Week of September 29, 2026

Auto stopped sending ordinary jobs to the most expensive engine, and a shared receipt card now shows when your job actually ran.

This week was about the bill being right. When you leave the engine on Auto, it is supposed to pick the lightest engine that can do the job. For jobs that came with a file attached or an add-on switched on, it was not doing that: it picked Max every time, so an everyday job like turning a receipt into a spreadsheet cost several times what it should have. That is repaired, and the receipt under each reply still shows which engine ran so you can check it yourself.

The receipt card you can share from any finished job also got more honest. Every card used to print the same sample date, time and serial number, whatever the job. It now prints when your job actually ran, and the serial number, which never referred to anything, is gone.

With the engine on Auto, a job that had a file attached or an add-on switched on was always sent to Max, whatever it asked for. Auto now judges these jobs like any other. On the same day it was repaired, a job turning a photographed receipt into an Excel sheet ran on Smart for $0.36, and a request to think hard about a question still went to Max, for $0.19.

You can still choose an engine yourself for any job; see Model prices for what each one costs.

The card you can make from a finished job’s receipt printed the same sample date, time and serial number on every card. It now prints the date and time your job ran, and leaves the line off rather than guess when that is not known. The serial number is gone, because there was never anything for it to refer to.
