Changelog

What changed, and when.

Every release of Pascal Personal, Pascal Business and the desktop edition, newest first. Cloud ledgers update themselves; desktop tells you when a new version is ready.

v1.8

Business Desktop and exportable audit trails

  • NewBusiness Desktop for macOS and Windows: one database per client, all data saved on your own hardware, offline.
  • NewThe audit trail (who set each label, when and why) can be exported alongside the ledger to Excel and QuickBooks.
  • ImprovedSwitching client workspaces from the command palette is instant; nothing bleeds across.
v1.7

Guided review and bulk approval

  • NewGuided review walks untagged transactions oldest first. Next to review jumps straight to the next open one.
  • NewApprove labels in bulk, or set a confidence threshold above which labels post themselves.
  • ImprovedManual and confirmed labels are protected: rules and the model only touch what is still untagged.
  • FixedThe inspector kept the previous confidence bar for a moment after stepping to another transaction.
v1.6

Ask in plain language

  • NewPress ⌘K and type a sentence. Pascal turns it into a query over the fields that exist in your ledger and shows the query it built.
  • NewHand-written queries: amount ranges, relative dates, tags, wildcards and AND / OR / NOT.
  • ImprovedSearch results group by payee with the number of charges and the total.
v1.5

Transfer candidates and attached fees

  • NewEqual and opposite amounts between your own accounts within three days surface as transfer candidates.
  • NewA fee charged for a move is attached to the transfer group and reported as a bank fee, never as spend.
  • FixedCard settlements imported from two statements could show up as a candidate twice.
v1.4

Insights

  • NewRecurring charges, unusual charges, fees against last month and possible transfers, refreshed whenever the ledger changes.
  • ImprovedInsights are review only: they surface things and never edit the books.
v1.3

Pascal Business

  • NewRun several companies, or client workspaces, from one place, with a net position across all of them on one dashboard.
  • NewReview queues and roles for preparers and reviewers. Nothing posts until someone approves it.
  • NewJournal and bank exports for QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Desktop.
v1.2

Desktop for macOS and Windows

  • NewPersonal Desktop saves everything locally in a database on your own disk and works offline.
  • ImprovedOnly anonymised transaction descriptions are sent to the AI model, in both editions. Balances, account numbers and files never leave your computer.
v1.1

Nine more statement formats

  • NewOFX, QFX, QIF, JSON and HTML statements, alongside PDF, CSV and XLSX. Fourteen formats in all.
  • ImprovedRows stream in as they are read, and any row can be skipped before it becomes a posting.
  • FixedRe-importing a PDF statement with a changed page order created duplicate candidates.
v1.0

Pascal Personal

  • NewThe canvas: columns are your accounts, then everyone you pay; rows are days.
  • NewA double-entry ledger that always balances, with one tax-treatment category per transaction and who set it.
  • NewFree for one ledger, fully encrypted in transit and at rest, one tenant per ledger.
