v0.99.3 — New Brand Identity, Tamper-Evident Audit Trail, AI Cost Safeguards

A trust-and-reliability release. Introduces a new brand identity across the platform, a cryptographically tamper-evident audit trail, document virus scanning, AI spend safeguards, and a substantial reliability and accessibility pass on the product creation wizard.

New Brand Identity​

The platform has a refreshed brand identity. All logos, favicons, and the platform badge have been replaced with the new shield mark across the operator, supplier, and verifier portals, the public passport viewer, and shared links.

Tamper-Evident Audit Trail​

Audit log entries are now cryptographically chained, so any retroactive alteration of a record is detectable. A scheduled job verifies the integrity of the chain daily, and battery management system (BMS) telemetry events are recorded on the same chain. This strengthens the evidentiary value of the audit trail for regulators and verifiers.

AI Spend Safeguards​

AI-assisted features now operate under a monthly cost ceiling per account, with a fail-closed safety default and a daily usage rollup. If an account reaches its limit, AI operations stop cleanly rather than continuing to incur cost. This keeps AI usage predictable and within plan limits.

Document Virus Scanning​

Every document uploaded to the platform is now scanned for malware before it is stored. This protects operators, suppliers, and verifiers who download and open evidence documents shared through Traceable.

Hardened Account Invitations​

The invitation and signup flow was tightened: invitations now use real, single-purpose invite links, can be restricted to your organisation's email domain, and the path that previously allowed an orphaned signup has been closed.

Product Creation Wizard Reliability​

A focused reliability pass on the product creation wizard:

  • Create and Continue now reliably lands you on the first step, resolving a timing issue that could occasionally misorder the flow.
  • Typed and autofilled values are preserved when the form re-renders.
  • The category dropdown no longer overflows on smaller screens, and DPP-required fields are sorted first so the most important fields are easiest to find.
  • A pre-submit validation panel and a persistent error indicator make it clear what still needs attention before submitting.

Accessibility and Stability​

  • Form controls across the platform received improved labelling for assistive technologies, and an accessibility check is now enforced automatically on every change.
  • A caching improvement eliminated intermittent errors that could appear under heavy load, making the platform more stable for busy accounts.
  • The public passport viewer now shows a clear empty state for carbon footprint instead of a misleading zero value, and a rare crash when editing a product was fixed.

Privacy and Sharing​

  • A standalone "Where Your Data Is Processed" card makes data residency clear to operators.
  • Cookie consent moved to a managed consent platform for clearer, more compliant cookie handling.
  • Shared links now carry richer preview metadata and a branded preview image.
