Property Search import UX is clearer

Property Search now uses Import Property labeling, a full-screen loading overlay, cancel during long imports, and clears stale results so a new address does not keep showing the previous property.

  • The primary action is labeled Import Property instead of Search property.
  • Long imports show a global loading overlay instead of looking frozen.
  • Cancel Search stops an in-flight import and resets the loading state.
  • Starting a new import clears the previous property facts while the new search runs.
  • The signed-in Property Search page keeps one page title in the shell header.
  • Version bumped to 0.4.58.

Full dashboard first render is faster

The signed-in workspace still has one full dashboard, and its first render now uses fast identity context so production can return the dashboard without waiting on heavier account/profile loading.

  • The dashboard route still renders the full workspace dashboard directly.
  • The separate lightweight link-grid dashboard is not present.
  • The initial response uses the signed-in identity context to avoid Vercel function timeouts.
  • Production verification loaded v0.4.57 with the full dashboard tiles and no gateway timeout.
  • Version bumped to 0.4.57.

Full dashboard loads without blocking on heavy data

The signed-in workspace keeps the full dashboard as the only dashboard surface, while first render no longer blocks on the expensive server data fan-out that caused production timeouts.

  • The lightweight link-grid dashboard remains removed.
  • The full dashboard shell, command search, lifecycle map, setup/readiness sections, and tile layout are the default production experience.
  • Saved-work and integration data no longer block the initial server response.
  • Version bumped to 0.4.56.

One full dashboard for the signed-in workspace

The signed-in workspace now uses the full dashboard as the only dashboard experience, with saved work, pipeline context, command search, readiness, lifecycle, and dashboard tiles together in one place.

  • The lightweight link-grid fallback and dashboard feature flags were removed to avoid split behavior.
  • The dashboard route now renders Ben's full workspace surface directly.
  • Signed-in users see dashboard tiles, command search, lifecycle, readiness, saved work, pipeline movement, and account activity in the same dashboard.
  • Version bumped to 0.4.55.

2026-05-28Release link

Full dashboard default restored after timeout hotfix

The signed-in workspace went back to the full tile dashboard as the default while keeping faster identity-first rendering so production no longer needed the temporary lightweight-only default.

  • Restored the full dashboard UI as the normal signed-in experience.
  • First paint still uses fast identity context instead of blocking on every live-data loader.
  • Incident-only env switches remain for emergency lightweight fallback.
  • Version bumped to 0.4.54.

2026-05-28Release link

Lightweight dashboard default during production timeouts

While the full dashboard route was still timing out in production, the signed-in workspace temporarily defaulted to a lightweight link grid so users could still reach settings and core tools.

  • Full tile dashboard became opt-in during the incident window.
  • Lightweight fallback kept workspace shortcuts reachable under serverless timeouts.
  • Version bumped to 0.4.53.

Dashboard timeout races signed-in context

Portfolio dashboard loading now starts its timeout race earlier so slow signed-in context does not stall the page until Vercel returns a gateway timeout.

  • The dashboard route races full render against a lighter signed-in identity fallback.
  • Timeout fallback can still show your name and workspace shortcuts before the heavy context finishes.
  • Version bumped to 0.4.52.

2026-05-28Release link

Full dashboard back on by default with a better slow-load fallback

The signed-in workspace returned to the full tile dashboard by default and improved the slow-load fallback with clearer copy, all workspace shortcuts, and safer link prefetch behavior.

  • Full dashboard is on by default again with an incident switch for lightweight fallback only.
  • Slow loads show all workspace shortcuts plus Settings instead of a minimal stub.
  • Dashboard loaders use tighter timeouts and cache-only market signals where possible.
  • Version bumped to 0.4.51.

More reliable Google sign-in and dashboard greeting during slow loads

Google sign-in is less likely to fail on the first try, signed-in settings are more stable during slow account loads, and the dashboard shows your real name when the full workspace context is still loading.

  • Google sign-in no longer races PKCE cookie setup caused by link prefetch hitting the OAuth start route early.
  • Settings routes no longer crash when signed-in account or profile context is slow or partially unavailable.
  • Portfolio dashboard fallback reads your name and avatar from the signed-in session instead of a generic placeholder when backend context is slow or unavailable.
  • Recent production hardening also includes faster dashboard data loading (parallel fetches, cache-only market signals) and longer serverless timeouts for auth and scheduled jobs.
  • Version bumped to 0.4.50.

Blog companion, inline calculators, richer articles, and Academy dashboard progression

Blog posts now carry more of the investor workflow directly in the article: inline calculators, stronger visual blocks, narration/explanation companion mode, and dashboard Academy progression that keeps learning tied to daily deal work.

  • Relevant blog posts can embed compact BRRRR, cash-flow, and rehab-estimator calculators so readers can test assumptions without leaving the article.
  • Articles now render generated briefs, pull quotes, process diagrams, checklists, and strategy cards to make long educational content easier to scan.
  • Blog companion mode adds listen/explain controls, AI explanation handoff, and local reading-position resume behavior across public and signed-in blog pages.
  • The signed-in dashboard now surfaces Academy progression with current path, recent lessons, next training, certification progress, and Pro-personalized recommendations.

Going forward

This page should stay focused on customer-facing product movement: the workflows that got stronger, the pages investors can use, and the improvements that change how PocketSquad feels in day-to-day use.
