What has changed in Periscope. This log tracks what ships.
Signing in now begins warming up the vision model in the background, so it is often ready by the time you upload your first document. The first check of a session feels noticeably quicker, with no change to how later checks work.
There is now a Contact page, linked from the footer, with a simple form to send us a note. Leave your email and a message and the team will get back to you.
The metadata extraction step now reports the number of fields actually read from your document, so it lines up with the fields listed in the result below. It no longer counts empty placeholders the document does not carry.
Sharing a Periscope link in Slack, WhatsApp, X, LinkedIn, or iMessage now shows a clean branded card with the Periscope lockup and tagline, instead of a bare URL.
Following a broken or mistyped link now lands on a calm Periscope page that explains the address wasn't found and points you back to the app or the help center, instead of a generic error screen.
The console now leads with a large preview of the document you are checking on the left, with the verification levels, result, and history beside it. While a check runs, a soft band sweeps down the document as it is read.
A toggle in the header opens a deeper view with the full analysis and the raw result behind every check, each in its own section you can expand as needed.
The help articles now show small live examples: an upload, the three checks running in order, and the fields being read out, so the walkthrough is easier to picture.
The landing page now opens with an animated console that plays a verification as you arrive: a document is read, the checks resolve, and the result fills in with its scores and fields. It runs in both light and dark, and settles into the finished result.
The How it works and result sections now show illustrated views of a document being uploaded, read, and verified, so it is easier to picture what Periscope does before you open it.
