Product Updates
Every HAQQ release, newest first — what shipped in eFirm, in HAQQ Legal AI, on mobile, and across the platform.
Releases are numbered and dated. A version number covers the platform as a whole, so one release usually spans several products: an eFirm financial change, a chat change on the web app and a mobile change can all carry the same number. The section titles inside each release say which product a change belongs to.
Fifteen numbered releases are recorded here, from the eFirm foundation release in May 2025 to the most recent one. Anything earlier predates the numbered changelog. Pick a version below, or from the sidebar.
VAT Returns, Realization Rate & Archivable Chats
eFirm gained a VAT return workflow, per-client VAT treatments, browser PDF export for every financial report, and the Realization Rate report - plus a Drive-style Files view with file history and a single settings hub. A dedicated security pass closed several access and link-expiry gaps, and the Budgets module was retired. HAQQ AI can now archive and restore chats on web and mobile, Projects was redesigned, sign-in on web and mobile moved to one-time codes, and the mobile app is roughly half its previous size.
