We’re happy to announce our 1.2.0 release of Arcane. There are a number of new features to make the life of Authors easier, from manually inserting new email section, download of distribution ready packages to Undo/Redo. We also enable you to search by Vault Document Numbers, and customize the quick prompts that are available to your organisation.

A very exciting new feature is Approved Images for Authoring - Arcane now loads the approved images from your Vault or S3 bucket and our AI enables

Coming Soon: We will be releasing Arcane 1.2.1 in the last week of April with additional features for Authors - Allowing them to preview their emails and to manually search and filter for images using natural language.

New Features in 1.2.0

Authoring Performance Improvements

An incredible 8x improvement in response speed enables you to author more naturally and iterate faster on your content with Arcane.

Approved Images in Authoring Assist

Now when you prompt Arcane to create a section of content, it will search the Approved Images that have been imported into Arcane and select one that is related to the topic of your section.

You can also select an image in your email and simply prompt the topic, and it will find a relevant image.

This search includes concepts, colors, positions and also the text in your image - so prompts like “Find an image of a smiling woman in a red shirt” or “Find a Remepan 10mg pack shot” will just work.

Note: A Manual image browser with natural language search will be released in our 1.2.1 release planned for the last week of April.

Note: As of 10-04-2025 we have started import jobs for the approved images for our partners. This may take some time to complete as there is a large volume of images to import and run through AI for annotation and embedding. If you wish to check on the status of your image library please contact your Anthill partner.

Download Email from My Creations

You can now download your email content as a .zip file, which includes image assets, from the My Creations section. This feature enables you to transfer your Arcane Email to other systems, ensuring that all visual and text elements are preserved in a single package for easy distribution. The download package is Veeva Vault ready and compatible with Anthill Activator for additional editing, and includes HTML suitable for use in SFMC, Veeva CRM, IQVIA and additional platforms.

Manual Layout Selection for Emails

	Just click the plus icons above and below your selected content to open the Layout Selector! This lets you add a new Layout block to your email to shape the final asset.

Custom Quick Prompts

Your company can now have the Quick Prompts customized so that they are even more relevant to your business.

Contact Anthill to request changes to your Quick Prompts configuration.

Search by Document Number

This feature enhances document retrieval by allowing you to search using one or more document numbers. When you enter a document number like "MAT-1234" in the prompt, the system will direct you to the specific document's content. Additionally, if you input multiple document numbers, such as "MAT-1234 and MAT-8319," both documents will be included in the response.

Authoring Assist Undo/Redo

	The Authoring Assist feature now supports Undo and Redo functions, enhancing your editing capabilities. You can easily reverse or reapply your last action using standard keyboard shortcuts or by clicking the undo/redo icons, ensuring a smoother content creation experience.

Improvements

Tactic Information and Authoring Configuration Updates

Arcane now applies the guidance from your Personas, Style and other Tacit contexts more coherently to the content it creates.

My Creations: Enhanced Email Opening

When you open an email from the My Creations section, the associated conversation and settings are now automatically loaded.

Improvements to Save Behavior for Manual Edits

Previously, manual edits such as directly changing text, rearranging layouts, or deleting sections during an edit session might not have been saved automatically in "My Creations." This has been addressed to ensure that any manual alterations are effectively saved, in addition to AI-generated updates. Now, when you make such changes, they are preserved once your session ends, maintaining the integrity of your work without relying solely on AI-triggered save actions.

Inline Citation Enhancements

You will now experience improved inline citation with enhanced snippet/document labeling within the Arcane responses for the Astellas platform. Previously, some responses lacked these labels, leading to potential confusion. The update now ensures a consistent display of snippet/document labels for clearer references. Check the conversation link provided for a detailed view of the changes implemented.

Non-Movable Layout Enhancement

Layouts recently added to your project, whether manually or through AI assistance, are now fixed in position within the interface. This adjustment enhances stability and predictability when organizing content, ensuring that new layouts maintain a consistent structure without the ability to be rearranged up or down after their initial placement.
