PlatformMixedv2.0.0
Featured image for v2.0.0 — Self-Serve Email Change & AI Assistant Focus Mode

Change your email yourself
You can now update your email address from your account page. The new address is confirmed via a verification email before it takes effect, so your account stays in your control at every step.
AI assistant focus mode
The AI assistant panel can now widen for deeper work and remembers your preference per project. When you're heads-down in review, the assistant claims more screen real estate; switch back and it tucks away again.
A heads-up about sign-in
We've completed routine auth hardening behind the scenes. As part of that you'll receive a one-time email asking you to set a password. The clearly-labeled "Set your password" link takes about 30 seconds, and after that, sign-in works the way you're used to.
Also improved

  • The System Security Plan now renders your live boundary diagram inline, with clearer draft-status cues and key cover-page fields filled in.

  • Folio detail shows control names alongside objective IDs, with direct links to objective pages.

  • The document editor now handles bullet and numbered lists correctly inside tables, with link URL validation feedback.

  • Evidence detail has corrected file-type icons, PDF rendering, and cross-origin preview.

  • The roster page has a corrected title and no longer shows a misleading task-count block.

  • Sessions are more stable for users behind VPN or proxy configurations.

PlatformMixedv1.8.0
Featured image for v1.8.0 — Strategic Gap Assessments, Workflow-First Navigation & Unified Authoring

Run a CMMC L2 gap assessment with a strategic ordering, not a blank slate

Open Gap Assessment in the Baseline phase and you'll find the Deep Fathom Playbook — a six-stage ordering across all 14 CMMC L2 families, designed to surface the foundation controls first (Identity, Access, Audit) before working out to boundary, people, and risk. Click Start playbook and the assessment materializes into six Review groups you can tackle in any order. Each review group shows live progress (5 / 95 reviewed · 12% complete), and the playbook header tracks how far you are through the full 320-objective gap assessment. Prefer to scope it yourself? Custom review group lets you pick a recipe (all objectives, random sample, POA&M-eligible), choose a control family, and set a sample size.

Navigate by compliance phase, not entity type

Your workspace sidebar follows the natural compliance lifecycle — Scope, Baseline, Implement, Document, Assess, and Maintain — instead of listing entity categories. Each phase groups the pages and actions relevant to that stage, with badge counts that surface where attention is needed. Phase items now aggregate counts from their children with hover tooltips, and new projects see an onboarding checklist that guides initial setup, then gets out of the way once your workspace has momentum. Workbenches you reach from the sidebar (Policy Authoring, Coverage Explorer, Asset Categorization, Boundary Diagramming, Assessment) keep the phase chrome — open one from a launcher card and it switches into focus mode automatically.

Author and review compliance content in one place

Policies, procedures, and implementation statements share a unified authoring experience. Your control requirements, linked entities, and scoring rubric stay visible alongside the editor as you write. AI-assisted review shows interactive diffs you can accept with a single click, and Fix mode generates targeted edits you can apply or discard inline — so review cycles move faster without losing context.

Folios track coverage across your library

Library pages for evidence, policies, assets, vendors, rosters, and inventory lists have been rebuilt with richer row displays and a Folio view that groups documents by the requirements they satisfy. Coverage tracking per folio shows which requirements have supporting material and which still need attention.
Also improved

  • Push evidence and artifacts from external tools via the Outpost ingest API, with API token authentication, full provenance tracking, and stable download links for the bundles you produce.

  • POA&M sheet now has elevated section grouping and an in-place Edit mode.

  • Project dashboard redesigned with real-time summary widgets for assessment readiness and evidence health.

  • User preferences page with dark and light theme toggle.

  • SSP Section 1.1 now unifies the Cover and Scoping fields into one card with proper data wiring; Section 5 family tiles no longer flash NaN% while loading.

  • Editor improvements — table menu opens on right-click instead of left-click, and Mention/Image attributes inherit correctly across copy/paste.

  • Upload reliability — stuck PROCESSING uploads now reconcile, retries clear stale errors, and image bytes reach the vision model directly so multi-page extracts don't drop pages.

  • 96% reduction in dependency vulnerabilities, with CI now blocking high-severity regressions.

  • Form inputs on dark surfaces are consistently visible across all sheets and dialogs.

  • Recovered the missing 320th CMMC L2 objective (ca-4_obj_h) so the catalog is complete.

  • The dashboard, scope diagram, inventory list, and policies table got dozens of smaller polish fixes from the pre-release bug bash.

PlatformMixedv1.6.0
Featured image for v1.6.0 — Persistent Uploads, Stronger Review & Smoother Workflows

Persistent upload workbench
Upload Anything now keeps the full ingestion flow in one place. You can watch
upload runs as extraction progresses, stay in the same workbench while results
arrive, and review extracted entities one by one before they become part of the
project record.
Stronger SSP and evidence review
SSP completion now gives clearer progress signals and snapshot creation, while
provenance-first content handling, document metadata, and system environment
sections make it easier to see what is complete, what still needs evidence, and
where supporting material came from before you rely on it in an assessment.
Smoother navigation and admin workflows
Document preview, folio and sheet navigation, related-entity links, and person
compliance-role editing all work more cleanly across the workbench. System
admins can also update demo outbound communications directly from the admin
surface.
Also improved

  • Upload validation and background processing are more resilient, reducing

stalls on larger or longer-running document sets.

  • Compliance graph and folio views expose more runtime detail for adequacy

review and follow-up work.

  • Sidebar behavior and context-preserving navigation are steadier across dense

review flows.
