What is Moov?
Moov's issuing and invoicing APIs fill out as platforms take over more of the payments work.
Moov ships on a versioned API train, with v2026.10.00 still in development. Since September it has added self-serve fixes for ACH authorization errors, a taxable flag in the product catalog, a spending card activity endpoint, invoice reminders and custom invoice numbers, and issuing simulation endpoints for test mode. The summer added FedNow, payout fees and fee plan reassignment.
What is Pigment?
Pigment's agent push has paused while the planning surface around it gets systematized.
Pigment's recent releases split into two streams. The agent stream peaked in late July when Agents moved to the homepage and began working across multiple Applications in a single conversation. Everything since has been platform craft: chart formatting and readability, View Templates, live deployment progress, metric difference detection, and Metric data kept in sync across environments. Three newer undated entries continue that pattern with per-series chart control, wider View Template options, and a centralized usage overview spanning Workspaces.
Moov vs Pigment: editorial side-by-side
Moov
5.0FINANCE
Moov's issuing and invoicing APIs fill out as platforms take over more of the payments work.
◆ Current state
Moov ships on a versioned API train, with v2026.10.00 still in development. Since September it has added self-serve fixes for ACH authorization errors, a taxable flag in the product catalog, a spending card activity endpoint, invoice reminders and custom invoice numbers, and issuing simulation endpoints for test mode. The summer added FedNow, payout fees and fee plan reassignment.
◆ Where it's heading
The direction is self-service for platforms that embed payments: fixing ACH errors without support, running card issuing in test mode, sending invoice reminders automatically. Fee mechanics still matter, but recent releases have widened issuing and invoicing. The API usually gets each capability first, with the Dashboard following.
◆ Prediction
Expect v2026.10.00 to leave development with the ACH self-serve and isTaxable changes, and the Dashboard to pick up more issuing views. The entries give no date for that release.
Pigment
2.5FINANCE
Pigment's agent push has paused while the planning surface around it gets systematized.
◆ Current state
Pigment's recent releases split into two streams. The agent stream peaked in late July when Agents moved to the homepage and began working across multiple Applications in a single conversation. Everything since has been platform craft: chart formatting and readability, View Templates, live deployment progress, metric difference detection, and Metric data kept in sync across environments. Three newer undated entries continue that pattern with per-series chart control, wider View Template options, and a centralized usage overview spanning Workspaces.
◆ Where it's heading
Agent capability has slowed while the surrounding model surface is being made consistent. Templates are becoming the unit of that consistency, with a Simple View Template now settable as the default for all new Views in an Application and duplicable across Applications. Environment management is maturing in parallel through deployment progress and connected Metric data that travels with a deployment and cannot be edited downstream. The new Workspace usage overview points somewhere different again, at administrators of multi-workspace estates who need cells, AI credits and storage in one view.
◆ Prediction
Expect the usage overview to grow from warnings into capacity administration, since the limits it reports against already exist. The agent stream is the one to watch for a resumption, and the open question the cross-Application work raised is governance over what an agent may reach.
