value-added

Improved beyond basic

Value-added describes something that increases worth beyond the basic or expected: value-added services, value-added features.

In economics, value added is the difference between what a business pays for inputs and what it charges for outputs—the wealth created at each stage of production.

The term often appears in business jargon to make ordinary offerings sound more substantial.
