3.0.0-beta.1

March 31, 2026

This marks the first Beta release. This initial build doesn't contain too much but we'll be updating it very soon with some awesome new features and improvements. The plan is to get features in to the hands of the users quicker, to get a much quicker feedback loop and help us stabilize features faster.

Features

  • Added support for Latin American Spanish.
  • Added project recovery after mixer crashes so unsaved work can be salvaged.

Improvements

  • Updated our local transcription module to take advantage of the Intel NPU for speed and efficiency. Further accuracy improvements are a work in progress
  • Added a tooltip in the title bar so the full filename is visible on hover
  • Improved OCR model selection for privacy scanning.
  • Improved mixer loading so in-progress loads can be cancelled more cleanly.
  • Updated macOS cursor assets for better compatibility with newer macOS versions.

Fixes

  • Fixed crop changes not resetting correctly when closing the crop dialog without saving.
  • Fixed Webcam AI flows so the minimize warning dialog appears when needed.
  • Fixed compress cuts so overlapping zoom segments are handled correctly.
  • Fixed waveform previews sometimes showing stale data from another project.
  • Fixed audio replacement preview sliders so they line up with replacement timing correctly.
  • Fixed missing ripple effects in exports.
  • Fixed several UI issues in privacy areas and related dialogs, including sizing, opacity, spacing, and text wrapping.
