What is Moov?

Moov keeps absorbing the payments plumbing its customers would otherwise build themselves.

Moov is shipping on a steady quarterly API cadence with monthly increments in between, and the recent run has been about rail coverage and merchant-facing control. FedNow support arrived through the instant-bank-credit method with automatic network selection between FedNow and RTP, Google Pay landed earlier for both acceptance and payouts, and surcharging went from launch to test-mode card coverage. The embedding surface has been widening too — resumable onboarding Drops, custom Dashboard roles, fee plan disclosure, user-defined amounts on payment links.

What is Pigment?

Pigment's Agents break out of single applications and start reading your spreadsheets.

The Agents are the story: Modeler and Analyst now launch from the homepage and hold one conversation across multiple Applications, with the Analyst comparing Metrics across them and handling Board search. Days earlier, the Modeler gained the ability to build a Pigment model — data, Blocks, formulas, and Boards — from a dropped XLSX file, with multi-file uploads of PDFs, CSVs, and images. The rest of the run is planning-platform craft: metric diffing, live deployment progress, selective Metric data sync across Test & Deploy environments, and a steady stream of View Template and chart formatting controls.

Moov vs Pigment: editorial side-by-side

6.3

Moov keeps absorbing the payments plumbing its customers would otherwise build themselves.

◆ Current state

Moov is shipping on a steady quarterly API cadence with monthly increments in between, and the recent run has been about rail coverage and merchant-facing control. FedNow support arrived through the instant-bank-credit method with automatic network selection between FedNow and RTP, Google Pay landed earlier for both acceptance and payouts, and surcharging went from launch to test-mode card coverage. The embedding surface has been widening too — resumable onboarding Drops, custom Dashboard roles, fee plan disclosure, user-defined amounts on payment links.

◆ Where it's heading

The pattern is consistent: take a decision a platform customer would otherwise have to make and make it Moov's problem. Network selection, surcharge regulatory caps, tipping presets, account connection scoping all follow that shape. Versioning discipline is a visible part of the story, with in-development versions previewed and deprecations announced ahead of the stable cut, which matters for a product whose customers embed it rather than integrate once.

◆ Prediction

Expect the v2026.10.00 cycle to firm up around the in-development changes now surfacing in previews, with the same pattern of a preview period before the stable release rather than a single large cut.

7.5

Pigment's Agents break out of single applications and start reading your spreadsheets.

◆ Current state

The Agents are the story: Modeler and Analyst now launch from the homepage and hold one conversation across multiple Applications, with the Analyst comparing Metrics across them and handling Board search. Days earlier, the Modeler gained the ability to build a Pigment model — data, Blocks, formulas, and Boards — from a dropped XLSX file, with multi-file uploads of PDFs, CSVs, and images. The rest of the run is planning-platform craft: metric diffing, live deployment progress, selective Metric data sync across Test & Deploy environments, and a steady stream of View Template and chart formatting controls.

◆ Where it's heading

Pigment is moving its Agents from assistants scoped to one Application into a workspace-level layer that can see and act across the whole model estate. Pairing that with Excel ingestion targets the actual starting condition of most planning customers, whose current model is a spreadsheet. Meanwhile the environment tooling — deployment visibility and configuration data kept in sync between test and production — reads as a platform maturing for customers who now treat their Pigment models as software.

◆ Prediction

With Agents workspace-wide and able to construct models from files, the next step is putting them inside the change-management path — proposing model edits that flow through Test & Deploy rather than landing directly. Expect the Analyst's cross-Application reach to extend into scheduled or triggered analysis rather than only chat-initiated questions.
