The headline this release is a new surface for instructors — and, underneath it, a set of changes that make the whole platform a bit more open and a lot more reliable.
Folio Classroom (new)
Share one assignment link in your syllabus. Every student who submits does so from Folio, so each submission arrives with a verifiable record of how it was written — the drafting process, the citations, the AI use — instead of a detector's guess about the finished text.
- Students see a clean join-and-submit page; no account setup friction.
- You get every submission in one place, each with its integrity certificate.
- You're notified when work lands (throttled, never spammy), and students see their assignments on their own dashboard.
It's free for instructors. See the instructor guide for the full flow.
A real look at Radar, free
Research Radar — your standing agents that watch the literature — now shows a live free-tier sample instead of a bare upgrade wall. You can see what it actually surfaces before deciding it's worth it.
Referral rewards, self-serve
Invite a colleague and claim your reward months yourself — no support ticket, no waiting. The whole loop now runs on its own.
Quieter, steadier
We shipped Folio Watchtower, our own production error tracking, so we see and fix problems — often before anyone reports them. A batch of reliability fixes rode along with it (server-side exports, a hydration cleanup on the dashboard, and a roster crash caught the day it appeared).
