Cubewise Pulse 8.0 and Arc 6.0 give you an AI assistant across your DevOps cycle. With a full MCP and SDKs, this release gives you AI capability grounded in your environment and governed by your permissions.

Who this is for: TM1 developers & TM1 admin
2026-Q3 Release: Cubewise Pulse 8.0 and Cubewise Arc 6.0

Your organisation trusts you to keep TM1 stable, secure and accurate. AI in your environment must maintain that reliability. This Cubewise Software release is engineered for it:

• You turn on AI capability when you need it
• AI works within your security model, with your permissions, seeing data only when you choose
• You connect the AI tools your organisation already approves using your subscription and API key

Here’s what it gives you at each stage of the lifecycle:

Cubewise Arc is the TM1 development environment. In 6.0 its assistant works alongside you, in your model.

• Builds with you: model and edit dimensions, cubes, processes and views from the chat, based on the context, page and objects you have open. You control access in each session to chat, read, or change
• Your whole pipeline: through MCP you can call Pulse, TM1 and Slice from the chat, so one conversation can cover writing a process and seeing how it runs
• Analyse in context: open a view, tick Data, and ask about the numbers in front of you — the assistant reads the live values, so questions and answers happen where you work. A context bar shows exactly what is sent — drill into the full packet any time. You opt in per view, and as admin you centrally manage restrictions for sensitive data such as payroll, at cube, dimension or element level.

Test Hub, in Cubewise Arc+, generates unit tests for your rules and TI processes. In 6.0, AI completes them.

• Ready-to-run tests: generated tests arrive complete, with set-up data, assertions and cleanup
• More coverage: AI test generation lets you test rules and TI processes more comprehensively, for more accurate, higher-quality releases into production
• Audit-ready record: results export to PDF or CSV

Cubewise Pulse manages promotion between your TM1 environments. 8.0 adds two ways to run it beyond the UI.

• Migrate by conversation: build, review, approve and execute a package in one chat with your assistant
• Or by code: the new JavaScript and Python SDKs covers migrations, alerts, users and environments — repeatable, deterministic processes you control
• Attribute every action: per-user API keys mean you always know whose access did what

Cubewise Pulse watches every TM1 instance you run. In 8.0 you can ask it questions directly – a live view of your whole landscape, on demand.

• Ask your environments: “how did each run over the weekend?” Answers come from live status, alerts and history, including your real licence position against entitlement
• Trace every change: follow any change from commit to production including what, who and the difference. Search everywhere: “find every processes that write to the Sales cube”
• See what any user sees: impersonation shows you their exact view, and you make the fix in the same conversation

Cubewise Pulse 8.0 speaks the Model Context Protocol — the open standard AI assistants use to connect to external systems.

• Your tools, your data: work with all your TM1 models and environments from Claude, Cursor, VS Code or any MCP client — you ask in plain language, it calls the right Pulse functions and answers with your own data
• One-minute setup: generate a personal API key and Pulse produces the config for your client
• Same permissions everywhere: each tool checks the same group access as its web equivalent, and your admins choose which tools are available site-wide

Accelerate with AI, engineered to the standard your production environment demands.

Some AI features ship as Preview – feature-level detail in the release notes.
