AppControl evolves continuously. We deliver improvements on a regular cadence while maintaining stability for enterprise environments.
Release Cadence
AppControl follows a 4–6 week release cycle.
Rather than fixed calendar dates, we operate a release train model:
New features and improvements are bundled into a release
Each release is shipped once it meets stability and quality criteria
The next release is typically delivered within 4–6 weeks
This approach allows us to:
Fix bugs quickly
Improve features incrementally
Avoid rushed or unstable releases
Versioning Scheme
AppControl uses a simple, transparent versioning model:
Major Release Format:
YYYY.N
Examples:
2026.1
2026.2
2026.3
Where:
YYYY = calendar year
N = sequential release number
Patch Releases
When needed, we deliver patch updates:
YYYY.N.P
Examples:
2026.2.1
2026.2.2
Patch releases:
Contain bug fixes or small stability improvements
Do not introduce major feature changes
May be delivered between regular release cycles
What to Expect in Each Release
Each release typically includes:
Governance improvements
Security or quality enhancements
Bug fixes
Minor feature evolutions
Performance optimizations
Release notes are published with each version.
Stability Commitment
Features are never announced as “released” until they are fully available.
If a feature is not ready for the current release cycle, it moves to the next one — without compromising stability.
Roadmap Transparency
We maintain an evolving roadmap. However:
Roadmap items are directional
Timelines are estimates
We prioritize stability and customer impact over fixed dates
Summary
AppControl is designed to improve steadily — not in large disruptive jumps, but through consistent, high-quality iterations.
