Pick up the Claude Code conversations already on your machine in Karea Connect, and give organisation admins switches for AI features and Connect, their own icon and contact email.

Notes, descriptions and meeting notes get a Notion-style block editor, your account gets optional two-factor sign-in, and Karea Connect gains file drop, background commands and a side-by-side Shared View.

Karea Connect runs Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode on your own machine, straight from a task, and lets you follow and steer them from inside Karea, end-to-end encrypted.

Karea now enforces who sees what in the database itself, notes get threaded replies that sync with Jira, and tasks get keyboard shortcuts for jumping between tabs.

Karea AI can now act on almost everything in the app, open questions get their own window and reminders, you choose which calendar events to import, and closing a parent task asks about its subtasks.

A new typeface, clickable green task IDs, a chat with bubbles that keeps it short when you ask, smarter AI task drafts, an editor that behaves, better meetings, and Apple Podcasts in the built-in player.

Listen to the Quran, online audio or your own files without leaving Karea, and create a task by describing it in one sentence. Plus a round of smaller updates and fixes.

Karea now connects properly to ChatGPT, Claude and the phone apps, opens on a full-screen greeting, and has a rebuilt new-task window with duplicate detection. Everything in this release, and why.

Karea's biggest update since launch: meetings with Google Calendar sync, planner placeholders for the things that aren't tasks yet, AI summaries per note and per thread, JIRA connected per project, a browser extension, and full API access on the free plan.
