The redesigned Pickaxe is now available to all users! If you want to use it, you can visit Pickaxe.co and migrate your account over. Here’s a video to walk you through the new redesign 
What’s New?
The new Pickaxe has some cool new changes. The biggest difference is that Studios are now workspaces. They still have a website and monetization/authentication, but in addition they are ways to group Pickaxes together, share API keys, actions, documents, etc. Some specific changes include:
- Global API keys for Studios
- Global Knowledge Bases for Studios
- User Memories
- Collaboration. Pro customers can invite users to share their studio with them
- Version History (see all edits of your old Pickaxe)
- Better Embeds (add limits, custom CTAs, custom CTA links)
- Annual Payments for studio end-users
- Improved Product System for Studios
- Ability to hide products from studio users
- Ability to not collect end-user responses (important for many use cases!)
- And much more!
We have a bunch of other cool changes we’ll be pushing to redesign in the coming weeks.
How do I use it?
If you want to use the redesigned Pickaxe, simply visit Pickaxe.co and click the migrate the button. This will move your account over to the new system. Migrating is literally as simple as clicking a button, but if you’re unsure you can watch this migration walkthrough video.
Migration is totally optional right now! So no rush if you’re familiar with all the buttons on the old version and want to stay.

Why are Anthropic 3.5 and 3.7 now part of the Pro plan and limited to us? We could use them before. We are on the lifetime plan.

My advice to everyone is to wait still. There are a lot of bugs that have caused many of my pickaxes to basically stop working or become worthless.
- the payment system is broken for me
- webpages cannot be refreshed ever

Some questions:
- Does this allow embedded pickaxes to retain user memory now (based on IP or cookies) without the person being logged into the studio directly?
- Or does this allow us to embed full studios in our members portals elsewhere?
- Or allow us to automate adding and removing users?
Still trying to get people to be able to have proper access to this as PART of another product they purchase elsewhere.
If you’re experiencing any bugs, please send them to info@pickaxeproject.com

This is a change on the old platform as well. Those particular models were too expensive to offer to the Gold tier so we’ve moved them to the higher tier. We were racking up unsustainable costs with the way some accounts were using them.
This too is the major issue that I’m facing. This isn’t a bug, but a feature removal in the new version.
Mike, totally understand the cost issue, but we need to be able to bring our own keys, then there will be no cost to you and our service to clients won’t be interrupted. This is impacting my deliverables to my clients in a big way, and I’m in a very difficult situation now. Please allow me to bring my own keys.

The answer to your first two questions is “No”.
You cannot automate adding new users right now, but that is someting we will allow in the new version soon.
Hi Mike,
I don’t understand, if I look at Pricing \ Anthropic
I see that Opus (3.0) is the most expensive one, followed by Sonnet (3.7) and that Haiku (3.5) is the cheapest one. But you blocked 3.5 and 3.7. It seems like its better to block block 3.0 and open up 3.5, or am I missing something?

I think it’s coming back soon. @admin_mike can confirm
FYI the payment system (monetization) looks like it has been fixed.

It will be making a return! But it’s not currently available in the new system. It’ll be back (and MUCH improved) sometime next week. (The auto AI builder)
