What changed in AskAny.

Product changes that affect the workspace, model access, connected apps, creation, usage visibility, privacy, and security.

September 2026Browser workspace

One browser workspace, one product boundary

  • Made the console the canonical browser shell so chats and previews stay inside the workspace instead of becoming separate browser destinations.
  • Fresh verified accounts now land directly in a new chat instead of passing through an unnecessary setup flow.
  • Clarified the product boundary: AskAny provides the workspace and features; OpenRouter provides the model catalog, routing, and ongoing model usage billing.
  • Refined activation measurement around reaching the workspace and completing a first useful model response instead of page-level setup milestones.
2026Workspace

Connected work, Studio, and transparent model usage

  • Added connected-app workflows so chats can pull in relevant context and present write actions for review before they run.
  • Expanded AskAny Studio for image, video, and audio creation inside the same workspace.
  • Added usage views that separate the AskAny product subscription from OpenRouter model spend, tokens, requests, and model mix.
  • Introduced Free Preview so a new account can reach first value before connecting OpenRouter for ongoing usage.
2025–2026Historical

Earlier installed-app experiments

AskAny originally explored native installed-app workflows on Windows and macOS, including floating access, selected-context actions, and global shortcuts. That work remains part of the product history and the installed app can continue evolving later.

The current public acquisition path is browser-first. We are not presenting installed-app downloads as the primary way to start using AskAny.
