✨ Happy New Year, and welcome to 2026 ✨

As the calendar turns, we’ve had one of those rare, quietly meaningful coincidences, the B&E Media website has gone live on New Year’s Day.

It feels fitting... Because 2026 is the year B&E Media launches.

The past year has been one of long nights, hard decisions, false starts, problem-solving, rebuilding, and pushing through moments where the easy option would have been to pause or walk away.

Alongside the creative and technical challenges came incredibly difficult financial decisions, trade-offs, and risks that tested both resolve and direction.

There’s been a lot of sweat, a fair few tears, and more lessons learned than we can count, but also a growing sense that the foundations are finally set.

Right now, we’re putting the finishing touches on the final requirements to submit Property Assistant to the app stores.

If all goes to plan, we anticipate it going live within the next week or two, a milestone that represents months of refinement, iteration, and belief in building something genuinely useful, transparent, and grounded in real-world decision making whilst we work our usual health jobs.

At the same time, Litopia has entered an exciting new chapter. With contracts signed and Phase 3 officially kicking off in early December, we’ve already seen great progress across art direction, world building, and deeper feature development for the upcoming alpha.

We’re also actively investigating new approaches to digital twin creation, opening up possibilities that simply weren’t achievable when this journey began.

Lastly, we are working hard to move B&E Media to company status and lodge new digs in the Adelaide CBD.

This moment, a new year, a live website, multiple projects moving into their next phase, feels like the end of a long climb and the start of a steadier stride forward.

Thank you to everyone who’s supported us, challenged us, encouraged us, or simply followed along quietly. There’s much more to come in the months ahead as Litopia Phase 3 hits its stride and Property Assistant enters the world.

Here’s to 2026, new beginnings, hard-won momentum, and building things that matter. 🥂
