Stiple Labs Version 25.10

A New Era of Minimalism and Clarity

Harshil Thakkar7 min readChangelog

We're excited to introduce Stiple Labs v25.10, a transformative release that reimagines our entire design philosophy. Moving away from flashy, attention-grabbing elements, we've embraced ultra minimalism and simplicity. Every aspect of the platform has been refined to create a more sophisticated, focused experience that puts your work front and center.

Design System Overhaul

This release marks a fundamental shift in how Stiple Labs looks and feels. We've rebuilt our design system from the ground up with a focus on clarity, refinement, and purpose.

Ultra Minimalism Takes Center Stage

We've moved away from neon colors and innovative visual effects in favor of a cleaner, more timeless aesthetic. The new design philosophy prioritizes content over chrome, ensuring that your projects and data remain the primary focus.

Refined Typography Throughout

Every piece of text has been carefully reconsidered. We've implemented smaller, sharper text with precisely adjusted font weights across the entire platform. The result is a more sophisticated reading experience that feels polished and professional.

Enhanced Visual Hierarchy

Cards throughout the application now feature distinct background colors instead of relying solely on borders. This creates stronger visual hierarchy and improves visibility, making it easier to scan and navigate the interface at a glance.

Auto-Generated Profile Avatars

Say goodbye to generic profile pictures. Every user now gets a beautifully generated avatar with color-coded initials and gradient backgrounds. These avatars add personality while maintaining consistency across the platform.

Subtle, Static Design Elements

We've replaced animated gradients and moving elements with static, subtle styling. Search bars, borders, and interactive elements now use simple, elegant borders that don't compete for your attention. The interface feels calmer and more focused.

New Landing Page

Our landing page has been completely reimagined to better communicate what Stiple Labs is all about.

Problem-Focused Messaging

We've shifted from showcasing features to highlighting the problems we solve. The new messaging puts your needs first, explaining how Stiple Labs helps you work with geospatial data more effectively.

Repositioned as "The Geospatial Data Platform"

Our new tagline better reflects what we do. Instead of positioning ourselves as just a "Smart Point Cloud Platform," we now present Stiple Labs as a comprehensive geospatial data solution.

Cleaner, Purpose-Driven Design

The flashy "wow factor" elements are gone. In their place is a cleaner, simpler design that aligns with our new minimalist philosophy. Every element serves a purpose, and nothing is there just to impress.

New FAQ Section

We've added a comprehensive Frequently Asked Questions section to help you quickly find answers to common questions about our platform, services, and features.

Home Screen Reimagined

Your home screen has been streamlined to help you get to work faster.

Projects Take Center Stage

We've removed the "Latest Files" section entirely, allowing you to focus exclusively on your most recent projects. Your home screen now displays 12 latest projects, up from 8, giving you better visibility into your recent work.

Smarter Project Sorting

Projects are now sorted by date modified instead of date created. This means the projects you're actively working on will always appear at the top, making it easier to pick up where you left off.

Simplified Search Experience

The search bar has been redesigned with a simple, static border instead of the animated gradient. It's still prominent and easy to use, just quieter and more refined.

Enhanced Sidebar

The navigation sidebar now includes a dedicated "Others" section grouping Help & Support and Trash. We've also added a storage usage indicator showing how much of your available space you're using.

Richer Project Information

Project cards now display more useful information at a glance. Each card shows the project name, location, total size, number of files, number of team members, and when it was last updated. We've removed the action buttons to keep the interface clean and uncluttered.

Projects Page Evolution

What was previously called "All Projects" is now simply "Projects," and it's been significantly improved.

Reclaimed Screen Space

We've removed the large greeting message and oversized search bar that previously occupied half the screen. This gives you much more room to see your projects, with over 20 projects now visible at once compared to just 8 in the previous version.

New Filtering System

Three new filter tabs let you quickly view All projects, just your projects (Mine), or projects that have been Shared with you. Switch between views instantly without any additional clicks.

Dynamic Project Count

The page heading now displays a count that dynamically updates based on your selected filter. See at a glance how many total projects you have, how many are yours, or how many have been shared with you.

List View Added

In addition to Grid and Map views, you can now view your projects as a List. Choose the view that works best for your workflow, with easy toggle buttons in the top-right corner.

The search functionality is now built directly into a compact toolbar, keeping it accessible without dominating the interface.

Project Workspace Refinements

The project workspace maintains its card-based layout while receiving significant visual refinements.

Refined Visual Design

Every card in the project workspace has been updated to match our new design philosophy. The file upload card now uses a distinct background color to draw focus away when you're not actively uploading, keeping your attention on the files you're working with.

Improved File List Visibility

While checkboxes and sorting have always been available in the file list, we've significantly improved their visibility. It's now clearer than ever which files are selected and how your list is sorted.

Updated Project Info and Members Cards

The project information and team members cards maintain the same functionality you're familiar with, but with refined aesthetics that match the rest of the platform. Member avatars now use our new auto-generated system, and spacing has been improved throughout.

User Profile Updates

Your profile screen has been redesigned for better clarity and organization.

Quick Access to Billing

A new settings icon provides quick access to the billing portal, where you can manage your billing information, payment methods, and subscription details all in one place.

Clearer Storage Visualization

Storage usage is now displayed with a percentage indicator showing exactly how much of your storage limit you're using. The circular progress indicator has been redesigned to be more visually appealing and easier to understand at a glance.

Separated Subscription Details

Subscription information now lives in its own dedicated card below the storage section. This separation creates a clearer information hierarchy, making it easier to find the specific details you're looking for.

Consistent Avatar System

Your profile now uses the same auto-generated avatar system seen throughout the platform, with gradient backgrounds and color-coded initials.

Self-Hosted Authentication

We've migrated from our third-party authentication provider to our own self-hosted authentication system.

Improved Authentication Flow

The new authentication system provides a more consistent design that matches the rest of the application. Login and signup flows now feel like a natural part of Stiple Labs, rather than a separate experience.

Enhanced Security and Privacy

By hosting our own authentication system, we have greater control over your data and can ensure better security practices. Your authentication data now stays within our infrastructure, giving you improved privacy and peace of mind.

Seamless Integration

The new system integrates more deeply with the platform, providing a foundation for future authentication features and improvements while maintaining the reliability you expect.

Bug Fixes and Performance Improvements

In addition to all the visible changes, we've addressed various bugs and made performance improvements throughout the platform to ensure a smoother, more reliable experience.


We believe these changes represent a significant step forward for Stiple Labs. The new design system creates a more focused, sophisticated experience that helps you work more efficiently. We're excited to hear what you think about the new direction.
