Release 3.17.0: A citation connects an answer to a highlighted source passage.
3.17.0

See the source. Review the change.

Follow answers to the passages behind them, review clearer edit previews, and keep your sources and Memory organized.

  • Citations that show their work

    Open a citation to see the passage behind an answer, then find it highlighted on the source page. Return to an already open source tab and jump to the cited post, message, or comment.

  • Review the edit before it lands

    See proposed Google Docs changes in their surrounding sections and review Google Sheets updates as a cell grid before you approve them.

  • Organize your browser from chat

    Ask Ventrilo to close or group tabs, manage bookmarks, find pages in your browsing history, or reopen recently closed tabs. Review tab and bookmark organization changes before applying them, with Undo available from the result card.

  • A clearer view of your Saved Sources

    Browse a refreshed library, move between saved pages, and keep discussions together with replies in anchored comment threads.

  • Keep Memory up to date

    Remove individual items directly from the Memory page. Your saved preferences also carry into new chats.

Improvements and fixes (6)
  • Ventrilo picks relevant tabs and Saved Sources more accurately, so you spend less time adding context yourself. A refreshed context tray makes it easier to review what’s attached.
  • Connected-app settings are easier to browse, and app names and logos identify actions as Ventrilo works.
  • Review and respond to connected-app approvals while an answer is still arriving.
  • Copied answers preserve numbered lists, math, and JSON more reliably.
  • Floating chats and attached drafts recover more reliably as you navigate between pages.
  • Stopped answers are labeled clearly, and interrupted replies recover more reliably.

3.16.0

The right context, right where you work

Automatic tab context, source citations, and a kitty companion for your chat.

  • The right tabs, already there

    Relevant open tabs attach as you type. Remove any before sending, or turn automatic attachments off.

  • Meet Trilo

    Your kitty companion hangs out by the chat and gets to work when you ask. Show or hide him from the menu or Settings.

  • Follow the sources

    Inline citations link answers to their sources, including Memory references.

  • A little humor in your chat

    Ventrilo can add Trilo memes to a reply when they fit the conversation. Copy the image, or turn Memes off in Settings.

  • Saved Sources are easier to reach from the in-page chat menu, and the Save button reflects a page’s saved status.

  • Completed chat drafts survive extension restarts. Interrupted chats and reconnecting sends recover more reliably.

3.14.0

Keep your sources close
