0.12.4

Make a 3D model and presenter shorts, direct a video by clicking, a quicker first day, plainer answers, Dictate in documents, Check Macros, face swap, the newest video and picture models, and fixes for file icons, Remote Desktop, Photoshop files and Windows.

New

• Make a short with a presenter — Home → Short with a presenter makes a vertical talking-to-camera video from one request, with cutaways, captions and music. The script and one price come first, and nothing is paid for before you say yes.
• Make a 3D model — Home → Make a 3D model turns a picture of one object, or a few words, into a 3D model, filmed turning as a looping clip and put in a page where you turn and zoom it.
• Direct a video by clicking — In the video maker, Direction picks the genre, era, camera style, light and colour look, and each shot's camera moves, lens and emotion. Every move shows a small preview of what it does.
• The newest video and picture models — Kling 4.0, Wan 3.0, Grok Imagine Video 1.5, Luma Ray 3.2 and the open Wan 2.2 for video; Ideogram Vector and Hunyuan Image 3 for pictures. Your own OpenAI key now draws with GPT Image 2.6.
• AI on a clip in the video editor — The clip inspector can edit a clip from a typed instruction, relight it, or split its sound into voice, music and the rest. Each button shows the price first, and one undo puts it all back.
• Office templates and add-ins open — Text templates (.ott) open in the Word editor, and Excel add-ins (.xlam) and older templates (.xlt) in the spreadsheet, so you can look at an add-in's macros before you install it.
• Share a tab to watch only, or to control — The share pop-up asks "Can watch" or "Can control". Someone who can watch sees the page; someone with control uses the tab as you do.
• A quicker first day — Home offers one-click first jobs, "Try it" in the tour sends one straight away, and you can sign in from the message that asks you to. After your first answer, Tesseract offers to do something like it every day.
• Back where you left off — The app opens on your last conversation, with the cursor already in the message box.
• Plainer answers — Every answer comes from Tesseract, the model is "Recommended" or "Fast", and the usage gauge appears from 70%. The framework, the model's code name and the thinking level are in Expert mode.
• When an answer fails, the fix is one button — A failed answer says why in plain words and offers its fix as a single button.
• You approve bookings, payments and messages — A step that books, pays or sends something is put to you first, on every framework.
• Dictate in documents — Speak and your words go into the document where you are typing, with nothing lost on the way.
• Check Macros — A spreadsheet's macros can be read, and Check Macros gives you hints about what they could do before you run them.
• Face swap — Swap a face in a picture or in a video clip.

Fixes

• Other programs' files keep their own icons — Files Tesseract was not chosen for look as they did before, and the File types dialog ticks nothing for you.
• Photoshop files — CMYK, Lab and 16-bit PSDs open whole and in their true colours in the image editor and the picture viewer, transparency is kept, big files show in the viewer at any size, and a PSD too damaged to open is refused instead of freezing the window.
• Remote Desktop — Joining with a one-time code shows the screen again and no longer adds that computer to My Computers, a person is named by their account, a file you ask for while another is being sent arrives, and copying in a shared tab gives your guest what they selected, never what is on your clipboard.
• Windows — Uninstalling removes everything, the frameworks check works where PowerShell is blocked, and the app runs at normal processor, disk and memory priority when it starts with Windows or restarts on its own.
• Your folders and sessions — A drive or your whole home folder is never versioned, a Claude Code conversation that belongs to another app is never run by Tesseract unless you ask, a crashed Claude Code session no longer keeps its conversation waiting, and the crew finds your Claude Code sessions where you keep them.
• The song maker and HEIC photos — A part sung again is never paid for twice, even after a restart, and HEIC photos open in the app you used before 0.12.3 again.
• More fixes — The Mac app is about 55 MB smaller, a busy computer no longer gets the app restarted for being stuck, two computers restored from one no longer take turns in your list, a maker's own steps never show as your messages, saving a workbook that would lose its macros says so first, the conversation keeps its room in a mid-size window, All models opens inside the model panel, the comic maker is back among the assistant's makers, team chat shows typing and away again, a language picked at sign-in is used at once, and your work folder stays where you chose it.
