Changelog

Recent updates and improvements to Peel.

January 21, 2026

Bulletproof Batch Processing — Switched to Netlify Edge Functions (Deno) which have no timeout waiting for AI responses. Large batches no longer fail at ~30 seconds.
8x Parallel Jobs — Increased concurrent processing from 2 to 8 jobs with 100ms stagger delay (was 1-2s). Batches complete significantly faster.

Duplicate Prompt Button — Added "Duplicate" action to text input cards with drop-in animation.
UI Fixes — Fixed "Send as Chat" label overlap, removed icon from "Cancel Job" link.

Download Modal — Export as WEBP, PNG, or JPG with custom filenames. Select images and download as ZIP.
Large File Handling — Auto-detect and compress images over 4MB, with option to rename or skip.
Free Resize — Resize locally without AI when only changing size/ratio—instant and free.
Fix — Preset aspect ratios now work correctly for AI images.

Quality Picker — Choose output resolution: SD (1K), HD (2K), or 4K. Moved from the generate button to a dedicated inline picker for easier access.
Aspect Ratio Picker — Select from preset aspect ratios: Auto (AI decides), Square (1:1), Portrait (4:5), Story (9:16), Wide (16:9), and Photo (3:2).
Custom Size / Exact Dimensions — Specify exact pixel dimensions (e.g., 400×600) for your output images. The system automatically selects optimal generation settings and resizes to your exact specifications. Minimum size: 256×256.
Improved Controls Layout — Quality and ratio pickers now appear as compact inline controls in the chat footer, keeping the interface clean while making settings more accessible.
Relocated Cancel Button — The "Cancel Job" action now appears in the Results column header near the timer for better visibility during processing.

Generate button label — "Make Single Image" or "Make X Images" based on mode
