Cause of death: the autopsy

The Nacha rule (phase 2, effective 2026-06-19) only asks for 'risk-based processes', not a product, and no complaint threads were found. Banks pass the job down with their own positive-pay and ACH tools.

The numbers

None. It was never built, so there are no visitors, sales or ad spend to count. It died on paper, which is the cheapest place to die.

Could rise again if

The report left no way back.
