• Browser-based — any device, any OS, no client software
• Multi-user over a network
• Encryption, audit trails, cohort analysis
• Add to Expenses shortcut
• Comprehensive help files
• Full documentation ecosystem on soul-trade.com
And the infrastructure around it:
• Download pages, sales pages, install guides, troubleshooting guide
• PayPal IPN with download tokens
• Platypus Mac installers, Windows PowerShell installers
• Release checklist, build folder guide, etc etc
