What is SolidInvoice?

SolidInvoice 3.1 brings custom invoice templates and moves migrations off web requests.

SolidInvoice, the self-hosted invoicing app, shipped 3.1.0, 3.1.1 and 3.1.2 together on 29 October. 3.1.0 adds custom invoice templates and invitation expiry; 3.1.2 fixes the in-app upgrade path by running migrations at startup or as a Helm pre-upgrade job. It follows the 3.0 release in June that brought 2FA, OAuth and Meilisearch search.

What is TaxDome?

TaxDome's fall releases give firm owners a view of every job, and proposals a deadline.

TaxDome's October releases are about firm-wide visibility and tidier records. Owners can group jobs across pipelines, Work Forecaster flags overdue and at-risk jobs, proposals can expire after 1 to 90 days, and email threads can be linked to jobs for every firm. Cleanup banners ask firms to close finished jobs after tax season.

SolidInvoice vs TaxDome: editorial side-by-side

S5.0

SolidInvoice 3.1 brings custom invoice templates and moves migrations off web requests.

◆ Current state

SolidInvoice, the self-hosted invoicing app, shipped 3.1.0, 3.1.1 and 3.1.2 together on 29 October. 3.1.0 adds custom invoice templates and invitation expiry; 3.1.2 fixes the in-app upgrade path by running migrations at startup or as a Helm pre-upgrade job. It follows the 3.0 release in June that brought 2FA, OAuth and Meilisearch search.

◆ Where it's heading

After 3.0's identity and platform work, 3.1 turns to customization and operations, with Helm-based deployment now a supported path. Fixes are tagged with detailed commit-level notes, some co-authored with Claude.

◆ Prediction

Expect more 3.1.x fixes around upgrades and deployment, given two fix releases shipped alongside 3.1.0.

5.0

TaxDome's fall releases give firm owners a view of every job, and proposals a deadline.

◆ Current state

TaxDome's October releases are about firm-wide visibility and tidier records. Owners can group jobs across pipelines, Work Forecaster flags overdue and at-risk jobs, proposals can expire after 1 to 90 days, and email threads can be linked to jobs for every firm. Cleanup banners ask firms to close finished jobs after tax season.

◆ Where it's heading

After the March AI document matching, the product has turned to the managing partner's view: how much work is in flight, what is late, and where client emails and proposals sit. The work is incremental and aimed at firms running many pipelines. A November 4 webinar on AI for the 2027 tax season hints at the next AI release.

◆ Prediction

Expect an AI announcement at or after the November 4 webinar, which TaxDome itself teased. The entries do not say what it covers.
