LivePlan vs Moov

Two structural moves anchor the period. In late January, LivePlan launched a fully reimagined plan editor — modern templates, custom themes, real-time collaboration with comments, flexible images/charts/tables, and contextual AI writing — and shipped a beta that lets users import notes, spreadsheets, and research so the AI builds on actual business context. Earlier, the forecast editor was rebuilt with a sleeker layout and inline forecast-vs-actuals comparison, and forecast items can now be organized into groups for clearer revenue/cost rollups.

LivePlan is methodically replacing every legacy editor in the product — first forecasting, then the plan itself — and wiring AI more deeply into each. The reference-files beta is the more telling move: it pulls user context into the model rather than relying on generic templates, which is the only way AI authoring becomes useful for a real lender-facing plan. Together it's a clean shift from "template + spreadsheet" toward "AI co-author with your data."

Expect the reference-files beta to graduate and expand to more file types (PDFs, accounting exports), with deeper agentic suggestions that pull numbers and competitive notes directly into the plan. The forecast and plan editors converging — shared collaboration, shared AI writing — is the next natural step.
