Hi Taskaders 👋

We’re back with another exciting update to make our platform work faster and smarter for you and your team. Give it a try and let us know what you think!

> **TL;DR:** AI Chat (Beta), bulk AI summary, and Smart Search shipped in March 2023 marked Taskade's leap into conversational AI. Today Taskade ships [multi-agent chat](https://www.taskade.com/agents), spans multiple project views, frontier AI models from top AI labs, and 100+ [integrations](https://www.taskade.com/integrations) — and [Taskade Genesis](https://www.taskade.com/create) turns any prompt into a living app.

> **Then → Now:** AI Chat Beta + bulk summary + Smart Search (2023) → today's [multi-agent chat and multi-layer search](https://www.taskade.com/agents), [Automations](https://www.taskade.com/automate), and [thousands of starter templates](https://www.taskade.com/templates).

The same Smart Search backbone now powers [semantic search across files and agents](https://www.taskade.com/learn/projects/search), and [AI Agents v2](https://www.taskade.com/agents) can call it as one of their [built-in tools](https://www.taskade.com/learn/agents/agent-tools). Try a multi-agent chat in [Taskade Genesis](https://www.taskade.com/create) or browse [community apps](https://www.taskade.com/apps) that use it.

## ⚙️ **New Workspace & Folder Settings**

We have introduced three new folder and workspace settings that will make your project and team management experience even better. [Learn more](https://www.taskade.com/learn/projects/team-folders).

Here’s how they work:

1. **Enable hide completed**: Hide completed tasks for every project in a folder. 

3. **Hide chat**: Hide the chat box by default for all project members. This setting gives you a minimalist, distraction-free workspace to support deep focus.

5. **Disable share link**: Restrict access to a project via email invitations only to ensure that only authorized team members can see the document.
