Anthropic is rolling out a comprehensive analytics dashboard for its Claude Code AI programming assistant. The new dashboard will provide engineering managers with detailed metrics on how their teams use Claude Code, including lines of code accepted, suggestion accept rates, total user activity over time, total spend over time, average daily spend for each user, and average daily lines of code accepted for each user. The dashboard will track commits, pull requests, and provide detailed breakdowns of activity by user and cost — data that engineering leaders say is crucial for understanding how AI is changing development workflows. The feature includes role-based access controls, allowing organizations to configure who can view usage data. The system focuses on metadata rather than actual code content, addressing potential privacy concerns about employee surveillance. The platform has seen active user base growth of 300% and run-rate revenue expansion of more than 5.5 times, according to company data. Unlike some competitors that focus primarily on code completion, Claude Code offers what Anthropic calls “agentic” capabilities — the ability to understand entire codebases, make coordinated changes across multiple files, and work directly within existing development workflows.

Noah, a regulated global payments infrastructure provider, and Gnosis, a leader in decentralized financial systems, announced a strategic partnership to power the next chapter of stablecoin adoption through seamless integration of real-world financial infrastructure with onchain tools. Noah Gnosis Stablecoin Integration marks a major step in bridging real-world finance with decentralized ecosystems.

By embedding compliant stablecoin infrastructure, the collaboration allows these users to transact in USD and stablecoins with full regulatory confidence. For users in emerging markets, it unlocks new access to U.S. dollar-denominated accounts and seamless payments to and from the U.S.—making it easier to earn, save, and do business globally without relying on traditional intermediaries.
GENIUS Act for stablecoins passes house on way to being first major U.S. crypto law
The first major crypto regulatory initiative in the U.S. is about to become law after the House of Representatives passed the stablecoin bill known as the GENIUS Act. The approval came directly on the heels of another major legislative accomplishment for the industry, when the House also passed the Clarity Act that would govern the oversight of the digital assets markets in the U.S. The first significant crypto bill is on its way to being signed into law after the U.S. House of Representatives passed stablecoin-regulating legislation known as the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins (GENIUS) Act, which now gets forwarded to President Donald Trump. The landmark legislative achievement for the crypto industry marks a sharp turnaround from recent years in which the sector languished under resistant U.S. regulators and a Congress unable to finish policy efforts. And it follows close behind another major House action to pass the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (known as “CLARITY”) — a bill that will establish a full set of rules over the wider crypto markets. The GENIUS Act passed 308-122. Because it arrived as a Senate bill with a 68-30 approval in that chamber, all it needs now is a presidential signature before it becomes the law of the land. Regulators can then begin establishing regulations for the conduct of stablecoin issuers — a field currently dominated by Tether’s USDT and Circle’s USDC but which has drawn a high level of attention from traditional financial institutions, including Wall Street banks. The legislative process again showed a large number of Democrats joining the Republican majority in favor of tailored regulations for the U.S. crypto industry.
VantageScore 4.0 is coming but much work needs to be done and analysts suggest it would arrive sometime around the summer of 2026
In the days following the announcement that VantageScore 4.0 was suddenly in play for conventional mortgages, FinLocker‘s Brian Vieaux had to burst some bubbles. Most of the 15 to 20 loan officers he spoke to were ecstatic about being able to use the new credit scoring model. Millions of new prospective borrowers could be scored with VantageScore, they said. That’s opportunity in a down market. “I was like, ‘OK, guys, totally agree. If you can wave a magic wand and tomorrow — in your point of sale and your LOS, and the underwriting engines and all the technologies that that talk downstream — this was there and ready, yeah, I think it would open up some interesting opportunities with borrowers. And it will,” Vieaux said. “The other side of it is talking to the owner-operators of these companies, and they’re like, ‘This doesn’t become reality till 2026.’” For about a week, the mortgage industry operated in confusion about what comes next. It wasn’t even clear whether the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) wanted both FICO and VantageScore scores, or if they wanted lenders to choose between the two. FHFA Director Bill Pulte on Tuesday afternoon clarified several key points about Fannie Mae‘s and Freddie Mac‘s embrace of VantageScore, which is collectively owned by the three major credit reporting bureaus — Experian, Equifax and TransUnion. The tri-merge credit report will also remain. Pulte said lenders will be able to choose between FICO Classic, introduced in the late 1980s, and VantageScore 4.0. The GSEs will be working to update their Selling Guide policies, but at the moment they are not currently able to purchase mortgages with VantageScore 4.0 credit scores. The agencies will also need to create a new loan level pricing adjustment (LLPA) matrix before it can purchase loans with VantageScore 4.0 credit scores.

Cross-border payments platform Wise saw year-over-year increases of 24% in cross-border volume and 17% in active customers as it continued to add new partnerships. With these gains made during the first quarter of the company’s fiscal year 2026, Wise’s cross-border volume reached 41.2 billion pounds (about $55.2 billion), and its number of active customers reached 9.8 million. The company’s cross-border take rate declined by 12 bps year over year, from 0.64% to 0.52%, which Wise attributed to a reduction in its average price and an increase in the proportion of higher-volume customers. Wise’s underlying income for the quarter saw a year-over-year increase of 11% on a reported basis and 14% on a constant currency basis, lifting it to 362 million pounds. The medium-term guidance for growth in underlying income is 15% to 20% on a constant currency basis. Highlighting recent moves made by Wise, co-founder and CEO Kristo Käärmann said the company launched Wise Business in the Philippines, continued to add Wise Platform partners, and announced partnerships with Raiffeisen Bank and UniCredit to power instant international transfers for their consumer and business customers in Europe.
Mistral’s AI voice model can listen to and transcribe up to 30 minutes of audio or 40 minutes of audio understanding without switching to a separate mode and offer summarization at less than half the price of comparable APIs
Mistral released an open-sourced voice model that could rival paid voice AI, such as those from ElevenLabs and Hume AI, which the company said bridges the gap between proprietary speech recognition models and the more open, yet error-prone versions. The company said Voxtral “offers state-of-the-art accuracy and native semantic understanding in the open, at less than half the price of comparable APIs.” Voxtral, at a 32K token context, can listen to and transcribe up to 30 minutes of audio or 40 minutes of audio understanding. It offers summarization, meaning the model can answer questions based on the audio content and generate summaries without switching to a separate mode. Users can trigger functions and API calls based on spoken instructions. The model is based on Mistral’s Mistral Small 3.1 and supports multiple languages and can automatically detect languages. Mistral added enterprise features to Voxtral, including private deployment, so that organizations can integrate the model into their own ecosystems. These features also include domain-specific fine-tuning and advanced context and priority access to engineering resources for customers who need help integrating Voxtral into their workflows. Mistral stated that Voxtral outperformed existing voice models, including OpenAI’s Whisper, Gemini 2.5 Flash and Scribe from ElevenLabs. Voxtral presented fewer word errors compared to Whisper, which is currently considered the best automatic speech recognition model available.
