Version 1.3 · Release · September 2026
New name. And work that does not stop.
Airbuild 1.3 is the release that renamed XAIO to Airbuild: exhausted AI Tasks pause a turn instead of failing it, and every deployment target publishes from its own branch.
We are called Airbuild now — and this release makes the work run without breaks: when AI Tasks run out the turn pauses instead of failing, and carries on once you top up. Three new models in the picker. Every deployment target publishes from its own branch. Test runs, errors and backend logs are visible while they happen.
The name
Hello, Airbuild
Air is the cloud your software runs in — and how the work should feel getting there: light, nothing to install, nobody to wait for. Build is the other half, and it explains itself.
The whole storyFive highlights
What Version 1.3 adds.
Every demo runs on its own — this is how it looks in the workspace.
Running out is a pause
When the tasks run out mid-turn, nothing breaks. Everything done is kept, the card shows how far the plan got — and a top-up continues the same turn from the step it stopped on.
- “8 of 9 planned steps are done” instead of a red error
- Plans with add-ons buy inside the card and carry on without a reload
- Free accounts can ask for more tasks in the same card
Three new models, one default for your team
OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra joins the frontier models. DeepSeek V4.1 Flash replaces V4 Pro and now reads images too. Gemini 3.7 Flash takes over from 3.6.
- Cost, speed and quality are in the picker — before you choose
- Organizations set the model new projects start on
- DeepSeek is billed at the rate of the hour it actually ran
Every target publishes from its own branch
Publishing used to come from main, full stop. Now every deployment target remembers its own branch — and that branch is brought up to date before the release starts.
- Searchable branch list, with a refresh for a branch you just pushed
- A colleague's push is part of the release — instead of quietly missing
- The largest plan publishes a project without a cap
You can watch the work happen
A test run counts off live instead of hiding behind a spinner. And the badges, the Problems panel and “Fix with AI” finally count the same list.
- “10 of 20 checks done”, with a progress bar
- Connection dropped and back? The counter keeps going
- A visible fix button always points at a real error
The log as it happens
The backend log opens on the newest lines and follows new output as it arrives. Scroll up and it stops and holds your position.
- One click or key back to live
- Older lines load in batches
- Errors in view are counted for you
And much more
Everything else in Version 1.3.
Improvements across the platform — from chat and preview to domains, account and billing.
Chat & preview
- Colours by click — colour questions arrive as swatches plus a picker
- Scanned PDFs — can be attached like any other file
- One change, one update — the preview settles noticeably faster
- Idle projects stay quiet — no polling when nothing is running
Project & domains
- New projects start polished — premium design is the default
- Custom domains explain themselves — www or the bare domain, with copy buttons
- Restored versions — get a commit of their own
- Test runs leave nothing behind — no stray files in your history
Account & trust
- Account deletion — removes personal details, keeps required records
- Git access stays server-side — credentials never reach the browser
- Approval is announced — a mail the moment the account opens
