New Slack Thread Nudges
Thor will now nudge Slack threads which have been abandoned or forgotten and still require resolution or further assistance. This helps ensure that no conversation falls through the cracks.New Thor MCP Server (Beta)
You can now connect Thor to your existing AI workflows via MCP. Ask any question that Thor is already good at answering, get a list of your work activity, and prepare for daily standups. Contact us to get early access.Improved Standup Quality & Detail
Standups have received a number of quality improvements:- GitHub commits made outside the main branch and without a linked PR now contribute to work activity.
- Improved detection of blockers, which are now surfaced more prominently in standup summaries.
- Work activity summaries now more clearly highlight high-level goals and reduce technical jargon.
- Every standup summary now includes additional detail and clear source attribution, with call-outs for recently shipped or completed work items.
- If your Slack server has application-specific emojis, Thor will now make use of them.
Improved Issue Search Accuracy
We’re continuing to make Thor’s internal data memory management more context-aware and optimized for accuracy of issue search. Asking Thor to find that one specific issue you vaguely remember working on 6 months ago is now more reliable.Improved Meeting Attendance Detection
Thor now more accurately detects meeting attendance even when a user has not RSVP’d to the calendar event.Improved Meeting Transcript Reliability
Missing meeting transcripts are now detected and users are prompted to fix the problem with clear instructions. Additionally, highly delayed Google Meet transcript processing is now handled more reliably, ensuring transcripts are correctly linked to their meetings.Improved Issue Creation Speed
Issues are now created 2x faster. Thor will continue to perform additional analysis, refinement, categorization, and grooming in the background. Thor will prompt you if any additional human input is needed.Improved Response Speed
Thor’s initial response time to prompts has been significantly improved. In some cases, the first reply previously took several minutes — this should no longer be the case.Minor Weekly Report Accuracy
Weekly recap (Friday) and kickoff (Monday) reports now more accurately exclude work done over the weekend.Minor Post-Meeting Action Item Due Dates
Post-meeting action items will now default to end-of-day when no specific due date is mentioned, ensuring no commitment is missed. Thor will now hunt you down if you say, “Guys, let’s do it!” but don’t actually say who owns the work, or when it’s due.Technical Google Data Connection Reliability
Fixed reliability issues with Google data connections and re-authentication flows.January 2026
New Standup Reviews for Managers
For managers who want to help their teams stay on track, Thor can now automatically send a list of each team member’s standup summary to their manager. See Standup Reviews for Managers for more details.Improved Standup Formatting & Context
Standup messages from Thor now include more context (GitHub commits, meeting reminders, past & upcoming meetings) and more detailed formatting of work items and sources.Improved Standup Corrections/Feedback
You can now reply to Thor’s standup summary with feedback and corrections, and Thor will incorporate this feedback into your tracked work activity.Improved Standup Time Configuration
Users can now individually configure the time of day when they want to receive their standup summary by going to the “Home” tab in the Thor Slack app and clicking “Your Notifications”.Improved Meeting Context in Tasks
When Thor creates a task on your behalf, it will now automatically include the context of the meeting in the task description. This meeting context is weighted based on relevance and aims to enrich context for coding agents.Improved Automatic Reminder Controls
In the past Thor would sometimes try to be “too eager” when acting on post-meeting action items, and attempt to automatically send messages and create tasks you never asked for. Moving forward, Thor will only do this if it was explicitly told to do so.Improved Prompt for Missing Task Context
When you ask Thor to create a task on your behalf, Thor will now detect if it doesn’t have enough useful context and prompt you for additional information. This helps ensure accuracy and completeness of the task description.Minor Support for Google Calendar Group Invites
When checking for meeting attendees, Thor will now automatically expand group invites (eg. “engineering@acme.com”) into individual attendees to ensure that each team member’s attendance is captured accurately.Minor User Controls for Linear & GitHub Connections
Individual users can now open the “Your Connections” dialog and ensure Thor has correctly linked their personal Linear & GitHub accounts to the organization. This can be used to diagnose and fix data connection issues.Minor Detection of Unconnected Meeting Participants
When Thor detects that you attended a meeting with someone in your organization who hasn’t configured Thor yet, it will now notify you of this and offer to share the meeting notes with them.Minor Meeting Cancellation Support
Thor now properly detects and handles cancelled meetings. They will be removed from context for standups and reminders.Technical Upgraded to Gemini 3.0
Thor uses several different AI models under-the-hood to perform different tasks. We’ve recently upgraded our base models to Gemini 3.0, which should result in improved performance and accuracy.December 2025
