New Year, New Innovations!
Alicia and Dan kick off 2026 by diving into 27 pages of notes from Intuit Connect's Innovation Circle. They break down upcoming changes to bank feeds (including confidence indicators and MasterCard receipt capture), the new payroll agent that handles timesheets via text message, enhanced tax impoundment processes, and Intuit Intelligence's business analytics features. Most innovations are rolling out between spring 2026 and early 2027, with some already appearing in testing.
