• Smart Search
  • Smart Search is a brand new online-only search engine that uses AI to return highly relevant results without requiring any additional syntax. (AI is used only to find relevant results. No additional text is generated with AI.)
  • Smart Search powers All Search and is the new default for Books Search.
  • The existing search engine (now called Precise Search) is used in Bible and Morph search, and is optional in Books Search.
• Summarization Tool
  • It is now possible to see an AI-generated summary of any article that is shown in the search results.
  • Summaries are also available when reading books, by opening the right sidebar.
• AI Credits
  • The three features above use AI and are subject to a generous fair use cap from a single pool of credits. The translation tool now also shares that pool of credits.
  • When a user has used 80% or more of those credits, a notification will display in the main app nav bar.
• Application Theme
  • Changing light/dark mode will no longer require a restart. It can be switched from the usual menu, or by pressing F4.
• About
  • The About screen will show “Early Access” as the Feature Set.

Changes & Improvements

• Books
  • When no other panels are open, the first panel to open will be placed on the left hand side.
• Translation
  • Fair use translation credits are now AI credits, and use the same notification system described in the Early Access section above.

Bug Fixes

• Books
  • Opening a cloud book while offline will now provide a better message indicating why the book can not be read.
  • The application will no longer crash when navigating to an OT reference from NA28GBS when linked with Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia.
  • When double click is set to “look up” it will now open your preferred Lexicon.
• Search
  • Autocompleted terms in search templates will no longer be wrapped with mismatching quotes.
  • In All search, the factbook card will no longer get stuck in loading state when searching for a bible reference

Windows Bug Fixes

• Print/Export
  • The application will no longer experience crashes caused by different print configurations.
