# January 2026 - "Mary Elizabeth" - January 2026 Roadmap

The first release of 2026 is called "Mary Elizabeth" after Mary Elizabeth Anderson. Born in February of 1866, she invented the windshield wiper after a trip to NYC during a snowstorm. All of this feels on point as we remove our waitlist and look to the future, but in the midst of a big old snowstorm and cold snap.
