Changelog

All notable changes and releases for Tiles.

Status

Tiles is currently in alpha. We are focused on making the assistant faster, more reliable, and genuinely useful in daily workflows. Alongside improving the core experience, we are steadily expanding its capabilities and exposing more control through the Tilekit SDK so developers can shape and extend what Tiles can do. Expect rapid iteration with security and correctness as the baseline.

Roadmap

  • ATProto-based identity with support for Personal Data Servers (PDS)
  • Peer-to-peer encrypted sync
  • Connectors based on MCP and Agent Skills optimized for token efficiency
