What is Adapty?

Adapty lets one paywall flow personalise itself with the app's own user data

Adapty has finished moving customers onto one builder: the old Paywall and Onboarding Builders were deprecated on October 1 and Paywalls now live inside Flows & Paywalls. Since then it added a yearly plan sold as 12 monthly payments on native iOS, and the November 9 roundup brings custom tags, where the app passes a value through the SDK and any text in a flow can display it, alongside flow funnels and screen animations.

What is TaxDome?

TaxDome's Tax Summary now explains checks, payment plans and refund tracking for clients

TaxDome's 9 November update lets the Tax Summary in Tax Return Delivery handle non-standard payments: clearer payment method names, new check-by-mail, payment-plan and custom options, vouchers placed next to each payment, refund tracking links and more local taxes. Earlier in November it added task grouping by assignee and search across Firm Templates.

Adapty lets one paywall flow personalise itself with the app's own user data

◆ Current state

Adapty has finished moving customers onto one builder: the old Paywall and Onboarding Builders were deprecated on October 1 and Paywalls now live inside Flows & Paywalls. Since then it added a yearly plan sold as 12 monthly payments on native iOS, and the November 9 roundup brings custom tags, where the app passes a value through the SDK and any text in a flow can display it, alongside flow funnels and screen animations.

◆ Where it's heading

With the migration done, the work has moved to making each flow do more: personalised copy, funnel analytics on flows, and animation. Adapty is turning the paywall builder into a general onboarding and conversion surface, with agent-built flows from August and pricing experiments like the 12-payment yearly plan layered on top.

◆ Prediction

Expect more SDK-fed personalisation and per-screen analytics inside flows, and the 12-payment yearly plan to extend beyond native iOS; the entries give no timeline for either.

TaxDome's Tax Summary now explains checks, payment plans and refund tracking for clients

◆ Current state

TaxDome's 9 November update lets the Tax Summary in Tax Return Delivery handle non-standard payments: clearer payment method names, new check-by-mail, payment-plan and custom options, vouchers placed next to each payment, refund tracking links and more local taxes. Earlier in November it added task grouping by assignee and search across Firm Templates.

◆ Where it's heading

TaxDome is removing the manual explaining that firms do around each return, both inside the firm (who owns which task) and with clients (how and where to pay). Updates are steady, practical workflow work ahead of the 2027 tax season.

◆ Prediction

Expect further Tax Return Delivery and client-facing payment improvements before the 2027 season; the AI announcement teased for the 4 November webinar has not appeared in these entries yet.
