Release notes

What's new in BlueHive HUM

Every meaningful improvement we've shipped — newest first. Follow along as HUM keeps getting better.

June 16, 2026

  1. A reliability roundup — steadier calls and complete recordingsv0.14.0

    We bundled this week's reliability work into a single update: call recordings that capture the whole conversation, smoother live-call hand-offs, a steadier agent console, and a handful of rough edges smoothed over.

    Fixes

    • Call recordings capture the whole call. When a call moves from the assistant to a team member, the recording now keeps the entire conversation in one continuous file, start to finish. Before, a transferred call could lose part of its recording — and in some cases a long conversation showed only a few quiet seconds.
    • Answering a call always connects you to the caller. Picking up an incoming transfer now reliably puts the caller on the line. Previously, if the caller spoke while the assistant was saying "connecting you now," the hand-off could silently fail and leave you hearing a dialing tone.
    • Calls end cleanly when a caller hangs up as you answer. No more ringing on indefinitely — the call screen now wraps up within a few seconds.
    • A more dependable in-call keypad. Tapping digits for an extension, a menu option, or a PIN now sends every touch-tone clearly, so your presses don't get missed partway through a call.
    • A steadier live agent console. Right after we ship an update, agents' connections used to reconnect all at once — which could flash a red "Server error" and blink the online-agents list even though nothing was wrong. Reconnections now spread out gently and the roster holds steady.
    • Admin clock-out that sticks. Clocking a teammate out from the Console now keeps them offline, even if their HUM window was tucked behind another app and their computer tried to quietly reconnect.
    • Stay signed in through brief hiccups. A momentary connection blip no longer signs you out or sends you to the setup screen — you'll see a quick "try again" notice and pick up right where you left off.

June 11, 2026

  1. Bea remembers your whole conversationv0.13.0

    Bea now holds onto everything you've talked about in a conversation, so you can keep going deeper without starting over.

    What's new

    • Bea remembers your whole conversation. Long chats with Bea no longer lose their earlier context — she now keeps the full back-and-forth in mind, so you can keep digging into a topic without having to repeat yourself.
  2. Your texting assistant can now see photosv0.12.0

    When customers text in a picture, BlueHive's AI assistant can now look at it and respond — no more asking people to type out what's already in the image.

    What's new

    • Your AI texting assistant can now see photos. When someone texts in a picture — like a photo of their insurance card — the AI looks at it, checks that it shows what's needed, and responds accordingly, instead of asking the sender to type everything out.

June 10, 2026

  1. Your calls and voicemails now work like an inboxv0.11.0

    This release brings an inbox-style workflow to your calls and voicemails, smarter AI voice agents out of the box, and a faster way to move through your call history — plus a cleaner website experience.

    What's new

    • New voice agents now use OpenAI's latest realtime voice model by default, giving you stronger instruction-following and more reliable actions on calls right out of the box. Your existing agents keep their current model unchanged — and you can switch any agent's model anytime from its Design tab.
    • Calls and voicemails now work like an email inbox. Anything you haven't opened yet shows bold with a blue dot, and the sidebar shows how many unread calls and voicemails are waiting for you. Open one and it's marked as read — just for you, so everyone on your team keeps their own view of what they've caught up on. You can mark items back as unread to revisit them later, or use "Mark all read" to catch up in one click.
    • Every call now has an access log showing who on your team has opened it and when — the same way voicemails already did.
    • Step through calls without going back to the list: the call page now has previous/next buttons (arrow keys work too), so you can review call after call just like flipping through messages.
    • The call page header is easier to scan: the call's status (Live, Completed, Inbound/Outbound) now sits right under the phone numbers with the date and duration, leaving a tidy row of just the buttons you act on.
    • Call tables now size each column to fit what's actually in it — phone numbers, dates, and statuses get exactly the room they need, so more of your call list fits on screen without awkward stretched or squished columns.
    • Right-click any call in a list for quick actions: open it (or in a new tab), call the person back, copy their number, see your full history with them, mark it read or unread, copy a shareable link, or block a spam caller — all without leaving the list.
    • Call transcripts got a cleaner, chat-style layout: each speaker's name now sits beside their avatar with their words right underneath, timestamps line up in one tidy column, and the extra empty space between lines is gone — so conversations are easier to follow at a glance.
    • The website header now adapts better to mid-size screens — menu items no longer crowd or overflow on tablets — and when you're signed in it shows a single clear "Go to dashboard" button. "Get started" buttons across the site now take you straight to your dashboard too, instead of asking you to sign up again.

    Fixes

    • Callers waiting on hold for the next available agent now ring through to online agents right away. Previously a caller could be left listening to hold music even while agents were free, until they gave up and hung up.
    • Fixed an issue where an agent could get stuck looking "on a call" after a caller hung up at the exact moment of a transfer — making them invisible to call routing until they clocked out and back in. Routing now detects and clears this automatically.
    • If a caller hangs up just as they're being transferred to an agent, the agent's incoming-call notification is now dismissed automatically so they no longer answer into a silent, already-ended call.
    • Hover tooltips on the call page's navigation buttons now show reliably — including the previous/next call arrows when there's no call to jump to — with a clearer, consistent look that matches the rest of the app.
  2. Bea's links now go where they shouldv0.10.4

    Fixes

    • Links in Bea's answers now take you to the right place. Click a page or Help Center link and you'll go straight there inside the app — no more losing your spot. External links open in your browser, including from the desktop app, where links previously could go nowhere at all.
  3. Bea finds the answers — smarter search everywherev0.10.3

    Bea now reliably answers product questions from the Help Center, and search understands what you mean, not just the words you type.

    Fixes

    • Bea can now actually find Help Center articles. When you ask product questions like "how do I set up an AI agent to answer my calls?", Bea searches the documentation and answers with step-by-step guidance and links to the right articles — instead of telling you the docs don't cover it yet.
    • Smarter search all around: semantic (meaning-based) search now works across your calls, contacts, voicemails, and documents, and documentation search finds the best matching article even when your question doesn't use the exact words in the docs.
  4. Tables back in the desktop appv0.10.2

    A quick fix for desktop app users.

    Fixes

    • Tables show up again in the desktop app. Calls, contacts, and other lists were appearing empty and unformatted in the desktop app — they now display correctly, matching what you see in the browser.

June 9, 2026

  1. File downloads fixedv0.10.1

    Two fixes that make working with your files smoother.

    Fixes

    • File downloads work reliably again. Downloading a file from Documents — from the file menu, the file detail panel, or a call recording — now saves correctly in every browser and in the desktop app, which hands downloads to your default browser.
    • File menus stay on screen. The actions menu on a file card now flips to stay fully visible when it opens near the edge of the window, so Download, Rename, and Delete are always reachable.
  2. Meet Bea — your assistant on every pagev0.10.0

    Bea, the AI that answers your calls, now helps you everywhere in HUM — plus a new Help Center and a much faster app.

    What's new

    • Meet Bea, your built-in assistant. Bea now lives on every page of HUM — click Bea's icon in the corner (or press Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+B) to chat. She knows the page you're on: ask about the call you're viewing ("What did this caller need?", "Draft a follow-up email"), get a relationship summary on a contact, or get configuration help while editing an AI agent. During a live call she can summarize the conversation so far and draft the follow-up you just promised — all from the actual transcript.
    • Give Bea more room. A new expand button in Bea's header grows her panel into a roomier workspace — great for longer answers and call summaries. HUM remembers your preferred size for next time.
    • Bea no longer scrolls you around while she types. The chat stays right where you're reading while her answer streams in, and a "Jump to latest" button appears whenever new content is waiting below.
    • Bea's chat looks polished while you talk. Formatting — bold text, lists, headings — now renders live as her answer streams in (no more raw markdown symbols until the reply finishes), and messages you send display their formatting too.
    • Copy and rate Bea's answers. Every reply now has a copy button plus thumbs up/down, so you can grab her draft in one click and tell us when she nails it (or doesn't) — your feedback helps make her better.
    • Bea answers product questions, with receipts. Ask "How do I add a phone number?" or "How do business hours work?" and Bea answers from the new HUM Help Center, citing the articles she used so you can read more.
    • A new Help Center. Step-by-step guides for every part of HUM — getting started, AI agents, phone numbers, the SMS inbox, campaigns, contacts, webhooks, and more — are now at hum.bluehive.com/docs.
    • HUM loads much faster. The app now downloads only what each page needs, so your first visit and every return trip start in a fraction of the time — especially noticeable on slower connections.
  3. Trigger agents from your other tools, plus clearer voicemail handoffsv0.9.0

    HUM can now spring into action when things happen outside the phone — and we polished up how calls hand off to voicemail.

    What's new

    • Kick off an AI agent from your other tools. You can now have HUM run an event-trigger agent when something happens in another system — a new GitHub issue, an updated Redmine ticket, a finished job, anything that can send a web request. Create an inbound trigger under Settings → Integrations → Inbound triggers, point the outside tool at the URL it gives you, and HUM hands the details straight to whichever agent you've subscribed — so it can look things up, summarize, and notify your team automatically, no phone call required.
    • The call timeline now shows what the agent _did_, not just what was said. When you navigate a phone menu with the dialpad or drop a saved voice clip during a live call, those actions appear right in the transcript — timestamped in line with the conversation, just like the AI's own actions. You can also click the matching marker on the recording to jump straight to that moment, so the story of the call is always complete and accurate.

    Fixes

    • Voicemail handoffs now say what they mean. Before sending a caller to voicemail, the AI receptionist sometimes skipped the actual instructions — callers could hear an off-script line (or even "anything else I can help with?") right before the beep. The spoken handoff is now locked to the exact voicemail prompt, and the call waits for that message to finish playing before the beep starts, so callers always know what to leave and for whom. The same fix protects transfer announcements and goodbye lines from getting cut off mid-sentence.
    • Stay clocked in when the window slips behind another app. On the desktop app, leaving Hum parked behind another window no longer quietly clocks you out or scrambles your clock-in time. Hum now keeps your connection alive in the background, and if it ever does blink offline for a moment, you pick up the same shift right where you left off instead of starting the clock over.

  1. Keypad tones that always landv0.8.2

    A quick fix for anyone who navigates phone menus during a call.

    Fixes

    • Keypad tones register every time, even when you tap fast. When you press digits during a call to get through an automated menu, quick repeated taps could collide and cancel each other out, so the menu never heard them. Presses now play one after another in the order you tap them, so you reach the right option without mashing the button.
  2. Call notes that stick around, and cleaner clips on holdv0.8.1

    A couple of quick polish fixes for your calls.

    Fixes

    • Your call notes now show up on the call. The notes you jot down in the Notes panel during a call now appear right on that call's page afterward — alongside the transcript and summary — so nothing you wrote gets lost.
    • Smoother clips while a caller is on hold. Playing a voice clip to someone who's on hold used to sound choppy. Now the hold music steps aside while your clip plays, so it comes through clean from start to finish.
  3. A full-screen home for every callv0.8.0

    Your call screen just grew up. When you're on a call, you now get a full workspace built for getting things done — not a tiny box in the corner.

    What's new

    • A full-screen workspace for every call. When a call connects, it now opens into a roomy, focused view with the caller's details, your call controls, and the live transcript all in one place. Need to peek at another page? Tap Minimize to tuck the call into the corner — your call keeps going, untouched — and Expand to jump right back.
    • Text a customer a saved reply in one tap. Got a question you answer all the time, like pricing or scheduling? Open the Text panel during a call, search your saved replies, and send the right one to the customer as a text message — without ever leaving the call. You can tweak the wording before it goes, or save a brand-new message as a template on the spot.
    • Notes that save themselves. Jot down what's happening right next to the live transcript in the new Notes panel. Everything saves automatically as you type and stays attached to the call, so it's all there when you look back later.
    • Let AI write your saved replies. When you create a text template, just describe the message you want — or tap the mic and say it — and we'll draft the wording and a title for you to tweak and save.
    • Personalize every text automatically. Drop in details like the contact's first name or company with a tap, and we fill them in for you the moment the text sends — so every message feels personal without the typing.
    • A consent check that has your back. Before a customer's first text, we ask you to confirm they agreed to receive messages — and we always respect anyone who's opted out — so staying compliant takes care of itself.
    • Manage your saved replies in Settings. A new Templates tab under Settings lets you create, edit, and organize your text replies by category. Keep replies just for yourself, or share a set with your whole team.

June 6, 2026

  1. Voice Clips — your one-tap call soundboardv0.6.0

    Say goodbye to reading the same voicemail message out loud on every call.

    What's new

    • Voice Clips — your personal soundboard. There's a new Voice Clips area in the sidebar where you can save short audio clips, like your voicemail drop. Record one with your mic, upload an existing audio file, or type a script and let us generate it in a natural voice.
    • Play a clip into any live call with one tap. While you're on a call, open the new Clips button on the call panel and tap a clip to play it straight to the other person — perfect for leaving the same voicemail without saying it again and again. Your mic mutes automatically while it plays, and you can stop it anytime.
    • Keep clips to yourself or share with your team. Every clip starts private. Flip one to shared and it shows up on everyone's soundboard, so your team can reuse the same polished messages.
    • Know exactly which version you're on. A new Debug panel at the bottom of Settings shows your app version, the exact build it's running, and when that build shipped — handy to copy and share if you ever reach out to support.

  1. Call transfer lag fixed and shared ringtonesv0.5.1

    Two important reliability fixes: live call transfers stay in sync, and shared team ringtones now appear for everyone.

    Fixes

    • No lag after transferring a call. When you hand a live call to another agent, the audio now stays in sync instead of falling further and further behind. The agent who picks up hears the caller right away, and the conversation keeps up for the rest of the call.
    • Public ringtones appear for the whole team. Tones added to the shared Public Ringtones folder in Documents now show up in everyone's ringtone picker under Settings → Account, and play for all members. Files added earlier surface automatically — no need to re-share them.
  2. Choose your own ringtone for incoming callsv0.5.0

    Pick the sound you hear when a call comes in — and bring your own.

    What's new

    • Choose your ringtone. Head to Settings → Account and pick the tone you'll hear when an incoming call rings your softphone. Tap Preview to hear any option before you commit.
    • Upload your own. Add a personal ringtone (MP3 or WAV, up to 1 MB and 30 seconds). Your uploads are saved privately to a new My Ringtones folder in your Documents.
    • Shared team ringtones. Admins can drop tones into a shared Public Ringtones folder in Documents, and everyone on the team can pick from them.
  3. BlueHive HUM is now on Windowsv0.4.4

    The BlueHive HUM desktop app is now available for Windows — grab it from the download page and run the full workspace in its own dedicated window.

    What's new

    • Windows desktop app. Visit the download page and pick the installer that fits you — a standard .msi or a one-click .exe setup. Calls, SMS, meetings, and flows all run in a native window with microphone and camera access, and the app keeps itself up to date automatically.
  4. Your call list keeps itself up to datev0.4.3

    The Calls page now refreshes on its own, so new calls show up without you lifting a finger.

    What's new

    • Calls refresh automatically. The call list updates every minute in the background, so recently finished calls appear on their own. You can still tap Refresh any time you want the very latest right away.

    Fixes

    • Smoother conversations in the browser. When you talk over the assistant in the in-browser dialer or the website voice widget, it now stops and responds right away instead of drifting further behind. Audio stays in sync for the whole call.

  5. Documents — a home for your files, recordings, and agent knowledgev0.4.2

    Say hello to Documents — a Google-Drive-style space inside HUM where your team can keep audio, PDFs, and text files, where your call recordings and voicemails are always within reach, and that works hand in hand with Messages.

    What's new

    • A real document library. Open Documents from the sidebar to upload audio clips, PDFs, spreadsheets, and notes. Drag files straight onto the page or use the Upload button — you'll see each upload's progress as it goes.
    • Folders, the way you'd expect. Organize everything into folders, rename and delete as you go, and find your way back with the breadcrumb trail at the top.
    • Private or shared, your call. Keep a file just for yourself, or share it with everyone in your organization. Flip any file between private and shared whenever you like.
    • Your recordings and voicemails, right here. Call Recordings and Voicemails show up at the top of your Drive so you can jump straight to them, play them back, and download a copy.
    • Teach your AI agents. Turn on Use with agent for any document and your AI agents can draw on it during calls — answering questions from your pricing sheet, policy doc, or FAQ instead of guessing. We index it automatically and show you when it's ready.
    • Built-in playback and previews. Click any file to open a details panel with its size, type, and upload date. Audio plays right there, and images and PDFs show a quick preview — on the web and in the desktop app — with download always one click away.
    • Send straight from Messages. In any conversation, tap Documents to pick from a thumbnail grid of your recent files — or browse your folders — and send them as a picture or file. Pick several at once, see them lined up as chips, and remove any before sending. No re-uploading the same flyer or PDF.
    • Everything lands in one place. Files you send, and pictures customers send back, are tucked into a shared Messages folder in Documents so your whole team can find them later.
    • Storage you can see. Your plan now includes a generous storage allowance, and your billing page shows exactly how much you're using. Need more? It scales with you, billed only for what goes over.

    Fixes

    • Files that are too large or aren't supported for picture messaging are clearly marked, so you'll always know what will go through before you send.
    • Downloads and previews work reliably everywhere, including the desktop app.

  1. Event Agents, better voicemail reach, and desktop fixesv0.3.20

    The big one today: Event Agents — a new kind of AI Agent that works in the background — plus a couple of fixes that make outbound calls and the desktop app smoother.

    What's new

    • Introducing Event Agents. When you create an agent, you can now choose Event as its type. Instead of answering calls or texts, it runs in the background the moment a trigger fires.
    • Pick your triggers. Tell the agent what to listen for — a completed call, a new voicemail, an incoming text, a closed conversation, and more. It springs into action only when those events happen.
    • Real work, hands-free. A typical Event Agent looks up the caller's details in your CRM, writes a short summary of what happened, and notifies the right on-call person using your own tools — all without anyone lifting a finger.
    • A full run history. Every time an Event Agent runs, we record what it did, which tools it used, and how it turned out, so you can see exactly what happened after the fact.

    Fixes

    • Outbound calls now ring long enough to reach voicemail. When you dial out from the browser, the call keeps ringing a bit longer so the other side's voicemail has time to pick up — you'll hear the greeting and can leave a message instead of the call ending early as "no answer."
    • Voice dictation now works in the desktop app. When building an agent or tool with AI, the "hit the mic and talk it out" button was failing to transcribe in the desktop app. It now records and transcribes correctly so you can draft hands-free.
    • Switching organizations works in the desktop app. Picking a different organization from the switcher now takes effect right away instead of quietly doing nothing.
    • Keypad tones reach phone menus reliably. When you press digits during a call to navigate an automated menu (IVR), the tones now go through every time instead of occasionally being missed, so you reach the right option without having to retry.

  2. Say hello to AI Agentsv0.3.17

    Your call flows are now AI Agents — a clearer name for the AI workers that greet callers, answer texts, and get work done on your behalf — plus a handful of platform touches that make HUM easier to follow day to day.

    What's new

    • Call Flows are now AI Agents. The same powerful builder, with a name that better reflects what it does. You'll see "AI Agents" in the sidebar, on the builder, and throughout the docs.
    • Staff vs. AI, made clear. Your human on-call team now lives under Staff, so it's never confused with your AI Agents. Old links redirect automatically.
    • See how each agent is triggered. Every agent now shows its trigger at a glance — a live call, an incoming message, or an event — so you always know what kicks it off.
    • Stay in the loop with a smart update badge. A small badge by your clock-in and active-call controls gives you a heads-up before updates roll out, invites you to refresh into the latest when you're ready — never mid-call — and opens a friendly What's New summary any time you click it. The desktop app gets the same nudge when a new version is ready.
    • A full release-notes history. Browse everything we've shipped, newest first, on a new release notes page — linked from What's New and the site footer.
    • Organization on contacts. Add the company a contact belongs to and see it right on the agent dialer's contact card while you're on a call.

    Fixes

    • Tidied up naming across the app, documentation, and pricing so everything speaks the same language.
    • Clock-out that sticks. When a supervisor clocks an agent out from the console, that agent now stays offline instead of quietly popping back online a moment later — and the roster's "Clock out" button no longer wraps onto two lines.
    • Polished the header so the clock-in, active-call, and update badges line up cleanly in both light and dark mode.

  1. A desktop app, live presence, and RCS messagingv0.3.1

    Take HUM with you on the desktop, see who's around at a glance, and reach people with richer messaging.

    What's new

    • The HUM desktop app. A native app with autostart, a tray clock-in menu, and native call notifications so you never miss a call.
    • Live presence and avatars. See who's online and on calls, with editable display names and friendly avatars across the app.
    • Listen in on live calls. Admins can listen in on an in-progress call to support their team in the moment.
    • RCS and Messaging Service support. Richer texting and better deliverability for your messages.
    • A refreshed download page. A clearer place to grab the desktop app, with status and uptime at a glance.

    Fixes

    • Agents stay clocked in across updates instead of being dropped.
    • Outbound calls no longer get stuck showing "initiated".
    • Call attribution is preserved correctly across transfers.

  1. Agent power tools and CRM connectorsv0.3.0

    A big step up for live agents, plus a bridge to the customer tools you already rely on.

    What's new

    • In-call controls for agents. Put callers on hold with real hold music, transfer them, or send them to voicemail — all from the softphone.
    • Faster, smarter transfers. A call queue with ring alerts and hold music, plus named and department-based transfers, so callers reach the right person sooner.
    • After-hours to a live agent. When someone's clocked in after hours, HUM can route the caller to them instead of straight to voicemail.
    • CRM connectors. Connect HUM to your CRM so contacts and calls stay in sync, with deep links that jump you between the two.
    • Agent time tracking. A new analytics page and a header clock-in/out button make it easy to see who's available and for how long.
    • A live mic meter. Agents can confirm their microphone is working before they take a call.

    Fixes

    • Knowledge lookups during calls are more reliable.
    • Barge-in works dependably on both phone and browser calls.
    • Recordings of agent calls stay smooth and in sync.

  1. Test calls, an embeddable widget, and meeting summariesv0.2.6

    Try flows before you ship them, let visitors call you straight from your website, and get a recap after every meeting.

    What's new

    • Test a flow in your browser. Dial into any flow yourself to hear exactly how it sounds before it goes live.
    • An embeddable voice widget. Drop a simple widget on your website so visitors can talk to Bea with one click.
    • Post-meeting AI summaries. After a Bea Meet session, get an automatic summary of what was discussed.
    • Friendlier meeting invites. Send meeting invites by text with one-time passcodes, all looking great in light and dark mode.

    Fixes

    • Polished colors and tooltips across meetings for better readability.

  1. Voicemail AI summaries, buy numbers, and global searchv0.2.5

    Spend less time digging and more time helping — HUM now summarizes, searches, and sets you up with new numbers in a few clicks.

    What's new

    • Voicemails, summarized. Every voicemail now comes with an AI summary, sentiment, urgency, and suggested action items so you know what matters at a glance.
    • Buy a phone number in HUM. Search available numbers and get a new line up and running without leaving the app.
    • Global super search. Find calls, contacts, and more from one search box — with AI-powered answers to your questions.
    • A richer contact view. Open any contact to see their call history and stats in one place.
    • Per-flow voice tuning. Fine-tune how responsive Bea is to interruptions on a flow-by-flow basis.

    Fixes

    • Dashboard stats now show loading placeholders instead of a momentary "0".
    • Agent transcripts are labeled with the agent's name, not Bea's.
    • Date-range filtering on analytics fits its container cleanly.

  1. Two-way texting and a brand-new message inboxv0.2.4

    HUM is now a texting platform too — with AI-powered conversations and a chat inbox your whole team can work from.

    What's new

    • Two-way SMS. Send and receive text messages, with Bea able to handle conversations automatically through SMS flows and campaigns.
    • A chat-style inbox. A clean, full-screen inbox at Messages lets you read and reply to conversations, with contact autocomplete when starting a new one.
    • SMS-aware flows and analytics. Switch a flow between voice and SMS, and see texting activity reflected in your analytics.
    • A public marketing site. A new home on the web to share what HUM can do.

    Fixes

    • The mobile menu no longer clips behind the page.
    • Clearer guidance about why a new conversation may be unavailable.

  1. Live agents, a browser softphone, and Bea Meetv0.2.3

    Bring real people into the conversation — and step beyond calls into live meetings.

    What's new

    • Live agent queue and browser softphone. Bea can transfer a caller to a live agent, who takes the call right in their browser — no extra hardware needed.
    • An AI co-pilot for agents. While an agent is on a call, HUM transcribes the caller live and surfaces helpful suggestions, then writes a post-call summary.
    • Bea Meet. Host video meetings with a waiting room, secure invite links, and one-time passcodes for peace of mind.
    • An AI tool marketplace. Extend what Bea can do with reusable tools, including the ability to send a text message mid-call.
    • Per-flow model choice. Pick the AI voice model that best fits each flow.

    Fixes

    • Smoother, more consistent voice handling during transfers and lookups.

    Classic phone-tree convenience, plus easier ways to deal with unwanted callers.

    What's new

    • Press-1 keypad menus. Bea can now navigate touch-tone (DTMF) menus, so HUM works smoothly with traditional phone systems and IVR prompts.

    Fixes

    • Action menus on the call detail page now stack cleanly and are easier to tap.

  1. Billing, an admin portal, and smarter call flowsv0.2.0

    HUM grows up: flexible billing, a powerful admin portal, and call flows that know when to do something different.

    What's new

    • Simple, flexible billing. Subscriptions with usage-based overage, so you only pay for what you use.
    • A site admin portal. Admins can manage organizations, users, and calls, and adjust plans all in one place.
    • Flow-to-flow handoffs. A flow can pass a caller along to another flow when it makes sense — great for routing between departments.
    • Business-hours awareness. Flows can behave differently after hours, so callers always get the right experience.
    • Visual call diagrams. See how a call flow branches with an interactive diagram.
    • Chat-platform alerts. Send call and voicemail notifications straight to Slack, Teams, or Rocket.Chat, complete with transcripts and recording links.

    Fixes

    • Smoother handling when a caller talks over Bea (barge-in).
    • More reliable live call updates.
    • Data tables follow your light/dark theme correctly.

  1. Live call insights and a refreshed settings experiencev0.1.1

    A wave of polish that makes calls easier to follow as they happen and settings easier to manage.

    What's new

    • Watch calls unfold live. The call detail page now updates in real time so you can follow an in-progress call as it happens.
    • See cost and usage per call. Each call shows a clear breakdown of what it cost, right alongside the transcript.
    • Voice dictation for flows. Speak your changes and HUM turns them into flow updates.
    • A cleaner Settings page. Settings got a top-to-bottom refresh, with tabs that stay in sync with the page so you can share and bookmark exactly where you were.

    Fixes

    • Phone number fields now format consistently as you type.
    • Call timeline markers line up accurately with the call's real duration.
    • The call volume chart renders correctly.

  1. Meet Bea — your always-on AI phone agentv0.1.0

    The very first release of BlueHive HUM. Bea answers your calls in a natural, human-sounding voice, around the clock, so every caller reaches a friendly, helpful agent instead of a dead end.

    What's new

    • Bea answers and places calls. A natural-voice AI agent greets callers, understands what they need, and handles the conversation — for both inbound and outbound calls.
    • Build call flows in plain English. Describe how you want a call handled and HUM drafts the flow for you, then lets you fine-tune it visually.
    • Smart transfers with voicemail fallback. Bea can hand off to the right person or team, and gracefully take a voicemail when no one's available.
    • Recordings, transcripts, and voicemail inbox. Every call is recorded with a clear waveform player, and voicemails arrive transcribed and ready to play.
    • Your own phone numbers. Bring your numbers into HUM and get going quickly.
    • Contacts, blocklist, and analytics. Keep track of who's calling, block unwanted numbers, and see how your call volume is trending.
    • Team invites and webhooks. Invite your teammates and connect HUM to the tools you already use.
