What's new

Changes to CorpusKit Cloud and its portals, newest first.

Questions about a change? Email hello@corpuskit.cloud.

Delete a document

  • Managers can delete a document from its page, from Recent additions or from Corpus health.
  • One confirmation names the document and says what deleting it removes.
  • Investigations keep the evidence they drew from it, with its passage and notes.

Replies reach our team

  • Reply to any CorpusKit Cloud email and it reaches our team at hello@corpuskit.cloud.
  • Reminders before a trial ends, and the email when it becomes read-only, offer "Talk to us about keeping it".
  • That button starts an email to us with your portal named in the subject.

Search answers show how sure they are

  • Search answers carry the same confidence level, citations and checked figures as Ask.
  • Figures to check against the sources are marked in the answer.

See answers readers found unhelpful

  • Insights lists the answers readers marked unhelpful, with the comment they left.
  • Ask again runs the same question, so you can see the difference after adding or fixing documents.

Clear reasons when a job stops

  • When a website sync, summary run or knowledge graph run stops, Manage shows the reason it gave.
  • A source's sync log stays in place, so you can see how far it got.

Accessible colours and focus

  • New portals start on the CorpusKit library palette, designed for WCAG AA contrast.
  • Links and text drawn on a portal's own colours are adjusted to meet AA contrast.
  • Keyboard focus is clearly visible on buttons and the question fields, including in high contrast mode.
  • Owners can choose another palette from the library under Appearance.

Adding documents

  • "Add documents" appears in the Library, on the portal home page and in Manage.
  • The add panel is open from the start, with a drop zone and room for several files at once.
  • Each file shows its upload progress, then processing and ready, or the reason it failed.
  • Library counts update as documents arrive, without a reload.

Drafts stay with your team

  • Documents and links saved as drafts stay out of readers' view, in the Library and its filters.
  • Hide, in Manage, takes a published document back out of readers' view.
  • Readers see a draft once a manager publishes it.

Data retention and deletion

  • Account, trial and sign-in records are deleted automatically, on the schedule in our privacy notice.
  • When a trial portal is deleted, its sessions, investigations, members and activity log go with it.
  • Email hello@corpuskit.cloud to have your details, or your organisation's, deleted sooner.

Single sign-on

  • Your organisation can sign in with Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace or another OpenID Connect provider.
  • We set it up with you on request, and your people then sign in with their work account.
  • Signing in from your portal brings you back to the page you started on.

Clearer emails

  • Every email from CorpusKit Cloud arrives in the CorpusKit design, with a plain text version alongside.
  • Each one opens with a heading and labels its buttons, and sign-in links are shown in full as well.

Choose where documents are stored

  • The trial request shows where your documents, their index and the knowledge graph will be stored.
  • Australia (Sydney) is the default, and other regions are available on request.
  • Your setup page and the portal-ready email name the region.

Your own web address

  • Your portal can use your organisation's own web address, such as research.yourorg.au.
  • Owners add it under Your web address, then add the two DNS records shown there.
  • The first address you connect becomes the portal's main address, and yourname.corpuskit.cloud forwards to it.
  • Included with Hosted and Managed.
