With the recent Telerik and Kendo UI releases, Progress started to shape a new era of developer productivity: AI that behaves less like a tool and more like a teammate. Instead of forcing developers to change their flow to match an AI system, Progress® Telerik® components, Progress® Kendo UI® libraries and Progress® Telerik® Fiddler™ solution brought the first AI tools that bring intelligence directly into your environment, components and patterns. Whether generating full UI layouts, refining code in the moment, debugging network traffic or enabling end-users to trigger smart actions through prompt-driven interfaces, Telerik, Kendo UI and Fiddler move beyond traditional AI integration into the realm of agentic, embedded collaboration.
At its core, this 2025 Q4 release is about giving developers, team leads and enterprises a partner they can trust, AI tools that understand Telerik and Kendo UI inside-out, adapts to their technology stack and meets the standards of enterprise-ready UI application development. It doesn’t ask teams to start from scratch. It simply accelerates what you’re already building.
The flagship innovation of this 2025 Q4 release is the Telerik Agentic UI Generator—a new way to build UI with speed and confidence. Developers can now prompt their way into fully functional pages—complete with layouts, styling, accessibility, needed components and data bindings. It does this from an MCP server that works in any AI-enabled IDE. The Telerik Agentic UI Generator debuts in Progress® Telerik® UI for Blazor, Progress® KendoReact™ and Progress® Kendo UI® for Angular as part of DevCraft Complete or Ultimate subscriptions. The Agentic UI Generator is an evolution of the AI Coding Assistants currently available across all major Telerik and Kendo UI libraries giving developers a full productivity stack.
Beyond development acceleration, the release expands embedded AI capabilities for end-user experience and application performance. New AI components, including an Inline AI Prompt, AI-ready Chat UI and prompt-driven Data Grid, enable natural language interactions that streamline everyday tasks. Additionally, organizations can adopt Microsoft’s latest innovations immediately with day-zero support for .NET 10. The 2025 Q4 release also introduces MCP debugging in Fiddler Everywhere and a new Debugging Assistant.
