New Features

1. Lead Capture Agentic Acton is now available - perhaps our most anticipated feature yet:

   2. Collected leads can be exported as CSV.
   3. Collected leads can be instantly sent to Zapier.

      1. If used with Drive Conversions - Lead Capture agent continuously works in the background collecting every bit of information about the user and their company or use case as possible.
      2. If used without Drive Conversions - Lead Capture agent will attempt to collect the lead in the first couple of messages and after that the usual flow will resume, regardless of success/failure.
   6. The feature is available on our Premium plan.
2. AI Vision Image processing - it is now possible to use advanced AI vision capabilities when processing uploaded images:

   2. The feature should work particularly well for photos, diagrams and charts.
   3. The feature can be used to extract text from images, but for that particular use case it's not necessarily better than OCR and may especially struggle with non-English texts.
   4. Available on all plans, with images up to 2048x2048 pixels. Enterprise users can request higher resolution and increased limits.
   5. AI vision works best in synergy with existing Image Citations feature, opening a lot of new use cases.
