June 30, 2026: News Terminal, Lite trial signup, and platform reliabilityCopy Anchor Link

Y2 now includes the rebuilt News Terminal and simpler Lite trial signup. Reliability improvements cover billing, chat, delivery, developer tools, and intelligence data quality.

What changedCopy Anchor Link

News TerminalCopy Anchor Link

• The News Terminal now uses direct-source feeds. Y2 News Terminal / Signal Feed replaces Gloria branding throughout the active product.
• Users can select source feeds, switch between Live Feed and 12h Recap views, refresh the active view, and keep feed/view preferences across reloads.
• Recaps now summarize the same signals shown in the live feed, keeping summaries aligned with the terminal while reducing unnecessary source refreshes.
• News API and reference docs now use consistent names. Responses clarify invalid topics, invalid timeframes, and feeds that are still initializing.

Lite trial signup and billingCopy Anchor Link

• New signup now guides users toward a Lite trial by default while keeping Free available as a fallback path.
• Lite checkout starts a 7-day trial and returns users to briefing setup once subscription access is confirmed.
• If checkout finishes before access syncs, users see a pending setup state. They can check again or return to plan selection without a premature redirect.
• Trialing subscriptions now unlock paid access consistently across briefing setup, chat, usage tracking, and billing views.
• Billing views now show clearer workspace subscription status, owner-only billing controls, and profile reclaim notices after plan changes.

App, Chat, and delivery reliabilityCopy Anchor Link

• App shell navigation and scrolling are more stable on mobile and desktop.
• Chat, profile setup, report delivery, audio, SMS, and webhook workflows received reliability improvements around usage tracking, delivery state, and customer-facing errors.
• Report and briefing layouts now handle long reports, delivery preferences, branding, and profile setup more clearly.

Developer and intelligence workflowsCopy Anchor Link

• API Workbench endpoints are now grouped into collapsible categories, making larger API surfaces easier to scan.
• Generated API examples keep pasted API keys out of copied snippets, and the workbench includes a copyable AI Quickstart prompt for teams integrating Y2.
• Aircraft tracks and normalized identifiers now enter the graph more consistently. This reduces duplicate entities and improves relationship context across OSINT and Explorer.

June 18, 2026: Chat reliability, OSINT Monitor, and landing performanceCopy Anchor Link

Y2 now hardens chat image generation, streamlines the OSINT monitor workspace, and adds landing-page performance guardrails for responsive marketing assets.

What changedCopy Anchor Link

Chat and configuration reliabilityCopy Anchor Link

• Image generation now reserves credits before external model calls. Provider, upload, or storage failures release reservations. Saving generated images does not charge twice.
• Chat stream error handling now returns a stable INTERNAL_ERROR code and logs redacted identity metadata instead of exposing raw token or subject values.
• Convex client setup and chat HTTP URL derivation now fail fast when VITE_CONVEX_URL is missing.
• Open Graph report routes derive public URLs from SITE_URL, with https://y2.dev as the production fallback.
• Chat web-search source chips now ignore malformed or unsupported URLs instead of throwing during render.

OSINT Monitor experienceCopy Anchor Link

• The monitor bottom bar now uses four resizable panes: live video, theater headlines, FININT, and intel findings.
• CNBC is promoted to the first live-news channel, and the removed duplicate news terminal gives more room to the analysis panels.
• Lite workspaces now unlock the full Situation Room and paid OSINT limits. Features include tracking, naval vessels, GPS interference, markets, predictions, anomaly/convergence/cascade analysis, and exports.
• The layer sidebar now gives Lite access to every Situation Room layer. Lite users can enable the same layers as Pro and Elite.

Landing-page performanceCopy Anchor Link

• Walkthrough images now use versioned responsive srcSet metadata, intrinsic dimensions, eager first-image loading, and lower-priority lazy loading for later images.
• New 960px marketing image derivatives reduce walkthrough screenshot payloads, with immutable Netlify caching for /images/marketing/*.
• bun run check:landing-perf validates stale hero preloads were removed, marketing images stay versioned and responsive, and responsive derivatives remain smaller than their originals.

June 2026: Y2 Elite B2B, Organization Workspaces and Intel API v2Copy Anchor Link

Y2 Workspaces now support the current organization model for companies, teams, and departments. Personal Free, Lite, and Pro workspaces continue to serve individual workflows. Elite creates a shared organization workspace where profiles, reports, API keys, usage, delivery settings, and governance resolve from the active workspace.

This release also expands the Intel API v2 surface served from https://api.y2.dev/api/v2. The new Intel surface is gated by intel:finint, intel:cyber, and intel:explorer scopes. As of July 21, 2026, new API-key access to those scopes requires Pro or Elite. Existing Lite API users retain their keys at historical Lite limits. Lite retains in-app FININT/Cyber/Explorer, and the in-app Cyber dashboard remains available on Free.

What changedCopy Anchor Link

Organization workspacesCopy Anchor Link

• Elite creates a shared B2B workspace for organizations, teams, and departments.
• Owners and admins can invite members, manage roles, and review workspace governance.
• Workspace resources are loaded and protected server-side, including profiles, subscriptions, reports, audio, branding templates, delivery settings, API keys, and usage.
• API keys belong to the active workspace and enforce workspace-scoped resource access, scopes, IP allowlists, and aggregate rate limits.

Elite pricing and limitsCopy Anchor Link

Elite includes 10x Pro daily API capacity, 5x Pro API-key capacity, 5x Pro chat budget, 2.5x Pro profile capacity, and organization-only governance.

B2B governance and safetyCopy Anchor Link

• Workspace members and audit logs are available on Elite organization workspaces.
• Team usage summaries and API-key activity are available from workspace governance views.
• Invite acceptance activates the paid organization workspace while preserving each user's separate personal Free workspace.
• Free-trial report limits remain user-global, so creating additional workspaces does not mint new trial capacity.

Intel API v2Copy Anchor Link

The new Intel API exposes Y2's ontology through HTTP endpoints. It covers incidents, entities, relationship graphs, prediction and Y2 markets, emergent signals, and financial intelligence. It serves the same data as the in-app Explorer, FinInt, and Cyber sections.

The 11 endpoints shipped in this launch accept both API keys and x402 pay-per-request:

New Intel scopes:

• intel:finint: markets, finint indicators, non-cyber incidents, market/supply-chain signals
• intel:cyber: CVEs, threat actors, malware families, cyber graph, cyber incidents, cyber/technology signals
• intel:explorer: universal entity catalog, entity drill, entity graph, any-category incidents, broad signal queries

Every v2 response stamps X-Y2-API-Version: 2.0 so programmatic clients can branch on surface. The API Workbench groups Intel endpoints together. Intel API documentation contains the complete reference. The OpenAPI document includes all 11 v2 paths with operation-level servers: overrides.

Everything in Pro, plus team scaleCopy Anchor Link

Elite includes Pro's Situation Room, audio, SMS, webhooks, scheduled reports, and advanced research. It also includes FININT/Cyber/Explorer scopes, investigation sharing, live/vessel/market tracking, anomaly/convergence/cascade analysis, and exports.
