What's new in KleioBase.

Added

• Research Notes widget and a dedicated Insights page. KleioBase now studies your knowledge base in the background and surfaces findings - completeness gaps, missing events, and timeline inconsistencies - so you always have a next thing to investigate.
• Cold-start suggestions for new accounts. Small knowledge bases get tailored onboarding suggestions instead of an empty insights panel.
• Research Companion can work with findings. Escalate any insight straight into a Companion conversation as an attachment, and the assistant can list, open, resolve, and dismiss findings for you.

Changed

• Findings have a lifecycle. Insights are paced so you are not overwhelmed, can be resolved or archived, and stay dismissed once you dismiss them.

Fixed

• Fewer false-positive matches around community figures. Witnesses who appear across many unrelated families (clergy, registrars) no longer generate noisy match suggestions.

Added

• Bulk permanent delete in the Knowledge Base trash. Select multiple records or profiles and clear them in one action.
• Record links on the timeline. "Referenced in" entries now link straight to the underlying record.
• Grouped marriage conflicts. The Conflicts page now groups mismatched marriage values together so they are easier to resolve.

Changed

• Cookieless analytics for visitors who decline cookies. People who reject tracking are still counted anonymously, with nothing stored on their device.

Added

• Notifications - a bell in the header with a dropdown, driven by record processing, new matches, and plan-limit events.
• Insight detection engine that algorithmically studies your knowledge base for things worth following up on.
• Gap detection that flags missing events and timeline holes in a person's life.
• AI connection discovery that proposes likely relationships across your records.
• Root person and reachability - set a "home" person, and KleioBase shows which profiles are disconnected from your main tree.
• Linked-profiles view that groups people by connected branch.

Fixed

• Improved the accuracy and reliability of automatic profile matching.

Added

• Uptime monitoring so outages are detected and surfaced quickly, backed by an incident-response process.

Added

• Profile pictures for person profiles.
• Associates section on the profile page for non-family connections (witnesses, neighbors, and the like).
• ZIP batch upload in the upload workspace, so you can add many records at once.

Fixed

• Maiden surnames are no longer copied into the last-name field when confirming a record.
• Manual family connections no longer fragment children or hide a parent's spouse.
• Merging no longer omits relatives whose relationship is labeled differently.
• Profile pages no longer show filenames or a stray "née" for maiden-only names.

Added

• Contact creation on signup. New accounts are added to our email audience when they sign up, so beta testers receive product updates and announcements.

Added

• GEDCOM and GEDZIP import and export, so you can bring an existing tree into KleioBase or take your data elsewhere, with async email delivery of large exports.
• AI-generated biography narratives for person profiles.
• Shareable public profile biography links.
• Web search and page fetching in the Research Companion, so it can pull in outside context.
• Research Companion agent actions - the assistant can make knowledge-base edits for you (with confirmation).
• Pagination on the knowledge base people and records grids.

Fixed

• GEDCOM import no longer stores raw day-first dates incorrectly.

Added

• Print-friendly views across key surfaces (profiles and records).
• Dynamic record narratives that update live as you edit extracted fields.

Fixed

• Burial details are no longer duplicated in death-record extraction.
• Parents of a record's subject default to "married" rather than "partners."
• Renaming from the tab and record context menus works correctly.

Added

• Deep-scan extraction quality mode that cross-checks multiple passes and reports agreement-based confidence for tougher documents.

Added

• Zoom controls in the upload image viewer.

Fixed

• Freshly uploaded records can now be processed without being rejected as "pending."

Changed

• Knowledge base performance improvements for faster loading of people and records.
• Further mobile UI/UX fixes across the app.

Fixed

• Resolved crashes and stability issues inside third-party in-app browsers.

Added

• Sign-in link on the landing navigation.

Changed

• Major mobile UI/UX pass fixing layout and overflow issues across the app.
• Accessibility improvements (WCAG AA) across the landing pages, authentication, and the app.

Fixed

• Resolved a profile page rendering issue on iOS Safari.
• Improved the resilience of AI processing under heavy load.

Fixed

• The onboarding coach mark no longer crashes the page during rapid scrolling.

Fixed

• The onboarding coach mark no longer flashes behind the beta welcome dialog.
• Resolved an intermittent error when repeatedly recording upload activity.

Fixed

• Authentication no longer redirects to the wrong address after sign-in in production.

Added

• New-user onboarding tour that walks first-time testers through the core workflow.
• Beta signup with a free credit grant so new accounts can start processing records right away.
• Pay-as-you-go credit purchases for processing beyond your plan's allowance.
• Cookie consent banner and preference management, plus a CCPA "Do Not Sell or Share" opt-out that honors Global Privacy Control.
• Self-service data rights - export your data or delete your account on demand.
• Privacy Policy, Terms of Service, and Refund Policy pages.
• In-app beta feedback form for sharing feedback during the beta.

Fixed

• Family linking, divorce-record handling, and profile name display fixes.
• Dismissed matches no longer reappear in search.

Added

• Upload workspace with AI extraction. Upload a handwritten historical record and KleioBase transcribes it, translates it, and pulls out structured people, dates, places, and events.
• Knowledge base. Browse the people, records, places, and timeline built from your documents, with full-text search and a trash/restore flow.
• Profile matching engine. Automatic cross-record matching surfaces likely duplicates and family connections, with a full-page merge experience and the ability to unmerge.
• Research Companion. A streaming AI chat assistant with live access to your knowledge base, citation chips, and attachments for records, profiles, matches, and conflicts.
• Places map with geocoding, and a conflict detector that flags contradictory facts across records.
• Accounts, settings, and billing. Account and preference settings, subscription plans, and secure checkout.

Changed

• Records are modeled on the GEDCOM 7 genealogy standard end to end, from AI extraction through confirmation.

Fixed

• Numerous early extraction, matching, and date-formatting accuracy fixes.

Added

• Landing, About, and Pricing pages introducing KleioBase as an AI research companion for historical documents.
• Early-access waitlist so people could reserve a spot before the beta opened.
