December Speckle Community StandUp: 2025 Year In Review - Dec 11th 3PM GMT

So @Community, we are hosting a Community StandUp. Not a retro. Just an hour with @Nikos and the team guiding us through a year where Speckle released so much, so quickly, that even the fast bits felt slow by comparison.

Workspaces matured. Markup arrived. Saved Views became so easy to use that it felt like they had always been there, and Presentations slotted neatly on top. Intelligence dashboards became the thing you proudly show to clients, even though it took three clicks instead of the previous six-hour InDesign marathon. Advanced filters opened up real model interrogation. specklepy 3 launched. Connectors improved everywhere. ACC integration moved forward. Model Validation became something normal people can use. Textures are coming to the web viewer. The Viewer got faster, which you overlooked because you uploaded models the size of small towns. Docs finally got overdue love. The website got rebuilt and then rebuilt again. And Automate shifted backstage, powering the magic behind the blue publish button without asking you to understand pipelines.

And Issues; well, Issues will be launched, almost launched, or launched just before we go live. This is the Speckle Community StandUp tradition. Over to you @Nikos :cool_spockle:

Because 2025 looked like separate things happening in parallel.
Hacker tools. Enterprise features. Client workflows. Infrastructure rewrites.
They were not random. They were the point: 2025 looked like many things; it behaved like one thing.

One system. One identity. One set of fingerprints. One motion.
One disperate set of tools with identical grooves where your hand fits?
One quiet throughline.

Which brings us back to the only definition that survived the year intact.

Join us. See the whole picture. Leave feeling a little more in control.

PS: Things we learned this year:

  • Dashboards become universally loved the moment they open quickly.
  • The Viewer can triple in speed, and the community will respond by uploading a model the size of a postal district.
  • And @haitheredavid owns a suit, which none of us had on our 2025 bingo cards.

Community stand-ups only work because the learning goes both ways.
So come and tell us what you discovered this year.

If you ever cut your hair, Jonathon might just lose it, apparently! So, save it for a good moment. :sweat_smile:
