Storylane released four updates on January 26, 2026. Sharing moved into a side panel available in the Storylane Chrome extension, Gmail and HubSpot, where users can generate and personalize demo links. Presenter seats gained the ability to set up their own engagement alerts rather than relying on admins. Comparison mode in analytics now supports custom date ranges on both sides of a comparison. Demo autoplay gained an Auto Mode that times each step automatically. The entry also said a new editor was live only for free users at that point.
