AI-Powered Ticket Topic Identification Enhances Support

HubSpot has introduced an AI-powered feature to automatically identify ticket topics, enhancing support capabilities. With this new functionality, the ticket property category will be automatically populated using AI, providing support leaders with essential insights. This feature helps in analyzing ticket topics to identify major issues like outages or bugs, and understand frequently discussed topics with long resolution times or poor feedback scores. This allows for better planning of representative training or coaching. Additionally, it identifies gaps in knowledge-based articles, aiding in reducing future support ticket volumes. This feature is available for service enterprise users and requires manual activation.

New Site Speed Dashboard Provides Real-Time Performance Data

HubSpot's new Site Speed Dashboard is a game-changer for evaluating website performance. This dashboard offers real user data to assess how quickly a website loads for visitors. By using real user data, the dashboard evaluates performance against key web vitals metrics. Users can optimize load times and improve user experience by identifying which pages are slow, tracking site performance over time, and understanding how visitors on different devices experience the site. This feature is available across all content hub tiers, including free.

Automated Inactive User Deactivation Strengthens Security

HubSpot now offers automated inactive user deactivation, a feature aimed at enhancing security. This automation removes inactive users who have not logged into HubSpot for over 90 days on a monthly basis. Inactive user accounts pose significant security risks as they can be vulnerable to account takeovers and data breaches. Manual management of inactive users can be time-consuming and inefficient. This feature automates the deactivation process, reducing the risk of unauthorized access and strengthening account security. Users can minimize security risks, save time, and improve user management with this automated feature.

Content Remix Introduces Free Form Prompting

Content Remix in HubSpot now includes Free Form Prompting, a powerful addition that offers complete creative control. This new node type allows users to write custom instructions to Remix's AI, similar to conversational AI tools. With Free Form Prompting, users can transform content with specific instructions, such as turning a blog post into a press release for financial professionals or summarizing only the sustainability section from a white paper. This feature enables the creation of custom content types based on standard transformations and allows for refining content before repurposing it across marketing channels.

Key Pair Authentication for Snowflake Data Ingestion

HubSpot has introduced Key Pair Authentication for Snowflake Data Ingestion, providing a more secure alternative to single-factor username/password authentication. Snowflake will soon require this method as it plans to block single-factor authentication methods. Key Pair Authentication ensures a secure, easy, and fast connection between HubSpot and Snowflake. This feature is essential for keeping customer data secure, as traditional username/password authentication isn't inherently unsafe but can be vulnerable. Snowflake will block single-factor authentication beginning in November 2025, and HubSpot is offering customers the opportunity to switch over starting today.

Unified View of E-Commerce Data with Shopify Integration

For Shopify data sync integration users, HubSpot now offers a new CRM middle panel card that provides a unified view of key metrics. This includes total orders, average order value, and product views, along with a sales graph with filters and an AI insights summary. Previously, Shopify customers syncing data into HubSpot lacked a unified view of key metrics, leading to inefficiencies and delayed insights. The new CRM card eliminates these pain points by providing a comprehensive view of data directly within the contact card. The visual sales graph and customizable filters enable users to identify trends and patterns in customer purchasing behavior quickly, providing instant customer insights.

Community Discussions and Ecosystem Insights

The HubSpot morning show hosts Chris Carlin, Casey Hawkins, and George B. Thomas provided valuable insights into these updates. They discussed the significance of each feature and how it enhances the overall user experience. The hosts emphasized the importance of leveraging these new tools to optimize performance, strengthen security, and improve customer support. They also highlighted the need for users to stay updated with the latest features and make the most of the platform's capabilities.

Key Takeaways and Next Steps

HubSpot's latest updates bring a range of new features designed to enhance user experience, security, and support capabilities. The AI-powered ticket topic identification, site speed dashboard, automated inactive user deactivation, and free form prompting in Content Remix are significant additions that offer valuable benefits. Users are encouraged to explore these new features, activate them as needed, and integrate them into their workflows to maximize their HubSpot experience. For further learning and detailed implementation guidance, users can refer to HubSpot's official resources and community discussions.
