September 2025
API
  • Introduced Secrets Management: securely store and reference API keys, credentials, and sensitive values in jobs.
  • Added Upload configuration block: control output destinations with S3 support, custom prefixes, ACLs, and outputUrl overrides.
  • Added Render settings: configure output type (video, image), frame ranges, codecs, and quality (draft, full).
  • Added autodetection of .AEP files in project archives. Removed requirement for .AEP to be at archive root.
  • Webhook no longer requires a method field provided and now defaults to POST.
  • Fixed: Webhooks would get fired with queued status on failed attempts. We now only fire a webhook on either a finished or a final error state.
Worker
  • Implemented Smart Caching: frequently used templates are cached locally, cutting download times significantly on repeated renders.
​
August 2025
API
  • Improved support for Google Cloud Platform storage.
  • Enhanced font deletion logic for better resource cleanup.
  • Added outputUrl field to GET /api/v2/jobs/:id response for direct access to rendered output.
  • Added support for Essential Properties in Motion Graphics templates (docs).
  • Enforced TIMECODE display setting in After Effects during render for consistency.
  • Refined job creation pipeline for improved throughput and reliability.
  • Added color parsing support for Essential parameters, expanding creative flexibility.
Worker
  • Enhanced logging for improved transparency.
  • Updated MOGRT parsing logic for better compatibility with AE templates.
  • Improved asset fetching logic, making it more reliable in varied network conditions.
  • Lifecycle improvements for better performance and resilience.
​
July 2025
API
  • Added quality parameter ("draft", "best") to the nx:preview asset function, allowing finer control over preview renders.
  • Switched to 7z decompression as the primary driver for .zip template handling, improving performance and compatibility.
  • Increased JSON payload size limit to support larger templates during parsing.
Worker
  • Improved template parsing logic for greater accuracy and speed.
  • Introduced lifecycle changes to enhance resource management and fault tolerance.
​
June 2025
API
  • Fixed critical bugs improving reliability.
  • Enhanced webhook logging for better debugging and monitoring.
Worker
  • General stability improvements leading to more consistent job execution.

May 2025
Job Scalability with Reserved Workers We now support reserved workers — dedicated rendering nodes for teams requiring guaranteed performance. If all reserved nodes are busy, jobs automatically fall back to a shared, slower pool to ensure eventual processing without failure. (Currently offered to selected clients.)Job Parenting Logic Improved Refactored internal logic for dependent/related jobs to better support future features like job chains and batches.Bug Fixes Resolved bugs related to job tracking and template rendering stability.
​
April 2025
Template Validation & Deep Parsing Newly uploaded templates are now automatically validated and introspected. We extract key metadata:
  • Available compositions
  • Editable layers
  • Embedded .mogrt parameters
    This paves the way for advanced job setup via UI and API.
Performance & Reliability Upgrades Improved API throughput and reduced latency on template upload and font processing.Bug Fixes Resolved issues affecting asset rendering in edge cases.
​
March 2025
Jobs API v2 Launched A completely new and powerful way to manage rendering jobs at scale. Key features:
  • Templates: reusable AEP/MOGRT/ZIP projects for rapid job issuing.
  • Fonts: centralized font management — no need to host fonts externally.
  • Smarter webhook handling, including custom data payloads.
  • Clearer job lifecycle visibility: track, retry, and introspect with ease.
  • Support for [nx asset functions] to control layers dynamically inside jobs.
​
February 2025
Job Redaction Layer For privacy-conscious users, job data is now automatically sanitized after 3 days (render logs, asset paths, etc).Bug Fixes Addressed 2 stability issues related to font uploads and job progress syncing.
​
January 2025
Dedicated API Service Migration We’ve migrated all job-related operations to a separate service — this unlocks:
  • Independent scaling
  • Faster deploy cycles
  • Greater reliability under load
Foundational Optimizations Major refactors behind the scenes: faster queueing, improved monitoring, and more resilient error recovery.
