What's New

Recent updates and improvements.

October 14, 2026

  • A simpler workspace: Team, Recipe Builder, Voice Studio and the Grow navigation group are retired. Narration voice choices stay in your video editor.
  • Compilations: choose completed videos across pages, drag or use your keyboard to reorder segments, and export without spending generation credits. A title is suggested automatically.
  • Storyboard videos now link back to their original storyboard for editing. Series show Pause, Resume or Restart, including stopped series, while keeping source history.

October 10, 2026

  • Change a host's voice any time: every persona card now has a Change voice button — pick a voice and delivery style, hear a preview, save. Existing hosts made before this week are on the older Alloy voice; switch them to Cedar, Marin, Ash or Coral for a more natural read.

October 6, 2026

  • Post it yourself: every finished video now has Download as the main button, plus a ready-to-copy title, caption and hashtags written for it — tap Copy, paste into the app you post with. Tsuyu makes the video; you post it where you like.
  • New: Make it yours. One tap retells a Reddit post (or tidies your script) in your own voice — with a hook, your own reactions and a verdict — so your video isn't just a reading of someone else's post. Pick an angle, keep it or try another, and undo any time.

October 5, 2026

  • Much more natural narration: voices now follow your delivery style — real pauses, tension and warmth instead of a flat read — plus seven new voices (Marin, Cedar, Coral, Ash, Sage, Ballad and Verse).
  • Hosts sound like they look: every ready-made host comes with a matching voice and delivery, and the create page shows whose voice will narrate.
  • See real examples before you sign up: the home page now has a carousel of videos made in Tsuyu, each labelled with what it started from — a Reddit post or a pasted script.
  • Clearer pages: a touch more contrast between sections, cards and buttons in the light theme.

October 4, 2026

  • A fresh look: Tsuyu is now light by default — brighter pages, a new rain-blue accent, and a new mark (the kanji for rain inside a droplet) on the tab icon, home-screen icon and logo. Prefer the old dark look? Switch in Settings → Appearance (Light, Dark, or follow your device).
  • Animated intro is back: for 15 credits, your host moves and talks naturally for the opening seconds of a video — human, animal, or robot hosts all keep their art style.
  • Fixed a mouth-shape bug in some videos — host lips now reliably match the words instead of falling back to simple open-and-closed.

September 30, 2026

  • 12 new ready-made avatar hosts, one for every kind of channel — storytime, horror, true crime, gaming, memes, tech, explainers, history and finance, beauty, fitness, food, and wholesome.
  • Describe a host and Tsuyu draws it for you, checking its own work so the art and the talking mouth actually match.
  • Expression packs: add eight new poses to any host — happy, thinking, defeated, determined, skeptical, celebrating, mind-blown, shocked.
  • Hosts now blink, breathe, and shape their mouths to match the words as they speak, instead of just opening and closing.
  • Choose where your host appears and how big — any corner, bottom center, or front and center like a VTuber — captions move out of the way automatically.
  • Animated manga panels are back for Pro: each drawn panel can play as a short looping clip. You're only charged if every panel gets its clip; otherwise it's free and the video uses stills.
  • Fixed: avatar hosts were sometimes showing up as a tiny sticker in the corner, especially on vertical videos — now sized properly.

September 19, 2026

  • New on phones: a bottom tab bar puts Videos, Discover, Create, Review, and More in thumb reach — no more opening a menu to get anywhere.
  • The Create button now lives in the middle of that bar instead of floating over your content.
  • Your remaining videos now show right in the phone header — trial users see the countdown and a one-tap way to upgrade before it hits zero.
  • Pro-only tools like Voice Studio now show a Pro badge in the menu instead of being hidden, so you can see what's there.
  • Pricing, Terms, Privacy, and Support are now linked from the bottom of every dashboard page.
  • A fresh look: a new display typeface on headings, brighter primary buttons, and a soft glow behind your finished video.

September 5, 2026

  • Title Lab: turn one idea into ranked title, hook, and thumbnail variants — plus recommendations mined from your own best-performing videos.
  • Team workspaces: invite editors and clients by email, manage roles, and share one workspace.
  • New content type: Fake Texts — turn a premise into a two-voice text-message conversation video, bubbles and all.
  • Delivery style for narration: pick how the voice reads your script (dramatic, upbeat, calm, and more).
  • Pick a thumbnail style per series — cartoon, minimalist, realistic, and more.
  • Duplicate detection: if someone re-submits your script or poster through another account, you now get a theft alert.
  • Active sessions in Settings: see everywhere you're signed in, and sign out remotely.

August 29, 2026

  • New: free trial — try any plan free for 30 days (up to 3 videos, cancel anytime). Every pricing button now starts a trial instead of charging up front.
  • Your video analytics are live: views, likes, and top performers from your published YouTube videos now show real numbers across the dashboard.
  • New on Analytics: see whether the videos you make here actually outperform the rest of your channel, compared fairly against your own recent uploads.
  • New: create Compilations — merge finished videos into one chaptered long-form video, right from the All Videos page.
  • New: one-click AI thumbnail generator on every finished video's page.
  • Cancel a stuck or unwanted render without deleting it — confirmed undelivered allocations return credits through a durable receipt.
  • Cleaned up the background library: every listed background now actually renders.

August 24, 2026

  • Multi-language dubs now generate reliably — turning a finished video into another language, with a matching voiceover, completes dependably, including for longer scripts.
  • All your AI b-roll clips now play — fixed an issue where only the first of several AI-generated background clips would appear in the final video.
  • Clearer background choice on the create page — the summary now shows "AI b-roll" when you've selected it, instead of still reading "Default background".
  • Full edit form on the quick-edit page — the action bar at the bottom no longer covers part of the form, and the "Re-render video" button is easier to read.
  • Polished email notifications — welcome, email verification, video-ready, and billing emails now render correctly and are consistently branded.

August 5, 2026

  • Smoother live progress updates — the progress bar while your video is generating is now more reliable.
  • Easier to tap on mobile — several buttons and controls across the dashboard were too small to hit reliably on a touchscreen; fixed throughout.
  • Fixed a video-page bug — a failed delete or retry no longer wipes the whole page, you just see a clear error instead.
  • Fixed invisible controls on mobile — a few buttons, like removing a subreddit in Discover, couldn't be seen or tapped on a phone.
  • More accessible caption toggles — caption style switches now work with keyboard navigation and screen readers.

July 27, 2026

  • Clearer errors when something goes wrong — actions like "Shorten to fit" now show a clear message if they can't complete, instead of failing silently.
  • Multi-part series now respect your settings — voice, background, captions, and panel art settings now apply to every part of a series, not just the first.
  • More control over AI-drawn panels — the panel/storyboard generator now supports a custom art style, a negative prompt, a creativity slider, and a reproducible seed.
  • Copy your script in one click — added a Copy Script button on the create page.
