Release feed

Notable and major notes from Oct 8–14, 2026. Rows marked Example are seed events, not verified changelog entries.

Taxonomy check: Google lists Veo 3.1 preview models on the Gemini API for shutdown no earlier than Oct 22, 2026, with Gemini Omni recommended. This is why the faceless-video row carries a penalty.

The weekly AI stack drop

New tools worth your time, by use case. One Friday email. A sponsor, when there is one, is labeled. Editorial picks follow the scores.

Sample issue and sponsor slot

Featured stacks

Stack score is the mean of each role’s winner, plus a small compatibility adjustment. It is not a blend that lets a sponsor climb.
