                    • Overview numbers load noticeably faster, and show a dash while they're on their way, so you're never looking at a misleading zero.

                              • Participant statuses are clearer and more accurate: "Completed" is now "Paid", cancellations made on the Respondent panel side sync automatically, and no-shows are surfaced on canceled sessions.

                              • Calendar privacy: personal calendar event names are hidden from teammates — others just see "Occupied".
