On April 29, 2026, Attio published changelog entries that extend Ask Attio from answering questions to performing actions, along with updates for developers, filtering, mobile and performance. The Ask Attio entry says the assistant carries context across a conversation so each action builds on the previous one. A digest entry for the same date adds that Ask Attio hides reasoning steps by default and that Attio is now in the ChatGPT store.
The details
- Ask Attio can send emails, update records and create tasks after showing the action and waiting for approval.
