What’s new in Membrs

Product changelog

Every meaningful change to Membrs — what’s shipped, what we’ve fixed, and what’s coming. We update this page after every deploy.

22 July 2026New

Membrs is now at membrs.ai

  • Membrs has a new home: membrs.ai, with the app at app.membrs.ai
  • All existing links, bookmarks, and sign-in pages redirect automatically — you don't need to change anything
  • Membrs is operated by Membrs Ltd, registered in England & Wales (company no. 17352750)
20 July 2026New

Guided onboarding — upload documents, Isla fills in your profile

  • New step-by-step onboarding: tell us about you, look up your organisation, add a few details, upload your documents, and let Isla do the rest
  • Drop in annual reports, accounts, or governing documents — Isla reads them and pre-fills your 127-question charity profile, and you review every answer before it's saved
  • Already set up? Run the same document auto-fill any time from Settings
  • Closed the tab halfway through? Onboarding now resumes exactly where you left off
20 July 2026New

Export or delete your data, any time

  • Download a complete copy of your data from Settings — profile, pipeline, drafts, documents, and chat history in a single ZIP
  • Delete your account permanently from Settings, with password confirmation; if you share a workspace with teammates, ownership transfers to them instead of their data disappearing
20 July 2026Improved

Emails from Isla + smoother sign-up

  • Verification codes, magic links, and password resets now arrive by email from Isla
  • Started signing up but never finished verifying? Registering again with the same email now picks up where you left off instead of hitting a dead end
20 July 2026Improved

New paper look + a rebuilt Help Centre

  • The landing page, sign-in, and sign-up now share the same warm paper look as the app
  • Fresh product tours recorded from the live app: a Simple UI walkthrough and a Simple-vs-CRM side-by-side
  • Help Centre rebuilt from scratch, with separate guides for the Simple experience and the CRM view, plus a new Documents & Auto-fill section
  • Every help article now has its own page with screenshots — easier to read, share, and find from search engines
July 2026New

Drafting Studio + Bid Library

  • Drafting Studio: work through an application question by question — Isla drafts, you edit and approve, and nothing is ever submitted without you
  • Ask Isla to rewrite any single answer, with a preview before you accept it
  • Bid Library: keep your past successful applications in one place and search them for your best answers while you write
July 2026Improved

Deeper UK funder coverage

  • Membrs now focuses squarely on the UK — tracking 27,000+ UK funders
  • New funders are discovered, verified, and published to the catalogue daily
  • Funder records are automatically demoted when a fund closes, so stale opportunities don't linger
July 2026Improved

Reliability + security

  • Ongoing security hardening across the platform
  • Daily backups with off-site copies and regular restore tests
  • New automated health checks flag stalls and issues before you notice them
  • Eligibility re-checks now run automatically on your longest-standing leads, so verdicts stay current
July 2026New

Membrs mobile app — preview

  • The Membrs mobile app has been rebuilt in the warm paper look: Today, Pipeline, Quick Matches, Isla chat, Drafting Studio, and Bid Library on your phone
  • Designed for one hand: bottom sheets, gentle motion, and the same typography as the web app
  • Currently in preview ahead of App Store and Google Play release
June 2026New

Simple UI is now the default

  • Every account now lands in the Simple experience — a calm, guided view of what matters today
  • The classic CRM view is still there for power users: dense tables, full funder detail, and every tool one switch away
  • Eligibility verdicts are now a clear Eligible / Not eligible — no ambiguous middle states
  • Every eligibility verdict links to where Isla checked, so you can see the source for yourself
May 2026Improved

Membrs brand + landing rebuild

  • GrantPath → Membrs rebrand across the platform: new logo, wordmark, and product copy
  • Ground-up landing-page rebuild — interactive product moments in the hero, 4 alternating feature sections with auto-playing video walkthroughs, tabbed product tour, and a tighter pricing table
  • Help Centre now embeds 35-second walkthroughs for Quick Matches, Eligible Pipeline, and Isla Chat — lazy-loaded, posters first, click to play
  • Recorded fresh end-to-end product videos directly from the live app — every frame is real Membrs UI
May 2026New

Admin Centre — operator-grade redesign

  • New Admin Centre at /app/Admin with command palette (⌘K), keyboard shortcut overlay (?), and chord navigation (g d → Dashboard, g t → Tickets, etc.)
  • Density toggle, page-transition crossfade, designed loading and error boundaries on every route
  • Bulk actions, filter chips, URL-state persistence, and CSV export on every list view
  • Audit-log breadcrumbs from any user or workspace detail page
  • 5 backend wiring bugs found and fixed via automated smoketest (billing routes, support stats, impersonate column reference)
May 2026Improved

Mobile redesign + role-aware UI

  • Every view rebuilt mobile-first — bottom-sheet modals, density-aware layouts, swipe-friendly tap targets
  • God-tier role badge in sidebar and header so super-users always know their access level
  • Sidebar avatar ring colour-coded by role (purple = god, orange = superadmin)
  • Fixed mobile bottom-nav covering toasts; toasts now lift above the nav with proper safe-area inset
  • Modals on mobile slide up from the bottom as bottom sheets instead of centring as popups
April 2026Improved

Drafting + scanner reliability

  • Anti-AI-detection drafting — outputs read as human-written, no markers, no template smell
  • Persistent draft memory: revisited funders skip discovery and use the known form URL + question list
  • Auto-extraction of grant data from PDFs and DOCX guidelines (no LLM needed for known forms)
  • Email-gated Salesforce/UKCF application forms now handled end-to-end (10-stage pipeline)
  • Hallucination filter blocks 'browser unavailable' responses before they enter chat memory
March 2026New

Multi-tenant + messaging integration

  • Per-workspace data isolation — every charity gets their own state file with RLS-enforced PG access
  • Roles: god, superadmin, admin, member, viewer with workspace-scoped permissions
  • WhatsApp + Telegram pairing — chat with ISLA from your phone via 6-digit code
  • Personal + organisational workspaces with switcher
  • Encrypted message history (AES-256-GCM)
March 2026Improved

ISLA Chat overhaul

  • Hallucination fix — ISLA never claims to have done something she hasn't
  • Persistent chat memory across sessions, not just per-tab
  • 20+ new actions including run scan, check eligibility, draft application, score win probability
  • Proactive reminders for upcoming deadlines and stalled drafts
March 2026Improved

Eligibility checker + DOM-first browsing

  • ISLA reads each funder's eligibility checker directly when one is offered
  • DOM-first browsing replaces vision-based agent on most pages — faster, more reliable
  • False-positive directory filter (ignores listicles, news pages, search tools)
  • Pipeline leads in PostgreSQL are now the source of truth (no more dual-write drift)
March 2026New

Vision-action, win scorer v3, and product depth

  • Screenshot-driven browsing for funder sites that can't be scraped
  • Evidence-based win scoring v3 — every factor cites the criterion it matched
  • Funder Intel: AI-enriched profiles with web search + website fetch
  • Smart Feed: AI recommendations with quick (no-LLM) and deep modes
  • Application workflow beta: question discovery and draft preparation with explicit review; no automatic submission
  • Document Analyzer: PDF/DOCX summaries + key-field extraction
  • Coverage tracking: cross-reference draft against funder requirements
February 2026New
