What's New: February 2026 Product Updates

February was a big month for Abstrakt. Here's everything we shipped.

New Features

Semantic Caching (Beta)

Stop paying for similar prompts. Our new semantic caching feature identifies prompts that are similar enough to return cached results.

const result = await abstrakt.run('flux-schnell', {
  prompt: 'A golden retriever playing in the park',
  cache: {
    semantic: true,
    similarityThreshold: 0.92
  }
});

// Later, this hits the cache:
const similar = await abstrakt.run('flux-schnell', {
  prompt: 'Golden retriever playing at the park',
  cache: { semantic: true }
});
// Cache hit! Same result, no credits used.

Early users report 15-30% additional cache hits.

Status: Beta - enable in dashboard settings

New Video Models

We've added three new video models:

| Model | Best For | Speed |
|-------|----------|-------|
| Pika 1.5 | Stylized animations | Fast |
| Runway Gen-3 Alpha | Realistic scenes | Medium |
| Luma Dream Machine | Creative effects | Fast |

Try them in the Video Sandbox.

Webhook Retry Improvements

Webhooks now automatically retry with exponential backoff:

  • Attempt 1: Immediate
  • Attempt 2: 30 seconds
  • Attempt 3: 2 minutes
  • Attempt 4: 10 minutes
  • Attempt 5: 1 hour
  • View retry history in your dashboard under Webhooks → Delivery History.

    Usage Analytics API

    Programmatically access your usage data:

    const usage = await abstrakt.usage.query({
      startDate: '2026-02-01',
      endDate: '2026-02-28',
      groupBy: ['model', 'day']
    });
    
    // Returns detailed breakdown
    {
      "total_credits": 15420,
      "total_requests": 12350,
      "by_model": {
        "flux-schnell": { credits: 8000, requests: 8000 },
        "flux-dev": { credits: 4000, requests: 2000 },
        // ...
      }
    }
