We’re excited to announce the release of Higson LTS 4.2, bringing powerful new capabilities and major improvements in AI integration, workflow automation, and performance. Here are the key highlights:

• Introduced AI Integration - Higson now supports models in the Open Neural Network Exchange (ONNX) format. This integration enables seamless execution of machine learning models directly within business rules, ensuring faster inference, full auditability, and no need for external ML services.
• Added Flows - A brand-new feature for visual process orchestration. Flows allow users to design, monitor, and optimize decision and process flows within Higson Studio, making complex business logic easier to visualize and maintain.
• Refactor of roles & grants - Refactoring roles and permissions simplifies user access configuration, improves visibility of dependencies, and speeds up security configuration.
• Enhanced Studio performance - Significant improvements to Higson Studio’s data handling deliver a smoother user experience.
• Refined Light Mode - The light theme has been visually refined for better contrast, readability, and overall usability. The updated color palette improves focus during long work sessions and provides a more comfortable experience in bright environments.
• Security and compliance updates - Updated libraries enhance the overall security posture of the system.
