What’s a Rich Text element?
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
Static and dynamic content editing
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
How to customize formatting for each rich text
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

Software Isn't Dead. What's Valuable Is Changing.
We recorded our AI Wave podcast a few weeks before the public market SaaSpocalypse. Since then, roughly $1T has been wiped from software and services stocks. The narrative: AI makes software easier to build and models are increasingly doing the work that renders SaaS products useless. So,software is dead?

Announcing Our Investment in Outset
Ask anyone who’s ever begun a term paper the night before it’s due: there are stark tradeoffs between research time and research quality. This is especially true of primary user research, one of the fundamental ways large enterprises can ensure their products resonate with customers. Historically, this has required a choice between user interviews, which are high-fidelity but slow, manual, and expensive, and surveys, which are scalable, cheaper, and faster, but often result in unrefined, low-signal data. Although there have been some strong companies on the survey side, e.g. Qualtrics and Medallia, this uneasy compromise has always persisted—until now.

Glimpse's $10M Series A to Rescue CPG Margins
For many consumers, the grocery aisle is the avatar of post-COVID inflation. Even as headline inflation has cooled (from 9.1% in June of 2022 to 2.8% in February of 2025), food prices remain stubbornly high, driving popular perceptions of gouging. $10 egg cartons, once confined to artisanal producers in Portland who know every hen by name, have hit big box stores. But grocery is a famously low-margin industry, and for CPG brands, the cost of doing business can be prohibitive.
