The panel's verdict
Hyperline, a billing platform from Hyperline SAS, scores best on the subscription engine, 6 to 7, and collections and dunning, 6 at min and max: recurring, usage-based and hybrid pricing, CPQ quotes with e-signature and multi-currency billing are named, and dunning sequences, retries and reconciliation run across Stripe, GoCardless, Mollie and Airwallex. Revenue and handoff scores 6 to 7 on a revenue-recognition module, accounting integrations to Pennylane, Exact Online and Rillet, and open APIs with webhooks. Tax handling scores 0 at min and max, with no public information on cross-border VAT, reverse charge or US sales tax; invoicing compliance scores 3 at min and max, as the terms cap invoice access at a rolling twelve months and put legal archiving on the client. Sovereignty scores 5: French entity, platform hosted on EU servers, no named infrastructure provider. The one-point spreads, on the subscription engine and revenue handoff, turn on how far judges credited named features despite undocumented proration and trials. Pricing transparency scores 5: Launch at $299/month + 0.7% of revenue processed; Growth and Scale, Custom Pricing on request.
Speaks for it
- The subscription engine names recurring, usage-based and hybrid pricing, CPQ quotes with e-signature and multi-currency billing.
- Dunning sequences, automatic retries and reconciliation are described as running on their own across named providers Stripe, GoCardless, Mollie and Airwallex.
- A revenue-recognition module, accounting integrations to Pennylane, Exact Online and Rillet, CRM links to HubSpot, Salesforce and Attio, and open APIs with real-time webhooks are all named.
- Launch is published in full — $299/month + 0.7% of revenue processed, up to $2M in annual revenue and 100 active subscriptions — with a thirty-day penalty-free exit if fees change.
- The contract runs under French law with the platform hosted on servers located in the European Union and a data processing addendum attached.
Held against it
- Tax handling scored 0: we found no public information on VAT rates by customer country, reverse charge with VAT ID validation, One-Stop-Shop reporting or US sales tax.
- Invoicing compliance scored 3: invoice access is capped at a rolling twelve months, long-term retention and legal archiving are exclusively the client's, and we found no public information on sequential numbering, credit notes or structured e-invoices such as XRechnung, ZUGFeRD and Peppol.
- Growth and Scale are 'Custom Pricing on request' and the add-on modules carry no public price, so above the $2M Launch cap the annual cost is not computable from public pages.
- We found no public information on proration, trials, or customers changing or cancelling their own subscription — the hosted portal covers invoice and billing-information access only.
- No ISO 27001 or SOC 2 certification is stated, the platform's infrastructure provider is not named, and the public website is hosted by Vercel Inc. in Covina, California.
Best for
- You run a subscription or usage-based SaaS and want CPQ quotes with e-signature, hybrid pricing and multi-currency billing handled by the engine rather than a custom build.
- You bill up to $2M in annual revenue and want a computable price before signing: $299/month + 0.7% of revenue processed, up to 100 active subscriptions.
- You want dunning sequences, retries and reconciliation to run on their own across several payment providers, so your team only picks up accounts that need a human.
- You want a French contracting entity under French law, platform hosting on servers in the European Union, and a data processing addendum attached to the contract.
Avoid if
- You sell across borders and need the product to apply VAT by customer country, reverse charge or One-Stop-Shop reporting — tax handling scored 0 and we found no public information on any of it.
- You face audit or e-invoicing mandates: the terms cap invoice access at a rolling twelve months, put long-term retention and legal archiving exclusively on you, and we found no public information on sequential numbering, credit notes or structured formats such as XRechnung, ZUGFeRD and Peppol.
- You are above $2M in annual revenue and need to compute your annual cost before committing — Growth and Scale are 'Custom Pricing on request' and the add-on modules carry no public price.
- Your exit plan depends on exporting subscriptions and stored payment details — the published migration record covers 300+ moves in from Chargebee and Stripe Billing, and invoice access is capped at a rolling twelve months.

Plans, pricing models & subscription lifecycle
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
How the product models what is sold and to whom: plans, add-ons and price points, trials, upgrades and downgrades with proration, usage-based and seat-based pricing, contract terms and renewals, quotes, and a self-service portal where the customer changes or cancels their own subscription.
0 — No subscription model; recurring charges are set up by hand per customer or per invoice.
3 — A recurring invoice or a fixed plan that repeats on a schedule, but no proration, no trials, no add-ons and no usage component.
5 — Plans with add-ons and trials, upgrades and downgrades with proration, renewals and cancellations handled by the system, and a customer portal for viewing and changing the subscription.
8 — Usage-based, tiered, volume and seat-based pricing with metering through an API, contracts with minimum terms, ramps and notice periods, quotes that convert into subscriptions, multiple currencies and price books, and the subscription history kept per customer.
10 — The commercial model lives in the product: hybrid pricing (commitments, prepaid credits, overage) without custom code, price changes rolled out to existing customers with grandfathering, entitlements exposed to the selling application, and every change to a subscription versioned and attributed.
The SaaS Founder
Recurring billing, usage-based and hybrid pricing, CPQ quotes with e-signature and multi-currency billing are all on the pricing page, and the terms name Billing, CPQ and Usage modules with a read-and-write API — that covers the usage-based tier I want to add without a custom build. The hosted portal described in the terms lets billed clients access invoices and billing information, but I found no public information on customers changing or cancelling their own subscription there, nor on trials or proration. 2 5
The Finance Lead
Subscriptions and recurring billing, usage-based and hybrid pricing, multi-currency billing and CPQ quotes with e-signature are all on the plan page, a Usage module is named in the terms, and the vendor markets 300+ migrations from Chargebee and Stripe Billing. We found no public information on trials, proration, contract ramps or customers changing their own subscription; the portal the terms describe gives billed clients access to their invoices and billing information. That is clearly a hybrid-pricing engine rather than a repeating invoice, just short of a fully versioned commercial model. 2 5
The Billing Engineer
Subscriptions and recurring billing, usage-based and hybrid pricing, multi-currency billing and CPQ quotes with e-signature are all on the pricing page, and a usage module plus a hosted billing portal appear in the terms. We found no public information on proration, trials, add-ons at the product level, a portal where the customer changes their own subscription, or entitlements the selling application can read — the portal that is documented gives billed clients twelve months of invoice and billing-information access. 2 5
The Service-Business Owner
Subscriptions and recurring billing, usage-based and hybrid pricing, CPQ quotes with e-signature and multi-currency billing are all named, and a hosted portal lets billed clients see their invoices and billing details. We found no public information on trials, proration on upgrades and downgrades, seat-based pricing, or how price changes and grandfathering are handled for existing contracts — the very handling my two hundred maintenance contracts would depend on. That puts it beyond plain recurring invoicing but well short of a full commercial model. 2 5
The Tax Adviser
The pricing page lists subscriptions and recurring billing, CPQ quotes with e-signature, usage-based and hybrid pricing and multi-currency billing, and the contract runs auto-renewal with a thirty-day notice period. The customer-facing portal, however, only lets billed clients view invoices and billing information, and we found no public information on trials, proration on upgrades and downgrades, or customers changing their own subscription. 2 5
The Skeptic
Recurring billing, usage-based and hybrid pricing, CPQ quotes with e-signature and multi-currency billing are all named on the pricing page, and the product carries a Usage module plus a hosted portal for billed clients. What we found no public information on is the lifecycle underneath — proration, trials, upgrades and downgrades — and the portal terms cover viewing invoices and billing information rather than a customer changing or cancelling their own subscription. 2 5
Invoices & e-invoicing compliance
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Whether the invoices the product issues are legally valid where the customer is: mandatory invoice content, sequential numbering, credit notes and cancellations instead of edits, retention and archiving to GoBD, and structured e-invoices (XRechnung, ZUGFeRD/Factur-X, Peppol) for business customers and public bodies.
0 — No invoices; the product charges cards or sends payment requests and the seller writes invoices elsewhere.
3 — PDF invoices from a template, but numbering, mandatory content, corrections and retention are not described.
5 — Invoices with sequential numbering and the mandatory content stated, credit notes and cancellations instead of edits, invoices in several languages and currencies, and a documented archive.
8 — Structured e-invoices to EN 16931 issued as XRechnung or ZUGFeRD/Factur-X and sent through Peppol, GoBD-compliant numbering and unalterable archiving stated, invoice data exportable for a tax audit, and the e-invoicing mandates in named EU countries addressed.
10 — Invoicing that stands up in any audit it may face: e-invoicing to public bodies and businesses in several EU countries with the channels named, clearance and reporting models (France, Italy, Poland) supported where they apply, a Verfahrensdokumentation or equivalent offered, and every invoice traceable to the subscription event that produced it.
The SaaS Founder
Automated invoicing is on the pricing page and the terms speak of invoices issued by the platform under a French société par actions simplifiée, with contract signature to the eIDAS regulation. I found no public information on sequential numbering, mandatory content, credit notes, or structured formats such as XRechnung, ZUGFeRD or Peppol, and the terms make me, the client, responsible for long-term retention and legal archiving, with invoice access capped at a rolling twelve months. 2 5
The Finance Lead
Automated invoicing is on the plan list, the platform issues invoices, and a hosted portal gives billed clients access to invoices for a rolling twelve months. We found no public information on sequential numbering, mandatory invoice content, credit notes, or structured e-invoices such as XRechnung, ZUGFeRD or Peppol, and the terms state the client is exclusively responsible for long-term retention and legal archiving of invoices. The late-payment fee of forty euros per invoice under Article D441-5 of the French Commercial Code is the only French invoicing reference I found, so I would be running my own archive and format validation. 2 5
The Billing Engineer
Automated invoicing and payments is a listed feature, and the terms speak of invoices issued by the platform with a hosted portal giving a rolling twelve months of invoice access. The captured pages describe nothing about sequential numbering, mandatory content, credit notes or cancellations instead of edits, and no structured e-invoice format or archive is documented — in fact the terms make the client exclusively responsible for long-term retention and legal archiving of invoices. 2 5
The Service-Business Owner
Automated invoicing is marketed as a core feature, but the terms only promise invoice access for a rolling twelve months, capped at the contract term, and put "the long-term retention, legal archiving and backup of Client Data and Invoices" exclusively on the client. We found no public information on sequential numbering, mandatory content, credit notes, or structured e-invoices such as XRechnung, ZUGFeRD or Peppol — which is what my public-sector customers demand — nor on GoBD-compliant archiving. 2 5
The Tax Adviser
Invoices are issued automatically from the platform and viewable in a hosted portal, but we found no public information on sequential numbering, mandatory invoice content, credit notes instead of edits, GoBD archiving or structured e-invoices such as XRechnung, ZUGFeRD or Peppol — a silence that matters for a French issuer under the incoming B2B e-invoice mandate. On retention the terms go the other way: invoice access runs for a rolling twelve months, and long-term retention and legal archiving of invoices remain exclusively the client's responsibility. 2 5
The Skeptic
The platform issues and automates invoices, and the terms apply French mechanics: a fixed recovery fee of forty (40) euros per invoice under Article D441-5 and late-payment interest at three times the statutory rate. Everything that makes an invoice stand up in an audit — sequential numbering, mandatory content, credit notes instead of edits, XRechnung, ZUGFeRD or Peppol — is undocumented on the captured pages, and the contract caps invoice access at twelve months while making the client exclusively responsible for legal archiving. 2 5

How this is scored
How the product gets tax right when the seller sells across borders: VAT rates per country and product type, reverse charge for business customers with VAT ID validation (VIES), the EU One-Stop-Shop, US sales tax — or, for a merchant of record, which tax liability it takes on in its contract and which it leaves with the seller.
0 — No tax handling; the seller types the rate on every invoice.
3 — One configurable VAT rate or a manual rate table, with no customer-location logic and no VAT ID check.
5 — Tax rates applied by customer country and status, reverse charge for business customers with a VAT ID field, and tax shown correctly on invoices and in reports.
8 — Automatic VAT per country and product type, VIES validation of VAT IDs, OSS reporting data, evidence of customer location kept, US sales tax through a named engine — or a merchant-of-record contract that states the tax liability it assumes and in which countries.
10 — Tax is discharged and evidenced: filings or filing data for OSS and the countries sold into, rate changes maintained by the vendor with a stated process, tax decisions per invoice explainable, and the division of liability between seller and vendor written into the terms.
The SaaS Founder not rated — no public information
I found no public information on cross-border VAT handling, reverse charge with VAT ID validation, OSS reporting or US sales tax across the pricing, privacy and terms pages I read; the only tax statement is that Hyperline's own fees are exclusive of tax, which speaks to its invoices to me, not to the product's tax engine. For a seller in nine EU countries, that leaves the first thing I care about completely open. 2 3 5
The Finance Lead not rated — no public information
We found no public information on how the product handles cross-border VAT or sales tax — rates by country, reverse charge with VAT-ID validation, One-Stop-Shop reporting data or a US sales tax engine did not come up in the pages we read. The tax statement that does appear concerns Hyperline's own fees being exclusive of tax, which describes the vendor's invoices to its clients rather than the invoices the product issues for mine. 1 2 5
The Billing Engineer not rated — no public information
We found no public information on how the product applies VAT by customer country or product type, reverse charge with VAT ID validation, the EU One-Stop-Shop, or US sales tax. The only tax statement in the captured terms is that Hyperline's own fees are exclusive of tax and the client pays applicable taxes, which concerns the vendor's pricing rather than the product's tax handling; the pricing and terms pages we read carry no product tax capability. 2 5
The Service-Business Owner not rated — no public information
We found no public information on cross-border VAT handling: no VAT rates by customer country, reverse charge, VAT ID validation, OSS or US sales tax appear on the pricing, privacy, legal-notice or terms pages I read.

The Tax Adviser not rated — no public information
We found no public information on how the product handles cross-border tax: no VAT rates by customer country, no reverse charge with VAT ID validation, no One-Stop-Shop reporting, no US sales tax engine and no merchant-of-record liability allocation. The only tax statement in the captured pages concerns Hyperline's own fees being exclusive of tax. 2 5
The Skeptic not rated — no public information
We found no public information on cross-border VAT handling — no rates per country, reverse charge, VAT ID validation, One-Stop-Shop or US sales tax on the captured pricing and terms pages — and no statement of who carries tax liability on the invoices the platform issues. The only tax wording found concerns Hyperline's own fees being exclusive of tax. 2 5
Payment collection, dunning & portability
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
How invoices turn into money: which payment providers and methods the product works with, SEPA direct-debit mandates, automatic retries and dunning sequences, payment reconciliation, collections handover — and whether the seller can move subscriptions and stored payment details to another provider.
0 — No collection; invoices are sent and payment is chased by hand.
3 — One built-in payment provider with card payments, and failed payments reported but not retried or chased.
5 — Several payment providers or methods including SEPA direct debit with mandates, automatic retries of failed payments, dunning emails with configurable steps, and payments matched to invoices.
8 — Gateway-agnostic collection across named providers, smart retries and card updaters, dunning with escalation and service suspension rules, bank-transfer reconciliation, a handover to a collection agency, and recovery reported.
10 — Collection is portable and measurable: subscriptions and payment tokens importable and exportable with a documented migration path, routing across providers per country or method, recovered revenue reported per dunning step, and no lock-in to the vendor's own payment service stated in the terms.
The SaaS Founder
The pricing page promises dunning and collections, and the product copy says dunning sequences, retries and reconciliation run on their own — exactly the failed-card recovery I need — with Stripe, GoCardless, Mollie and Airwallex named as integrations. I found no public information on SEPA mandate management, card updaters, escalation rules or a collection-agency handover, nor on an export path for subscriptions and payment tokens; the 300+ migrations from Chargebee and Stripe Billing describe coming in, not leaving. 2 5
The Finance Lead
The accounts-receivable module states that dunning sequences, retries and reconciliation run on their own, and payments run through named providers — Stripe, GoCardless, Mollie and Airwallex — which is the multi-gateway footing I want. We found no public information on SEPA mandates specifically, card updaters, service-suspension rules, handover to a collection agency, or recovered revenue per dunning step. Automated retries and dunning across several named providers meet what I need for collections that stop before a key account, without reaching the measurable-recovery level. 2
The Billing Engineer
Dunning sequences, retries and reconciliation are explicitly described as running on their own, and four named payment providers — Stripe, GoCardless, Mollie and Airwallex — sit in the integrations list. We found no public information on SEPA mandates, card updaters, service-suspension rules or a collection-agency handover, and migration is documented inbound only: 300+ migrations from Chargebee and Stripe Billing, with no stated path for moving subscriptions and payment tokens out again. 2 5
The Service-Business Owner
The accounts-receivable module describes dunning sequences, automatic retries and reconciliation, and the integration list names Stripe, GoCardless, Mollie and Airwallex as payment providers, which is genuinely useful breadth. We found no public information on SEPA direct-debit mandate management, service suspension on non-payment, or a handover to a collection agency, and while a vendor-run service advertises "300+ migrations from Chargebee, Stripe Billing and more", we found no public information on moving subscriptions and stored payment details out again. 2 5
The Tax Adviser
Dunning sequences, retries and reconciliation are described as running on their own in the accounts-receivable module, and collection runs across the named providers Stripe, GoCardless, Mollie and Airwallex. We found no public information on SEPA direct-debit mandate handling, card updaters, service suspension or escalation rules, or handover to a collection agency. 2 5
The Skeptic
Stripe, GoCardless, Mollie and Airwallex are named integrations, and the accounts-receivable module states that dunning sequences, retries and reconciliation run on their own. We found no public information on card updaters, suspension rules, a collection-agency handover, or a documented way out — the migration story is 300-plus moves from Chargebee and Stripe Billing into Hyperline, with nothing on exporting subscriptions or stored payment details to another provider. 2 3 5
Revenue reporting & accounting handoff

What finance gets out of billing: MRR, ARR, churn and cohort reporting, revenue recognition and deferred revenue, the export or sync to the accounting system and to DATEV, CRM and data-warehouse integrations, an API and webhooks, and a complete export of customer and subscription data.
0 — No reporting and no export beyond downloading individual invoices.
3 — A revenue overview and a CSV export of invoices, with no subscription metrics and no accounting integration.
5 — Subscription metrics (MRR, churn) on a dashboard, an export or sync to at least one named accounting tool, and a documented API with webhooks.
8 — Revenue recognition with deferred revenue schedules, a DATEV export or booking-ready journal for the ledger, native CRM and accounting integrations named, MRR movements explainable per customer, and a full data export documented.
10 — Billing is the system of record for revenue: recognition to IFRS 15 / ASC 606 stated, month-end close supported with reconciled reports, data-warehouse sync, audit trail of every financial event, and a complete export of customers, subscriptions and invoices that a successor system can import.
The SaaS Founder
Revenue recognition is a named module, Pennylane, Rillet and Exact Online appear as accounting integrations alongside HubSpot, Salesforce and Attio for CRM, and there are open APIs with real-time webhooks. I found no public information on MRR or churn dashboards, deferred-revenue schedules, a DATEV or booking-ready journal export, or a documented full data export beyond twelve months of invoice access. 2 5
The Finance Lead
A revenue-recognition module and an accounting module are named, integrations cover Pennylane, Exact Online and Rillet on the accounting side plus HubSpot, Attio and Salesforce for CRM, and the terms define an API with read and write alongside real-time webhooks. We found no public information on deferred-revenue schedules, a DATEV or journal export, MRR and churn figures, or a documented full data export. Named accounting integrations and webhooks lift this past a dashboard, but my month still ends in retyping until deferred schedules and a booking-ready journal are shown. 2 5

Who the contracting entity and the parent company are, where customer, invoice and payment data are hosted, and who the subprocessors are (hosting, payment providers, tax engines, email delivery). Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline; billing data is personal and financial at once, so the whole chain counts, not only the database.
0 — Non-EU vendor and contracting entity, hosting unstated, subprocessors unnamed, and no data processing agreement offered.
3 — A privacy policy and a data processing agreement exist, but hosting location is unstated or non-EU and the subprocessors are not listed.
5 — EU hosting available and an EU contracting entity or EU representative, but parts of the chain (tax engine, email, analytics, support) run through non-EU providers without a stated safeguard.
8 — EU hosting on named infrastructure, EU contracting entity, subprocessors listed with their locations, a data processing agreement published, and security certifications (ISO 27001, SOC 2) stated.
10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: European ownership, entity, hosting and every subprocessor, data export and deletion documented, and certifications published with their scope rather than implied.
The SaaS Founder
The contracting entity is a French société par actions simplifiée under French law and the Paris courts, the platform is hosted on servers in the European Union, the privacy policy defaults processing to the EU, and a data processing addendum is attached to the contract. Beyond Google cookies for anonymised statistics I found no public information on a subprocessor list with locations, the AI features expressly rely on unnamed third-party technologies, the legal notice places the public website on Vercel in California, and the security statements are passwords and secure servers — I found no ISO 27001 or SOC 2 stated. 3 4 5

Pricing transparency
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Whether a buyer can compute the real annual cost from public pages alone: platform fee, percentage of billed revenue or per-invoice fees, which modules (revenue recognition, e-invoicing, tax, extra gateways) cost extra, overage above a revenue band, setup and minimum term, and the merchant-of-record fee where it applies.
0 — No public prices at all; every customer is a sales call.
3 — A starting price or a free tier exists, but how cost scales with billed revenue, invoices or modules is unclear.
5 — Tiers are public with their main inclusions and revenue bands, but at least one commonly needed piece (e-invoicing, revenue recognition, extra gateways, overage) is unpriced or "on request".
8 — Every tier priced publicly with its scaling rule (revenue percentage, per invoice, per subscriber), overage and add-ons listed, minimum term and VAT treatment stated.
10 — Complete price computability: annual cost derivable for a given billed revenue, invoice volume and module set, with every add-on, setup, support and payment or merchant-of-record fee and the cancellation and data-return terms published.
The SaaS Founder
Launch is fully computable — "$299/month + 0.7% of revenue processed" with "Up to $2M in annual revenue" and "Up to 100 active subscriptions" — and the terms state tax-exclusive fees, auto-renewal with thirty days' notice and a penalty-free thirty-day exit if fees change. From Growth upward every tier is "Custom Pricing on request" and the add-on modules are named without prices, so past $2M I cannot compute my annual bill from public pages. 2 5
The Finance Lead
Launch is fully computable at "$299/month + 0.7% of revenue processed" for up to $2M in annual revenue and 100 active subscriptions, with fees stated exclusive of tax and a 30-day penalty-free exit window when fees change. Growth is "Custom Pricing on request" for $2M–20M in annual revenue and up to 1000 active subscriptions, Scale is "Custom Pricing on request" above $20M, and we found no public information on what the add-on modules attachable to any plan cost. At my revenue level the answer is a sales call, so a buyer cannot compute the real annual cost from public pages. 2 5
The Billing Engineer
The Launch tier is fully public — $299/month + 0.7% of revenue processed, up to $2M in annual revenue and up to 100 active subscriptions — and the terms state fees are exclusive of tax, non-refundable, with a thirty-day exit window on fee changes. But Growth and Scale are Custom Pricing on request and the add-on modules offered on any plan carry no public price, so a buyer above $2M in annual revenue cannot compute cost from public pages alone. 2 5

Launch is published precisely as "$299/month + 0.7% of revenue processed" with caps of "$2M in annual revenue" and "Up to 100 active subscriptions", fees are stated exclusive of tax, and a fee increase gives the client thirty days to terminate without penalty. Above that, Growth and Scale read "Custom Pricing on request" and the add-on modules carry no public price, so with my contract volume the annual cost is not computable from public pages alone. 2 5
The Tax Adviser
The Launch plan is fully priced at $299/month + 0.7% of revenue processed with its caps published ($2M in annual revenue, 100 active subscriptions), and the terms state fees are exclusive of tax, non-refundable, with thirty days to exit on a fee change. Growth and Scale are 'Custom Pricing on request' and the add-on modules any plan can take carry no public price, so a buyer above the $2M revenue band cannot compute the real annual cost from public pages. 2 5
The Skeptic
The Launch tier can be computed from public pages: "$299/month + 0.7% of revenue processed", up to $2M in annual revenue and 100 active subscriptions, fees exclusive of tax and non-refundable, and a thirty-day penalty-free exit if fees change. Growth and Scale are "Custom Pricing on request", the add-on modules offered on any plan carry no public price, and we found no public information on the initial term length behind the automatic renewal. 2 5

Where this could be wrong
- Evidence ages. The oldest capture behind this page is from 26 Oct 2026. Vendors change pricing and policies without notice; every fact reflects its source as of the capture date shown in the registry.
- Weak sourcing — Data residency. Not confirmed on the vendor’s own pages as captured.
- AI can misread a source. Extraction and judgement are automated; a citation guarantees traceability, not infallibility. If something here is wrong, say so — no account needed, every report is decided within 5 business days, and accepted corrections are published.
