What's New

Every update, every version. See exactly what changed.

v0.4.5

What's new

  • Documents Forsive creates now look finished: real tables, nested and numbered lists, clickable links, letterhead with live page numbers, and A4 paper.
  • Multi-file requests are faster and cost fewer credits, because Forsive reads everything it needs in one go instead of one file at a time.

Bug fixes

  • Editing a Word document no longer damages it. Links, pictures, equations, citations and inline formatting all survive an edit, and text in headers, footers and text boxes is now visible to Forsive.
  • Forsive refuses instead of quietly breaking things. Table row changes, tracked changes and equations it cannot edit cleanly now come back with a clear reason, and a large edit asks before spending credits.

v0.4.4

What's new

  • You can now buy credits directly in the app.
  • Generated Excel files now come with a styled header, borders, sensible column widths, and a frozen top row.
  • Generated Word documents now use consistent heading styles and a brand accent.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed a request for both a file pick and instructions sometimes taking three clarifying questions instead of two, with the last one nearly repeating the first.
  • Asking Forsive to tailor an existing document (like a CV for a specific job) now edits that document instead of creating a new one.
  • Fixed the large-folder confirmation box sometimes appearing below the fold where it was easy to miss.

v0.4.3

What's new

  • Forsive now warns you before adding a huge folder (500+ files) that would cost credits on every message, with an estimate of what it'll cost.
  • Clarifying questions now appear one at a time as their own cards — pick an option and the next one appears right away.
  • Added a confirmation when a folder or file finishes uploading, plus a "Show in File Explorer" button.
  • Your credit balance now keeps itself up to date while the app is open, not just after you send a message.
  • File uploads are now limited to file types Forsive can actually open, with a 50MB size cap.

Bug fixes

  • Small edits now cost far less credits.
  • Fixed clarifying questions sometimes showing only "Other."
  • Fixed an inaccurate credit-cost estimate for large files.
  • Fixed a rare duplicate-file bug on no-op edits.
  • Fixed a dropped-connection error message.
  • Fixed an onboarding layout glitch.

v0.4.2

What's new

  • Forsive can now ask a clarifying question when it needs more info, right in the chat, instead of guessing.
  • Clicking the email confirmation link now brings you back into Forsive automatically.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed a connection issue.

v0.4.1

What's new

  • Your free trial now activates after a quick one-click email confirmation, closing a gap that let anyone create unlimited free trials.
  • Share Forsive with a friend from Settings: they get 20 free credits when they install with your code.
  • A new "Contact us" option in Settings lets you send a bug report, feature request, or question straight to the developer.

v0.4.0

What's new

  • Feedback you leave (thumbs-down) is no longer stuck on your device: it's sent straight to the developer so real issues actually get seen.
  • You can now edit a message you already sent and resend it, without retyping the whole thing.
  • Conversation titles are now real, meaningful summaries instead of just the first line of your message, cut off.
  • A fresh, more vivid color redesign throughout the app.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed the assistant sometimes refusing to answer a plain question (like a recipe) by claiming it "doesn't have access," even when nothing about your files was involved.
  • Fixed an occasional "failed to start" error on a slow startup. The app now waits longer instead of giving up right away.

v0.3.0

What's new

  • The app has a new name: Forsive (previously Deskmate), with a new icon and look throughout.
  • Added a Buy Credits panel: top up with a one-time credit pack, no subscription, right from the app when you're running low.
  • Running out of credits now shows a clear prompt to buy more, instead of a plain error message.

v0.2.6

What's new

  • The app now tells you when an update has been downloaded and lets you relaunch to apply it, right from the chat window, no need to manually download a new installer.
  • Each assistant reply now shows which AI model generated it.
  • You can switch models directly from the chat input, without restarting the app; your choice is remembered for next time.
  • Your conversation history now survives an app restart, with a sidebar to resume or delete past conversations.
  • Added a Settings panel and clearer error messages when something goes wrong (invalid key, rate limit, network issue) instead of a raw technical error.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed selected text being invisible in dark mode.
  • Fixed the folder browser not accepting a pasted path.
  • Fixed a handful of document-generation issues: missing dates in generated documents, leftover placeholder text, and the wrong tool being picked when creating a file with an explicit name.

v0.2.3

What's new

  • Laid the groundwork for in-app update checking, so future updates can be installed without a fresh manual download.

v0.1.0

What's new

  • First packaged Windows installer. Point Forsive at a folder, chat with your files, and read, edit, create, and organize documents, all on your own machine.
