Shopify vs Wheelhouse

Two releases on 27 August move differently from the API, webhook and MCP work that filled July and August. One retunes the More conservative curves for Last Minute Discount and Far Future Premium — the far-future premium now starts building around 180 days out rather than 365, climbing toward roughly 25% — while moving listings already on that setting to a Custom rule matching the old curve, so live pricing did not change underneath anyone. The other puts aggregate Occupancy, Asking Rate, ADR and Pickup rows at the top of the Portfolio Calendar, following whatever filter or segment is applied.

The outward push has not stopped, but the centre of gravity is returning to the product's own surfaces and the model behind them. Both releases take something that already existed — segment-aware aggregation, the conservative pricing curves — and place it where a revenue manager is already working, at the top of the calendar or inside a default setting. Migrating existing listings onto a Custom rule rather than changing their prices suggests these defaults are now treated as something customers depend on rather than something to iterate freely.

The calendar rows are described as step one of tying pricing strategy to how each day is performing, so further per-date controls or actions taken directly on the calendar are the most likely next move.
