November Updates: Alpha Testing, Affiliates, and Analysis Improvements

Somewhat routine update this month, there's some cool stuff going on behind the scenes that our Alpha testers will get access to first, so more to come about those features as they mature.

If you are interested in becoming an Alpha tester, please email me at alpha@gmassistant.app

We are also starting to actively look for Affiliates; if you are someone with an audience and are interested, you can apply to our Affiliate program at affiliates.gmassistant.app

Andrei and I will be at PAX Unplugged this weekend. If you see someone wearing a GM Assistant shirt it will likely be one of us! I will TRY to post updates to social media.

Updates

Analysis Improvements (ongoing)

  • Faster language detection and overall analysis
  • Avoid emphasis on game mechanics (dice rolls, spells) in narrative portions of analysis
  • Avoid recapping a previous read aloud recap
  • Improvement management of lengthy campaign details
  • Minor improvements to accuracy
  • Added stylized recaps for Spanish, German, and French sessions

UI design and performance improvements (ongoing)

  • Improved look and feel of minor components, such as dropdown lists
  • Optimized backend API calls for faster load times
  • Retry logic to account for network failures

Export field selection and ordering

  • Pick and choose parts of a session for export
  • now includes stylized recaps

Frontend error reporting

Information about issues experienced in the browser is now captured so we can monitor for issues

Data Processing Audit

We did a full audit of Data Processing Agreements with all of our service providers to ensure that they continue to treat user data responsibly (no retention, no selling, no AI training, etc)

Fixes

✅ Excessively long NPC/Location/Item/Spell descriptions could cause analysis failure

✅ "No Scenes Found" would sometimes appear upon analysis completion, requiring a refresh of the browser tab.
