As listed by each developer

FormulaShare

✔ DYNAMIC SHARING Share to users, roles or groups in any text, formula or lookup field. One rule replaces tens or hundreds of criteria or ownership-based rules, avoids automation to stamp sharing fields and keeps the model in your data, not static config.
✔ CROSS-OBJECT RULES Share records based on data anywhere in your model - up to 10 relationships deep. Traverse to parents, down to children or across via common ancestors. Share an Account based on Products related via Opportunity Lines for example.
✔ YOUR OBJECTS AS TEAMS Map objects representing teams, departments or regions and their members. FormulaShare automates sharing based on team association, with hierarchy cascading, cross-team affiliations and role-based membership all supported.
✔ ATTRIBUTE-BASED ACCESS (ABAC) Share records to users with a field value matching the record, e.g. region, department or clearance level. FormulaShare creates one group per value and keeps membership current automatically. No manual group management.
✔ TERRITORY MANAGEMENT FOR EVERY OBJECT Share any object to ETM territories based on their association to Accounts or Leads. Use your existing territory assignments without rebuilding or duplicating your territory model.
✔ SHARE IN REAL-TIME Via a packaged Flow template (select the object, activate - done) or three lines of Apex in your trigger. Both run within the managed package's own governor limits. Scheduled batch and targeted calculation jobs cover all other changes
✔ SCALES WITH YOUR ORG Used by 100+ orgs sharing across dozens of objects and tens of millions of records. Click-and-go for simple setups; granular controls for high-volume objects and complex transaction lifecycles. Built to scale with your org.
✔ AUDIT-READY Complex sharing logic, distilled in clear and auditable rules. The rules list shows every rule with object, relationship path, access level and live metrics. Rules are custom metadata - version controlled and deployable with any DevOps tool.
✔ COMPLETE OBSERVABILITY Every sharing change logged at the record level - which rule, which context, which records, and the outcome. Built-in dashboard and reports for compliance reviews. Log retention fully customisable to suit your data volumes.
