Automate Order Tracking and Cancellations With New Shopify Guide Templates
We’ve added Track Order and Cancel Order to our library of Shopify Guide templates. These templates do the heavy lifting for you by auto-populating your specific Shopify storefront actions and logic. Whether you manage one store or several, you can now deploy sophisticated workflows in a fraction of the time, moving from draft to active with just a few clicks.
Voice AI Call Recordings Now Available Within Conversation Review
Admins and Managers can now play back Voice AI recordings directly in Conversation Review. Listen to exactly how AI handled the call, spot coaching moments, and improve performance—all in one place.
See Exactly Which Quality Checks Pass or Fail
Quality Check results now show pass/fail status and the reasoning behind each one in a simple table. Quickly spot where AI is performing and where to focus improvements.

New Product Names Roll Out
We've updated our product UI to reflect our new naming.
What you'll see:
Gladly Sidekick is now Gladly
Gladly Hero is now Gladly Team
Everything works the same—just clearer names. Help docs will update over the coming weeks.
Need a refresher on what's changing and why?
Faster, Smarter AI Responses
We've added Anthropic as a sub-processor to power how Gladly AI summarizes and analyzes Conversations. You'll see more accurate context and smarter responses across every Customer Conversation.

Message Formatting Fixed for Zendesk Users
Fixed – Agents now see properly formatted messages in the Zendesk interface. Previously, line breaks were lost when proxying user Chat messages from the Gladly Chat widget to Zendesk.
Accurate Conversation Counts
Fixed – The ‘Conversations Created’ measure in Conversation Metrics explore now reflects accurate totals. We resolved an issue that occasionally caused the same Conversation to be counted more than once.

Learn what it really takes to build the foundation AI needs to succeed in 2026.
