Readiness roadmap
BusinessIntents is a young product. Rather than describe every solution as finished, we publish how much of the expected functionality is already in the standard product, what state that puts the solution in, and the month in which we plan to call it fully ready.
The figures are reviewed by the product team and updated as waves of work ship. If something you depend on is in the "coming next" column, tell us: it helps us order the work.
Five solutions
Open a solution to see what it is for; the list under each card is what still stands between it and the "fully ready" band.
The main workflows run end to end and are used on Standard; the listed gaps are being closed in order.
Out of scope. Point of sale, cash-register shifts and loyalty are not part of this solution; it covers back-office retail.

Every solution is assembled from these areas. The percentage is how much of what a business typically expects from that area is already in the standard product.

Reading the numbers
For each functional area we list the capabilities a business typically uses in that area and mark which of them the standard product covers today. The area percentage is that share. A solution's percentage is the weighted average of its areas, with the areas it is built around counted twice.
That the solution covers what a business of its kind typically expects, end to end, in the standard product. It does not mean that every imaginable feature exists: areas the solution deliberately leaves out, such as a point-of-sale till in Retail, stay out of scope and are stated on the card.
Yes. "Early access" means the main workflows already run end to end and are used by Standard customers; the gaps are the ones listed. The free demo shows the current state on sample data, and the Standard subscription includes every update as it ships.
They may. Dates reflect the current plan and the order in which we close the gaps. When a date changes, the card changes with it and the "last reviewed" stamp is updated; we do not quietly reset the clock.
On the product updates page, and in the per-area "works today" column above, which is refreshed at each review.
Shape the order of work
Tell us which workflow matters most to you. Gaps requested by real businesses are scheduled ahead of the rest, and Custom work can bridge the time until the standard product catches up.
