Changelog

A timeline of new features, improvements, and fixes shipped to saasvaluation.io.

update

Faster AI risk auto-discovery

  • Auto-discover now fills the calculator in 2–5 seconds instead of 10–15. The Playwright crawler keeps a browser warm in the background instead of cold-starting on every request, skips waiting for analytics traffic to go idle, and blocks images, fonts, and stylesheets it doesn't need.
  • The form populates the moment the AI classification is back — the chat narration fast-forwards instead of holding up the result.

AI Replacement Risk Calculator

  • +New /ai-risk-calculator page that scores how exposed a SaaS product is to general-purpose AI substitution (0–100 with low / elevated / critical bands).
  • +Auto-discover button — paste any SaaS URL and we crawl the homepage and let an AI agent estimate every input for you.
  • +"Just an AI Wrapper" tri-state input that cancels the protective effect of being AI-native for thin wrappers (Jasper, Otter.ai, Copy.ai, etc.).
  • +AI Replacement Risk badge on every company profile page, deep-linking back to the calculator pre-filled with the company's inputs.
  • Score breakdown drivers and tailored recommendations explain what the score means and what would move it.
major

Investor Relations news

  • +New Company News page with the latest investor relations announcements across all tracked public SaaS companies.
  • +Filter the news feed by any single company using the searchable dropdown in the top right.
  • +"More news" link on every company profile that opens the full news archive for that company.
  • +Click any headline to read a concise summary, with a direct link to the original source.
update

Company profile improvements
