HighLevel Updates: New Features for August 3-7, 2026
The first week of August 2026 brought one of HighLevel's busiest release cycles in months. Agencies got a private beta for running two white label brands from one account, AskAI learned to build ad campaigns, and Voice AI picked up ready-made agent templates. Here is what shipped between August 3 and August 7, and what it means in practice.
Multi-Brand White Labeling Enters Private Beta
HighLevel began rolling out SaaS Multi-Brands, which lets a single agency account operate two fully independent brands. Each brand gets its own name, logo, white label domain, theme, custom code, and legal pages, and can be mapped to specific sub-accounts or assigned through SaaS plan categories.
The feature is available in private beta for an initial group of roughly 20 to 30 agencies, with a public beta expected within two to three weeks. It requires the $497 Pro plan (see current GoHighLevel pricing tiers). The payoff: serving two niches under separate identities without maintaining two agency accounts.
AskAI Now Handles Ads and Media Storage
HighLevel's conversational assistant, AskAI, gained two significant skill sets this week. First, Ad Manager functions are now available through chat. Users can describe a campaign in plain language and AskAI drafts it, covering Meta lead generation, traffic, engagement, and sales objectives plus Google Search and Demand Gen. It can also edit campaigns, build lookalike and Customer Match audiences, and pull performance metrics. LinkedIn Ads support is temporarily paused, and an ad strategy sub-agent is planned for a later phase.
Second, AskAI can now manage the media library. It can organize files and folders, report storage usage, and work with connected Google Drive and Canva accounts, including creating and exporting Canva designs. Deletions go to trash only, and write actions require approval. For a small team, this turns two click-heavy areas into quick conversational tasks.
Workflow AI: Instant Explanations and Version History
Two workflow updates target a common agency pain point, inherited automations that nobody remembers building. Any workflow imported through a snapshot now shows an Explain This Workflow pill that opens the AI Assistant with a breakdown of its triggers, actions, and branching logic. Users can then ask questions or have the AI Builder make edits.
Separately, the Workflow AI Builder now records every AI-generated iteration as a card in the chat thread. Any earlier version can be restored with one click, restores are non-destructive in both directions, and everything syncs with the unified version history tab. For agencies selling snapshots, this means faster onboarding and a safety net that makes AI edits essentially risk free.
Voice AI: Prebuilt Agent Templates and Prompt Optimization
The Voice AI Flow Builder now offers five pre-configured agent templates: business FAQ assistant, front desk receptionist, lead qualification, post-call automation, and SMS follow-up. Each loads with a phone-optimized prompt and the relevant voice actions already wired in, and setup notifications flag missing fields before test calls and deployment unlock. A new Update Tag action lets agents tag contacts by call outcome, turning results into CRM data that can trigger workflows and build Smart Lists.
A companion Labs feature, the Trial Call Prompt Optimizer, lets users pick a completed test call, generate fresh test scenarios from it, score prompt variations, and apply the winner back to the agent. These changes cut the path to a deployable voice agent from hours to minutes, which matters when voice agents are billable.
Super Agents: Custom MCP Servers, Parallel Chats, and a New Trigger Picker
Super Agents received a cluster of upgrades. They can now connect to any custom MCP server by entering a name and URL, with optional credentials and per-agent tool selection, opening integrations beyond the default app catalog. Chat now supports up to 10 parallel conversations, each with independent history and an Activity tab for monitoring, while tasks keep running in the background. The interface also gained rich media cards and a separate reasoning panel.
Trigger setup was rebuilt as a searchable side panel with category browsing, keyboard navigation, and in-panel configuration that prevents half-finished triggers from being saved. Custom MCP support alone is notable for agencies deploying AI employees, since agents can now act on tools the platform never shipped connectors for.
Funnels, Events, and Page-Level Control
Funnels and websites gained single page unpublish. Individual pages can now be taken offline without touching the domain, with a built-in choice of a 404, a redirect to another page, or an external URL, plus an audit trail of who changed what. This fixes the classic mistake of disconnecting a whole domain to hide one seasonal offer, and the redirect step protects SEO equity. It is the kind of page management depth worth weighing in any HighLevel versus ClickFunnels comparison.
Events also gained an embed code so public event pages can live inside funnels, websites, or external sites, keeping registration on your own domain, plus a live custom CSS editor with click-to-select elements. Page builder video elements now accept YouTube Shorts URLs directly.
Billing and Sales Operations Upgrades
Agencies reselling AI can now rebill Conversation AI and Voice AI at a fixed rate per unit, for example $0.50 per message, instead of only a markup on token-based costs. The model is chosen per product and per sub-account, and markup billing remains available. This makes AI far easier to sell, since clients get a predictable line item while the agency manages the margin.
Documents and contracts templates now support up to six signer roles with per-role fillable fields, and workflows populate and route all signers automatically, a fit for real estate and contracting. The abandoned checkouts page was redesigned with CSV export, search and filters, and shareable recovery links, giving e-commerce clients a faster path to recovered revenue.
Smaller Improvements Worth Noting
- WordPress hosting: a new file manager handles browsing, editing, uploads, and permissions, and AI Pages now support in-platform editing of most text and image elements, synced to Elementor.
- WhatsApp usernames: new contacts who message via a WhatsApp username are captured with their username and business-scoped ID as Meta's username beta rolls out by region.
- Phone system: the web dialer gained audio device settings, including ringing two devices at once, and callers in 37 countries now hear their local ringback tone.
- Communities: admins can reorder, rename, and disable community tabs.
- Prospecting: audit reports now detect LeadConnector AI Studio sites, and audits can be skipped at prospect creation and generated later.
- QR business cards: refreshed designs, color controls, custom link icons, and CRM-connected lead capture forms.
- Email: Email AI now generates and preserves Spintax syntax for send-time content variation.
- In Labs: Google Business Profile post sync for Social Planner, a scheduled export center for agency wallet transactions, and Slack plus TikTok Lead Ads migrations to the marketplace framework.
- Coming soon: WhatsApp flows built from HighLevel forms and a new funnel flow screen.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who can use SaaS Multi-Brands right now?
Only a private beta cohort of roughly 20 to 30 agencies on the $497 Pro plan. HighLevel plans a public beta within two to three weeks of the initial rollout.
Does AskAI publish ad campaigns on its own?
No. Campaigns stay in draft until the user explicitly approves publishing. Destructive actions like deleting campaigns require confirmation, and existing Ad Manager permissions still apply.
What is the difference between fixed-rate and markup rebilling for AI?
Markup rebilling multiplies the agency's own token-based cost, so client bills vary with usage. Fixed-rate rebilling charges a flat amount per unit regardless of token cost, and agencies can switch between the two models.
