What’s new: Live summary enhancements, Project updates, and more ✨ (2.6)
Live summary enhancements
We released Live summary blocks last month, and already there’s been a slew of ideas and suggestions. Here are a few key enhancements we've implemented so far:
- Live summary now works on documents too — perfect for concise summaries of meetings notes or product briefs.
- Height waits until you’ve finalized description edits before making any updates.
- If there isn’t enough context to work with, a summary won’t be generated.

Project updates
Project checkups have been improved and renamed to "Project updates." Now, the updates focus solely on progress and completed work within a project, and are sent automatically, no review needed.
