release notes

Updates to Magneto Mentor AI tool

Magneto Mentor v2.5 (current version)

19 June 2026

  • Renamed your AI Persona to Persona Creator, to tell the manual tool apart from the AI-assisted one.
  • Added multiple new generic personas (writer, influential communicator, presenter).
  • Made several text tweaks for a smoother user flow.
  • Redesigned the HOME/INDEX page as the place where people build.
  • Renamed the DISCOVER page to ‘GRAB & GO’
  • Made the GRAB & GO page the dedicated spot for ready-made personas and workflows. Added workflows (built with our own tool) with example outputs for writing, influencing and presenting.
  • Overhauled the COLLECTIONS page – you can now create, save, name and organise multiple collections, and group them with categories. A refreshed design with its own solid brand colour scheme set collections apart from saved personas and workflows.
  • Added search and filter to find prompts and saved responses by text, plus sort and pagination controls for collections and saved responses.
  • Aligned all tools and the primary engine around a few questions we removed so all is in sync.
  • Linked the Workflow Builder tool name in the header back to the tool’s start page.
  • Moved off Hotjar and onto Microsoft Clarity for user analytics.
  • Added an event-driven notification system with Slack integration for key activity (saved or copied responses, and organisation creation and joins).

Magneto Mentor v2.0

29 May 2026

  • Added the second AI-assisted workflow – the AI Persona Builder – to complete the offering. This one generates a persona using AI inference (Claude on the guardrails we’ve built).
  • The user can now rapidly generate both a persona and a customised AI workflow based on task all in the one ‘Workflow Builder’ tool.
  • Simplified the persona output to context-only format (removes setup instructions from the generated prompt).
  • Revised ordering for pre-baked persona collection.

Magneto Mentor v1.8

21 May 2026

  • First release of the Workflow Builder – our AI-assisted tool for building clear AI comms. It teaches you what goes into a good prompt while you build one, in under 2 minutes. Think of it as scaffolding for thinking, not just another prompt generator.

  • We’ve plugged in Anthropic’s Commercial API to the Workflow Builder only. In that tool, you bring the context only you can give. Claude talks to our engine to handle the rest.

  • No change to our stance: this is where people learn and build. All AI execution still happens inside your secure enterprise AI environment. We’re the upskilling layer, not the execution layer.

  • New start page for the Workflow Builder. Pick your persona first, then step into the flow.

  • New review step inside the Workflow Builder. The AI asks follow-up questions to sharpen your thinking before you get the final output.

  • You can now reuse persona content in other tools instead of rebuilding it each time.

  • New Workflow Builder banner on the Discover page so it’s easy to find.

  • Workflow Builder design, animation and colours now sit inside the design system. Same organic, human-led look – just stretched to cover the new tool.

  • Swapped the old personas for generic ones that work across any industry. The old set was too specific. The new set flexes.

  • You can still build your own personas and prompts manually for the full learning experience. The Workflow Builder is the fast lane, not the only road.

  • New AI usage limits at instance, organisation and user level so things stay fair and predictable as teams grow.

  • If an anonymous user hits the limit, they’ll see a gentle prompt to sign up rather than a hard stop.

  • Added tracking for persona choice and prompt previews on the start page so we can see what’s working and where people pause.

  • Under the hood: step completion now runs in the background, so the Workflow Builder stays quick even on heavier jobs.

Magneto Mentor v1.7

17 April 2026

  • Added new Power Prompts with a focus on sharing more of our domain/advisory knowledge in the same way we would if a client wanted coaching. The purpose of these is also to show enterprise users how this system can be tailored to any industry, any business type and any workflow.
  • Added custom prompt creation and direct prompt output editing. This means a user can add any prompt that is working well in any workflow so that other team members can have access to it.
  • Added analytics tracking for prompt copy, save, and delete actions so we can easily see where people drop off or get stuck.
  • Improved session handling with automatic recovery when sessions expire.
  • Standardised modal and form components. Nothing interesting for the user; just us keeping a tidy and consistent digital space.
  • Renamed ‘Workspace’ to ‘Collection’ across the app for consistency.
  • Added organisation settings area.
  • Added the ability to invite users by email with role and team assignment (Admin vs. Member).
  • Added member management: change roles, remove access.
  • Added role-based permissions for prompts and collections at both organisation and team level.
  • Added organisation switcher for users in multiple organisations.

Magneto Mentor v1.6

31 March 2026

  • New Personas added with a focus on sharing more of our domain/advisory knowledge in the same way we would if a client wanted coaching.
  • Revamp and simplification of the UI for each of the tools so the user can focus on ‘creating’ without distraction.
  • Introducing a page header that stays consistent and persistent as you move through all areas of the app.
  • Open to save workflow prompts to your COLLECTION.
  • Ability to give each workflow prompt a description.
  • Account, ‘Sign in’ and ‘Sign up’ functionally – all needed for you to save your work
  • Added Key Events tracking so we can see where a user is getting stuck.
  • Update prompt canvas palettes with additional colours and customisation.
  • Improved error tracking and observability of the application to catch real issues faster.
  • Always: Performance & responsiveness fixes.

Magneto Mentor v1.5

27 February 2026

  • First experiment in moving away from the three tools to a version where users can get a fast and easy AI learning experience with zero effort. At this point we are starting to build in more of our domain/advisory knowledge in the same way we would if a client wanted coaching.
  • First version of the ‘ready to go’ prompt library (Prompt Playground was our internal name for it).
  • Implemented Collections to allow us to group together prompts on the new homepage.
  • Updated our preview canvas to support unique snapshots for completed prompts which are now displayed in our prompt collections.
  • Improved error tracking and observability of the application to catch real issues faster.
  • Renamed the ‘PROBLEM SOLVER’ to the ‘CONTEXT BUILDER’ to align with the shift to context engineering and helping people explore AI in a variety of ways.
  • Always: Performance & responsiveness fixes.
  • Tweaks to messaging so this tool as intuitive as possible.

Magneto Mentor v1.0

16 January 2026

  • Mike stepped in early October 2025 and the toddler grew to adult stage quickly and efficiently in his capable hands through to the first release that we weren’t embarrassed about.
  • Mantra at this stage was ‘zero drama’ which is our version of a sustainable business. Getting that ‘built to last attitude’ in early was essential to us because we planned to be a small team with smart tech and big reach. That meant focusing on a robust system that could adapt to business needs and be something we could change easily (without downtime, fuss or spinning wheels).
  • Strong and fast iterative focus at this point. Our biz is quiet in December and January so we slid down the bobsled tunnel as quickly as we could and sacrificed a few ocean swims for build mode.
  • Ground-up rebuild from HTML prototype to a full-stack application (React, FastAPI, PostgreSQL).
  • Flexible tool engine that builds structured prompts, all driven by configuration rather than code.
  • Authentication, anonymous sessions, and multi-tenant architecture built for enterprise from day one (with white-label theming).
  • Automated testing and CI/CD pipeline to move fast without breaking things.

Magneto Mentor v0.5 (Beta)

26 September 2025

  • Design focus to bring the pre-Beta into a visual system.
  • This was the origin stage of the ‘organic, human-led’ visual language for the tools. We spent a lot of time thinking about how to empower people to be the domain expert to lead AI in the right direction and how to express that visually so it would be a fun and light learning experience. We also thought a lot about consistency in the user journey so that things were intuitive.

Magneto Mentor v0.0 (pre-Beta)

14 August 2025

  • Claude prototypes released after many weekends of learning to vibe code with some help from a few smart friends and some deep thinking about how people learn when the world is moving faster than their commitment to learning!
  • The three tools were all a continuous page that would generate a prompt automatically at the end. It all worked. Just didn’t look so great.
  • 100% vibe coded in Claude so we could experiment with the question style, functionality and order.
  • Lots of fundamental decisions and thinking at this stage about where we would sit in the AI workflow and how to play (or not to play) with the fast-moving AI landscape and a set of clients who were on a wildly varied adoption timeline.
  • The originals were 100% HTML. Easy to make and host.

MagnetoMentor.AI: The journey begins again (in a new context)

1 July 2025

  • Day one of knowing ‘we’ll find a way’ to create value for our enterprise clients in the new context of AI communication … without really knowing the best way yet!

Credosity: The journey starts

1 January 2014

We’d already been running our enterprise training business for nine years at this point and had a new goal to help people get ‘just in time’ learning on their business communication.

We did a University of Queensland accelerator, got a few grants, stayed up late on far too many nights, hooked into the Microsoft Innovation Centre and created a VSTO add-in for Microsoft Word and Outlook that would coach you on the fly. The world’s most awful and difficult tech. The pits. Sheer determination got us there.

Was this a good idea? Sure. Did people love it? Oh, yes. Could we get it deployed and updated in enterprise on repeat? No. Game over.

By September 2017 we had made this a cloud tool and used it as a diagnostic for our training. She was well built by a caring team and continues to work today. The AI landscape means this was no longer the best way for people to learn. This jumps us forward to 2025. Curious about Credosity? https://credosity.com/
