Gumloop now allows users to build and deploy custom nodes using AI, enabling teams to create specific tools without waiting for the company to develop them. This new functionality addresses the need for more niche and complex workflows that existing nodes couldn't fulfill, allowing users to interface with internal endpoints, perform detailed data cleaning, and build new integrations. With the integration of AI into the node builder, users can define the structure of a node and have AI write the necessary code, making the process faster and more efficient. These nodes are reusable and shareable, enhancing collaboration within teams and ensuring security by allowing sensitive API calls without exposing private keys. The development marks a shift towards more customizable and automated workflows, with future plans including public sharing and potential commercialization of custom nodes.
