A front page that shows instead of tells
The portail.cc front page now shows the product instead of describing it. Right under the headline, a short chat plays out in one thread: GPT-5.5 drafts a launch tweet, Claude rewrites it calmer, and Gemini translates it to French. Nobody re-explains anything between turns, which is the whole point of Portail, and now you can see it in about ten seconds instead of reading three sections to get there. The page also asks for less. There is one button at the top, Start free, with the plan spelled out underneath: free plan, no card, every model. On phones, where the floating model logos are hidden, the top of the page used to be a headline on an empty screen. Now the chat sits right under it. We also removed the comparison table that lined Portail up against Typing Mind, T3.chat and Poe. A grid of checkmarks we wrote about ourselves was never the most convincing part of the page, and the demo makes the same case better.

The hero plays a looping chat where GPT-5.5, Claude and Gemini answer in the same thread, with a typing indicator each time the model changes. It pauses when it scrolls off screen, and shows the whole conversation at once if your device asks for reduced motion.
One call to action in the hero instead of two, and the line under it now reads: Free plan. No card. Every model.
In the Why section, Start free comes first and Book a demo moves to a secondary button.
The comparison section and its Comparison link in the navigation are gone.
All new copy ships in English and Russian.
Portail v2.4.5 shipped on 2026-10-03 as a patch release focused on a front page that shows instead of tells. The portail.cc front page now shows the product instead of describing it. Right under the headline, a short chat plays out in one thread: GPT-5.5 drafts a launch tweet, Claude rewrites it calmer, and Gemini translates it to French. Nobody re-explains anything between turns, which is the whole point of Portail, and now you can see it in about ten seconds instead of reading three sections to get there. The page also asks for less. There is one button at the top, Start free, with the plan spelled out underneath: free plan, no card, every model. On phones, where the floating model logos are hidden, the top of the page used to be a headline on an empty screen. Now the chat sits right under it. We also removed the comparison table that lined Portail up against Typing Mind, T3.chat and Poe. A grid of checkmarks we wrote about ourselves was never the most convincing part of the page, and the demo makes the same case better. The work is recorded here because small releases are still product history. They change how people sign in, read responses, pay for access, share conversations, open files, or trust the system when something goes wrong.
The main changes were direct: the hero plays a looping chat where gpt-5.5, claude and gemini answer in the same thread, with a typing indicator each time the model changes. it pauses when it scrolls off screen, and shows the whole conversation at once if your device asks for reduced motion, one call to action in the hero instead of two, and the line under it now reads: free plan. no card. every model, in the why section, start free comes first and book a demo moves to a secondary button, the comparison section and its comparison link in the navigation are gone, and all new copy ships in english and russian. That list is intentionally plain. It names what changed without turning the release into theatre. When a release fixes a build, a redirect, a storage path, or a UI edge case, the value is often that users stop noticing the problem. The archive keeps that invisible work visible enough for future debugging and for anyone checking whether Portail has cared about the details over time.
This version also fits into the wider Portail contract. One account, one chat history, and one model picker only work if the smaller pieces keep their promises. Authentication has to fail clearly. Billing has to count honestly. Uploads have to arrive in a form models can read. Admin tools have to show the operator what happened instead of hiding it behind a blank screen. v2.4.5 moved that contract forward in its own narrow lane.
The screenshots attached to this entry show the public release record as it now appears on portail.cc. For older releases, this archive was rebuilt from the git history, package version changes, release modal text, and commit subjects. That means the page is honest about its source: it documents the shipped change and preserves the record going forward, even when the exact old production screen cannot be recreated from a single saved image.
The practical result is simple. Someone landing on this page can see the version number, date, release tier, headline, highlights, and a real rendered screenshot of the archive page. Search engines can index the post through the canonical URL, sitemap entry, and structured data. Future releases now have a standard to meet before deploy, so the history should get cleaner from here instead of fuzzier.
