This week, Zero expands its creative toolkit with four new image models and 1080p Seedance video, while the connector catalog crosses 1,700 built-in services. Presentations now render on a consistent 1920×1080 canvas, and purchasing credits no longer depends on an active subscription. On August 24, Zero also made its home-page start cards available to every workspace, and we're hosting an AI meetup in San Francisco on August 26.
Four new image models
You can now ask Zero by name to generate images with FLUX.2 Pro, Ideogram 4, Seedream 5 Pro, or Qwen Image 3. Each gives you another option for moving from a prompt to a polished visual, whether you are exploring a concept, producing campaign artwork, or refining a specific style.
Name the model directly in your request when you want to use it. GPT Image 1 remains the default. We also retired gpt-image-1.5 and gpt-image-1-mini ahead of OpenAI's December 1 shutdown.
Seedance 2.5 now renders at 1080p
Seedance 2.5 can now produce 1080p video. Ask Zero to use Seedance 2.5 and specify 1080p when you need a higher-resolution final export; 720p remains available for faster, lower-cost iterations.
More than 1,700 built-in connectors
Zero's built-in connector catalog now includes more than 1,700 services. That gives your agents a much wider set of business systems, data sources, and specialist APIs to work with without building a custom integration first.
Box is this week's notable addition. Connect your Box account to let Zero access and manage files and folders alongside the rest of your workflow.
Presentations stay consistent at 1920×1080
Presentation artifacts now render on a fixed 1920×1080 canvas in the dialog, artifact sidebar, and fullscreen view. Zero scales the same canvas to each available space instead of recalculating the deck layout for every container.
That keeps line breaks, spacing, and composition consistent as you move between views, so the presentation you review is the presentation you export.
Easier credit purchases
Workspace admins can now manage Stripe payment methods even when the workspace has no active subscription. This makes it easier to update a card before buying credits or restarting a plan.
When you buy credits with a saved card, Zero now shows an in-app review step before the charge. You can confirm the amount due and the number of credits being added without leaving the product.
Smaller updates
- Markdown emphasis now parses correctly next to Chinese and Japanese punctuation.
- Opening another artifact replaces the content in the sidebar instead of reopening the panel.
- The presentation template picker now uses a category rail and gallery tiles.
- When you change models during an active run, Zero confirms that the change applies to the next run.
Start faster from the home page
Zero's chat landing page now shows three ready-made start cards beneath the composer for every workspace. Use them to jump into common starting points, such as creating a presentation, tracking keyword ranks with Ahrefs, or creating an illustration, without writing the first prompt from scratch.
Open a card to start immediately or browse its templates. The earlier limited rollout is over, so every workspace now gets the same fast-start experience.
Also on August 24: Zero's new pricing
On August 24, we introduced a more flexible pricing structure that separates workspace capabilities from each member's monthly usage. Pro keeps a $0 workspace base fee, while Team has a $160 monthly base fee with 10 concurrent runs; every member on a paid workspace chooses a monthly credit package based on their usage.
Existing paid subscriptions will not change automatically. Workspace admins can review the exact setup in Billing and decide whether to migrate; any change starts at the next renewal.

Join us in San Francisco on August 26
We're joining Frontier Tower for a small evening with non-technical founders about how AI is actually fitting into day-to-day work. Bring one thing you have tried and one thing you wish worked better; we'll compare workflows, share what's working, and give a quick look at what we're building at VM0.
Wednesday, August 26, 6:00–8:00 PM PDT at Frontier Tower, 995 Market Street, San Francisco.
That's everything for this update. Try the new features in Zero, and join us in San Francisco if you're nearby.
