The AI allowance is shared by everyone in the workspace and resets on the 1st of each month. Web searches use more of it than other requests. If the workspace reaches it, the app says: “Monthly token limit reached for this workspace. The limit resets on the 1st. If you need to continue this month, contact your admin.” Need more this month? contact us.
Known Limitations
Real-Time Collaboration
Threader does not currently support real-time collaboration. If two people edit the same project simultaneously, the last save wins. Coordinate with your team to avoid overwrites.
Offline Mode
Threader works offline for viewing and editing saved projects. However:
- AI generation requires an internet connection
- Cloud sync happens when you're back online
- Local drafts may differ from cloud versions if edited on multiple devices
Mobile Experience
The app is functional on mobile but designed for desktop. Complex tools like Listener and Promise work best with a larger screen.
Export Formats
Exports are Word (.docx), PowerPoint (.pptx) and clipboard copy. Every tool except Ad Storyboard exports Word. The Signal, The Playbook and The Offer also export PowerPoint, and The Signal builds the pitch deck. Two tools make a PDF: The Evidence’s Download Report and Ad Storyboard’s Download PDF.
Performance Tips
- Slow AI responses: Complex inputs take longer. If it times out, try simpler inputs or regenerate.
- App feels slow: Clear browser cache and reload. Check your internet connection.
- Large libraries: If you have 50+ saved projects in a tool, the library may load slowly. Export and archive old projects.
Accessibility
We're working to improve accessibility. Current status:
- Keyboard navigation: Partial support
- Screen readers: Basic support (improving)
- Colour contrast: Meets WCAG AA for primary content
If you encounter accessibility issues, let us know.
Roadmap Items
Features we're working on:
- Real-time collaboration
