Dessa AI updates: research release and access baseline
This Dessa AI updates entry separates the research announcement from public access, API and download milestones.
- Access
- API
- Downloads
These Dessa AI updates record what was checked on 25 October 2026. The research announcement was posted on 23 October 2026, 16:38 UTC. An announcement date is not a public-access date.
Public access
Block's official page offers recordings and a safety-research contact form. We did not verify a general-public conversation service on that page. The access guide distinguishes replaying recordings, applying for research access and using a live product. This website does not run Dessa conversations.
API and integration
No public developer documentation or pricing was confirmed in the checked release material. Follow the API guide for the interface, permission and cost requirements that would make an integration possible. Research access is a separate permission.
Downloads and licensing
We did not verify a downloadable weights package or distribution license. Block's Mac runtime claim does not establish either. The download guide explains what to check before obtaining a package or buying hardware.
How future Dessa AI updates will be recorded
Each material change will identify its original source, observation date, previous and new state, and affected guide. A failed source check is not evidence of a shutdown. See our editorial policy for corrections and evidence standards.
