For reference, Lindy shipped 0 meaningful updates in the last 30 days and carries a velocity score of 0.0 out of 10 in 2026. The alternatives below are ranked the same way, so you're comparing real release momentum, not marketing claims.
About Lindy
Lindy bets the whole product on the 'AI employee' — agent builder, computer-use autopilot, and an app builder.
Lindy is an AI-agent platform pursuing an explicit 'AI employee' thesis: agents you direct in natural language that can act across your tools. The last two major releases pushed hard on that — Lindy 3.0 reframed agent creation as vibe-coding and added an Autopilot that gives each agent its own cloud computer, and Lindy Build extended the platform into AI web-app creation. More recent entries are workflow quality-of-life (retries, task search, sharing, version renaming) layered on top of that foundation. Note the surfaced feed appears to stop in late 2025, so newer moves aren't visible here.
