What is Airship?

Airship is layering AI agents into every surface of its mobile messaging platform on a quarterly cadence.

Airship just shipped its Campaigns AI Agent (April 1), which takes a brief and produces coordinated cross-channel draft messages with strategy guidance. February brought a Conversational AI Scene Assistant for spinning multi-screen native experiences out of ideas and mockups. January's Scenes Accessibility Agent runs AI audits with one-click fixes. Each launch shows up in the feed twice as the crawler captures both the announcement and its blurb.

What is Gumloop?

Gumloop turns autonomous agents into supervised, governable workers.

Gumloop is a fast-shipping agent platform adding model options (GLM-5.2, Claude Opus 4.8), channel connectors (Slack triggers, Microsoft Teams), and team-level governance (skill permission roles, shared secrets, per-org credit insights). The release cadence is high and broad across agents, MCP, and platform plumbing.

Airship is layering AI agents into every surface of its mobile messaging platform on a quarterly cadence.

◆ Current state

Airship just shipped its Campaigns AI Agent (April 1), which takes a brief and produces coordinated cross-channel draft messages with strategy guidance. February brought a Conversational AI Scene Assistant for spinning multi-screen native experiences out of ideas and mockups. January's Scenes Accessibility Agent runs AI audits with one-click fixes. Each launch shows up in the feed twice as the crawler captures both the announcement and its blurb.

◆ Where it's heading

Airship has settled into a clear cadence: every quarter, one of its surfaces (Audience Planner, Scenes, Campaigns) gets a dedicated generative agent. AI Recommendations landed in November, then Scenes Accessibility (Jan), Scene Assistant (Feb), Campaigns Agent (Apr). The architecture is per-surface specialists rather than a single omni-agent — the choice points at Airship's belief that mobile messaging workflows are too domain-specific for a generic copilot.

◆ Prediction

Expect these per-surface agents to be unified into a single multi-step agent that spans brief → audience → scene → accessibility → send, plus likely new agents in journeys and analytics. The next quarterly slot is around July.

7.5

Gumloop turns autonomous agents into supervised, governable workers.

◆ Current state

Gumloop is a fast-shipping agent platform adding model options (GLM-5.2, Claude Opus 4.8), channel connectors (Slack triggers, Microsoft Teams), and team-level governance (skill permission roles, shared secrets, per-org credit insights). The release cadence is high and broad across agents, MCP, and platform plumbing.

◆ Where it's heading

The product is maturing agents from autonomous runners into supervised, governable workers: human-in-the-loop approvals, automatic chat evaluations, credit forecasting, and org model presets all target oversight and cost control rather than raw capability.

◆ Prediction

Expect deeper governance and cost-control tooling plus continued expansion of enterprise channels and MCP connectors.
