6sense vs WP Tasty: at a glance
What is 6sense?
6sense's tracked feed is a mid-2022 snapshot of Slintel filter and UX additions — newer cadence is unclear.
The visible changelog covers a tight window in mid-2022, when the Slintel side of 6sense was rolling out a steady drip of filter additions (Year Founded, Last Funding Stage, Company Type, expanded Location regions) plus UX touches like Quick View on the Intent and Smart List tabs. Heavier moves in the same window were a Salesforce integration overhaul and a company-data refresh that added 11M leads and improved phone fill-rate 2.5x. Nothing more recent is captured here.
What is WP Tasty?
WP Tasty released all five plugins in one morning to split editor access from admin settings.
The entire WP Tasty family — Recipes, Recipes Lite, Links, Roundups and Pins — shipped the same day with a shared pair of changes: a reworked licensing system and a new line between who can use a plugin and who can configure it. Editors gain access to the Roundups and Recipes menus and lists; settings across Links, Pins and Recipes Lite are now administrator-only. Each release adds one or two small fixes on top.

6sense's tracked feed is a mid-2022 snapshot of Slintel filter and UX additions — newer cadence is unclear.
◆ Current state
The visible changelog covers a tight window in mid-2022, when the Slintel side of 6sense was rolling out a steady drip of filter additions (Year Founded, Last Funding Stage, Company Type, expanded Location regions) plus UX touches like Quick View on the Intent and Smart List tabs. Heavier moves in the same window were a Salesforce integration overhaul and a company-data refresh that added 11M leads and improved phone fill-rate 2.5x. Nothing more recent is captured here.
◆ Where it's heading
Within the captured window the direction is clear: enrich filtering, surface the same Quick View metaphor consistently across pages, and harden the Salesforce sync that downstream sellers depend on. It reads as a mature B2B intent platform doing rounded-corner work — incremental relevance gains rather than category-shifting moves. What has happened since 2022 isn't visible in this feed.
◆ Prediction
On the strength of these entries alone, the next-step bet is more of the same: additional firmographic and intent filters, more cross-tab consistency for Quick View, and continued data-quality investment. With no recent entries, anything beyond that is speculation.

5.0MARKETING
WP Tasty released all five plugins in one morning to split editor access from admin settings.
◆ Current state
The entire WP Tasty family — Recipes, Recipes Lite, Links, Roundups and Pins — shipped the same day with a shared pair of changes: a reworked licensing system and a new line between who can use a plugin and who can configure it. Editors gain access to the Roundups and Recipes menus and lists; settings across Links, Pins and Recipes Lite are now administrator-only. Each release adds one or two small fixes on top.
◆ Where it's heading
The coordinated release is the story. WP Tasty treats the five plugins as one product with five installers, and this batch pushes a WordPress capability model through all of them at once — a recognition that recipe sites run on multi-author teams where a contributing editor should reach the roundup list without reaching the license key. The licensing rework shipping in the same breath across every plugin suggests a shared internal library rather than five parallel efforts. Feature work of the kind seen in June, when Save Recipe turned the recipe card into an email capture surface, is paused for this pass.
◆ Prediction
Expect the next family-wide release to keep extending the capability split — a granular role or per-plugin permission setting is the natural follow-on now that editor and admin are separated — before feature work on the recipe card resumes.
