📢 Changelog – Fresh Features & Fewer Bugs (Hopefully)
Ah, updates - like taxes and awkward Zoom calls, they’re inevitable. But at least ours are more fun, come with fewer surprises and (hopefully) more fixes. Here’s where you’ll find what’s new, what’s improved, and what we accidentally broke (but promptly fixed). So grab a coffee, take a deep breath, and dive into the wonderful world of feedback evolution - one update at a time.
Enterprise customers can now purchase additional credits directly under Settings → Billing → Manage credits — no need to go through your account team.
Choose a credit amount, confirm, and credits are added instantly.
You can now connect your Azure Blob Storage account to Caplena and import data directly from your containers — no manual exports needed.
Once connected, select any blob container as a data source and Caplena will automatically pull in your files for analysis.
Getting started: Set up your Azure Blob Storage connection →
Getting started with realistic data just got a lot more flexible. You can now either pick from a curated list of pre-built demo projects — spanning different industries and research types — or generate your own from scratch by describing your use case and letting Caplena create a fully analysed project tailored to it.
Whether you're onboarding a new team, exploring a use case before committing real data, or just want to see what Caplena can do, demo projects are now a first-class way to get there.
Semi-Open mode just got significantly better for large tracking studies like brand trackers.
Import keywords directly — You can now import a keyword list into Semi-Open projects, making it much faster to set up and maintain large, structured topic collections.
Increased stability — We've improved how Semi-Open handles large volumes of short-text data, reducing inconsistencies in clustering results.
More configuration options in settings — New controls give you finer-grained tuning over how the algorithm groups and assigns topics, so you can match it to your specific data structure.

Ask the Insight Agent a question about how Caplena works — it'll answer directly, no need to leave your project and dig through documentation.
You can now filter any column by blank — empty cells are no longer invisible to your filters.
Whether you're tracking down a missing date, a smart column that didn't populate, or a row with an identifier error, just select the "blank" filter and they'll surface instantly. No more hunting through your data manually.
Keep your topic collection in sync across projects — without rebuilding from scratch.
Large trackers evolve, but changing a live topic collection is risky: one edit can affect trend lines, reports, and stakeholder trust. The Learning Relationship gives you a structured way to manage that evolution. Link a development project to your production project, experiment on a representative sample, and push only validated changes back into your live tracker.
Link two projects in Settings: In Topic Settings, select a source project under Learning Relationship — typically a development project that mirrors your production tracker at a smaller sample size.
Re-sync when you're ready: Use Re-Sync Topics from Learning Relationship to see your current topics next to the linked project's topics. Enable Show Differences to highlight exactly what has changed — topics to update, delete, or add. Nothing is applied until you choose to merge. One click pushes the validated changes into your current project
Want to set this up for your tracker? Reach out to your CSM — they'll help you get started.
You can now control exactly which columns report viewers see when you share a view.
What's new
Why it matters Share cleaner, more focused views with external stakeholders or specific teams — without exposing raw data columns that aren't relevant to them.
We've launched a redesigned documentation experience at docs.caplena.com — easier to navigate, faster to search, and built to match the rest of the Caplena experience.
Content is organized into six focused sections — Get Started, Topic Assignment, Insights & Reports, Data & Project Management, Integrations, and Settings — so you can find what you need without digging.
Full-text search is faster and more accurate, so you spend less time browsing and more time doing.
The docs now match the visual style of caplena.com, giving you a more seamless experience across the product.

The LLM-powered translation in Caplena now understands your project — not just your words.
Translation has always been tricky when your data contains industry jargon, brand names, or survey-specific terminology. Generic translation tools don't know that "Comfort" is a fabric softener brand, or that "awareness" in your survey means something very specific.
That's why we've added context to the translation process. Caplena in the new LLM based translation now passes your project description and column descriptions directly to the LLM when translating — so it understands what it's translating, not just the words themselves.
For most everyday language, translation works well out of the box. But the real difference shows up in edge cases: brand names that shouldn't be translated, product-specific vocabulary, or subtle phrasing that carries meaning in your survey context. With added context, the LLM can make smarter, more faithful translation decisions — right where it counts.
Select the LLM based translation when creating the project.
