Latest changes
Next release · v1.61.0 (in progress)- New Coaches can add a meeting link on a confirmed consultation so both sides can join.
- New Admins now manage site copy, glossary terms, and page help in one place, with preview, history, and one-click revert.
- New Your earnings statement now shows the server-computed total for a closed period — the exact amount to put on your invoice — instead of asking you to add up the pages yourself. If the total cannot be loaded it says so; it never shows £0.00 in place of an answer.
- New Becoming a coach is now a guided journey from the invitation email to your first booking setup: dead links say exactly what happened (expired, already accepted, or withdrawn) before you sign in, the invitation states who it is for and confirms you are signed in with the invited address, your pay terms are stated in full before you accept, and accepting opens "My practice" immediately — no sign-out — with the two setup steps that make you bookable.
- New "My practice" is now a six-area workspace — Today, Schedule, Services, Clients, Earnings and Profile — so a coach can see what needs their response, when members can book them, what they offer, who they have worked with, what they have earned, and how members see them. Older links open the matching area.
- New Schedule now previews the next fortnight of bookable capacity alongside your weekly hours, counting only hours a member could still take — anything already booked is never offered as free.
- New Live coaches can now see an Earnings statement on their dashboard, showing what they have earned, what has been reversed, what is allocated to a payout and what is already paid for a period they choose, with a plain note that payouts run monthly and they invoice for the closed total.
- New The public pricing page now explains Consultations up front: three example sessions at exact VAT-inclusive prices, how booking works, and the small print — a Member subscription unlocks booking and never includes a session.
- New Members and coaches now get a warning four hours before a consultation's payment deadline, so an unpaid booking is never lost without notice.
- New A finished, declined, expired or cancelled consultation now offers "Book again", which reopens its request form — shown only while that consultation is still offered and new bookings are open.
- New Coaches can now see what they have earned, session by session, in their own statement — including any goodwill or corrective adjustments an administrator has recorded. Amounts are shown only to the coach they belong to.
- New Administrators can prepare a monthly payout for a coach, attach the coach's invoice, approve it, and record that it was paid. Recording a payment does not send money; payments are still made separately, and the page says so at the point of the action.
- New Administrators can record a reasoned adjustment against a coach's earnings, and correct an earlier one. Nothing is ever edited or deleted: a correction is a new opposite entry, so both the original and the correction stay visible.
- New Administrators can check the recorded figures against the payment provider on demand, and export a bookkeeping spreadsheet for a chosen period. The check reports what disagrees and never changes anything by itself.
- New Coaches now have an attention-first dashboard for requests needing a response, sessions waiting on a member, upcoming work, and filterable history. Session notifications open the selected detail, and existing work stays available if new consultation bookings are paused.
- New Choose an available fixed time slot for a consultation request, with availability checked again when you submit it.
- New Coaches can now set a weekly availability pattern in their IANA time zone from Coach services. Multiple local-time periods stay aligned through seasonal clock changes, and revision checks prevent one browser from overwriting another coach edit.
- New Live coaches can now create, price, edit, suspend, and reinstate their own consultation types. Members browse active offerings by coach, while administrators retain cross-coach oversight and can safely bring legacy offerings under a coach once.
- New Coaches can now join through a secure invitation without being given site-admin access, and admins can manage pending coach invitations from Consultations.
- New Coaches can now join through a secure invitation without being given site-admin access, and admins can manage coach invitation lifecycles from Consultations. Invitation credentials are kept out of logged paths, paused or suspended coaches are hidden, and role changes invalidate existing sessions.
- New Your property notes now follow the property: notes you write on a portfolio property appear on any saved calculation linked to it, and you can write notes from the calculator too. A calculation not yet in your portfolio shows a one-click "add to portfolio" prompt so its notes have somewhere to live.
- New Stress-test any calculator result with one-click scenarios — rent down, rates up, longer voids.
- New Opportunity Nuggets now has a dedicated home — browse the full weekly series by month, search it, and filter by topic at /app/nuggets.
- New The six conversion calculators are now fully usable. Commercial-to-residential, HMO conversion, multi-flat, multi-serviced-accommodation, mixed-use, and ground-up new build now have proper input forms instead of a "coming soon" placeholder — set up the site, add each output unit (type, size, build cost, sale value, rent), and get an instant appraisal with GDV, build costs, profit-on-cost, a planning verdict, and a per-unit breakdown. Each calculator starts from a sensible worked example you can edit.
- New Search by town or village name: type "Buxton" (or any of 32,000 GB places) in Property Search, Research, or the Deal Finder area picker and jump straight there — duplicate names are labelled with their council so you always pick the right one.
- New Jump anywhere instantly: press Ctrl-K (or Cmd-K on Mac), or use the new Search button in the top bar, to open a command palette listing every page you can access.

- New Calculators now detect whether a property is in England, Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland and apply the correct stamp duty or land tax rates automatically, with a jurisdiction indicator shown on your results.
- New We now ask you to verify your email address to help keep your account secure — check your inbox for a confirmation link.
- New Deal Finder — search every investment strategy at once against your own criteria (location, property type, funding, target returns and more), with matches ranked, compared side by side, and saved straight to your portfolio.
- New Save a Deal Finder search and get an email overnight whenever new matches appear, with a dedicated page to track match history for every saved search.
- New Conversion Calculator — model unit conversions (HMO, multi-flat, multi short-let, mixed-use and new build) complete with VAT treatment, planning guidance and finance costs, with ready-made templates to get you started quickly.
- New See whether a property sits inside an Article 4 planning-restriction area — which can block conversions such as HMOs — before you commit, sourced from official council and government records.
- New Calculator results and verdict banners now show the exact benchmark you're being measured against (for example, the minimum lender DSCR) next to your own figure.
