How Kreativ Tools Uses Update Labels
The Updates page uses a small label set so you can scan what changed quickly. Each label has one job.
NEW
Use NEW when something did not exist before. That includes new tools, new pages, new guides, or new features added to an existing workflow.
Example: Image Crop added at /image/crop/.
UPDATE
Use UPDATE when something already existed and was meaningfully improved. This is the default label for better UX, stronger metadata, refreshed design, clearer copy, or expanded content.
Example: Learn landing page copy cleaned up and made more visitor-facing.
FIX
Use FIX when something was wrong, broken, inconsistent, or causing bad behavior. This label should stay blunt so the log remains honest.
Example: GitHub Pages routing corrected for trailing-slash category and tool links.
RELEASE
Use RELEASE only for milestone-level product states, not for ordinary daily work. This is the label for a meaningful version point like v0.9.0 or a future v1.0.0.
Example: v0.9.0 established as the first real product version baseline.
Simple rule
- If it did not exist before: NEW
- If it existed and got better: UPDATE
- If it existed and was wrong: FIX
- If it marks a milestone: RELEASE

Before you run a guided workflow
Use a guided workflow when the same job has several ordered steps. The workflow keeps the sequence visible, but the best result still depends on checking each stage before export. If you only need one quick action, use the matching single-purpose tool instead.
Workflows are meant for repeatable delivery patterns, not for hiding complexity. If the same image, PDF, or audio preparation job happens often, save the settings and reuse the sequence. If the job changes every time, use the individual tools so each decision stays visible.
- Load the source file once, then move through the steps in order.
- Save defaults only after the settings match a repeat job.
- Review the final export before reusing the workflow for a batch of similar files.
After downloading the result, open it once before using it in a client send, upload form, website, or archive. This final check catches format support issues, unexpected file size changes, missing characters, clipped media, or page-order mistakes while the original file is still available.
If the output will be reused, note the settings that produced it. That makes the next export easier to repeat and reduces guesswork when another file needs the same treatment.
