STORY: What's new in the Public Beta

Everything that changed when SAGA became STORY, what you need to do, current limits and what's coming next.

On 21 October 2026, SAGA became STORY and moved from private beta to public beta. This page lists what changed, what you need to do, and what STORY can and can't do yet. For the story behind the release, read What's New: SAGA is now STORY, and it's in public beta.

Action required by 4 November 2026: chats and schedules created before 28 September 2026 are no longer supported and will be deleted on 4 November, along with their history. Copy any brief you still need into a new chat, recreate its schedule and pause the old one.

What changed

Area

What changed

What it means for you

Name

SAGA is now STORY

Same agent, same searches. Look for STORY on your launchpad.

Report windows

Each schedule stores its window as a rule, and the system calculates the exact dates at every run, including time zones and clock changes

Briefings always cover the right period, with the right dates and weekdays

Recipients

Saved with the schedule and used exactly as given

Briefings only go to the people you named

Plans

A confirmed plan is required before scheduling, and it's carried into every turn and every run

Long chats and scheduled runs stay on the question you asked

Scheduled runs

Run on Pulsar's servers, independently of your login

Logging out no longer stops a schedule

Stuck chats

Fixed the issue that could leave a chat stuck at the planning step

Chats move from plan to report without getting stuck

Working memory

Much larger context for each session

Typical analyses keep their full context from start to finish

Search and filters

Search resolved once; country, source and hour-by-hour filters applied exactly

No repeated lookups and no filters loosened along the way

Quotes

Quotes are the exact text of posts in your results, credited to the account that posted them

Every quote can be checked, including replies, quote posts and reposts

Permissions

STORY runs with your Pulsar permissions, across every department in your team

You see your private searches and folders, and nothing beyond them

Composer

Quick filters for search, date range and reply language

Set scope in a click, in plain language or both

Reports

Open with a verdict, a 0–100 strength score and the change against the previous period; up to four charts

The headline and its evidence are in the first lines

Chat list

Subject-based titles, a badge on scheduled chats, and several chats running at once

Easier to find and manage your work

Moving an older chat to STORY

  1. Open the older chat and copy your first prompt and any refinements. Save any reports you want to keep.

  2. Start a new chat, paste in the brief, set the filters and confirm the plan.

  3. Recreate any schedule and add your recipients.

  4. Pause the old schedule so nobody receives duplicates, then work only in the new chat.

Chats can't be migrated automatically. If something goes wrong in an older chat, start a new one before reporting it: most issues in older chats are already fixed in STORY.

Current limits in the Public Beta

  • Schedules run at most once a day, with one schedule per chat.

  • Each chat works within one Pulsar domain. Cross-domain analysis isn't supported.

  • Reports support nine chart types, and unsupported types fall back to the closest one.

  • Pattern classification needs at least 30 days of data. Lifespan and volatility are unreliable for windows under 7 days.

  • Virality forecasts describe likely trajectories. They aren't guarantees.

  • Email briefings use basic formatting for now.

Coming next

  • A faster, more efficient analysis engine

  • An in-app meter showing how much of your usage allowance remains

  • Better-formatted email briefings

  • More frequent schedules
