Release Date: March 5, 2025 Release Type: Monthly Release
We're excited to ship CampusMind 3.0.0 — our biggest monthly release yet. This update brings powerful new automation capabilities, a cleaner and faster interface, significant accessibility improvements, and a wave of bug fixes that make the platform more reliable than ever.
Instead of staring at a spinning loader, users now see live, contextual status messages while an agent is working — things like "Analyzing transcript…" or "Calculating eligibility…" This makes wait times feel shorter, keeps users engaged, and makes it clear the agent is actively working on their request.
Agents can now respond automatically to external events — like incoming emails, form submissions, or activity from other tools — without any manual intervention. A clean and simple interface makes it easy to set up, view, and manage all your automated triggers in one place. This is a big step toward fully automated agent workflows for your institution.
Two major time-savers for accessibility workflows:
Bulk Course Selection — Select multiple courses for accessibility processing at once instead of going one by one.
Batch File Processing — Up to 10 files are now processed at the same time, dramatically cutting down turnaround time for large course loads.
Setting up a web crawler no longer means adding URLs one at a time. You can now paste an entire list of URLs and kick off the crawl in a single step. Each URL is tracked separately with its own document name, making source management much cleaner and easier to navigate.
When an agent cites a website as a source in a conversation, that source is now a clickable link. Users can click directly on it to open the original webpage in a new tab and verify the information themselves — making agents more transparent and trustworthy. This works for all web sources referenced in agent responses.
Documents that are rotated or oddly oriented are now automatically corrected before text extraction begins. This means more accurate results and better accessibility output — with no manual fixes needed on your end.
The left-hand navigation has been cleaned up significantly:
Favorite agents and recent conversations are now tucked into expandable dropdowns to reduce clutter
Quick access icons for Accessibility and IT Workforce tools are now pinned directly in the pane for faster reach
Overall navigation feels tighter, faster, and easier to use
A set of behind-the-scenes infrastructure upgrades that directly benefit every user:
Deployments are now fully automated, meaning faster updates with fewer interruptions
Core platform features are automatically tested after every release, so issues are caught before they reach you
Enhanced security and performance controls ensure the platform handles traffic reliably at scale
We've upgraded our document autotagging engine to deliver faster, more reliable results at scale — with no change to output quality.
Conversations in the chat widget now persist as users navigate between pages on the same website. No more lost context, no more restarting mid-conversation.
Resolved several interface issues in the bulk scraper that were making the feature difficult to use. The workflow is now smooth and consistent.
Students invited as VTA Admin or Professor were unable to trigger pipelines. This has been resolved — role-based permissions now work correctly across all account types.
Editing an agent's name would snap back to the original on every keystroke, making it impossible to rename agents. This is now fully fixed.
Files uploaded to the knowledge base were not showing up after upload. Uploads now appear immediately and are ready for agent use.
The search function in the observability section was broken, making it hard to find logs and trace issues. Search is now fully functional.
Custom logos and agent names set in the widget configuration were not showing up in the live widget. Branding changes now apply immediately and display correctly.
CampusMind 3.0.0 is a milestone release. From smarter agents and powerful automation to a cleaner interface and rock-solid reliability improvements, this update is built to help your team move faster and deliver better experiences to your users.
