Cause of death: the autopsy

CalcXML, the incumbent, was current (its estate calculator already used the 2026 $15.0M exclusion), priced from $1,490 a year per category. Killed. Scored 1 of 5.

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.
