- More convenient & flexible handling of barcodes that will eliminate protocol-specific settings or preprocessing scripts.
- Increased processing speed
- Compatibility with paired-end cDNA reads in combination with cell barcodes and UMIs
-[Velocyto](http://velocyto.org/)-compatible output to estimate [RNA velocity](https://www.biorxiv.org/content/early/2017/10/19/206052)
- Possibility to integrate transgenes or external references like ERCC spike ins on the fly and produce summary stats separately from endogenous mRNA for these
