Magic Receptionist launches Managed Launch plan

About these updates
We include shipped changes when a customer, partner, or evaluator would reasonably care that a product capability, plan, integration, or trust behavior changed. We do not list ordinary website styling, internal refactors, tests, deployments, database migrations, internal admin tooling, SEO infrastructure, or routine engineering work here.
