Platform pivot: AI-led intelligent negotiations

productpricingpositioning
  • Fire Mission repositioned as an AI-led business negotiations platform. Each org brings its own AI, trained on its own contracts and policies. A neutral AI mediator proposes the deal — neither side ever sees the other's internal positions.
  • New negotiation session lifecycle: Initiate → Brief (private, per org) → Mediate (neutral AI proposal) → Validate (each org checks the proposal) → Agreed or next round.
  • Pricing renamed and reframed around deal cost vs. attorney hours: Starter (free trial, 3 sessions), Negotiate ($99/mo, unlimited), Deal Room ($299/mo, SSO + multi-persona), Enterprise (custom, on-prem, HIPAA BAA).
  • Homepage rewritten for the negotiations pivot: new hero, IP-protection explainer, 4-step how-it-works, 6 use-case cards (vendor agreements, partnership terms, SLA, licensing, procurement, employment), pricing snapshot.
  • Pricing page ROI table replaced with deal cost comparison vs. traditional legal engagement rates ($350–$500/hr US 2025 averages).
  • llms.txt fully rewritten to accurately describe the negotiations platform, session lifecycle API, security architecture, and tier structure for AI crawlers.
  • Sitemap updated: all live public routes included with current lastmod dates. Stale/placeholder URLs removed.
  • robots.txt updated: Anthropic crawlers re-allowed (provider policy updated). Baidu, Yandex, Bytespider remain blocked.

AI-guided business intelligence positioning & new pricing

productpricingpositioning
  • Fire Mission repositioned as an AI-guided business intelligence platform. Core value: your team verifies AI decisions instead of making them.
  • New tier structure: Pilot (free), Verify ($299/mo flat), Intelligence ($899/mo flat), Command (custom). Flat platform pricing replaces per-seat model — the unit of value is verified decisions, not seats.
  • Pricing framed against fully-loaded analyst headcount cost (HR, Legal, Compliance, InfoSec, Ops) — Fire Mission at Intelligence tier costs less than one month of a compliance analyst.
  • Department AI personas (Legal, HR, InfoSec, Compliance, Operations, IT) established as the primary product direction. Persona grounding on uploaded policy documents coming in next release.
  • Homepage rewritten for executive buyers: ROI table, persona showcase, three-step how-it-works, security foundation brief. Developer integration callout moved below the fold.
  • Header tagline updated: "AI-guided business intelligence." Footer brand line updated to match.

SMB brand & marketing surface refresh

brandmarketing
  • Homepage rewritten for SMB software teams. Tactical / Defense narrative moved to /defense.
  • New public surfaces: /trust, /security, /status, /changelog, /docs.
  • Compliance language hygiene pass: "FedRAMP" claims replaced with "FedRAMP-aligned architecture" / "FedRAMP Moderate readiness on roadmap"; "HIPAA compliant" replaced with "HIPAA-ready".
  • Header IA simplified: Product, Pricing, Docs, Defense, Sign in, Get started.

Self-serve signup, public pricing & Shift4 billing

billingsignup
  • Self-serve signup via Google and GitHub OAuth; unified /signup route picks the best-available channel.
  • PCI SAQ-A subscription billing via Shift4 iframe tokenization; webhook handlers race-safe idempotent under pg_advisory_xact_lock.
  • Free-tier monthly call cap enforced server-side at the gateway with a 429 monthly_cap_exceeded envelope.
  • Tactical aliases (RECON / Asymmetric Ops / Full Spectrum) preserved as 1:1 aliases of Free / Pro / Team for backward compatibility.
