In case you missed it, an [open-source personal AI assistant](http://openclaw.ai/) went viral this week. It runs on your own machine and you can connect it to WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, or whatever chat app you already use.
We raised $100M! [Railway just closed a Series B](https://blog.railway.com/p/series-b), and we couldn't be more excited about what's ahead. We'll get into what that means below. Of course, just because we’re doing a big announcement, doesn’t mean that the shipping stops.
Last week we wrapped our planning for Q1 2026, so we're officially back to our regularly scheduled programming. This week: a major security upgrade for Pro workspaces, a structural overhaul of the CLI, Object Storage now available in Singapore, smoother database workflows in the dashboard, and Editable Canvas Arrows graduating to GA. Let's get into it!
The new year's off to a strong start. This was our planning week, but we couldn't help ourselves and a lot still shipped. Thank you to everyone who dropped ideas in our [what should we ship in 2026 thread](https://station.railway.com/feedback/feedback-what-should-we-ship-in-2026-9a878de8). The suggestions keep rolling in, and we're reading every single one.
Welcome to 2026! 🎉 The Railway team is slowly emerging from our winter break, coffee in hand, ready to tackle a brand new year. Hope you got some rest, we certainly did. Next week, we're kicking off our 2026 planning, and we want *you* to help shape what we build.
