July 2026 product update
The first half of 2026 focused on making your projects match how your teams actually work — and stand up to audit.
Hi there,
The first half of 2026 focused on making your projects match how your teams actually work — and stand up to audit. Highlights below, grouped by product.
R&D Credit
R&D projects built for fast review — and audit
- Project names come straight from your Epics, so they read like the work your engineers actually did.
- Narratives (description, uncertainty, experimentation) upgraded for enterprise IRS audits — a 2× improvement in our internal audit-quality evals.
- Generated by upgraded self-hosted models: better quality, your data stays in our environment.
Supervisor & Creator R&D %
- Blends a supervisor’s own R&D with their team’s average and spreads it across the right projects — as a preview you approve before anything is applied.
- Optionally uses ticket creators to catch contributors who shape the work without being assigned tickets.
- → Supervisor R&D Calculation
Payroll matching that catches everyone
- See your match rate at a glance and filter straight to unmatched people.
- Handles name variations and employees who moved or worked across multiple states; clearer, faster upload validation.
ASC 350-40
Use your own project list
- Match new engineering work to the consolidated project list your team already tracks, aligned to your accounting names.
- Maintenance, KTLO, and ops work is routed out of feature projects automatically. If you don’t have a list, we generate one.
- → Project Matching for ASC 350
Capitalization that follows your policy
- Include or exclude specific projects and teams from matching.
- Set how aggressively work is capitalized, plus a non-project-time minimum.
- → Project Matching for ASC 350
Close on your schedule
- Sync ASC data earlier in the month to close faster.
- Effort from tickets completed before your sync date stays in the month it belongs to.
Auditor-ready ASC export
- Adds project start and end dates, capitalization end-date reasoning, and capitalization status.
- Employee IDs and added columns let you pivot capitalization by team or department.
Platform
Full Jira Data Center integration
- Connect self-hosted Jira without a cloud migration.
- Parent Epics from Jira Plans and Advanced Roadmaps are captured correctly, so more work rolls up to the right project.
Faster syncing at enterprise scale
- Companies with millions of tickets sync without hitting memory or timeout limits.
- Pull ticket data from your Snowflake warehouse with full parity to the Jira API.
