Puzzle is an AI-leaning accounting platform whose public changelog has slipped into placeholder entries marked 'internal use only.' The most recent visible feature work landed in March with built-in budgeting plus real-time cash flow, burn, and runway. The deeper history shows steady investment in historical books conversion, ML categorization, and revenue recognition during 2024-early 2025.
