Changes logged
June 11, 2026
the customer portal, rebuilt and named. A full dashboard with Overview, Storefronts, Invoices, Reports, Messages, and Settings, in a clean light theme your customers can read on any device.
customers drop a pin right on the artwork and write what needs to change. Your team sees every pin, replies inline, and resolves it when it's handled.
"v3 of 3" with change notes per version, so everyone can see what changed between revisions and recall old art at a glance.
partial payments, account credit that applies at checkout, and a pay-all button that settles multiple invoices in one go.
inks from 3,200+ Pantones plus your shop's own formulas, threads from a ~19,000-color embroidery library, vinyl from ~726 colors — surfaced automatically for each line's decoration method.
the full line-item builder, a guided step-by-step flow, or just upload files and notes. Reorders prefill the same art, sizes, and options from a past job in one click.
spend by month and by decoration method, order history, and tax / exemption summaries, filtered by real date ranges.
customers message your team right from the portal, and replies land back in their inbox.
per-event email and text notification preferences, saved carrier accounts for ship-on-their-number, a billing contact, profile updates, and a proper sign-out.
confirms their details, notification level, and team contacts in a few quick steps, and it's replayable anytime from the compass in the top bar.
customers upload label PDFs per box, write packing instructions your floor sees on the job, and can lift their own holds once an issue is sorted.
connected Shopify stores sync orders into the portal, and one click turns an order into a job and links the two.
your logo, your business name, your accent color, zero Kontraktr branding. New settings section, alongside per-customer payment terms (deposits, net terms, pay-on-pickup) that drive what each customer sees at checkout.
pinned customer comments flow into the InkRelay plugin feed, your artist replies and resolves from inside Illustrator, and the customer gets notified.
June 8, 2026
your new production calendar, built for the shop floor. The Timeline view sizes every job by its actual run-time, spans multi-day runs, draws a live "now" line, and stacks per-press capacity bars so you can see what each press is carrying at a glance.
grab a job on the Timeline to move it, drag its edge to change how long it runs, and the schedule updates instantly. Group the board by press or by operator.
Month, Week, Day, Agenda, and Year views, so the same schedule fits however you plan.
a shop-capacity gauge, pieces scheduled, on-time risk, estimated-vs-actual pulled live from your press timers, machine load, and an at-risk-jobs list, all in one rail.
one click auto-suggests a balanced schedule across your presses so no station sits idle while another drowns.
tell Kalendar when you're open and what you're aiming for, and the capacity math follows.
the rebuilt AI mockup studio. Feed in your real catalog product photos and your artwork, and Kanvas renders photorealistic mockups of your design on the actual garment.
pick front, back, sleeves, folded, top-down, or close-up detail, and batch every colorway plus multiple garments in a single pass.
from chest and back to sleeves, yoke, and inside neck label on tops, down to hips, thighs, legs, and seat on bottoms.
about 19,000 thread colors across 38 brands, with a searchable picker that loads only when you open it, so there's zero page-load cost.
about 726 colors across 27 product lines, with the same instant searchable picker.
DTG, Sublimation, Vinyl, Laser Engraving, and UV Printing, each with its own spec fields so quotes and work orders capture the right details.
back out of a change without rebuilding the line item.
per-group cost and ink breakdown follow you down the builder, with guardrails that flag a $0 or unpriced quote before it goes out.
a cleanly formatted quote, bigger mockups, and a clear light theme your customers can actually read.
multiple department views, live press timers with overtime, a job-detail magnifier, and package tracking, ready to cast to a shop TV.
one-click "Cast to TV" sends the view straight to a Chromecast or smart TV.
start typing and go.
capture more than one cure setting when a run needs it.
your central library for artwork and renders.
May 29, 2026
find your next clients. Surface local businesses, teams, leagues, and events that need custom printing, build a lead pipeline, and chase the work. Launch it from the Products menu.
every location's active jobs, month-to-date revenue, outstanding balances, headcount, and average turnaround in a single command-center view.
customers open their job's studio from the portal and upload reference mockups themselves, no email back-and-forth.
reconnecting your Outlook inbox now works the same as Gmail.
a customer's credit balance now applies cleanly when you build their invoice.
accepting or declining a bid now works end to end: the winning shop is notified and the other bids are released.
the multi-location dashboard, the customer design studio, and a few others — now populate their data reliably.
removing a member from a channel now works as expected.
adding participants now saves correctly.
full Direction-D redesign across the new-order flow, jobs tab, approvals, messages, and my-info. Light/dark studio chrome, sticky right rail, proper mobile breakpoints, and a bottom-dock tab bar on phones.
customers drop teardrop comment pins anywhere on a mockup, thread replies under each pin, mark resolved when the issue is addressed. Pin coordinates are stored fractional so they render correctly at any zoom.
mockup left, decisions middle, history right. One-click Approve, Request Changes, or Decline with structured rejection categories so the shop knows why.
by status, by location, by recent activity, with empty-state copy and animated transitions.
every customer comment pin shows up in the dashboard with the customer's note, the full reply thread, and resolve/reopen actions. Resolutions stamp the staff member who closed them for the audit trail.
the existing Fabric.js drawing annotations and the new comment pins share one panel; staff flip between modes with a single pill.
Live + V1 / V2 / V3 … swap the displayed image instantly. "Viewing V2 · changed PMS 185 to 186" badge confirms what you're looking at. Annotation entry locks to Live so feedback never lands on an archived snapshot.
/signup with a valid beta invite code spins up a real database, pushes the schema, seeds the admin user, and emails the new shop's URL. Total run time: about a minute.
pick a plan and bounce through Stripe Checkout for subscription setup right after provisioning. Free tier skips checkout and lands on the dashboard.
customers reach their portal at your-shop.kontraktr.io/portal/{customer} with the wildcard SSL covering every subdomain.
every tenant is tagged direct, demo, imported, or partner so the audience segmenter can drive the right drip campaign per cohort.
expired demo sandboxes (48h TTL) are deleted automatically: Neon branch removed, tenant row dropped, no orphaned billing.
fires every cron route once and reports green/red per step so you don't have to wait for the daily schedule to spot a broken handler.
prune old demo accounts and stale beta tenants without flipping through individual pages.
stack traces in Sentry now show readable filenames and line numbers instead of minified chunk hashes. Maps upload as a post-build step so the build itself stays under the 16 GB ceiling.
drop one image tag in your shop's footer and it auto-updates every 30 seconds.
every widget reads on the dark background; light-mode status badge wraps in a darker chip so it doesn't disappear.
LLM provider names, internal architecture details, and exact platform-fee figures are no longer surfaced on marketing pages, changelog, or docs.
clicking the top release no longer jumps to the 4th entry. Observer now picks the topmost intersecting release and locks during programmatic scrolls.
effect now respects pointer enter/leave properly.
April 19, 2026

analyses lux + uniformity at each press station against ANSI/IES RP-7 and ISO 3664 color-matching standards. Gives a 0–100 score with specific fix recommendations.
minimap, lighting panel, mode hints, and live-shop stat bar no longer overlap in Vizion or editor modes. Every HUD element has a dedicated safe zone.
removes the translucent XY/YZ/XZ drag planes that rendered as giant vertical rectangles when selecting near room center.
pointer-lock isn't a touch API, so we hide the button below sm rather than fail silently.
hidden below sm, scaled 90% on sm-md, full size md+. Click coords corrected through the CSS scale transform.
dropdown triggers and static links now share a single typography constant so they render at the same size.
before initialization' (two TDZ bugs where hooks referenced state/callbacks declared later).
