and units.
Safer Data Push Preview: The Data Push editor preview no longer risks firing real device pushes; it is now inert.
Real-Time Push at Scale: Resolved the “No active clients” error so WebSocket push stays reliable under multi-instance scaling.
Clearer Rate-Limit Feedback: The notification now shows the remaining seconds with clearer wording.
Smarter Wizard Defaults: The Add-application wizard now defaults to Smart Environment with all options enabled.
Widget & Chart Fixes: Fixed a widget error on save, chart max-points behavior on the X-axis, and broken text resizing when zoomed on Single-Status and Label widgets.

Security Hardening

Prompt-Injection Guardrail: Added protection against prompt-injection attempts in AI-assisted content.
Resilient Data Push: Automatic deactivation on permanent failures, rejection of unsafe wildcard publish topics, and safeguards against oversized or malformed payloads.

Version 2.3: Introducing Data Push, Widget Math, and Smarter AI Analytics

June 23, 2026

This update brings powerful new capabilities to our AI analytics, gives you more control over your dashboards, and introduces highly requested flexibility to your alerting workflows.

AI Chatbot & Analytics Upgrades

Our “Ask AI” assistant and analytics engine just got a lot smarter, shifting from purely descriptive text to active problem-solving.

In-Chat Calculations: You can now ask the AI chatbot for derived insights in plain language (e.g., “What was our average efficiency last week?”) and receive the computed math results directly inline.
Custom Attribute Relationships: Define mathematical equations and relationships between different attributes to power advanced analysis and create custom chart values. Create widget calculations by combining numeric data points with arithmetic operators.
Smarter Time & Date Handling: Chatbot responses now include explicit dates and localized relative times.

Devices, Endpoints & Data Ingestion

Managing large fleets of hardware is now simpler and more secure.

NEW FEATURE — Data Push: sends an arbitrary payload in real time from the neqto.ai server to a connected Device Endpoint. It can be used to deliver commands or data to a device on demand. It is available only for endpoints using the MQTT or WebSocket protocol (HTTP/HTTPS endpoints cannot receive a push).
Expanded Hardware Support: Enjoy broader EnOcean Equipment Profile (EEP) compatibility for a wider range of device types, alongside MQTT worker stability improvements for smoother data ingestion.

Visualizations & Dashboards

We’ve added more granular control over how you visualize your data, while cleaning up edge-case display bugs.

Status Widget Updates: Enjoy expanded configuration options for gauge visualizations. We’ve also introduced new single-status and multi-status display options, including Pie and Doughnut chart types to make device states easier to read at a glance.
Map Widget Enhancements: Map data now converts to widgets more reliably. Map pins are dynamically color-coded by alert severity.
Widget Calculations: Device data widgets can now transform data based on simple arithmetic between device attributes.
UI Polish: We fixed full-screen and zoom behaviors on dashboards, and long text values in label charts will no longer overflow their containers.
Data Push Widgets: You can now add Data Push widgets straight to your dashboards. Choose between a Form layout (for entering and sending arbitrary data on the fly with optional pre-filled defaults) or a Button layout (a one-tap interface to quickly trigger up to four pre-configured commands).

Powerful New Alerting Capabilities

This release kicks off Phase 1 of our Alert Improvements, giving you much tighter control over how and when you are notified.

“None-Of” (NOR) Logic: You can now build advanced alerts that trigger only when none of a specified set of conditions are met. This includes a quick “negate” toggle for single conditions.
Alert Muting: Users can mute alert notifications globally, with application-level exceptions.
Rich Alert Metadata: Add deep context to your alerts by attaching Application names, Endpoints, Tags, and Custom Notes to notifications.
Independent Notifications & Live Feeds: You can now set independent notification intervals specifically for anomaly and connectivity notifications, allowing you to control how frequently you are alerted on these specific events.

Application Simulator Scoping

For teams using our simulator environment, we’ve moved away from a global view to a more organized, isolated workspace.

Per-Application Access: The simulator is now securely scoped to each individual application, accessible via a dedicated sidebar entry featuring a demo-endpoint picker.
Custom Fields: You can now safely add, edit, and remove custom device fields using typed inputs.

Documentation & Account Self-Service

Account Renaming: Account Administrators can now rename their accounts directly in the console. This change automatically syncs with your billing profiles.
Refreshed User Guides: Our user documentation has been fully updated across alerts, Ask AI, maps, devices, the simulator, Data Push, and widget calculations—complete with fresh screenshots to match the new UI.

Clarified Language: To better reflect industry standards, we have renamed “Data Sources” to Device Endpoints across the entire UI.

Reliability & Security

Flexible Notifications: You can now add external members (email/phone) to notification groups without requiring them to have a neqto.ai account.
Role-Based Access: Manage team permissions more granularly via the new Settings > Roles tab.
Bug Fixes: We’ve polished the experience by resolving issues with chart zoom timestamps, tag validation, and account saving errors.

Version 1.26.2: Real-Time Precision & Smarter AI

February 21, 2026

Effective monitoring isn’t just about collecting data, it’s about getting the right information to the right person at the exact moment it matters. This update focuses on reducing noise, increasing speed, and giving you total control over your automated insights.

Alerts & Notifications: Faster, Quieter, and More Personal

We’ve overhauled our alerting engine to move away from “inbox clutter” and toward real-time operational awareness. Total Control Over Alert Lifecycle

Manual Alert Unlock: No more waiting for timers to expire. Operators can now manually unlock alerts from the management panel the moment a situation is resolved.
Intelligent Throttling: For alerts without a specific unlock condition, we’ve extended the cooldown from 60 minutes to 24 hours. This ensures your team isn’t bombarded with duplicate notifications for the same persistent condition.
Zero-Lag Triggers: Timer-only alerts now evaluate and fire the instant conditions are met, bypassing the previous scheduled check cycles for immediate response.

Streamlined Delivery

Real-Time WebSockets: We’ve replaced slow “polling” with WebSockets. Your browser now receives alert events instantly, watch your history and analytics update in real-time without refreshing.
Targeted Email Selection: Stop “reply-all” fatigue. You can now specify exactly which users receive email notifications for a specific alert, ensuring only the relevant stakeholders are notified.
Human-Readable localized Emails: Our notification emails are now fully localized in English and Japanese, featuring clear formatting for sensor types and threshold values that anyone can understand.

AI Chatbot: Operational Awareness

Your AI assistant is now more stable and deeply integrated with your device history.

Alert-Aware Conversations: The chatbot now sees your recent alert events. When you ask, “Why did this device go offline?” the AI uses actual alert history rather than just raw data to give you a more accurate diagnosis.
Precision Control (Temperature): Tailor the AI’s personality to the task. Use Low Temperature for precise, deterministic answers during a crisis, or Higher Temperature for creative trend analysis and brainstorming.
Technical Accuracy: We’ve fixed a case-sensitivity bug, ensuring that string matches like “Open” or “Closed” are now handled correctly without being forced to lowercase.

Dashboards & Translation Gaps

We are continuing to refine the visual tools you use to monitor your fleet.

Custom Chart Ranges: You can now define the exact X-axis observation window for chart widgets, letting you focus on the specific timeframes that matter most to your KPIs.
Enhanced Table Widgets: Table charts now support customizable row and column labels, making complex data grids much easier to read.
Seamless Localization: We’ve closed translation gaps in our authentication and password reset flows, ensuring a 1:1 experience for our Japanese-speaking users.

Maintenance Note

We’ve also cleaned up the backend, enabling bulk alert history deletion and normalizing the data structures between the chatbot and manual forms to ensure your settings remain consistent across the platform.

Version 1.25.12: Reliability & Usability Refinements

December 25, 2025

Enhanced Data Accuracy

The “Zero” Fix: We resolved a display issue where Single Status Widgets would appear blank when a value was exactly 0. Your “zero” values will now render correctly, ensuring you have a true representation of your sensor data.
Flexible Widget Configuration: You can now clear or set the Duration Setting to an empty value on single widgets. This provides more flexibility when you want to remove specific time-constraints from your dashboard views.

Security & Access

Consistent Password Rules: We’ve synchronized our password validation across the entire platform. Whether you are signing up for the first time or updating your credentials, the frontend and backend now share the same clear, consistent requirements to eliminate “validation loops.”

Developer Tools: Flexible Data Retrieval

New UUID Endpoint: We’ve expanded our connection capabilities by adding support for the data/v1/uuid/* endpoint pattern.
- Why it matters: You can now retrieve data using a device’s UUID rather than just its ID, offering much greater flexibility when integrating neqto.ai with your existing devices.
