THE PAGE BEFORE THE FIRST PAGE Push the start page to the right, the way the Today View sits left of a phone's home screen, and Peak shows what is due and what is coming. A month grid, a week grid with real hours, and an agenda beside them — press a day and the list narrows to it, press it again and it widens back. It shows both halves of a day: tasks with a due date arrive from your boards, and events you make here sit beside them. Overdue work is listed first, because it is the only part that is already a problem. EVENTS, WHICH BELONG TO NOTHING BUT A DATE A title, a time or a whole day, where it is, a link, notes, and a repetition — daily, weekly, fortnightly, monthly, yearly or every weekday, with or without an end date. Press an event anywhere it appears to change or remove it. Something that runs past midnight is drawn on both days, marked as carrying on rather than stopping at twelve. Peak AI reads and writes the same list you see. PROJECTS A project now has an address of its own. It opens as a tab, can be pinned and restored, and shows a dashboard rather than a form: what it holds, what it is mostly made of, and the conversations, sites, notes and boards gathered in it, each openable. It can also hold material rather than links to material. Add pictures, clips, recordings and documents from the library or from the Finder, and they are kept with the project — delete the original and the project still has it. Peak AI can read them, so asking about a screenshot filed in a project now attaches the picture instead of refusing it. Projects can be given an icon, a colour and a picture of their own. APPLE INTELLIGENCE CAN USE PEAK'S TOOLS Choosing Apple's on-device model used to mean a model that could only talk — asked to look something up, it described searching rather than searched. It can now search the web, read a page, browse, and look through your library and working files, with every step shown in the trace. GROWTH A new tool for the work of being found, under Intermission → Tools. SEO Audit reads a page the way a crawler gets it and reports what is missing or too long. App Store metadata holds a listing with Apple's own limits counted against every field, and a separate draft per platform. Neither needs an account or a key. PLUS A repository file can be edited and proposed back as a pull request — always on a new branch, never merged, and Peak always asks before it opens one, showing the repository larger than anything else on the panel. Chats name themselves from what they are about rather than from your first four words, and the naming runs on a cheap model — or never leaves the machine at all. Peak works out which tools a message needs and leaves out the rest, which is both cheaper and quicker to start. Timelines report their real size in the Library instead of Zero KB. Songs, records and artists can be archived rather than deleted, the Waveform library can be searched, and a song archived there is now properly hidden from Discover. Asking a filled genre for four more artists adds four more.

A VIDEO STUDIO ON A REAL TIMELINE Peak has had a video project for a while. It now has an editor worth opening. Start from Intermission → Tools → Timeline Structures: four finished cuts — an announcement, a three-point explainer, an open/middle/close story, and a set of lower thirds — or a blank timeline if you would rather. Clips sit on rows that overlap, so a title can lie over a shot and a music bed can run under all of them. Drag a clip's ends to trim it, drag past the end of a card to hold it longer, drag past the end of a shot to repeat it. Fade handles sit in the corners of every clip. There is undo, copy and paste, and the delete key does what you expect. Every project is cut for a frame you choose — widescreen, 4K, square, portrait, vertical, or the exact sizes the App Store wants for an app preview — and everything you drop in is fitted to it. Drop a tall photograph onto a widescreen edit and it letterboxes rather than reshaping the whole video. Words on a transparent card, bars, discs, blocks and eight symbols, each in one of seven colours, all laid over the picture rather than beside it. SLIDES BECOME CLIPS A deck from Slides can be laid onto a timeline. Each slide is drawn once and imported as an ordinary still, so it trims, fades and moves like anything else. An empty project takes the deck's shape. THE SAME TIMELINE, READ AS MUSIC Switch the pane above the timeline to a mixer: a fader, mute, solo and a meter for every row, and a record that turns while it plays. Give the project a tempo and the ruler counts bars and beats instead of seconds, and clips snap to the grid. Bounce the sound on its own to an .m4a — the same mix the video export uses, so the two cannot disagree. PEAK AI CAN SEE WHAT IT MAKES Ask it to continue a video and it looks at the edit as a grid of frames, takes the last frame of the cut, and generates a clip that starts from exactly there. It can also cut, style, title and rearrange what is already on the timeline. It could already tell whether a slide's contents ran off the page or landed on top of each other, but it could not see the result — so it wrote confident paragraphs about designs it had never laid eyes on. It now draws every slide small, tiles them into one picture, and looks at that before it says a word. The same picture is attached to the reply, so you are looking at what it looked at. Turn on the new Slide Design skill and decks arrive with one palette held across every slide, a single type hierarchy, a background that is actually painted, and shapes only where they hold something. A MORNING BRIEF ON THE START PAGE Under the weather chip there is now a card that gathers the day's headlines on the topics you choose — World, Tech, Markets, Local, Sport, Science, or up to two of your own — and shows what you were last in the middle of. Every story carries the publication it came from, and every link opens in a tab. It is off until you turn it on, and when it is off Peak makes no searches for it at all. Gathering happens at most once a day: on your tap, or the first time you open the start page after a time you set. Nothing runs in the background — open Peak at eleven and the brief arrives at eleven. Every headline links to a page Peak actually fetched. Anything the model writes that cannot be tied back to one of those pages is dropped rather than shown, because a citation that looks right and goes nowhere real is worse than no brief at all. TWO TABS ON SCREEN AT ONCE On iPad, in landscape or split view: press and hold any tab you are not on and choose Show Beside, then whether it goes left or right. Both pages stay live — a video keeps playing in one while you read the other. The arrangement survives quitting Peak, because a split is something you chose rather than something you ended up with.

A MODEL THAT RUNS ON YOUR IPHONE Settings → MLX. Download a model, pick it in any chat, and the prompt, the page you are reading and the reply all stay on the device. No account, no key, no bill. Peak suggests a model your device can actually hold, and refuses one that will not fit rather than being closed halfway through an answer. BORROW A MODEL FROM YOUR MAC A phone can now run a model that is sitting on a Mac in the same room. Switch on Let Peers Use My Models there, and its models appear here under Nearby Mac, named after the machine they live on. The reply streams back as it is written. This is what makes a small device useful: a 4GB iPhone holds a model of a few hundred megabytes, and the Mac beside it holds one many times larger. Prompt and answer travel over the same encrypted Mesh link as everything else — no account, no cloud, nothing that leaves the room. APPLE INTELLIGENCE Where the system can run it, Apple's own model appears in the model menu beside Peak's. No download, no key. It answers questions; it cannot yet use Peak's tools, so it will not search the web or build a site. EIGHTEEN SITE TEMPLATES The Site Builder's gallery is no longer empty. Finished pages filed by design movement — brutalism, Swiss, art deco, cyberpunk, grunge — so you can pick by how something should look instead of by what it is made of. Each card runs the real page rather than showing a picture of it. Take one and you get an editable copy with no build step, nothing to install, and no request that leaves the machine. SEARCH YOUR LIBRARY WITHOUT UPLOADING IT Finding what you saved by meaning rather than by keyword can now be indexed by a model on your own device. Settings → MLX → Search. TABS • Pin the ones you keep — long-press a tab and choose Pin Tab. A pinned tab shrinks to its icon and stays at the front of the strip. • Shift-Command-T reopens the last tab you closed, up to ten back, with its history and scroll position. • Close Other Tabs, which leaves the pinned ones alone. MAKE • Reading without the page, on iPhone and iPad: long-press a web tab and choose it. Videos come back as transcripts, read from the caption track rather than a panel that only exists on the desktop site. • Extrude to 3D turns a traced outline into a solid you can turn and light, with sliders for thickness and bevel and Download OBJ for Blender or Quick Look. It runs on your device — nothing is uploaded. • Decks and animations cross the mesh now, pictures and all. • Diagrams share one set of shades and corners, so a set of them reads as one set, and a deck keeps one accent throughout. FIXED A project that arrived twice while syncing could close Peak every time the library was drawn, and nothing merged the pair, so it did not resolve on its own. The library now folds them back into one, keeping every file from both. Also: a very long animation no longer closes the app; an export that fails stops and says why instead of waiting forever; exporting no longer freezes the interface; a picture added to a slide is drawn; the reader fits a phone; and two photographs taken in the same second are both kept.

THE ANIMATION STUDIO Ask Peak AI to animate something and it opens in a studio of its own: the page in the middle, a playhead beneath it, and a row for every element showing each moment it changes. Move the playhead, choose an element, and record how it looks right then. Anything can move — position, scale, rotation, colour, and how much of an outline is drawn — each on its own schedule. Any of Lucide's 1,714 icons can draw itself on a stroke at a time, from real curves rather than a picture of one. Export the whole thing as a looping GIF or a video, scenes dissolving into one another rather than cutting, and share it straight from the sheet. Every explainer video Peak renders is now saved as an animation too, so a video is something you can go back into and re-time rather than only something you can watch. IMAGE TO SVG Add a logo, silhouette or line drawing in Tools and Peak traces it into vector curves on your device — no upload, no account, no key. Choose the level of detail, save the SVG, or copy the path straight into an animation. Peak AI can trace the same way: attach a picture and ask it to animate your logo, and it uses the real outline instead of drawing something like it from memory. SLIDES Ask for a deck and it opens in a tab of its own. Tap anything on a slide to move or change it, pick the size everything is drawn and exported at — a presentation, an App Store screenshot, a link preview — and export a PNG per slide straight to the share sheet. A deck can also be opened onto a whiteboard as its parts rather than as a picture of itself. ANSWERS YOU CAN CHECK Pages an answer was built from are listed under it, each marked as a search result or as read in full, and each opening in a tab. Peak builds that list from what it actually fetched rather than from what the model says it read. READING AND FINDING Find on Page searches the page you are reading, with every match highlighted and a tap to step through them. One button turns the page in front of you into clean text — pages that build themselves as you scroll keep their text, videos come back as transcripts, and discussions come back with their comments. Copy any of it as Markdown with its title and source. BLOCKING THAT DOES NOT BREAK SITES The content blocker was rebuilt around exact hosts instead of matching words in an address, so a site's own analytics page or script is no longer refused by accident. Rules apply to what a page loads rather than to the page itself, so the blocker can never stop you reaching a site. MAKE AND CONNECT Diagrams from a sentence, in an answer or on a whiteboard. Music, speech and generated video, with soundtracks merged in one step. Mesh now finds nearby devices over peer-to-peer Wi-Fi with no router and no internet between them. AND Tips and tricks, searchable, behind the pack in the corner of the start page. A start page that draws its own mountain when it opens. Dozens of fixes across reading, rendering, syncing and playback.

Peak 1.4 is our biggest update yet — a major expansion of the browser workspace. • Build complete sites and apps. New Site Builder workflows support multi-page projects, reusable media, Tailwind, Lucide icons, three.js, interactive maps, and Scroll Worlds. PeakUI projects can also be exported as native multiplatform Xcode apps. • Projects and Library. Group conversations, sites, notes, task boards, whiteboards, and reference files around one project. Carry visible project instructions and memory between conversations, and find created or attached media in one searchable library. • Smarter AI tools. Peak can research pages, read PDFs and images, extract a live site’s visual design, reuse existing media, edit site files in place, run pages, and visually inspect its own results. • On-device voice and reading. Dictate messages, transcribe recordings locally, hear replies in the system voice, and turn articles, YouTube videos, and Reddit threads into clean Markdown. • A rebuilt Local Mesh. Mesh now uses Apple’s Network framework for direct nearby connections, with clearer sharing controls for tabs, chats, notes, boards, whiteboards, sites, code projects, and games. • More private and predictable. New controls cover models hosted in China, generated-media provenance, video-spending limits, and secure Keychain-backed credentials. • More dependable conversations. Drafts survive tab changes, sent text clears reliably, duplicate sends are prevented, and completed agent work is preserved and summarized if a provider disconnects. Plus interface refinements, new tools, provider improvements, and fixes across Mac, iPhone, and iPad.
