What is Adapty?
Adapty lets one paywall flow personalise itself with the app's own user data
Adapty has finished moving customers onto one builder: the old Paywall and Onboarding Builders were deprecated on October 1 and Paywalls now live inside Flows & Paywalls. Since then it added a yearly plan sold as 12 monthly payments on native iOS, and the November 9 roundup brings custom tags, where the app passes a value through the SDK and any text in a flow can display it, alongside flow funnels and screen animations.
What is Sequence?
Sequence is filling in the enterprise checklist for its quote-to-cash billing platform.
Sequence ships small, frequent updates across quoting, billing and accounting sync. October brought enterprise SSO, amendment and upsell quotes that change live contracts, two-way QuickBooks sync for payments and credit notes, NetSuite item mapping on credit grants, and one-time-code login for the customer portal.

Adapty lets one paywall flow personalise itself with the app's own user data
◆ Current state
Adapty has finished moving customers onto one builder: the old Paywall and Onboarding Builders were deprecated on October 1 and Paywalls now live inside Flows & Paywalls. Since then it added a yearly plan sold as 12 monthly payments on native iOS, and the November 9 roundup brings custom tags, where the app passes a value through the SDK and any text in a flow can display it, alongside flow funnels and screen animations.
◆ Where it's heading
With the migration done, the work has moved to making each flow do more: personalised copy, funnel analytics on flows, and animation. Adapty is turning the paywall builder into a general onboarding and conversion surface, with agent-built flows from August and pricing experiments like the 12-payment yearly plan layered on top.
◆ Prediction
Expect more SDK-fed personalisation and per-screen analytics inside flows, and the 12-payment yearly plan to extend beyond native iOS; the entries give no timeline for either.
Sequence
5.0FINANCE
Sequence is filling in the enterprise checklist for its quote-to-cash billing platform.
◆ Current state
Sequence ships small, frequent updates across quoting, billing and accounting sync. October brought enterprise SSO, amendment and upsell quotes that change live contracts, two-way QuickBooks sync for payments and credit notes, NetSuite item mapping on credit grants, and one-time-code login for the customer portal.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is connecting the whole revenue path, from quote approval through contract changes to the general ledger, while adding the access controls larger customers require. Accounting integrations are getting deeper, not just wider.
◆ Prediction
Expect more enterprise controls (roles, audit trails) and further two-way ERP sync, following SSO and the QuickBooks work.
