Listen to the Journal, and a contact form that sends

Released between 10 and 12 October.

Listen to an article

An article with narration shows a Listen pill with its length beside the date. The player resumes where you stopped, changes speed, and docks at the bottom of the page as a mini player that folds down to a corner pill. It also works from the lock screen. Editors add narration per language, by upload or by link, and mark whether an AI voice read it, in which case readers see a note saying so. At release, 41 English articles had narration.

Articles that read properly

Every article now goes through one sanitised renderer, on the server and in the browser. Code is highlighted and stays left to right in Arabic, tables sit in a framed card with their own scroll, and images open in a lightbox. Arabic charts no longer draw their labels on top of the bars, and a chart read with the app in dark mode no longer paints a dark panel on the light page. In the editor, a link opens an inline field instead of a browser prompt, a logo can sit inside a sentence, and an image can sit beside its text.

A contact form that sends

The form at fkra.ai/contact used to open your mail app. It now sends the message to the team inbox for its topic (rollout, demo, support, API or other), with your address as the reply-to, and nothing is stored. A sent message gets a confirmation that says who will answer. A failed one keeps everything you typed and offers the inbox address to copy. The Contact us, enterprise and Book a demo buttons on the home page open the form with the topic already chosen.

Organizations, managed

A platform admin can now change an organization’s address, with a required reason, and the old address stops working at once. They can also edit any organization, suspend it and reactivate it. Two default roles join Admin and Learner: Instructor builds and teaches, and Manager runs the team without authoring. On a workspace’s own address, the role a member holds there is now the one that applies.

Fixed
