Release Notes
Track the latest updates and improvements to Tough Tongue AI.
June 27, 2025 - Dynamic Variables for Scenarios 🚀
Add {{name}}, {{resume}}, or any variable to your AI Instruction in scenarios. Users get a quick popup to personalize their experience before starting. Users can simply copy-paste their actual resume, job description, or any relevant document. Perfect for interview prep, sales coaching, and training roleplays where the AI needs your real information to provide meaningful practice. Two ways to use: (1) Regular scenarios - simply use variable names in your prompt, and users will see a popup to provide the data. (2) Iframe embeds - pass variables as query parameters with 't_' prefix (e.g., ?t_name=John) which maps to {{name}} in your scenario template.
June 25, 2025 - Control Memory Directly from Scenario Pages
You can now control and edit scenario memory directly from any scenario page! A memory indicator appears when memory is enabled, giving you quick access to modify what AI agents remember you.
June 24, 2025 - Improved AI Conversation Quality
Quality of life upgrade: AI agents are now better at conducting longer sessions and less chatty during conversations. The AI will allow you to take longer pauses and better understand when to speak versus when to stay quiet - though as we know, even humans find it tricky to read the room perfectly! We'd love to hear your feedback on this improvement.
June 23, 2025 - New Iframe Event: onSubmit 📤
Iframe embeds now fire an 'onSubmit' event when post session data submission is completed. This allows you to track when users complete their sessions and redirect them to results pages or trigger follow-up actions.
June 22, 2025 - Enhanced User Instructions Display 💡
We've improved how user instructions are displayed in scenarios with a sleek new overlay design. This update is particularly helpful for abstract scenarios like sales coaching and product management, making it easier to understand your objectives at a glance. Try the enhanced experience in our Product Manager collection!
June 21, 2025 - Multi-Language Support for Coding Scenarios 🚀
Coding scenarios now support multiple programming languages! Previously limited to Python, you can now practice coding interviews in Python, Java, and C++.

June 12, 2025 - Scenario Access Tokens - Secure Private Scenario Iframe 🔐
Introducing Scenario Access Tokens - a secure way to embed private scenarios in your applications! This new API endpoint allows scenario creators to generate short-lived access tokens (valid for 1 hour) that enable iframe embedding of private scenarios without exposing your main API key. Key features: (1) Generate temporary access tokens via API for any scenario you own, (2) Tokens expire after 1 hour for enhanced security, (3) Seamless integration with existing iframe embed code - just add ?accessToken=YOUR_TOKEN, (4) Perfect for server-side implementations where you need to control access to private training content. This enables secure, time-limited access to your proprietary scenarios while keeping your API credentials safe.
June 10, 2025 - Transfer Minutes - Bulk Purchase & Team Distribution 💰
Introducing Transfer Minutes - a seamless way for coaches, managers, and team leaders to enable AI practice sessions across their entire organization. Instead of managing individual subscriptions, you can now: (1) Buy minutes in bulk (e.g., 2000 minutes), (2) Transfer specific amounts to team members via their email (e.g., 100 minutes each), and (3) Team members simply sign in and start practicing - no payment setup required. This removes all friction for your team while giving you full control over minute allocation and usage. Note: Currently invite-only - email help@getarchieai.com for access.
June 10, 2025 - Transparent Background & Countdown Control for Iframe Embeds 🎨
Two new customization options for iframe embeds: (1) Transparent Background - Set the iframe background to transparent to seamlessly blend with your website's design. (2) Disable Countdown Timer - Control the countdown timer display by adding countdown=false to your embed URL.
June 6, 2025 - Scenario Memory Management & Editing 🧠
Introducing comprehensive memory management for your AI scenarios! You can now view, edit, and manage what AI agents remember about you. Features include: edit 'Super Memory' - the core context that shapes how agents understand and respond to you, manage individual conversation memories that are automatically extracted from past interactions, delete unwanted memories, and access all memories through a dedicated management interface in Settings. This gives you full control over your AI agent's contextual understanding.
June 3, 2025 - Tool Configuration for Agents ✨
Introducing a new feature to control Voice AI agents' capabilities for creating cards, drawing diagrams, uploading PDFs, accessing the code editor, and more! You can now enable or disable specific tools for each scenario and auto-add tool instructions, or manually include specific instructions in your AI Instructions for more precise control.

Perfect for organizations and trainers who want to share their content with a professional, branded experience.

Please note that Galaxy medium is experimental and may have limited availability during peak traffic periods.
