  • AI assistant โ€“ we're running some experiments with an AI assistant โ€“ it's available in your projects.
  • Runtime logs โ€“ richer visibility into what's happening behind the scenes.
  • Catalog โ€“ richer ways to describe APIs, entities, and relationships.
  • Visual workflows builder โ€“ model API interactions visually.
  • Performance โ€“ faster response times and improved stability across large projects.

That's it for November! ๐Ÿš€ As always, we'd love your feedback โ€” let us know what you think!
