AI Gets Smarter

• Create with AI — bulk apply: Select multiple items and apply an AI template to all of them at once, dramatically speeding up AI-assisted content creation at scale.
• Create with AI — image & file support: Attach images and documents as input when generating content with AI — ideal for enriching product data from spec sheets, photos, or reference files.
• SELECT.GPT can now read images and files: Upload visual or document assets directly into SELECT.GPT queries so AI can interpret and respond based on actual product visuals and documentation.

New Web Client Capabilities

• Scheduling in Web Client: Create and manage scheduled tasks directly in the web — no desktop client required.
• Product Comparison: Compare two or more products side-by-side in the web client to quickly spot differences in feature values.
• Import Wizard Data Previewer: Validate that your data sheet is correctly structured before you begin mapping it to Perfion — catch issues before they become import problems.
• Mixed Item Channels: Configure channels that span multiple item types, enabling more flexible channel structures.
• Video Playback: Play video assets directly in the web client without leaving the item editor.
• License Usage Monitor: See real-time license usage and SKU consumption from within the web client — no more guessing if you're near your limit.

Security & Compliance

• Audit logging: User management changes and authentication events are now logged, giving administrators a trail of who did what and when.
• SIEM integration: Export audit logs to your organization's Security Information and Event Management system for centralized security monitoring.
• Configurable password policies: Administrators can now enforce minimum length, complexity requirements, and expiry periods for Perfion-managed passwords.

Supplier Portal

• Full web-based administration: Configure and manage Supplier Portal directly in the web client, including support for multiple configurations.

Quality of Life

• Hierarchy path for referenced values: See where in the hierarchy a feature value is from, both i ngrid and item editor — for example, a Category of "Coffee Makers" — you can now see exactly where that value lives in its own hierarchy (e.g. Coffee Equipment > Brewers > Coffee Makers).
• Set your default landing section: Users can now configure which section of the web client they land on after logging in.
• Keyboard navigation improvements: Value selectors are now fully keyboard-navigable for faster, mouse-free workflows.

130+ bug fixes across the web client, core engine, and integrations.
