September 2026
✓ Added
  • Firestore Security Rules — server-side enforcement of admin and client access, with immutable audit logging collection ready
  • Storage Security Rules — file upload/download access control, ready to activate when Cloud Storage is enabled
  • Public Architecture page — full engineering stack documented with links to official documentation
  • Public Changelog page — this page, for transparent release tracking
  • Skip-to-content links — WCAG 2.1 Level A compliance on all site pages
  • Organization schema (JSON-LD) — structured data for search engines and AI systems

◆ Changed
  • Admin Dashboard — now shows the full portfolio of projects across all users, not just the admin's own

Where we're going

Three horizons. No false precision. Each item is customer value, not internal tasks.

Now

In Progress

Currently being built or shipped this quarter.

  • 📄 Public Architecture page Full engineering stack documented for technical partners
  • 📋 Public Changelog page Every release documented for transparency and due diligence
  • 💳 SaaS pricing tiers Basic / Professional / Enterprise with white-labeling for the top tier
Later

Planned, Not Committed

Strategic direction. Activating based on customer demand.

  • 🏢 Multi-tenancy Each client organisation gets its own isolated workspace
  • 🎨 White-label configuration Engineering firms run the portal under their own brand
  • 🔌 Enterprise API access REST/GraphQL endpoints for ERP module integration
  • 📱 iOS AI platform Native mobile app with push notifications
  • 🌍 Regional deployments Data residency options for regulated enterprise clients

A note on timelines. We don't publish dates on roadmap items. Priorities shift as customer needs evolve, and publishing fixed dates creates false precision that helps no one. What matters is that each item unlocks real customer value — and we ship as fast as that allows.

Something on the roadmap you need sooner?

If an upcoming item is blocking a decision you're trying to make, we'd like to hear about it. Customer demand is the strongest signal for what we build next.
