0.4.0 ran for a long stretch, from autumn 2025 into the middle of 2026. It is the release where the app stopped being only a text generator and started keeping track of things: what a scene looked like, what had already happened, and whether what came back was safe to show.
Chapter images. Chapters could carry their own artwork, cached so that revisiting a chapter did not regenerate it, with click-to-zoom for a closer look.
Automatic content screening. Generated images are checked before they are shown, and text is checked too. Anything flagged is held back rather than published.
Story analysis. A separate mode for interrogating a story rather than continuing it.
Continuity that holds up. Timeline extraction, dialogue handling and a chapter rework pass, so a story fifty chapters deep still remembers who did what.
Several chapters at once. Generation moved onto a background queue, so a request no longer blocked on whatever else was running.
Remembered instructions. Custom generation instructions stayed attached to a story instead of being retyped each chapter.
Self-hosted analytics. Usage measurement runs on our own infrastructure, with no third-party tracker in the page.
