Strella Changelog – April 10, 2026

This week we shipped a redesigned participant table, automatic participant payments, and AI-powered participant ratings for new projects.

Redesigned participant table for new projects

New projects now use an upgraded participant management table with custom columns, inline field editing, and the ability to do CSV imports.

Automatic participant payments

Participants in new projects are paid automatically 7 days after their session. If something went wrong, you can challenge the session within that window to get a refund — no more manual approvals to release payments.

AI-powered participant ratings and auto-invite

Panel participants now receive a 1–5 star AI rating directly in the participant table, scoring research fit, consistency, and engagement so you can spot strong candidates at a glance. Turn on Auto invite to automatically invite top-rated panelists and eligible self-recruited participants.

Small fixes

  • Workspace sidebar: creating, renaming, or deleting workspaces now updates the sidebar and menus instantly
  • Faster loading: pages across the app now load noticeably faster
  • Panel payments: closing a panel order now pays participants immediately
  • Survey modals: survey pop-ups no longer disappear between questions
  • Screen share recordings: duplicate webcam overlay removed from playback
