Releases
What we've shipped.
Product updates, knowledge corpus refreshes, and the steady work of making MustertheForce better. New entries land here every week or two.
Recon Pro now $20/month
If you hit the daily Recon cap regularly, Recon Pro is now available at $20/month for unlimited Recons. Cancel anytime, no annual commitment.
For platform admins, we also wired up an unlimited-access entitlement across every product: Recon, Context, Scout, Playbook, Briefing, Resume Builder. Admin-granted product usage is flagged separately in the database so it never shows up in revenue reports.
Read more →Summer '26 release notes now in Recon's knowledge
Salesforce's Summer '26 release notes are now in our knowledge corpus. Ask Recon about anything new in Summer '26 — feature changes, deprecations, new APIs — and you'll get the same cited, grounded answer treatment as any other Salesforce question.
Briefing's awareness of Summer '26 is also live for proposal scoping — Forces writing proposals for projects that span the release window now get release-aware competitive intel.
Read more →Analytics, behind your consent
We added a consent banner that asks before any analytics, session replays, or ad attribution loads. You can accept all, decline all, or customize which categories you allow.
Three categories, each independently toggleable:
- Analytics — page views and product usage (Google Analytics 4)
- Session replays — anonymized recordings for UX improvement (Microsoft Clarity)
- Ad attribution — knowing which campaigns brought you here
Choices persist for 12 months and you can change them anytime via the "Privacy choices" link in the footer.
Behind the scenes we use Google Consent Mode v2, which means even when you decline tracking, our ad campaigns can still measure aggregate performance without a single cookie. Less tracking, same insight.
Read more →Briefing receipts now fire only after payment
A small but important fix: Briefing purchase notifications were sometimes firing the moment a Briefing session was created — before payment had confirmed through Stripe. If you saw a notification but no charge, that was why.
We fixed the trigger to fire only after Stripe confirms. Five backdated notifications were corrected. If you experienced this, your account is now showing the right state.
Read more →Recon goes anonymous-trial
You shouldn't need to make an account to find out if Recon can actually answer your Salesforce question. So we stopped requiring one.
Anonymous users get 1 Recon per day, no signup. Signed-in free users get 3 per day. Recon Pro stays unlimited at $20/month.
If you hit the cap, you'll see a card with two paths: sign up for the free tier (jumps you to 3/day) or upgrade to Pro for unlimited. No more dead-ends.
Read more →Recon answers cite Salesforce documentation
Every Recon answer now ships with inline citations linking back to the Salesforce documentation chunks that grounded it. If Recon tells you "Sharing Rules cascade to Public Groups," you'll see exactly which official Salesforce doc page that came from.
Behind the scenes, we expanded each query into 3-5 canonical variants, ran a hybrid retrieval against 10,000+ chunks of live Salesforce docs, re-ranked the candidates with a smaller model, then fed the top 8 to the answer model. The result: cited answers in roughly 30 seconds, with a measurable bump in source relevance.
You can read the prompt that produced your answer at the bottom of any Recon — paste it into ChatGPT or Claude if you want a second opinion.
Read more →The MustertheForce Knowledge Layer
We shipped the MTF Knowledge Layer — a curated corpus of Salesforce Help, Object Reference pages, Release Notes, and Developer Documentation, embedded and indexed for fast retrieval.
Scout, Recon, and Playbook all query this corpus in real time. Feature names, click paths, permission requirements, certification prerequisites, and release cycle alignment all come from Salesforce's current documentation — not from a model's training data that went stale the day it shipped.
The Knowledge Layer refreshes after every Salesforce release (Spring, Summer, Winter). Spring '26 is in the corpus. Summer '26 hits the corpus the week after general availability.
Read more →Recon — your urgent-care Salesforce answer
Recon is back, and it's a different product. Where the first version generated prompts you took elsewhere, the new Recon answers your question — grounded in our Knowledge Layer, with inline citations to Salesforce's own documentation.
Type a question. Thirty seconds later you've got a complete answer with the official source pages it came from. Vote thumbs up or thumbs down to help us improve.
The first /recon page is intentionally bare — single input, single button, no signup wall. Try it. We think the answer quality speaks for itself.
Read more →Context — give your LLM Salesforce expertise
Context is free, no signup required. Type a Salesforce problem in plain English, get back a grounded markdown prompt you can paste into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Agentforce.
Context grounds your prompt in current Salesforce documentation before your LLM sees it. The model you already use — your $20/month ChatGPT, your Claude subscription, your company's Agentforce instance — gets upgraded into a Salesforce specialist, just for that one question.
3 prompts per day anonymous, 20 per day signed in. No paywall, no credit card.
Context also routes you forward when the problem is too complex for a single prompt: it'll suggest Recon for question-scale issues or Scout for project-scale ones.
Read more →Real payments, the MTF Shield, and how your money's protected
Payments on MustertheForce are now live. Real cards, real Stripe Connect payouts, real money in your bank account.
We replaced the redirect-to-Stripe-Checkout flow with an in-app payment modal — your card details enter MTF's branded form, you click pay, and you stay on the page. No off-site jumps.
Every funded engagement is backed by the MTF Shield: your money sits in payment protection until you approve milestones, our team mediates when something goes wrong, and milestone funds release only when you approve them. Every gig. Every milestone. Every consultation.
Read more →Scout reads your live org
Scout now connects to your Salesforce org and reads your live configuration directly. Automations, objects, packages, permissions, managed packages — all of it grounds the diagnostic in your real org, not assumptions.
The Scout Report comes back with specific evidence: "Your org has 10 active APXTConga4 custom objects · 179 inactive Flows · 2,000 Apex classes · 154 triggers." That specificity is what differentiates a Scout Report from generic Salesforce advice.
The Scout Report also auto-generates a Force Brief — a paste-ready project brief you can drop into a Gig posting so Forces can scope an accurate proposal from your actual org.
Read more →Resume Builder — free, Salesforce-native
The Resume Builder reads your Trailhead certifications and generates a consulting-ready resume tailored to the Salesforce ecosystem — professional summary, certifications mapped to product areas, specialties derived from your cert stack, and the project types you qualify for.
You can also enter certifications manually if Trailhead is offline or you'd rather not link it.
It's free. The resume is yours. PDF download, regenerate as you earn new certs, no subscription. We don't gate anything behind a paywall — the only thing we ask is that you create a free account so you can come back and update your resume later.
Read more →Briefing gets a home of its own
A few weeks after launch we shipped the rest of Briefing:
- A dedicated landing page so Forces can learn what Briefing does before they're staring at a gig
- "My Briefings" in your Force dashboard so every Briefing you've bought is one click away
- PDF download for the Technical Brief — paste-ready, attach-ready, send to a client as part of your proposal package
Same $5, same 30-second turnaround. Just easier to live with.
Read more →Briefing — win more gigs with $5 of proposal intel
Browse a gig, click "Brief This Gig," pay $5, and 30 seconds later you've got a Proposal Kit: a milestone blueprint with hour estimates and budget ranges, a paste-ready technical brief that goes in your proposal, and private competitive intel that only you see.
Briefing is the Force-side counterpart to Scout. Where Scout helps clients scope, Briefing helps Forces propose. The gig's structured data is the input — no conversation, no questions, just the kit.
The math is simple: a small upfront cost should give you back hours of proposal-writing time and a meaningfully better hit rate on gigs you actually fit.
Read more →Salary Calculator — your Salesforce salary, freelance-flipped
The free Salary Calculator takes your role, seniority, and region — and shows you what you could earn freelancing on MTF. We use the SF Ben 2025-26 salary survey as the FTE baseline and apply a 1.3× freelance markup, then run four scenarios:
- Full-time — 160 hours/month
- Part-time — 80 hours/month
- Nights & weekends — 40 hours/month
- Between jobs — what you could earn while you job hunt
US, UK, and India data included. No signup, no card. Founding Forces see their 5% lifetime fee applied to results.
Read more →Playbook — your Salesforce fix, step by step
Scout diagnoses. Playbook prescribes. Click-level steps, phase-by-phase delivery, validation checkpoints, deployment plans, and rollback procedures — every Salesforce screen named, every permission called out, every API name correct.
Playbook is what happens when you take a Scout Report and ask "now what?" The output is detailed enough that an internal admin can follow it without additional guidance, or a Force can use it as a pre-scoped project brief.
Bundle it with Scout at $199 and Playbook auto-generates the moment your Scout Report finishes. Or add it later for $149 — anytime within 30 days of completing your Scout session.
Read more →Founding Force Program — 50 spots, 5% for life
The Founding Force Program opens with one number: 5%. That's the platform fee a Founding Force pays on every gig, locked for life. Standard rate is 15%. The first 50 Forces who complete profile, verify their Trailhead certifications, and connect Stripe earn that rate forever.
Founding Forces also get a referral code that pays 1% of every referred Force's gross earnings, for the first 12 months — paid via Stripe Connect once you cross $50.
When all 50 spots fill, the program closes. Permanently. No reopens, no exceptions, no "second cohort." This is the founding cohort.
Read more →Salesforce releases on Scout's radar
If your project touches anything affected by an upcoming Salesforce release, Scout will flag it.
Scout watches for the canaries: API versions below 31.0, SAML/SSO configuration, Apex batch jobs, invocable actions, instance-specific URLs, X (Twitter) authentication, Flow Orchestration permissions, and EWS-to-Graph migration triggers like Einstein Activity Capture or Lightning Sync on Microsoft 365.
When detected, the Scout Report includes a Release Readiness Flag with a recommended remediation path. We also added "Release Readiness" as a gig category — so you can post the audit work directly to the Gigs board if you want a Force to handle it.
Read more →Scout — diagnose your Salesforce project before you spend
Scout is now live. It's a 10–20 minute structured interview about your Salesforce project — Scout asks the questions a senior business analyst would ask, you describe your situation in plain English, and the result is a Scout Report you can take to any Salesforce pro on the planet.
The report is what changes the conversation. Project summary, Salesforce products involved, budget range, timeline, complexity rating, hiring questions to vet your candidates, and risks to plan around.
Scout replaces what consultants charge $600–$1,600 for: the discovery engagement before any work begins. $79 flat. Want the step-by-step implementation plan that follows the diagnosis? Add the Playbook for $149, or grab the Scout + Playbook bundle for $199.
