Tulip Library Release Notes – January 2026
"Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end."
—Seneca
New year, fresh start. While everyone's already forgotten their resolutions (told you February would come fast), we're here with something that'll actually stick: Table Kits. A brand new type of Library content designed to give you a running start.
🌟 Highlights
This month we're introducing six Table Kits across production, quality, inventory, and traceability. These aren't apps or connectors. They're pre-built data foundations. Ready-to-use tables, already linked and structured, so you can skip the setup and start building right away.
Think of them as the groundwork you'd normally spend hours creating. Now you don't have to (you're welcome 😉).
Whether you're piloting something new or scaling up existing operations, these kits give you standardized structures to build on. Less reinventing the wheel. More time for the stuff that matters.
We also shipped a handy new utility app to help you understand exactly what you're importing before you commit. No more surprises.
