Economico changelog

A changelog you can browse and link to

Tue, 03 Nov 2026 08:41:56 +0100

The problem: You want to know what changed in the tool that keeps your books, and a single endless page made that hard to scan, share or follow.

Every change now has its own page you can link to, with the problem it solves first. Browse by product area, page back through older changes, or follow along by RSS at /changelog/index.xml.

See vendor cost shares and amounts still to invoice

Mon, 02 Nov 2026 12:10:00 +0000

Vendor pages show how much of your recorded cost of revenue comes from that vendor, in the same currency. Fixed-term contract pages show the amount still to invoice beside what has already been invoiced and paid. Variable and open-ended prices stay marked as unconfirmed.

Find contracts by type

Mon, 02 Nov 2026 12:09:00 +0000

Filter Contracts to customer agreements, vendor agreements, investments and ownership, or other agreements. The filter searches all your contracts and keeps working as you page through the results.

See what your business still owes you

Mon, 02 Nov 2026 12:08:00 +0000

Founder pages compare cash reimbursements with the money the business still owes for personally funded spending, separately for each currency. When the books can identify the open funding claims, the comparison includes their count and the age of the oldest one.

Compare investor financing and open contract versions

Mon, 02 Nov 2026 12:07:00 +0000

Investor pages compare each investor’s outstanding SAFEs and convertible notes with the other investors’ balances, separately for each currency. Contract pages also link saved agreement versions, where you can read the terms and source documents behind each one.

Readable dates and copyable IDs in your agent

Mon, 02 Nov 2026 12:06:00 +0000

Inline reports use your agent’s locale and time zone for dates and times. Long contract, document and other record IDs are shortened on screen, with Copy for the complete value. If your agent blocks clipboard access, you can select the full ID to copy it yourself.

Keep investor balances accurate after incorporation

Mon, 02 Nov 2026 12:05:00 +0000

SAFE and convertible balances follow your project into its company books. Later repayments and conversions reduce the outstanding amount on investor pages, while the original SAFE terms and purchase commitment stay attached. Dated reports preserve the balance at that date.

See SAFE terms beside an investor's holdings

Mon, 02 Nov 2026 12:04:00 +0000

The problem: An investor asks what their SAFE is worth at the cap, and the terms live in a PDF and a spreadsheet nobody trusts.

Your agent can record a SAFE’s valuation cap, pre- or post-money basis and discount in its agreement terms. Investor pages show those terms and, for an outstanding post-money SAFE, an estimate at the cap in the same currency. Missing terms stay unknown; the estimate stays separate from issued shares and does not forecast a future conversion.

Start a contract over when it was set up wrong

Mon, 02 Nov 2026 12:03:00 +0000

The problem: A customer deal was entered the wrong way, invoices already went out against it, and now every month’s revenue is off.

If your agent set up a contract the wrong way, for example with the wrong usage metrics, and recorded invoices and payments against it, it can now void the whole contract in one step. It shows you what will be taken back first. After the void, your reports read as if the contract never existed, for every past month, and money already paid stays with the customer or vendor as unapplied money. Your agent then sets up the right contract, records the same invoices and usage again and applies those payments to it. Nothing is deleted: the history still shows what was voided and why.

See a founder's vesting schedule

Mon, 02 Nov 2026 12:02:00 +0000

The problem: A board member or a new investor asks how much of each founder’s stock has vested, and the answer is a calculation someone redoes by hand.

Founder pages show the agreement’s vesting cadence and next scheduled date beside recorded vested and unvested shares. Each upcoming tranche is capped at the remaining restricted grant. Schedules that need evidence or facts keep those gaps visible.

Agreements can put people in the right relationship list

Mon, 02 Nov 2026 12:01:00 +0000

Your agent can declare founder, employee, investor, customer or vendor roles in an agreement template. When the contract is accepted, those roles are added to each party’s existing categories, so they appear in the corresponding relationship lists. Existing agreements keep their recorded categories.

More reliable invoice and receipt parsing

Sun, 01 Nov 2026 12:03:00 +0000

Receipts that include an invoice number keep their receipt classification. When the fast model is uncertain about a document’s type, a larger model checks it. Long invoices and receipts can use source-backed headers without hitting unused reference-candidate limits; uncertain financial facts still need review.

Invoice and receipt fields can be parsed before you choose a contract. If OCR cannot confirm a PDF’s readable text, its parsed fields remain available for review and recording stays blocked. Complete, verified documents still need the ordinary contract, ownership and recording checks.

Your open books update themselves

Sun, 01 Nov 2026 12:02:00 +0000

The problem: You are about to share numbers and can’t tell whether the page in front of you includes what your agent just recorded.

When your agent records an invoice, the CLI logs a payment, or a scheduled change takes effect, the Economico page you have open updates within a couple of seconds. You don’t need to reload. If you’re typing into a form, nothing is replaced: a notice offers the latest version when you want it. Shared report links update the same way.

See the books before connecting

Sun, 01 Nov 2026 12:01:00 +0000

The homepage and feature pages show real sample-business screens: account balances, ledger postings, overdue invoices, invoice evidence, reports and recorded commands.

Browser agents can work in your open books

Sat, 31 Oct 2026 12:02:00 +0000

A browser agent supporting WebMCP can read records, run reports and propose changes while Economico is open. Each change shows the business and proposed values for your approval before it is sent. Tools follow your current permissions and stay on the business in the tab. Support depends on the browser and agent; live ChatGPT browser-agent verification is pending.

Founders and Startup plans

Sat, 31 Oct 2026 12:01:00 +0000

Founders is $29 a month or $290 a year for up to three people total, including the owner and read-only members, with 1,000 events a month. Teammates have bookkeeper or reader access. Startup is $79 a month or $790 a year for unlimited people with their own permissions and 5,000 events a month. Both include shared views and scoped agents; agents do not count as people.

Existing Startup customers keep their signed price, included events and unlimited members. YC offers apply to both paid plans. See pricing for the terms.

Reports include the whole day you ask for

Fri, 23 Oct 2026 12:06:00 +0000

Ask for your balance sheet as of today, or your profit and loss through today, and it now includes everything recorded today. A date always covers the whole day, so a balance sheet and a profit and loss for the same date agree. Days are counted in UTC, so something recorded late in the evening in the Americas falls on the next day.

Clearer report charts

Fri, 23 Oct 2026 12:05:00 +0000

Default alive or dead opens on your last complete month, so the verdict reflects a full month of recognized revenue. Long account names in the income statement flow chart wrap instead of being cut off, and trend lines in SaaS metrics end in a round dot.

The Economico skill comes with the MCP server

Fri, 23 Oct 2026 12:04:00 +0000

Agent hosts that read skills from an MCP server load the economico skill when you connect Economico, with no separate install. ChatGPT’s app builder imports it when it scans the tools.

Ask for help from a demo company

Fri, 23 Oct 2026 12:03:00 +0000

From a demo company, you or your agent can now send us a support request or suggest a feature, the same way as from your own books, up to five a day. We can’t reply to a demo, so if you need an answer, write to us from your own business.

Sign in and return to your page

Fri, 23 Oct 2026 12:02:00 +0000

Opening a business page while signed out brings you back to that page after email or Google sign-in, including the filters you were using.

Consistent names across your books

Fri, 23 Oct 2026 12:01:00 +0000

Financial accounts, the product catalog and payment methods use the same names across the workspace, model previews and tool descriptions.

Direct read actions in ChatGPT

Thu, 22 Oct 2026 12:07:00 +0000

Your agent can choose customer, document, ledger and business reads directly. Each action shows only the inputs it needs, with shorter descriptions that explain what it does.

Clearer report and recording actions in ChatGPT

Thu, 22 Oct 2026 12:06:00 +0000

Your agent can select each financial report directly, with the inputs that report needs. Recording an incorporation, payment fee or account transfer is labelled as recording a fact that already happened. These actions do not register a company or move money.

Pay plan invoices through Link, MPP or x402

Thu, 22 Oct 2026 12:05:00 +0000

An authorized agent can pay an offered Startup or Solo extra-events invoice through a Link Shared Payment Token, MPP or x402. The payment exchange uses the same invoice status and recovery flow as card collection, so retries do not create a second purchase. The invoice’s returned methods and challenge tell the agent exactly which payment protocol is available.

Read pages and errors directly from your agent

Thu, 22 Oct 2026 12:04:00 +0000

Agents can request the homepage and developer guides as Markdown using Accept: text/markdown. Missing pages explain where to look next, and REST sign-in errors include a structured recovery hint. The API reference describes error bodies, and public API reads advertise their rate-limit policy. The developer portal links to an isolated demo company, and Contact lists how to reach us.

Finish Startup setup after a saved-card retry

Thu, 22 Oct 2026 12:03:00 +0000

If your first Startup payment needs a saved card and a later retry collects it, checking the purchase or retrying setup uses the recorded payment to activate your plan. You are not asked to pay again, and checking an unpaid purchase does not charge your card.

Reports that open in your agent

Thu, 22 Oct 2026 12:02:00 +0000

Financial reports and customer views open correctly in the interactive MCP App. You can read the report alongside your conversation, including recurring revenue, overdue invoices and ownership.

Find the right setup and API reference

Thu, 22 Oct 2026 12:01:00 +0000

Start with the developer quickstart to connect the CLI and read a balance sheet. Public authentication and API guides include Markdown copies, and agents can find the docs, OpenAPI reference, skills and MCP connection metadata from one linked catalog. When authentication is throttled, responses tell agents how long to wait before retrying.

On browsers with WebMCP support, agents can read the current workspace page and open its listed business views using your signed-in session.

Explore a demo company first

Wed, 21 Oct 2026 12:13:00 +0000

Not ready to set up your own books? From signup, or while connecting ChatGPT or another agent, open TinyCRM Studio and connect it: a fictional subscription software company with fifteen months of books up to today, including monthly and annual plans, upgrades, cancellations, overdue invoices and a seed round. It is your own copy to explore and change. It is clearly marked as a demo, only you can see it, and it never takes a plan or reaches anyone else. When you are done, delete it for good, or start again from a fresh copy.

Billing retries after a processing setup fault

Wed, 21 Oct 2026 12:12:00 +0000

If our payment-processing setup needs repair, your payment stays ready to retry. The fault goes to our operators without counting as a failed card payment or using your payment retries.

A paid plan can finish setup after an interrupted payment

Wed, 21 Oct 2026 12:11:00 +0000

If a payment is recorded but setup is interrupted, recovery uses that recorded payment to finish the purchase. A software update or a temporary Stripe outage does not leave an already paid purchase waiting for a new payment.

Recover past Startup subscription expenses

Wed, 21 Oct 2026 12:10:00 +0000

Economico can recover past monthly Startup fees that stayed in prepaid expenses after their service was recorded. Each month moves to subscription expense once, with its original record retained in your books.

Annual Startup fees become a monthly expense

Wed, 21 Oct 2026 12:09:00 +0000

An annual Startup fee is spread across the twelve months it pays for. Each month moves one twelfth from prepaid expenses to software subscription expense, with the final month keeping any rounding. Past annual fees can be recovered through the same process.

An income statement without the empty rows

Wed, 21 Oct 2026 12:08:00 +0000

The income statement lists only accounts with a balance in the period you chose, and leaves off expense groups with nothing in them, so a month reads as what actually happened.

Invite a coworker by email from your agent

Wed, 21 Oct 2026 12:07:00 +0000

On Startup, ask your agent, in Claude, ChatGPT or any MCP client, to invite a coworker by email with read, bookkeeping or administrator access. They get an email, sign in or create an account with that address, and accept the invitation themselves; nobody has access until they do. Invitations expire after seven days, and your agent can list or withdraw the ones still pending. On Solo, your agent explains that coworkers need Startup and links to pricing.

Closed businesses leave your lists

Wed, 21 Oct 2026 12:06:00 +0000

A business you have closed no longer appears when you choose which businesses an agent may connect to, or when you pick a business to open.

A dedicated connection for ChatGPT

Wed, 21 Oct 2026 12:05:00 +0000

Connect your Economico business through the ChatGPT MCP interface, or create one on the free Solo plan as you connect. Each recording action has its own tool, alongside the familiar reads and reports. Your existing plan applies; when a feature needs another entitlement, the response links to pricing information. ChatGPT directory publication is pending. The bundled skill guides recording delivered work, unpaid bills and partial receipts, then checking profit, cash and outstanding balances.

More complete setup and review guidance

Wed, 21 Oct 2026 12:04:00 +0000

The agent skill guides setting up a price book before the first sale, keeping payment evidence, finding bank and card branding, and recording completed vendor services. Founder review shows the price book and costs before asking for decisions; missing ownership details stay gaps.

Paid-plan setup handles an update to payment processing

Wed, 21 Oct 2026 12:03:00 +0000

When you start a paid plan, card collection can finish even if our payment-processing setup needs an update.

Plan payments retain any excess for return

Wed, 21 Oct 2026 12:02:00 +0000

If Stripe reports a card payment above your plan invoice, the invoice is marked paid and the excess is recorded as money owed back to you. Retrying the payment records it once, without another charge.

Monthly Startup fees appear as an expense

Wed, 21 Oct 2026 12:01:00 +0000

Your monthly Startup fee is recorded as a software subscription expense when its period starts, including the first paid period. A credit for a written-off invoice reverses that expense too. Annual fees remain prepaid while their recognition policy is being decided.

Exchange rates and comparisons across currencies

Tue, 20 Oct 2026 12:01:00 +0000

Your agent can look up a current or historical exchange rate through the reports tool, with the source and observation date beside the exact rate. This helps check a price in another currency without recording anything in your books. Payment amounts still come from evidence of what was actually paid.

Reports can show indicative totals in your functional currency beside the native books, with the rates used and a clear unavailable state when a rate is missing. Recurring metrics, cash runway, default-alive projections and unit economics use combined inputs, while keeping amounts already booked at their transaction rates. The workspace and human CLI output preserve native currencies and separate statement periods. Platform-fee previews can include revenue recorded in another currency, with the original amount and rate visible; previews record no charge. For prepared-book presentation, a signed-in human can approve a sourced rate and retain its provider details with the approval document.

Billing shows what a cancel charged, and whether you can keep your plan

Mon, 19 Oct 2026 12:03:00 +0000

When you cancel a plan that bills extra events at once, Billing now shows that charge, how much it was and whether it is paid, and says how many events you can still record and until when. When keeping the plan would be refused, Billing says so and why, for example that the charge must be paid first, instead of offering Keep.

Imported subscriptions aren't invoiced twice

Mon, 19 Oct 2026 12:02:00 +0000

When you or your agent bring in a subscription from before your business joined Economico, the daily schedule no longer invoices its past months again. It invoices only what falls due after the subscription is brought in, however long after signup that is, so the invoices you import from your old books are the only ones for those months. Economico’s own invoices for your plan also arrive in your books by themselves; recording one by hand is refused, so it can never block the real one.

Event allowance emails with the recording that reaches the threshold

Mon, 19 Oct 2026 12:01:00 +0000

On Startup or Solo with extra events, the recording that reaches 80% or 100% of your included events triggers the owners’ email straight away, as on Solo. The daily check stays as a backstop, and each threshold is emailed once per period. If you cancelled the plan, the email says where recordings stop and until when.

Contract value reflects unbilled periods and credit notes

Sun, 18 Oct 2026 12:07:00 +0000

For fixed terms and subscriptions ended in their first year, contract value leaves out the unbilled part of an unfinished arrears period when billing and value calendars align and billing is automatic or period evidence exists. Credit notes linked to those billing periods reduce their value; a replacement invoice restores what it bills. Refunding a credit note does not reduce it again. Subscriptions valued as one year keep their annualised price. Billing previews use the agreement version from the start of each period, matching the invoice recorded for it.

Bring in your existing books, free

Sun, 18 Oct 2026 12:06:00 +0000

Your history now comes in free. Anything you or your agents record dated before your business joined Economico, such as last year’s customers, contracts, invoices and payments, does not count toward your monthly events. It uses your one-time import allowance of 1,000 events on Solo or 10,000 on Startup once its first fee is paid (not during the trial), and the billing page shows how much is left. Anyone in your company can bring history in, and each imported entry shows who recorded it.

Closing a business ends its paid plan

Sun, 18 Oct 2026 12:05:00 +0000

When you close a business that is on a paid plan, the plan now ends with it. The business stays open until the end of the period you already paid for, then closes, and the card saved for it is removed once its last charge is settled. Closing cancels the plan the way cancelling it does: extra events recorded so far this period are billed and charged right away, and recordings past the included events pause until the business closes. You get an email with the closing date, and the cancellation page and Billing show it. You can stop the closing until that date; the business stays open and the plan still ends with its period, and you can keep it from Billing where your agreement allows. A business with no paid plan closes at once, as before.

Keep Startup after a cancel, and choose it again the moment it ends

Sun, 18 Oct 2026 12:04:00 +0000

If you cancel monthly Startup after using extra events, those extra events are billed at once, and that charge stands in for next month’s invoice. You can still keep Startup: once that charge is paid, Keep Startup in Billing shows a new Startup agreement that starts the day your current one ends, with its price, and accepting it keeps your plan running with no gap. Until then the period you cancelled in stays at its included events, as before.

When a plan ends, Billing now shows it as ended straight away, and you can choose Startup or extra events again at once. Any new plan starts only once every invoice from Economico is paid: while one is unpaid, choosing a plan, switching between monthly and annual, or keeping Startup with a new agreement takes you to Billing to pay it first.
