Hi there,

|
|
Below is a short overview of what’s new in Clerk over the past couple of weeks. We've been busy, and we're excited to share a few updates with you!

Upgraded Clerk SDKs: Core 3
|
|
Core 3 is a big upgrade to Clerk’s SDKs, focused on giving you more control without adding complexity. It introduces better customization, a visual theme editor, and smoother, more flexible setup, especially for modern and agent-driven workflows.

Under the hood, it’s also faster and lighter, with improved performance and better support for React’s latest patterns. Read more →

Organization activity report
|
|
Get a clear view of what’s happening across organizations in your apps with a dedicated activity report. It shows daily member engagement levels for each org, helping you understand how teams are using your product.

Faster visibility means fewer surprises and tighter operational control. Read more →

Create and manage enterprise connections through Clerk's API

You can now create and manage enterprise connections programmatically through Clerk’s API. This gives you more control over provisioning and updates, reduces manual configuration, and helps keep environments consistent. Ship changes faster and keep enterprise access aligned with your workflows. Read more →

Native React Native components and Google Sign-In
|
|
We’ve introduced native React Native components along with Google Sign-In support, built on Core 3.

|
|
|
This brings smoother mobile auth experiences with less custom glue code and a more consistent developer surface. You get a cleaner integration path and modern building blocks for mobile-first apps. Read more →

X social connection improvements

Sign in with X just got better. We streamlined the connection to improve reliability and reduce setup friction. Your users get a smoother path into your app, and you spend less time troubleshooting social auth. Read more →

Chrome Extension JavaScript SDK support
|
Clerk’s JavaScript SDK now supports Chrome Extensions, with a quickstart to get up and running. Use familiar primitives and prebuilt components to add authentication directly to your extension. No custom auth flows required. Read more →

|
Organization retention report
|
|
Track how organizations stay active over time with a dedicated retention report. It helps you understand cohort patterns, spot drop-offs, and measure the impact of product changes.

JWT format support for M2M tokens
|
Clerk now supports JWT format for M2M tokens, giving you a faster, more flexible way to authenticate service-to-service requests. JWTs can be verified locally, which means there's no network call required. This helps make machine auth more efficient as your system scales. Read more →

Clerk Community: From zero to agent, built with Clerk
|
At Zero to Agent NYC, the goal was simple: ship fast. One of the winning teams, Chattermint, used Clerk to handle authentication from day one. It’s a good reminder that even when you’re building at agent-speed, the fundamentals still matter (and they shouldn’t slow you down). Shoutout to Clerk's own Akriti Keswani for being there with teams and supporting them throughout the weekend.
