What is Double?

Double restructures AI pricing with a 93%-cheaper Standard tier, making Ask Double viable at full-book scale

Double is an AI-first accounting platform built for accounting firms managing multiple clients. Over the past two months the product has aggressively extended its Ask Double AI assistant — building workpapers, importing accruals, managing metrics, routing bank transactions from raw PDFs, and now auto-routing queries across a three-tier model stack. The Sep 10 model restructuring is the culmination: with a Standard tier 93% cheaper than Expert and an Auto mode that routes per-query complexity, Double has shifted AI accounting from a premium add-on into an economically viable default across every client account. The interactive financial statement suite — P&L, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow — is now complete.

What is Logseq?

Logseq ships its first 2.0 beta, betting its future on a database backend.

Logseq spent over a year in a slow beta cadence on the file-based 0.10.x line, shipping mostly Electron bumps, embed fixes, and one security patch. Today it released the first public beta of 2.0, rebuilt on a new database (DB) storage engine, and confirmed the project is splitting into two versions. This is the payoff of a long-promised rewrite.

Double restructures AI pricing with a 93%-cheaper Standard tier, making Ask Double viable at full-book scale

◆ Current state

Double is an AI-first accounting platform built for accounting firms managing multiple clients. Over the past two months the product has aggressively extended its Ask Double AI assistant — building workpapers, importing accruals, managing metrics, routing bank transactions from raw PDFs, and now auto-routing queries across a three-tier model stack. The Sep 10 model restructuring is the culmination: with a Standard tier 93% cheaper than Expert and an Auto mode that routes per-query complexity, Double has shifted AI accounting from a premium add-on into an economically viable default across every client account. The interactive financial statement suite — P&L, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow — is now complete.

◆ Where it's heading

Double is building toward a full AI-agent accounting platform, not just a chat interface bolted onto bookkeeping software. The AI Agents private beta (automating recurring tasks on a schedule or event trigger), the MCP/API surface for programmatic control, and the Connections feature (reaching into Slack, Notion, HubSpot) all point to Double becoming an orchestration layer for accounting firms. The model pricing restructure signals that Ask Double is expected to run on virtually every client action, with human review reserved for exceptions rather than the default. The direction is clear: make AI the primary work surface and treat the accounting firm's judgment as the final gate.

◆ Prediction

The next move is most likely graduating the AI Agents beta to general availability — converting scheduled automation and event-trigger workflows from a differentiated beta into a standard tier feature. Expansion of the Connections library beyond Slack, Notion, and HubSpot is also probable, since cross-tool context is a prerequisite for agents to make decisions autonomously.

3.8

Logseq ships its first 2.0 beta, betting its future on a database backend.

◆ Current state

Logseq spent over a year in a slow beta cadence on the file-based 0.10.x line, shipping mostly Electron bumps, embed fixes, and one security patch. Today it released the first public beta of 2.0, rebuilt on a new database (DB) storage engine, and confirmed the project is splitting into two versions. This is the payoff of a long-promised rewrite.

◆ Where it's heading

The DB rewrite moves Logseq off Markdown-file storage toward a database model, the prerequisite for the faster queries, reliable sync, and multi-device support the file-based app has struggled to deliver. Expect the 0.10.x line to slide into maintenance while 2.0 stabilizes. The formal split into two versions signals Logseq intends to keep supporting local Markdown graphs rather than force-migrate everyone.

◆ Prediction

Near-term releases will be rapid 2.0.x betas hardening the DB engine and the Markdown-to-DB migration path; a stable 2.0 hinges on how cleanly existing graphs import.
