What

Adds a customer-facing AI Transport roadmap page (AIT-1029) to give readers an indication of where the product is going next and inviting feedback.

  • New page src/pages/docs/ai-transport/roadmap.mdx covering three horizons — Now, Next, Future — as capability tables.
  • "Now" capabilities link to their existing feature/concept pages (all 15 links verified to resolve).
  • Opens with a short framing line inviting readers to contact Ably to influence the roadmap.
  • Adds a Roadmap entry to the AI Transport navigation (src/data/nav/aitransport.ts), after the API reference and before the Internals.

Add a customer-facing AI Transport roadmap page covering three horizons
(Now, Next, Future) as capability tables, with a pointer to contact Ably
to influence direction. Link Now capabilities to their feature pages.

Add a Roadmap entry to the AI Transport navigation.

Double "roadmap" won't read quite right here (where we have the section heading and page heading matching. Tempted to say to put this under the 'Production' heading or even at the bottom of 'Features'.


This page shows where AI Transport is heading. The roadmap is dynamic and updated based on the feedback received from customers. The fastest way to influence this roadmap is to [contact Ably](https://ably.com/contact), explaining what you are trying to build and where AI Transport can help you.

I think if we have a 'now' it should be what we're building currently rather than what we've already released.

If we want to show what we've alread delivered I'd put it under a 'Delivered' heading or something and see if we can visually differentiate later (strikethrough would be a bit horrible).

I don't think we should use 'AIT' anywhere.

Worth noting this is possible outside of the SDK for now?

| More provider codecs | Native integrations for OpenAI and Anthropic, so more of the ecosystem is a drop-in. |

Is the title better here something like 'more native integrations' or 'increased ecosystem support'.
