- 1.10.301.10.30-release.897Latest
Email: any SMTP provider, as its own card
- AddedSettings > Email gains an "Other SMTP" card beside Zoho, Google Workspace, Office 365 and Resend: name your own server (Brevo, Mailgun, Amazon SES, Postmark or your mail server) with host, port, encryption, username and password, and send a test from the same page.
- 1.10.301.10.30-release.886
Install on Your Server, right inside My Licenses
- AddedMy Licenses on hostinvo.dev shows the one-line installer for each active licence, with the key and your activated domain filled in, a Copy Command button, the package download and the installation guide. The same command still arrives by email.
- FixedThe changelog page and What's New showed nothing on hosted and freshly packaged installs: the release build left the notes file unreadable to the web server.
- 1.10.301.10.30-release.883
A contact form that reaches us, a blog, and claims we can stand behind
- AddedThe contact page's form now delivers: every message lands in Platform > Leads with its status and notes, rings the owner's bell and is emailed to the administrators. Cloudflare Turnstile can guard it like the other forms.
- AddedThe blog opens with five articles in English and Arabic (WHMCS alternative, provisioning automation, ZATCA e-invoicing, self-hosted vs SaaS, migrating from WHMCS), with an RSS feed.
- Improvedhostinvo.dev states facts only: invented customer counts and uptime figures are gone, the hero preview is labelled a demo, the guides link to the documentation that covers them, and the API reference lists the routes that exist with API-key authentication.
- FixedQuick Start and the installer say the free trial starts on its own; no licence key is needed to begin.
- ImprovedTerms, Privacy and Cookie policies describe the platform as it is: hosted or self-hosted, PayPal or bank transfer, Hostinvo AI on our own servers, Turnstile, and cookies that load only with consent.
- 1.10.301.10.30-release.880
Hostinvo AI included in every plan; the AI story on the site
- AddedEvery licence plan now includes monthly Hostinvo AI requests: 25 on the free trial, 150 on New Join, 500 on Growth, 1,500 on Professional (Enterprise by agreement). Plans the owner had left at 0 get these numbers; plans with their own numbers keep them.
- Addedhostinvo.dev explains Hostinvo AI on the home and features pages, and the pricing section answers the common questions (trial, AI allowance, credit packs, self-hosting, cancelling).
- FixedThe trial card states the trial length the platform actually runs, in both languages.
- 1.10.301.10.30-release.877

- SecurityThe hosted platform now connects to PostgreSQL as a plain role, so the tenant row-level security policies are enforced by the database itself (self-hosted installs: a one-command switch, documented).
