Every change to DeedRead that you can see, dated from the day it went live. Realtors use these reports in front of clients, so this page exists to show what changed and when, in plain words. Nothing here is a plan: an entry appears once the change is on deedread.ca.

A bookmarklet on the listing clipper page reads the listing you already have open and fills the URL and paste field on the report form. realtor.ca and REW block our servers from fetching those pages, so this is how the listing link actually works.
A finished report now switches between Client packet, the default you hand a buyer with offer numbers off, and Realtor prep, which shows opening and walk-away on a briefing card. The public sample, shared links, Vault, compare and the web-page export stay client-safe and never carry those numbers.
When you include the score, the report and the compare view lead with Strong buy, Solid, Caution or High risk, and the number sits underneath as 76 of 100. A two-digit total reads as more precise than a re-run is, and the band is the claim a client should remember.
A report you start from Claude or ChatGPT is now saved to your Vault the same way a report run on the website is. The download link the assistant hands you expires, so the Vault copy is the one to come back to.
DeedRead is now a tool an AI assistant can call, so you can start an analysis from a conversation and collect the report when it is ready. Claude connects with an API key or a sign-in, ChatGPT connects with a sign-in, and the setup steps are on the API docs page.
A file named like a Form B is only treated as one if its contents say so, and an image-only scan is now read with OCR instead of being marked as reviewed. A document check on the report can only go green for a document that was actually read.
The location section, formerly called Access Score, is now named Walkability and covers every address in British Columbia and Ontario, including one taken from the strata documents when there is no listing. It draws on public map and transit data rather than a third-party score.
A report filed in your Vault now carries a short outcome form: what happened to the deal and what the findings changed, with a dollar figure where one applies. Every control is a fixed choice with no free-text box, and the exact consent wording you agreed to is kept with the answer.
The report now draws closing and carrying costs from a maintained set of federal, BC, Ontario and Alberta facts, with municipal detail for Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, Surrey, Toronto and Calgary. Each figure carries the date it was last checked, so a rule that changed this year is not quoted from an older guide.
A toggle in the header switches the public pages and the signed-in workspace between light and dark, following your device setting until you choose. Printing and PDF export are a separate choice, so a dark screen never forces a dark handout.
A new control under the upload area opens the camera, crops each photo to the page, flattens it and cleans it up, then adds it to the upload list as an ordinary file. All of that happens on your device, like every other upload.
A locked PDF now shows a password field in its upload row, and the password is used on your device only to unlock the file for reading. It is never stored, sent or logged, the same contract the document itself has.
A Web page button on the report downloads the finished report as one self-contained HTML file you can host or send, with a built-in question box for the reader. The file is built entirely on your device and carries the report data inside it, so it stays machine-readable.
Your name, brokerage, contact details and logo are now one record on your account, editable from the report page, the Vault and the account page alike. A report opened on another device or from the Vault carries the same branding without re-entering it.
From a finished report, print a card to stand beside your one-sheet at the open house. Visitors who scan it get a short consumer teaser with your contact details, never the report, the score or the offer guidance.
The ROI calculator has its own page at /tools/roi, linked from the main menu, so you can work through what a DeedRead seat is worth on your own numbers before signing up. Signed-in visitors have their inputs kept with their account.
Pick a language from the header and the site, the analysis form and the report view follow, and the report itself is written in that language. English stays the default, so nothing changes for a reader who never touches the picker.
Enter a few facts about a BC strata and the tool says whether it should already hold a current depreciation report under the 2026 and 2027 rules, and what to ask the strata for. No account needed.
