What's new (/home/whats-new, in the sidebar under Explore Kits) is aiKit's bulletin board. It lists what was just added to aiKit (new tools, new modules for your sites, and fixes), newest first, and what the aiKit team is building next with a rough timing. A blue number next to What's new in the sidebar counts what arrived since you last opened it. You can also get an email when something new arrives by turning on Product updates in Settings.
Open What's new →The blue number next to What's new counts the items that arrived since you last opened the page and that you haven't read. Opening the page clears the number. The items themselves stay marked New until you read them, so nothing slips past you.
When a planned item moves from Coming next to Just added, it counts as new again, even if you read it while it was planned.
Each card shows a picture or the tool's icon, what kind of item it is, the date it arrived, a New badge if you haven't read it, the title, and a short summary in plain words.
A short list of what the aiKit team is building next. Each item has a one-line reason it matters and a rough timing in a yellow tag, like Next up or This month. Timing is kept rough on purpose; a date appears only when the team is sure of it. Read more, Mark as read and Copy link work the same as in Just added.
Settings → Notifications has a Product updates row with two choices: Email me or Off. It starts on Off. With Email me, you get an email when the aiKit team sends out a new item from What's new.
Every product update email has a Stop product update emails link at the bottom. It opens a page with one button; pressing it turns Product updates off without signing in. Opening the link alone changes nothing. Emails about your own work, like proofs and password links, are not affected.
aiKit admins see a New post button at the top and Edit, Email this to users and Delete under every item. Everyone else never sees these.
Email this to users builds the email from the post: the subject (New in aiKit: … or Coming soon to aiKit: …, which you can change), the picture, summary and details, and a button to the tool or to the item on What's new. The preview shows exactly what people get.
Above the preview, aiKit shows the exact number of people it goes to: only accounts that turned on Product updates, minus addresses that bounced. An Admins only post goes only to admins who turned it on. If nobody has turned it on, the send button stays off.
Nothing is sent until you press Send to N people and then Yes, send to N people. If the number changed in between, nothing is sent and the new number is shown. If email isn't switched on where you are, the dialog says so and each email is recorded as not sent. After a send, the item shows when it was emailed and how many went out.
