We predict incredible innovation and worker empowerment in 2025!
As we close the chapter on 2024, we reflect on a year that has been nothing short of transformative. From groundbreaking advancements in work instructions to support for new hardware to forging stronger partnerships within aerospace, manufacturing, and defense, this year was a testament to our team’s resilience and creativity. Our milestones were not just achievements; they were stepping stones to a bigger, bolder vision. Now, as we step into 2025, we’re more energized than ever to empower more workforces and redefine what’s possible in worker productivity. Let’s take a closer look at where we’ve been and where we’re heading.
Empowering our customers and users in 2024
Our team had an incredibly innovative and productive 2024, delivering 3 major product releases, numerous point releases, and support for more devices – all driven by solving customer pain points. Some highlights include:
Change management and editorial control in Manifest 3.0
As larger organizations expand their use of Manifest, we’ve introduced enhanced user roles, logic, and workflows to streamline the creation, publication, and management of work instructions. These updates ensure precise version control, comprehensive activity archiving, and robust compliance, traceability, and accountability at every step. Read more.
Flexible organizational structures with Manifest 4.0
Orgs was designed to provide a flexible and powerful way to organize data, manage access to your work instructions, structure workflows within Manifest, and enable OEMs to manage their customers content and work. Whether you’re collaborating across departments, coordinating teams across locations, tailoring content by skill level or function, or partitioning customer data, Orgs equips you with the tools to efficiently structure and secure your content, ensuring seamless operations and enhanced control.

Accelerated and simplified authoring with AI and AR
We remain dedicated to providing best-in-class authoring tools that make capturing and documenting knowledge faster and more intuitive. In 2024, we took a significant leap forward with the introduction of AI-powered features in Manifest Maker 2.0, enabling users to effortlessly convert videos into detailed step-by-step guides in seconds—with the ability to transform existing manuals coming soon. Additionally, we introduced an innovative Hand Note feature, allowing experts to record their hand movements in AR, delivering unparalleled context and clarity for less experienced workers.
New devices and platforms
We also remain committed to supporting the devices and platforms our customers rely on today and plan to adopt in the future. In 2024, we introduced significant usability enhancements for iPad, launched our first product supporting iPhone and Apple Vision Pro, to leverage their capabilities as creation tools, and delivered an early build for DigiLens’ Argo. Additionally, Manifest 2.9 paved the way for future device compatibility by adding support for MRKT3, ensuring our platform stays at the forefront of innovation.
Accelerating impact in 2025
We anticipate 2025 to be even more transformative, with a wave of innovations designed to elevate how work instructions are created, shared, and utilized—whether with or without AR, across small teams, or at the scale of large organizations. Expect expanded AI-driven capabilities, enhanced device support, and deeper integration with Apple platforms, ensuring our solutions fit seamlessly into diverse workflows and workforces.
On the customer front, we’re managing our largest and most complex deployments of Manifest to date, revealing fresh opportunities to empower workers to learn and perform their roles more proficiently. These insights are fueling a new cycle of innovation, setting the stage for groundbreaking advancements in 2025.
We’re also introducing two new ways to engage with our team, designed to accelerate your deployment, assessment, and adoption of Manifest work instructions. These managed programs pair our product experts with your teams to document and implement your unique procedural workflows, driving immediate impact on training and operations.
Rapid Insights Program
This program delivers measurable and actionable insights to help you design the transformation of your workforce.
