New features, improvements, fixes and security updates.

Version 2.4

  • New

    Build apps on Vouli IQ with OAuth 2.0

    2026-10-04

    Register an app in the developer console, connect it with the authorization code flow with PKCE, and call the API and the MCP server with an access token instead of a pasted key. An organisation admin approves exactly the scopes shown on the consent screen, in plain words; access tokens last an hour and refresh tokens are replaced on every use. A free developer sandbox serves sample data, so an app can be built and tested without a paid plan, and an app appears in the marketplace catalogue only after a Vouli IQ reviewer approves it.

  • New

    A consent screen that says what an app will be able to do

    2026-10-04

    Before an app connects, an admin sees its name, who publishes it, each permission it asks for in plain words with the ones that change data marked, and which organisation it would act on. Only an admin can approve; anyone can decline. An app that has not been reviewed yet says so, and only the organisation that built it can connect it.

  • New

    See and disconnect the apps connected to your organisation

    2026-10-04

    Settings → Connected apps lists every app an admin approved, what it may do, who approved it and when it was last used. Disconnecting one revokes its tokens at once; uninstalling an app from the marketplace now revokes its connected-app tokens too.

  • New

    Import your risk register, vendor list and KPI actuals from a spreadsheet

    2026-10-03

    Upload a CSV or Excel file, match its columns to the register (suggested from the headings), and see the first rows checked before anything is saved. Every row is validated first; if any row has a problem nothing is imported, and each problem is named by row and column. Rows already in the register are skipped rather than added twice. Cells that start with =, +, - or @ are stored as plain text and never run as formulas. Each register has a template with the exact headings, and every import is recorded in the audit log.

  • New

    Disaster-recovery posture derived from evidence, not asserted

    2026-09-22

    The standby and drill rows on the reliability page are now computed from what has actually been recorded, rather than being fixed text. An owner can record a restore or failover drill with the measured recovery time and data-loss window; a drill cannot be recorded as passed unless both were measured, and a drill nobody described is refused. An automated probe is never presented as a recovery — it evidences that the standby answers, and the page says so in those words.

  • New

    Minimum-retention floors for a statutory obligation

    2026-09-22

    Record how long a class of record must be kept and the obligation it comes from, and the erasure evaluation consults it. The wording is deliberate about what a floor is not: an erasure inside one is refused until a lawful basis is documented, and the floor stops applying once the workspace is older than it. To stop an erasure outright you place a litigation hold.

  • New

    Choose which notifications reach you

    2026-09-22

    Each person can turn off the categories they do not want, and the dispatcher now honours that choice instead of ignoring it. Security and billing stay on for everyone — an access or payment change is not a courtesy notification. No email or push switch is offered, because the product does not send them.

  • New

    Litigation holds you can actually place

    2026-09-22

    Place and release a hold over a scope of records, with the reason recorded. A hold is the hard blocker the erasure engine checks before destroying anything — unlike a retention floor, no lawful basis overrides it.

  • New

    Build a role that matches how your organisation works

    2026-09-22

    Compose a role from the permission catalogue, edit it, and retire it, on the plans that include custom roles. The permissions are grouped by what they govern, and a role that would grant more than the person creating it holds is called out before it is saved.

  • New

    Answer a data-subject request from the console

    2026-09-22

    Produce an individual’s data bundle for an access or portability request, and carry out an erasure, from the request itself. Rectification and restriction are stated as handled by a person, rather than implied to be automatic.

  • Improved

    A privacy request can be recorded as answered

    2026-09-22

    Moving a request through verification, response and closure is now part of the console, so the statutory clock reflects what was actually done rather than staying open on a request that was answered days ago.

  • Fixed

    Erasure now removes the files it said it removed

    2026-09-21

    The storage purge ran against two locations that hold nothing and skipped the ones holding customer documents and generated reports. It now walks every location an organisation’s files actually occupy, reports what it found against what it removed, and does not claim completion when the two disagree.

  • Fixed

    A person’s name and contact details no longer survive their erasure

    2026-09-21

    Two tables held a subject’s email address that neither the export nor the erasure knew about, and a person’s name remained readable on meeting attendance and agenda records after they had been erased. Both are closed, and the export now states which places were not searched rather than implying it searched everywhere.

  • Security

    Two isolation gates could not see half the tables they guard

    2026-09-21

    The checks that prove one organisation cannot read another’s data, and that every tenant table ships with a row-level-security policy, were each blind to a set of tables because of how they parsed the schema. Both now see the full set; the coverage lists may only shrink.

  • New

    Share a single record with a named colleague

    2026-09-20

    Record-level sharing, which the schema has carried since an earlier release, now has a surface. The register records what a grant can actually admit rather than every level the schema allows, so a share that would grant nothing is not offered.

  • Fixed

    Record permissions were checked against the wrong role

    2026-09-20

    The per-record check consulted the built-in role rather than the customer’s own resolved permissions, so a custom role could be refused something it had been granted. Every record decision now runs through one permission path.

  • Improved

    Seven contrast and touch-target defects, and the check that found them

    2026-09-20

    A colour-contrast check that browsers can run but the test environment cannot was added and immediately found seven places where text or a control fell below the accessibility standard. All seven are fixed, and the check now runs on every change.

Version 2.3

  • New

    Your board — one page for a non-executive director

    2026-09-19

    A director signing in for the first time in months now has a single surface: the next meeting and its date, the obligations assigned to them by name or role, and what is waiting to be read. Nothing on it is generated, so opening it twice shows the same thing twice; an undated pack is never presented as imminent, and an empty board is stated as empty rather than filled with suggestions.

  • New

    Board decision papers, and the obligations they create

    2026-09-19

    Issue a decision paper from a board pack: the options, the case AGAINST the recommended one, the facts that would change the conclusion, and resolution text a secretary lifts verbatim into the minute. Once issued it cannot be edited — a correction supersedes it and both remain. Every obligation the decision creates carries an accountable owner; "the organisation" is refused.

  • New

    A figure ledger on every decision paper

    2026-09-19

    Each paper states which of its figures trace to a stored record and which are the pack’s own restatement, in words rather than a badge — so a board knows which numbers have been checked before any of them are minuted.

  • Improved

    Comment threads can be closed, and it is recorded who closed them

    2026-09-19

    Resolving a thread now records the person and the time, so a document can answer "is anything still open on this?" before a decision is taken over an open question. Re-opening is allowed and audited. A thread whose first comment is missing from the page is promoted rather than dropped, so an open question never disappears from the count.

  • New

    Data-subject requests with a statutory clock

    2026-09-19

    Access, erasure, rectification, portability and restriction requests are tracked from the date the SUBJECT asked — not the date the request was opened in the product — with the deadline computed under a named rule (GDPR Article 12(3), India DPDP, CCPA) and stored. Identity must be verified before release, a refusal must carry a lawful reason, and the handling is kept in an append-only trail.

  • Security

    Key custody and resumable key rotation

    2026-09-19

    Every key-encryption-key operation is now recorded with its outcome and latency, identified by a digest prefix rather than the key id. Re-encryption runs carry a cursor and checkpoint after every batch, so an interrupted rotation resumes instead of restarting; a row that cannot be re-encrypted is reported with its identifier and keeps its previous value.

  • Security

    Content-Security-Policy violations are now evidence

    2026-09-19

    Browser reports are aggregated into a durable, queryable store instead of a log line that ages out, so the decision to move the policy from report-only to enforcing rests on a record of what has actually been refused.

  • New

    Model Council

    2026-09-18

    On board-tier modules a council of three independent models is convened and its disagreement is shown to every reader of the insight, not only to administrators. A council never merges outputs — the primary generation stands and the council annotates it. Which providers may see tenant data is a recorded decision; a model with an unattested training posture may sit on the bench for redacted evaluation but is refused a live seat.

  • New

    Risk register: evidence behind every number

    2026-09-18

    A severity downgrade must now be evidenced. Only completed treatments earn a reduction, and a residual severity nothing supports is labelled as unevidenced. Each risk records what it was before anything was done about it, so an improvement can be shown rather than asserted.

  • New

    Risk appetite and key risk indicators

    2026-09-18

    The portfolio is measured against the limits the board actually set — at the residual AND at the untreated baseline, reporting both when they disagree. Indicators track a measurement over time and are direction-aware, so a risk can be shown deteriorating before anybody changes its severity; a trend is never quoted from too few readings.

  • Improved

    Every module’s accountable work reaches the register

    2026-09-18

    Recommendations from the scorecard synthesis, course corrections, innovation moves and security controls now all become owned, time-boxed records rather than prose a director reads once. Where a candidate cannot be dated or owned it is skipped rather than given an invented date.

  • Security

    Two-factor authentication your organisation can enforce

    2026-09-16

    An administrator can require a second factor for everyone in the organisation. The check fails closed — an identity provider that cannot answer is not a reason to admit — with an audited break-glass path so enabling the policy cannot lock an organisation out.

  • New

    Erase one person without erasing the organisation

    2026-09-16

    Right-to-erasure now works at the granularity Article 17 actually has: a named individual can be erased while the organisation around them continues.

  • Improved

    Edit your own profile and change your lens

    2026-09-16

    A member can update their own name and job title and change the persona that selects their whole dashboard, without an administrator.

  • Improved

    A risk mitigation is now a tracked obligation

    2026-09-16

    Mitigations gain an owner, a date and a status instead of being a text field nobody chases, and overdue ones surface rather than sitting quietly.

  • Fixed

    Health checks could not see a subsystem that was down

    2026-09-16

    The platform health endpoint missed one dependency entirely. It now reports every critical subsystem, so an outage is visible where operators look for it.

  • Fixed

    Generation, checkout, invitations and member changes

    2026-09-14

    A detached database call made the rate limiter fail closed, which refused AI generation, checkout, invitations and member changes for two days. Fixed at the root, with a repo-wide check that forbids the pattern and a test that reproduces it.

  • Fixed

    Tier labels, assessment allowances and the purchase funnel

    2026-09-14

    Thirteen module pages advertised the wrong tier, the assessment allowance the pricing page describes was not enforced, and the checkout funnel recorded intents nobody had formed. All three are corrected, and every priced module is now mounted, navigable and gated at the tier that sells it.

  • New

    Four languages across the shell, billing and legal copy

    2026-09-12

    One message catalogue drives navigation, billing and legal surfaces, with a check that no translation can drop or invent a figure the English does not state.

  • Security

    Tenant isolation proved on every push

    2026-09-12

    Continuous integration now builds a real Postgres from the migration tree and runs a two-tenant leakage proof against it, alongside a gate that fails the build if any tenant table ships without a row-level-security policy.

Version 2.2

  • New

    Year-on-Year Governance Review

    2026-07-20

    Compare your fiscal year against the last — maturity trajectory, risk flow, follow-through and recorded value — with cross-period pattern detection (recurring risks, score streaks, follow-through debt). Every figure is deterministic arithmetic over your own records; the platform never simulates a past. Pro and above; fiscal year configurable (April–March default).

  • New

    Annual Governance Record

    2026-07-20

    Freeze a completed fiscal year into an immutable, hash-verifiable snapshot — the year-end record your auditor can verify after export, and that can never be rewritten. Max and Enterprise, admin-only.

Version 2.1

  • New

    Recommendations Spine

    2026-07-18

    Every AI recommendation is now a persisted, owned, priced, time-boxed record with a full lifecycle — regeneration supersedes instead of duplicating, dismissal requires a written reason, and overdue advice escalates automatically to the board-oversight register.

  • New

    Cost of Standing Still

    2026-07-18

    A live, deterministic price on inaction — open risks, stalled initiatives and unactioned recommendations aggregated into one drillable monthly band on the Board Cockpit. No AI computes this number.

  • New

    Accountability Scorecard

    2026-07-18

    The C-suite league table: per executive role, open items, overdue count, oldest age, share of the Cost of Standing Still, and trailing-90-day completion rate.

  • New

    Board packs name ignored advice

    2026-07-18

    Every board pack now includes a server-computed follow-through section — issued, actioned, dismissed-with-reason, and ignored recommendations listed verbatim with owner and monthly cost.

  • New

    Value Transparency

    2026-07-18

    What your subscription delivered this cycle — usage, quotas, and consulting-equivalent value with every assumption visible. Available on every tier.

  • New

    GCC Lifecycle Suite

    2026-07-18

    Charters & SLAs, talent ramp, transfer-of-work and value receipts composed into an HQ scorecard, plus the Charter Defence board pack generated at board tier with register figures rendered verbatim.

  • New

    Tenant revenue intelligence

    2026-07-18

    NRR, GRR and logo churn computed from your own customer book — the same cohort math as the founder cockpit, customer identifiers hashed at rest.

  • New

    Four new executive lenses

    2026-07-18

    CRO, CMO, Chief Sustainability Officer and General Counsel personas, and the persona lens now covers every module surface.

  • Improved

    Clearer navigation

    2026-07-18

    Vendor, talent and ESG surfaces consolidated behind single front doors with cross-links; governance surfaces renamed to remove duplicate-sounding entries. Every previous URL keeps working.

  • Security

    Fail-closed field encryption + credential rotation

    2026-07-18

    Secrets can no longer be stored unencrypted under any configuration; connector credentials gain a rotation endpoint, age tracking and KMS envelope encryption.

Version 2.0

  • New

    Official Python SDK

    2026-06-15

    A stdlib-only Python client at full parity with the TypeScript SDK, kept in lock-step with the API by a CI contract check.

  • New

    Dark mode

    2026-06-14

    Token-based light/dark/system theming across the app, with a per-user toggle in the dashboard header.

  • New

    Analytics foundations

    2026-06-14

    Report definitions, funnel calculations and signed embed tokens behind the API. Corrected 2026-09-24: this entry first described a tool for building your own reports; no screen for it has shipped, and pushing data to your own warehouse is not switched on.

  • New

    Collaboration foundations

    2026-06-13

    The service layer for comments and @mention notifications on artefacts. Corrected 2026-09-24: this entry first described simultaneous editing with presence, which was never shipped. Discussion threads on board decision papers are what customers can use.

  • Improved

    Hybrid retrieval + re-ranking

    2026-06-13

    Answers over your data now use hybrid retrieval with cross-encoder re-ranking and pass a grounding threshold before display.

  • New

    Usage metering foundations

    2026-06-12

    Internal usage meters alongside subscription tiers. Corrected 2026-09-24: this entry first described billing for usage; no usage is invoiced. Every plan carries a monthly AI allowance with no overage charges.

  • Security

    Continuous LLM red-team

    2026-06-12

    Prompt-injection defence upgraded from a fixed corpus to a continuous, multi-layer red-team programme.

  • New

    Partner marketplace & webhooks

    2026-06-11

    OAuth app framework with scoped install/revoke, plus signed, retried outbound webhook delivery.
