🚀 This release levels up both data clarity and assessment workflows, giving you sharper insights and more control over how you explore behaviour trends.
📈 Combined behaviour score – A new trend line on OASMNR and SASBA charts that multiplies frequency × severity, giving you a single, powerful view of change over time (and still easy to break down for deeper analysis).
📝 Behaviour descriptions in assessments – OASMNR and SASBA entries now support rich behaviour descriptions, adding nuance and clarity beyond the raw scores.
📅 Filter assessments by date range – Zero in on exactly the timeframe you need with new flexible filtering on the assessment list.
🤖 AI Summariser (BETA) upgrades – Improved performance and accuracy make summaries faster, clearer, and more reliable.
📊 Refined ABC timeseries – “Weighted” has been removed for a truer representation of the data.

📈 This release brings a number of visual and functional upgrades to the patient profile, helping you work more clearly and efficiently across your assessments.
🖥️ Full-width graphs on larger screens - The behaviour over time charts now make full use of your screen - giving you more space to explore the data, especially on desktop and widescreen monitors.
📇 New patient metadata card - All key patient info - name, DOB, NHS ID, ward, tags, creation date - is now grouped in a single card at the top of the profile. Easier to read, quicker to edit.
🥧 Spread of severity (ABC and ABS) - Quickly understand the breakdown of behaviour type and severity with new visual pie charts now added to both the ABC and ABS frameworks.
🐛 Hotfix for graph exports - A quick fix to address a display issue affecting some exported graphs - everything should now render as expected.
We will be taking a break from feature development for the next few weeks as we turn our attention to some work behind the scenes - designed to improve how Melo works and scales for the future. Watch this space for more updates soon!
