All our latest releases, improvements and fixes. Updated with every deployment.
v3.0
August 26, 2026
New release
By Thomas Demoncy
Pre-validation of activity and expense reports
Review your freelancers' reports before they go out for signature, and accept or reject each one with a reason.
- NewReport pre-validation, enabled separately for activity and expense reports in the agency settings: a submitted report moves to pending review, with its own todo and notification.
- NewAccept a report to trigger its generation and send it out for signature, or reject it with a mandatory reason: it goes back to draft and the freelancer is told why.
- NewFilter the activity and expense report lists on the "pending review" state to handle everything waiting on you in one go.
- ImprovementUnified submission for freelancers: a single "Submit" action, and the confirmation dialog says whether the agency has to validate before signature.
- FixMileage scale: each trip in an expense report is now priced on the running annual total, instead of each one claiming the full yearly catch-up. Some distances also blocked submission, which is now fixed.
- FixSignature and comments: French month names and Paris-time deadlines in signature emails, a comments panel that no longer opens on its own, and mentions restricted to the people you can actually tag.

- NewComments on activity and expense reports: a thread shared between the agency and the freelancer, with mentions and participant notifications — which you can turn off from your preferences.

- NewSetup checklist on the agency dashboard, including an optional step to invite a teammate.
