New features, improvements, and model updates.

July 2026

Color palettes appear in prompt autocomplete

The @ autocomplete now previews color snippet palettes directly while keeping dark palettes readable.

Color snippets capture palettes and ramps

Snippets can now store reusable colors, palettes, and ramps with a redesigned editor and richer previews.

Contact sheet splitting is smarter

Contact-sheet outputs can be split more reliably with better grid detection, explicit tile layouts, and clearer overlays.

Lineage and lightbox browsing feel faster

Expanded lineage rings reopen quickly, mixed-ratio stacks open with better framing, and lightbox actions are more responsive.

Seedream 5.0 Pro is available

Seedream 5.0 Pro can now be used for image generation, editing, avatar, previz, and product-swap workflows.

Fullscreen galleries open faster across apps

Create, Compose, Canvas, Nodes, and Review now use smoother gallery panels with better thumbnail loading.

Snippets and image defaults are lighter

Text-only snippets can be versioned with custom posters, and Nano Banana Lite is now the default for image generation.

Project archives stay out of the way

Archived projects are hidden from pickers, gallery browsing, and search while gallery searches keep more stack context.

Gallery order and lineage views are steadier

Gallery cards now keep their expected order while lineage views preserve more sibling context.

Gallery browsing stays filled at more sizes

Gallery rows now render correctly with UI scaling and keep loading when smaller cards leave open space.

Compose shader controls are richer

Compose adds more stylized shader options, mask-aware effects, and a faster way to fit assets to the canvas.

Gallery stacks and job updates respond faster

Large galleries, stack actions, and queued jobs now update with fewer stale states and shorter waits.

Gallery search refreshes more predictably

Gallery and reference searches now start in keyword mode and keep existing results visible while refreshes run.

Gemini Omni video and Nano Banana Lite are available

Gemini now covers fast 720p video generation and editing, plus a lower-cost Nano Banana image model for quick drafts.

June 2026

Model pricing is clearer

The pricing table now hides unavailable models and reflects lower costs for select Nano Banana and Grok video options.

Prompt snippets stay responsive

Snippet galleries and prompt-token cards now load faster and keep edit/copy actions available.

Gallery and version browsing is smoother

Large galleries, stacks, and version chains now load, search, expand, and switch with fewer stale states.

Checkout captures tax details

Stripe Checkout can now collect billing address and tax information for subscriptions and credit purchases.

Gallery stacks load faster

Stacked gallery results now hydrate, filter, and reopen with less waiting and fewer stale previews.

Checkout supports localized prices

Stripe adaptive pricing is enabled so eligible checkouts can show local currency pricing.

Live queue status is clearer

The header now tracks active, full, failed, and completed generation work across Hylope apps.

Compose layers gain shader effects

Add stylized per-layer effects like halftone, duotone, pixel sort, glow, glass distortion, and contour lines in Compose.

More Avatar and Kling model options

Avatar portrait and outfit flows support more image providers, while Kling 3 gains Turbo video generation support.

Job limit guidance is consistent

Pricing, billing docs, and queue-limit messages now show the same concurrent job limits for each plan.

Gallery stacks and restored outputs are steadier

Gallery stacks, status updates, active versions, and reopened outputs now hold their place more reliably while work completes.

Krea 2 Medium Turbo and finer image controls

Krea image generation gains a faster Medium Turbo model, native-style toggle polish, and intensity, complexity, and movement controls.

Settings and billing are easier to manage

Hylope adds a dedicated Settings surface with clearer billing, workspace, team, and API token management.

HappyHorse 1.1 video models

Hylope adds HappyHorse 1.1 text-to-video, image-to-video, and reference-to-video models, with lower 1080p pricing and clearer availability states.

Quick Edit returns to where you started

Closing Quick Edit now sends you back to the originating Canvas, Compose, or Gallery view, with smoother gallery and snippet behavior around it.

Larger previews and steadier version chains

Hylope now uses larger output previews and preserves version history more reliably when comparing or reopening generated assets.

Prompt limits are visible before you generate

Hylope now counts prompt length against provider-specific limits in the prompt bar and editor, including snippet text and rewritten prompts.

Style presets and model availability are clearer

Style presets can now load into generation inputs more naturally, while unavailable or capped models are easier to spot before submission.

Snippets and preset templates behave more like creative building blocks

Hylope now applies text snippets more reliably in style and reference workflows, previews their text on loaded cards, and ships reusable preset templates globally.

Built-in presets make reusable styles easier to reach

Hylope adds a shared preset library for styles and snippets, so curated looks and prompt building blocks are available directly inside the picker flows you already use.

Microsoft MAI joins the image model lineup

Hylope adds Microsoft's MAI image models for both generation and editing, with a faster preview option and a higher-fidelity alternative.

Compose now has active versions and better sketch tools

Compose scenes can now pin an active version, delete an entire composition cleanly, erase paint layers, and turn rough sketches into storyboard frames faster.

Krea, Ideogram, and Clarity refresh the model lineup

Hylope adds Krea and Ideogram image generation options, expands Ideogram remixing, and makes Clarity the default upscale path for both images and video.

Media browsing and upscales feel more reliable

Hylope keeps extracted frames and selected versions in context, makes upscale downloads more dependable, and surfaces clearer upscale details.

Shared assets are clearer in Gallery and Review

Shared assets now carry their own badge in Gallery, and review links can update favorites and asset statuses directly from the shared view.

Video Edit, guide frames, and styled first frames

Hylope now has a dedicated Video Edit workflow with guide-frame tools, styled first-frame generation, and richer video prompting for faster shot iteration.

Key assets now have variants, versions, and lineage

Key assets are now first-class assets with their own variants, version history, mobile lightbox access, and clearer lineage across generation workflows.

Simpler project folder management

Project and folder organization is easier to manage with a flatter sidebar flow, clearer Unsorted handling, and faster project settings access.

Project credit totals

Project settings now show the total credits consumed by generations and snippets inside that project.

May 2026

Gemini image models and thinking controls

Gemini image generation now uses the GA Nano Banana models, adds Nano Banana 2 and Pro options, and exposes thinking controls for supported workflows.

LTX video reformat and creative upscale

Hylope now includes LTX 2.3 video reformatting and a new LTX 2.3 creative video upscale option for expanding and enhancing existing clips.

Quick Edit inpainting

Quick Edit now runs direct mask-based inpainting, adds Nano Banana, and makes the image patch workflow faster to launch from an existing asset.

Video compare playback stays in sync

Video compare views now keep playback aligned and avoid duplicate resolved-audio playback while you review edits.

Project key assets and aspect-ratio preview

Key assets can now live at the project level, accept new versions directly from Gallery, and image-edit reformat previews now show the target frame before you generate.

Topaz model refresh and Imagen 4 deprecation

Topaz upscaling now exposes newer recovery and cleanup models, and Imagen 4 is marked for shutdown so teams can move new image workflows early.

Search Gallery with snippets

Gallery search now accepts snippet tokens, so you can find assets created with a saved prompt ingredient or template.

Smoother visual template editing

Visual template snippets now have a cleaner editing flow for prompts, fields, posters, and generated previews.

Faster key asset navigation

The Gallery drawer and Lightbox now make it easier to inspect and move between key assets in a project or snippet workflow.
