Changelog

Clearer refusals, and recovery codes at reset

Released: version 2026.10.15, 15 October 2026. Platform.

Every refusal says what went wrong in plain words, and a password reset respects your second factor.

Sign-in

• Resetting with an authenticator: a password reset on an account with an authenticator asks for its code, or one of your recovery codes.

The product

• Clearer refusals: in the product and at sign-in, a refused field is marked under the field, and anything else is said in a message of its own.
• Closing your account: closing an account that still owns an agency says so, rather than failing.

One sign-in, and a firmer door

Released: version 2026.10.14, 14 October 2026. Platform.

Signing in once carries you across Briesa, a password change asks for a code we email you, and every page refuses what another site tries to send it.

Sign-in

• One sign-in: one session, kept fresh quietly, carries you from the sign-in screen to your agency with no step between them.
• Changing your password: the account menu asks for your current password and a code emailed to you.

Security

• Second factor first: an account with an authenticator is acted on only once its code is given, and an agency that requires one admits nobody without it.
• Only our own scripts: every page refuses to run a script it did not send itself.
• No changes from other sites: a change sent from another website is refused before it reaches your agency.

Billing

• No GST: invoices say plainly that no GST is charged.
• Leaving without a card: an owner whose agency never entered a card can still close it and leave.

Reliability

• Email in the background: every email is queued and sent once, and what became of it is recorded.
• Webhook retries: a failed delivery is tried again at 1, 5, 30 and 120 minutes, each attempt in the delivery log.
• Renewal alerts: an expiring licence or accreditation raises its task, its audit entry and a notice to your owners together.
• Billing checked nightly: each night your billing is compared with the payment provider’s records, and any difference is put right.

An ended subscription comes back through billing

Released: version 2026.10.12, 12 October 2026. Billing.

When a subscription ends, every page leads to billing, where the card can be entered again.

Billing

• Back in with a card: every page of an agency whose subscription has ended goes to billing, and entering a card again opens the agency.

Security

• Your codes, your count: wrong second-factor codes count against your own account only, so nobody can lock another person out.

A card on file, and emails that look like Briesa

Released: version 2026.10.11, 11 October 2026. Billing.

An agency enters with a card on file, cancelling waits for the end of the period you have paid for, and the sign-in emails are redesigned.

Billing

• A card at the door: an agency without a card on file is offered checkout before it enters, and a finished checkout takes you straight in.
• Cancel at the period’s end: cancelling from the billing portal keeps your access until the period you have paid for ends.

Sign-in

• Redesigned emails: the sign-in emails carry the Briesa logo, one clear button and what to do next.
• Straight in after the code: once the emailed code is entered, you go straight to your agency.

Tags, templates and registers in your own words

Released: version 2026.10.07, 7 October 2026. Product.

Contacts take tags, an office keeps its own checklist templates, policies start from your state’s templates, and each register asks for what it records.

The product

• Tagged contacts: tag a contact in its form, and filter the list by any tag.
• Your own checklist templates: keep your office’s templates and your copies of the presets under Settings, and a new listing or management starts its checklists for you.
• Material facts: the material fact checklist sits beside the compliance list on the property.
• Policies from your state’s templates: generate them as drafts, all at once or a few, and see what was made and what was skipped.
• Registers in their own words: each register’s form and columns fit what it records; keys are signed back in, and devices assigned and returned.
• Notes on tasks: add notes when creating or editing a task, and read them on its card.
• The whole book: sales and managements keep every property one step away, including those with nothing live.
• Quicker pages: a page you return to from the sidebar opens at once, refreshed by the refresh button or a reload.

On a phone

• The calendar: the month shows a dot on each busy day, and the week lists its days.
• The audit log: keeps its three columns on a phone and narrows them on a tablet.

Sign-in

• A second factor for everyone: an agency can require one, and a member without it sets it up before entering.

Billing

• The card at sign-up: the owner enters a card when creating the agency, and the first charge comes after the free trial.

Checklists on the property, and monthly plans

Released: version 2026.09.30, 30 September 2026. Compliance.

Compliance checklists are made and evidenced from the property itself, and every plan is billed monthly after a free trial.

The product

• Checklists on the property: make, name and edit a checklist from the property’s compliance tab, and attach a document to tick the item it proves.
• AML references: anti-money-laundering internal references have a register of their own, numbered within your agency.
• Sales and managements: properties narrow to the live sales or the managements, with counts to match.
• Finding attendees: search for people by name or email when adding them to an event or a meeting.

Billing

• Monthly plans: every plan is billed monthly, and the people who sign in decide the plan; no seat is charged.
• A free trial: a new subscription starts with a free trial, and the first charge comes after it.
• Cancelling: access runs to the end of the month you have paid for.

Sign-in

• Back to the website: back on the sign-in screens returns to the website.

Your agency, on its own records

Released: version 2026.09.27, 27 September 2026. Platform.

Briesa leaves the demo agency behind: an agency signs up, opens its own workspace and works on its own records, with every change in its audit log.

Sign-in

• Your own account: sign up, confirm your address and create your agency, or join one from an invitation.
• A second factor: turn on an authenticator app, keep a sheet of recovery codes, and end your sessions from the account menu, one at a time or everywhere at once.

The product

• Your records, not the demo’s: properties, contacts, tasks, the calendar, meetings, policies, the registers, the trust accounts and the audit log read and write your agency’s own data.
• Groups and offices: a group opens offices, moves people between them, and sets the name, colour and logo its offices and sign-in screens wear.
• Three states: Victoria and Queensland join New South Wales, each with its own templates, checklists and changes to the law for your agency to review.
• Portals for vendors and landlords: send a link with its PIN given separately, and they see their own sale or tenancy and nothing more, including what buyers said at the open home, without their names.
• Audit packs: share a pack with an auditor by link and PIN; the fifth wrong PIN locks it.
• Keys and webhooks: an owner or admin makes keys for other software, and webhooks that tell it what changed, each delivery signed and logged.

Billing

• Your plan in settings: the plan, the card and the invoices, with a secure billing portal to manage them.

Security

• Support you can see: when Briesa support views your agency it is read-only, for an hour at most and with a reason; every page says so, and your owners see each view.

Operations and compliance, every page in the demo

Released: version 0.7, 9 September 2026. Compliance.

Every page, dialog and write of the first three phases now works in the demo agency: the foundation, operations and compliance. It runs on the demo’s own data while the live database is wired underneath it, and every write leaves an entry in the audit log.

• An audit entry on every write: who, what and when, in the same place for every page.
• Summaries written from the records: the policy draft, the gap report and the weekly briefing are drawn from what is on file until a model is wired, and each says it is not legal advice.
• The sidebar shows what shipped: the groups that are built, with Insights beside them.

Sign-in, on its own

Released: version 0.6, 9 September 2026. Platform.

Signing in moves to its own address, separate from the workspace, and the screens gain the building blocks the next pages are made of.

• Sign-in screens of their own: signing in, creating an account and resetting a password, on the sign-in address.
• Clearer controls: the sign-in form checks an address as it is typed, and the light theme’s colours were corrected.
• The pieces pages are built from: tables with paging, charts, maps, a date picker, file cards and status screens.

Properties and contacts as profiles

Released: version 0.5, 9 September 2026. Product.

A property and a contact now open as a profile, with what matters about them beside the record rather than behind another click.

• The property page: its engagement, parties and compliance in a sidebar, with the record’s tabs beside them.
• The contact page: details, a description and AML in a sidebar, with edit at the top.
• Lists and grids: properties as a list or a grid, and contacts filtered by role.
• Charts on the dashboard: the sales pipeline and the year’s intake under the numbers.

The workspace takes shape

Released: version 0.3, 6 September 2026. Product.

The workspace’s main pages get their layout, and the shell gets a tablet and a phone layout of its own.

• Before an organisation: an invite code can be entered while waiting, and a new organisation asks its name, address and product first.
• Records you can work: properties searched, filtered, created, edited, archived and given parties; contacts added and edited from their list.
• Tasks and the calendar: tasks as a list or a board with cards dragged between lanes, and the calendar by month, week or day.
• Your account: account settings, licence and CPD, and reporting a bug, as dialogs from the account menu.
• Every dialog is a link: a dialog rides in the address, so a reload keeps it and the back button closes it.
• Three widths: the shell draws its own tablet and phone layouts.

The first workspace

Released: version 0.2, 5 September 2026. Platform.

The first build of the workspace: its shell, its first pages over the demo agency, and the screens that come before somebody belongs to an organisation.

• The shell: the sidebar, the header and the page, in light and dark.
• Before an organisation: choose one, create one, or wait to be invited.
