Changelog

What's changed in BillSplain, most recent first.

July 26, 2026

  • Added one-click email unsubscribe — no login required.
  • Fixed a bug where a slow (but valid) sign-in could strand you on an error screen instead of taking you to your dashboard.
  • Fixed a backend bug that could wipe out a bill's AI-written summary during routine updates.
  • Fixed a bug where regenerating a bill's "call your rep" content could overwrite that bill's recommended action.
  • Re-scored bill matches against your full bill history — a hidden cap meant matching had only been checking the first ~1,000 bills per jurisdiction.

  • www.trybillsplain.com now loads without a browser certificate warning.

July 24, 2026

  • Homepage now previews every alert type we send, including what's coming next.
  • Fixed the onboarding tour incorrectly replaying on shared devices or after re-signup.
  • Dashboard no longer shows a false "Building Your Bill Feed" screen to returning users who already have matches.

July 18, 2026

  • Bill alert emails are now going out — you'll be notified the same day when a bill affecting your business changes.
  • Bill status alerts now fire only on genuine status changes.
  • Pricing page rewritten: honest "Upgrade to Pro" copy, free tier raised to 5 analyses a month, added a monthly/annual toggle, and the Enterprise plan no longer lists unbuilt features.
  • Added payment-failed and credit-overage-warning emails.
  • Nav links now show on every page except mid-signup.

July 12, 2026
