Abstract v2.3 - Release Notes

Release Date: January 10, 2026

Updated this week

Strategy Report Consolidation

The standalone Strategy Report has been consolidated into the Impact Report.

All core strategy components now live directly inside the Impact Report, creating a single, unified analytical output that answers:

  • What changed

  • How it impacts your organization

  • What strategic considerations are relevant

For customers requiring deeper, structured strategic planning, advanced workflows are now available through the new GovStrat Premium Module (see below).


Reports UI Refresh

All reports have been fully reformatted with a cleaner, more readable horizontal layout:

  • Removed legacy two-column structure

  • Improved visual hierarchy

  • Significantly cleaner formatting across all report types

  • Better citation presentation and linking


Parallel Report Generation

You can now generate multiple reports simultaneously.

  • Start new chats and generate reports in parallel

  • No more waiting on long report generations before continuing work

This dramatically improves analyst throughput and daily workflow velocity.


Recurring Discovery Automation

You can now schedule Recurring Discovery Reports to continuously monitor for new regulatory, legislative, and agenda activity relevant to your organization.

What this enables

  • Automated daily / weekly / custom discovery scans

  • Continuous monitoring without manual regeneration

  • Always-on detection of emerging policy risk and opportunity
