Changelog
The latest improvements, fixes, and new features in PostingPal.
- Improved
Clearer split: staff vs. posted employees
Organizations now have two distinct roles. Staff (admins + coordinators) are your own people on paid seats, with one tabbed page to invite them. Posted employees are users who choose to share one of their personal inventories with you — they don't consume a seat. Org admins can also send a polite "request access" email to a posted employee from the same screen, and each share now has its own toggle for whether the organization can export it.
- New
Organization plans & self-serve billing
Organizations can now subscribe directly from the app: Starter ($99/mo, up to 25 members and 2 coordinators), Team ($299/mo, up to 100 members and 5 coordinators), Department ($699/mo, up to 300 members and 15 coordinators), or Enterprise (contact sales). Yearly billing saves two months. Org admins see a live billing card on the Coordinator dashboard with current plan, usage bars, and a one-tap link to the Stripe billing portal.
- New
Master roster CSV
Coordinators can now download the full member roster of an organization as a CSV — respects the active search and departure-window filters, and includes posting destination, dates, item counts, replacement value, and damaged/missing/unchecked-arrival flags. One click on the Coordinator dashboard.
- New
Coordinator dashboard
The Coordinator page now opens on a live dashboard: org-wide totals (members, items, replacement value, upcoming departures, damaged/missing, unchecked arrivals), an arrival watchlist, a destinations roll-up, status badges on every row, and a one-tap departure-window filter (1 week, 2 weeks, 3–4 weeks, 1–2 months, 2–4 months, 4 months+, past, no date).
- New
Coordinator exports (CSV & PDF)
Coordinators can now download a read-only CSV or formatted PDF of any member's shared inventory — perfect for claims paperwork, HR files, or relocation handoffs. Each export is recorded in the inventory's audit trail.
- New
Coordinator invites by email
Site admins can now send the coordinator invitation directly from the admin console — provide an email when creating the invite and PostingPal emails the link automatically. A re-send button is available for any pending invite.
- New
Coordinator role for organizations
Enterprises (think government HR, insurance carriers, relocation firms) can now have a Coordinator who sees a read-only roster of inventories that members have explicitly opted in to share. Members keep full control: pick one inventory at invite time and revoke access anytime from My Account. Every coordinator view is logged in the inventory's audit trail.
- Improved
Shorter, sharper landing page
Trimmed the home page roughly in half: tighter hero copy, a single consolidated feature list (now including the public sale page), one slim closing CTA, and clearer attribution — built by a Foreign Service officer and spouse.
- Improved
One-tap claim from arrival check
When you finish an arrival checklist with damaged items, the "File insurance claim" button now opens the claim flow pre-filled with just those items — damage descriptions and photos already attached. Review and submit, no double entry.
- New
Per-leg arrival checklist with damage capture
Tap a shipment leg in Post-arrival to open a checklist of every item tagged to it. Mark each one as Received OK, Damaged, or Missing. Damaged items prompt for a quick description and photo evidence (camera or upload) that flow straight into an insurance claim.
- Improved
Smarter shipment leg tracking
The posting form now only shows shipment legs you actually use (hand carry, air, sea, diplomatic pouch), with a quick "+ Add shipment leg" picker and suggested arrival dates based on your departure (sea +45 days, air +7, pouch +14, hand carry same day).
- New
Start the arrival checklist anytime
A new "Start arrival checklist now" button on the dashboard lets you unlock the post-arrival inventory check manually — handy if your shipment lands early or your departure date isn't set.
- Removed
Removed unused "Arrival date" field
The single arrival date on the posting form wasn't used anywhere — the per-leg expected arrival dates do all the work. One less field to fill in.
- New
Post-arrival inventory check
After your shipment lands, tick off each item as Received OK, Damaged or Missing — grouped by leg (hand carry, air, sea, diplomatic pouch). Issues flow straight into an insurance claim.
- New
Expected arrival dates by shipment
Set an expected arrival date per leg (air, sea, hand carry, diplomatic pouch). The dashboard shows a friendly countdown for each.
- Improved
Sale visibility tips
The sale page now includes a short sharing playbook — city Facebook groups, WhatsApp chats, mission classifieds, diplomatic community channels — to help your listings move faster before departure.
- Improved
Account menu on the dashboard
Tapping your avatar on the dashboard now opens a quick menu with Account, Sign out and language — instead of jumping straight to the account page.
- Improved
Smarter item detection
Our AI is better at recognizing what's in your photos — more accurate categories, descriptions and make/model on the first try.
- Fixed
More accurate used-item values
Fixed how we estimate the current value of used items so your totals better reflect real resale prices.
- Improved
Tighter footer & easier navigation
The site footer now surfaces What's new, Contact and the essentials in one tidy row — fewer clicks to find what you need.
- Fixed
Security hardening
Closed a couple of backend issues found by our security scan — tighter checks on invitation emails and on internal maintenance jobs.
- New

FAQ starts with the basics
"What is PostingPal?" is now the first question in the FAQ, with a clear link to the changelog at the bottom.
- Improved
Cleaner sale page
The public sale page got a modern refresh with a live activity dot, clearer stats, and a friendlier toggle to publish or pause it.
- New
Insurance-claim PDF
Plus users can now download a ready-to-submit PDF with photos, descriptions, values and totals — straight to your insurer or BGRS/Sirva.
- New
Annual refresh reminder
Once a year, we'll email you to update values, add new purchases and remove what you've sold. Mark each item as refreshed in one tap.
- New
Two-factor authentication
Add an extra layer of security from Account → Security using an authenticator app like 1Password, Authy or Google Authenticator.
- Improved
Spreadsheet import
Bring in your existing inventory from a CSV. The columns match the export format, so you can export, edit, and re-import in seconds.
- New
Share with your spouse
Invite your partner to view or co-edit the inventory. Great for relocations where both of you are packing different rooms.
- New
AI ad copy and price suggestions
For items tagged "for sale", the AI can write a short, honest description and suggest a price tuned to your local market.
- New
Install PostingPal like an app
Add PostingPal to your home screen on iOS or Android and launch it full-screen, just like a native app.
