What is Fibery 2.0 for a current customer? In short, all existing functionality is intact, nothing is removed, some things are added. With Fibery 2.0 we are introducing two major areas: Highlights and Fibery AI.
Highlights
Fibery is about connecting information, and Highlights is a novel way to connect text to structured databases. Let me use an analogy to explain what Highlight is.
Most likely you have a Kindle and maybe sometimes you select interesting parts of the book you read. This selection is a Highlight. Now imagine you can add some attributes to this selection (how important it is, for example). Finally, you can connect this selection to your knowledge base, like to some tag, or to some idea you have in mind, or to some article you want to write.
We invented a way to capture information from rich text field in a Source entity and connect it to a Target entity via multi-relations. Highlight is a database, so you can augment it with additional information, like severity or urgency, create formulas and automations for Highlights, find highlights via Search, create Views with highlights, create Reports with Highlights, see Highlights on a Whiteboard.
We ourselves just started to scratch the surface of this powerful connectivity tool.
Here are some use cases we have in mind, and we believe you will invent more:
- Product feedback management. Capture facts from Intercom chats, customer calls, and connect them to product features or areas.
- User research. Capture observations from user interviews, and connect them to insights or problems.
- Market research. Capture information about market from web posts, newsletters, and connect it to niches, opportunities, etc.
Check this video to see product feedback management use case powered by Highlights. It is a product managerâs dream.
It is not possible to utilize both Link-to-entity and Highlights functionality in the same workspace, so you need to decide if you want to migrate to Highlights. The upgrade option is available on all plans and is completely free. Upgrading to Highlights is not mandatory for existing workspaces, though please note that all the new workspaces have only the Highlights option.
Fibery AI: next iteration
We introduced Fibery AI last year and listened to your feedback. We are releasing the next iteration of Fibery AI. Now it can do more things:
- Transcribe audio and video files
- Suggest Highlights in sources and target entities
- Answer questions about your Fibery data (very experimental)
- Find patterns and clusters in your Fibery data (soon)
We no longer ask you for Open AI Key. Fibery AI Free is enabled by default, and Fibery AI Pro costs $10 per user per month. Check Fibery AI Pricing page.
The current version of Fibery AI with Open AI Key will be discontinued on August 1st. All such accounts will get Fibery AI Free by default.
Transcribe audio and video
Now you can transcribe audio or video files and insert the transcriptions directly into the rich text field. This eliminates the need to manually create transcripts elsewhere and simplifies the process of highlighting important sections within Fibery.
Suggest Highlights in sources and target entities
If you use Highlights, there are two ways to capture Highlights via AI.
You can do it in any Target entity. For example, you can go to any Feature and click Suggest Highlights
button in the top right corner. With luck, Fibery will show some suggestions from Sources. Review them and use Link
button to create new Highlights.
Alternatively, you can open an Source entity and try to find some good Targets. For example, you can go to an Interview, click Suggest Highlights and see a list of suggested Highlights on the right. There can be several potential Targets, so you can click the best match on your opinion and a new Highlight will be created.
AI Workspace Data Expert Assistant: ask questions about your Fibery data (experimental)
We are working on a chatbot that knows all your Fibery databases and can answer questions around databases and text. This is a hard task, but now we feel we can share the prototype with you so you can try it and provide us feedback.
This feature is very experimental, you can enable it in Settings â Experimental Lab.
What questions you can ask? Here are some examples for your inspiration (we did try these questions on our data):
- How many Planned features do we have?
- Do we have any feedback about Time tracking?
- What is the total estimated effort of Planned features?
- Are there any common patterns in the 3 last interviews?
- Compare MRR growth this year and last year
- Generate a report with all fixed bugs this week. Briefly explain what was fixed.
- Describe recently added features
Try to ask questions around your Fibery data and share wow and wtf
results!
Whiteboard: Simplest Auto Layouts for connected cards
Now you can apply horizontal or vertical layout for hierarchical or connected cards on Whiteboard. Just select cards and select the layout from the menu. For example, you can create organizational chart this way.
We will add more layouts in near future, like star layout, etc.
Reports: Multiple color palettes
Now you can select and set as default color palettes for reports. Click on any color and select a palette from the list. You canât create custom palettes yet, let us know if you really need it.
List & Table View: Group by lookups and formulas (if they produce a relation)
Now you can group Lists and Tables by lookup or formula field, if the result of the lookup of formula is a relation. For example, Highlight has a formula that links Workspace state to Highlight, and we can group Highlights by this formula now.
Improvements
- Restore Space: if the Space name has been taken since deletion, we restore the Space by adding a suffix like
1
to its name instead of failing. - Group permissions: instead of showing an error at the last moment, we clearly indicate if you need to upgrade to Pro to share with Groups.
Fixed Bugs
- Whiteboard: Itâs impossible to apply When filter in search popup on Whiteboard
- Table/List View: Linked entities display in the list without group if parent Grouped was filtered out
- Top-level Smart Folders are collapsed by default
- Blank value instead of account name sometimes appears in integration âconnect accountâ screen
- Missing comments in panel when âCommentâ field is hidden in main entity section
- Cannot reorder context Documents on Entity View
- Change âMoveâŠâ field action names
Any pricing changes?
All current plans remain the same and the price stays the same. What changed then?
- Fibery AI was introduced as a separate add-on.
- Some permissions-related features are moved to the Pro plan, like Custom access templates. In the future, more permissions features will be a part of the Pro plan as well.
- Weâre introducing an Enterprise plan for large companies to enjoy closer collaboration with us.
