Built in public

Changelog

A concise record of meaningful product changes. During beta, we separate what is in the current build from what is being tested or considered.

Public beta, built with care

This log reflects product-level changes, not every commit. A “planned” item is a direction, not a delivery promise; availability can depend on reliability and capacity.
