Outlook and guidance
Q4 product release targets core users with faster load times, a simpler interface and AI-supported customer analysis; five vertical solutions are planned for Q4 release and rollout during 2027.
Focused additions to direct sales and marketing are intended to support organic growth; mature sales investments can take 12–18 months to recoup.
ARR growth in 2027 is an ambition, not formal guidance; new long-term financial goals are planned with the FY 2026 year-end report, scheduled for 17 February 2027.
