- New technical limits were highlighted, including the ability to process 100,000 usage events per second for a single business.
- Added specific sections for "Sales-led processes" and "Self-serve growth" to show how the tool fits different business sizes.
- Updated the "Global payments" section to include support for stablecoins.
