Late August 2026 Updates
🔐 Revamped Permissions & Roles
We completely revamped permissions to give organizations more control over what people can see and do, while making role management more flexible.
NEW to Permissions:
- Permissions are now organized at the organization level
- Permissions are divided into Visibility, Actions, and Advanced settings
- Each role has its own configurable set of permissions and capabilities
- New “Owner” role is added which has full capabilities
- Owners can create custom roles tailored to their organization’s needs
- Custom roles can be assigned to both new and existing users
- Organizations can better control access to the content and capabilities people work with

📊 Closed-Ended Questions in Studies
Studies now support closed-ended questions, making it easier to collect structured feedback while still uncovering the reasoning behind people’s choices.
NEW to Studies:
- Add multiple choice questions where respondents can select one or multiple options
- Add sorting & priority questions where respondents rank options based on importance
- Enable AI-powered follow-up questions for closed-ended responses
- AskHumans generates targeted follow-ups based on respondents’ selections or priorities
