Release Highlights - May 2026

In May we opened Admire up to the AI tools you already use, made coaching feel more personal, and gave your notes and reports more structure. Here are the highlights.

Connect Your Own AI

You can now reach into Admire from the AI assistant you already use, like Claude, and have it work on your behalf. We expanded what your AI can do: it can now read and update your artifacts, dashboards, queries, and role metrics, capture tasks, wins, and notes on your people, and (for admins) adjust organization settings. Just describe what you want in plain language and let your assistant handle the busywork. See our Connect Your AI guide to set it up.

More Personal Coaching

AI coaching now feels more like a real conversation. Coaching addresses each person by their first name, holds onto context more reliably across a session, and continues to frame itself as a safe place to learn rather than a test. Small touches, but they add up to coaching that feels genuinely yours. More in our AI Coaching overview.

Organize Your Notes

Notes are easier to make sense of now that you can categorize them. Every note can be tagged as a general note, a task to follow up on, or a win worth recognizing, and you can filter your list by type to quickly find what you’re looking for. It’s a simple way to keep follow-ups and accomplishments from getting buried. See our Notes guide for details.

See Where Skills Stand

A new Skills Analysis report gives you a clearer read on how your team’s skills are distributed, so you can spot strengths and gaps at a glance. Combined with the charting improvements rolling out across reports, it’s easier than ever to turn skill data into a decision. Learn more in our Reporting overview.

Additional Updates

• You can now re-open and share a meeting even after it’s been completed.
• Meetings auto-expand to reveal the skills that already have observations, so you land right where the action is.
• Previous notes now show who made each observation, giving you better context at a glance.
• Admins can “view as” another role to see exactly what a teammate experiences, handy for setting up permissions. See Impersonating Users.

Until Next Time

That’s it for May. As always, we’d love to hear your feedback. Reach out any time with questions or ideas!
