The highlight of this edition is Weather: the customer asks how the weather will be in their city and the agent answers on the spot, with a forecast of up to 5 days and the official alerts from INMET. Plus four more news items: Journeys with ready-made tools, Generate image with format and photos, the dashboard with messages per day on the right dates and two new agent controls.

The agent that tells the weather

With the Clima (Weather) tool turned on, the agent answers about the weather in any city in Brazil. The customer asks "how will the weather be in Curitiba tomorrow?" or "is there any alert in my area?", and the agent handles it right there. You can give the city name, the postal code (CEP) or the IBGE code.

  • Tempo agora (Weather now): the current part of the day (morning, afternoon or night), from the INMET forecast. It is not a measurement taken this minute.
  • Previsão de até 5 dias (Forecast of up to 5 days): what to expect for the city over the coming days.
  • Alertas oficiais (Official alerts): the severe weather warnings issued by INMET (Brazil's National Institute of Meteorology) for the city.
  1. In Integrações › Tools (Integrations › Tools), in the Utilitários (Utilities) row, turn on the switch on the Clima card. The tool arrives turned off for the whole organization.
  2. In the agent, under Tools, turn on the Clima card and check the functions it can use. The counter shows how many of the 3 are on.
  • You need: nothing beyond the Hub. The data comes from INMET, with no key and no account on another service, and the agent only looks things up.
  • Not yet: "Chuva hora a hora" (Hour-by-hour rain) shows on the card as "Em breve" (Coming soon). For now Weather belongs to the agent: the "Usar tool" (Use tool) step in Journeys does not offer it yet.

Journeys with ready-made tools

In the "Usar tool" (Use tool) step of Journeys, you can now query these tools without an agent in between. Each function shows on screen what already works and what is still "Em breve" (Coming soon).

  • Moedas (Currencies): today's rate, the rate on a date, change over a period and value conversion. It is the Central Bank of Brazil's official rate (PTAX), not live.
  • Calculadoras (Calculators): due date, installments of a loan, compound interest and discount or markup.
  • Tabela FIPE (FIPE table): reference price, price history and the list of makes and models. "Achar o veículo" (Find the vehicle) is still "Em breve".
  • Códigos Brasil (Brazil codes): state and cities of an area code (DDD), NCM code, bank by code, Pix participant, book by ISBN and .br domain. "Código IBGE do município" (Municipality IBGE code) is still "Em breve".
  • Feriados Nacionais (National holidays): "Verificar se é feriado" (Check if it is a holiday).
  • Indicadores econômicos (Economic indicators): "Acumulado e correção de valor" (Accumulated rate and value adjustment). "Valor atual" (Current value) and "Histórico" (History) are still "Em breve".

The tool must be turned on in Integrações › Tools to show up in the step.

Generate image with format and photos

In the "Gerar imagem" (Generate image) step of Journeys, you choose how the image comes out:

  • Format: horizontal (16:9), vertical (9:16), vertical (2:3), vertical (3:4) or square (1:1). If you choose none, the format of the Generate image tool applies.

  • Starting photos: from none to three. Each photo comes from a record file with the tag you indicate or from a fixed file in the Files library (PNG, JPG or WebP). With two or three photos, the image is a montage.

  • Description: up to 10,000 characters.

  • Cost: the step says what the image cost: the amount, "em cálculo" (being calculated, it shows in the Statement when it closes), "conta isenta" (exempt account), "modelo gratuito" (free model) or "chave própria" (your own key, with no Simplafy credit charge).

  • Good to know: with your company's OpenAI key, the 3:4 format is refused before charging. "Arquivo de um passo anterior" (File from a previous step) and PDF show as "Em breve". To publish a Journey with this step, the Generate image tool must be turned on and whoever publishes must be an administrator.

Messages per day, on the right dates

On the dashboard, the "Mensagens por dia" (Messages per day) chart is now one bar per day of the period you chose, with the real dates. And the day follows Brasília time: a message sent between 9 pm and midnight stays on its own day, not the next one. "Today" is also Brasília's.

More control over the agent

Two new switches in the agent editor. Both start turned off: nothing changes until you turn them on.

  • Parar o agente se ele entrar em laço (Stop the agent if it gets into a loop), under Tools. When on, you set the maximum number of tools per reply (from 5 to 60, default 15) and how many times the same call can repeat before stopping (from 2 to 10, default 3). Higher numbers can spend more AI credit.
  • Mostrar data e hora das mensagens ao agente (Show the date and time of messages to the agent), under Memory. The agent sees the day and time each message arrived, which avoids, for example, greeting again someone who already talked today.

And more

  • Distância e Trajeto (Distance and Route). New tool: with your company's Google Maps key, the agent calculates distance and time between two addresses or postal codes, describes the route in text and finds the nearest place. "Tempo com trânsito" (Time with traffic) and "Transporte público" (Public transport) are still "Em breve". It arrives turned off, and the Hub will not let you turn it on without the key.
  • Email is no longer "Em breve". The agent sends email through the channel's mailbox, with an attachment when Arquivos Inteligentes (Smart Files) is on for the agent. It still does not reply to, list or read emails.
  • Journey errors easier to find. In the editor's bar, "N erros em 24 h" (N errors in 24 h) opens that Journey's Executions with errors, and the step that failed gets a mark. When you try to publish with open items, a list shows everything that is missing, with "Abrir" (Open) on each step.
  • Telegram with "typing" until the end. The signal stays on from the moment the person writes until the reply goes out.
  • Inbox. The contact's photo from Telegram and Instagram shows in the list and in the Contact panel. And the conversation scrolls down by itself when a message arrives and you are at the bottom; if you scrolled up to read, it does not drag you and shows the new message notice.
  • Phone numbers outside the standard are refused. When registering a contact or a deal, and when sending through a Journey, the Hub asks you to fix the phone number instead of quietly adjusting it and sending to another number.
  • Unsubscribe only with confirmation. Whoever opens a campaign's unsubscribe link sees a confirmation page and leaves the list only by clicking "Confirmar descadastro" (Confirm unsubscribe). Before, just opening the link already unsubscribed them.
  • Nota Fiscal (Invoices). In the service, selection lists for the codes (LC 116, national code, NBS and CNAE), with search by code or word.
  • Buttons refused on WhatsApp. When Meta refuses a message's buttons, the contact gets the same question as text, just once.
  • Official WhatsApp "Só pela plataforma" (Platform only). The channel screen gained the step by step "Para testar no celular" (To test on your phone).
  • Configurações › Conta (Settings › Account). "Meus assistentes" (My assistants) became a page of its own. And the photo field is now the same everywhere: Enviar foto (or Trocar foto) and Remover (Upload photo, Change photo, Remove).
  • Names of the native tools. "Simplafy: CRM", "Simplafy: Tabela de Dados", "Simplafy: Arquivos" and "Simplafy: Agent Control" become "Fy: CRM", "Fy: Tabelas", "Fy: Arquivos" and "Fy: Controle". Only the label changes.
  • Hub in Claude and ChatGPT. People who use the Hub through OAuth are no longer disconnected when they sign out of the Hub in the browser. And, through the full MCP address, the assistant gained contact notes, Deal and Service Order items, discounts on items and the guided mode (search, view and run tools).
