What is Airtop?
Airtop built the agent-browser primitives quickly in early 2025, then went quiet.
Airtop is a browser-automation API aimed at AI agents — the kind of plumbing layer LLM-driven workflows need to actually click, type, scroll, and download on real websites. The visible release stream covers the predictable scaffolding: form filling with AI, file uploads and downloads, scroll interactions, captcha solving, residential proxies, n8n integration, session recording.
What is Speakeasy?
Speakeasy's Gram is hardening into an enterprise MCP-agent platform with event-driven triggers.
Gram, Speakeasy's MCP-agent platform, is shipping at a rapid weekly cadence (v0.69 through v0.73 plus Elements 1.36 in two weeks). The work clusters around enterprise readiness - user-session and identity management, SSO and directory sync, audit trails of assistant tool calls, token-under-management billing - alongside assistant ergonomics like a full-page Project Assistant and streaming replies.

Airtop
0.0DEVOPS
Airtop built the agent-browser primitives quickly in early 2025, then went quiet.
◆ Current state
Airtop is a browser-automation API aimed at AI agents — the kind of plumbing layer LLM-driven workflows need to actually click, type, scroll, and download on real websites. The visible release stream covers the predictable scaffolding: form filling with AI, file uploads and downloads, scroll interactions, captcha solving, residential proxies, n8n integration, session recording.
◆ Where it's heading
The cadence is uneven. Airtop shipped fast in February through April 2025 — most of the core agent-browser primitives landed in those weeks — and then went largely quiet, with only a session-recording release in September 2025 visible since. That's either a sign of pivoting attention to platform-side work that isn't surfaced publicly, or that the public roadmap has slowed while competitors like Browserbase and Steel keep iterating in the open.
◆ Prediction
If Airtop is still actively building, expect the next public releases to be on the model-agnostic agent-runtime layer — possibly a hosted agent execution surface or richer context-passing between an LLM and the browser session. If the slowdown reflects a deeper strategic shift, the next signal will be repositioning content rather than feature releases.
Speakeasy
10.0DEVOPS
Speakeasy's Gram is hardening into an enterprise MCP-agent platform with event-driven triggers.
◆ Current state
Gram, Speakeasy's MCP-agent platform, is shipping at a rapid weekly cadence (v0.69 through v0.73 plus Elements 1.36 in two weeks). The work clusters around enterprise readiness - user-session and identity management, SSO and directory sync, audit trails of assistant tool calls, token-under-management billing - alongside assistant ergonomics like a full-page Project Assistant and streaming replies.
◆ Where it's heading
Gram is moving from a build-MCP-servers tool toward a governed platform for running assistants and agents in an organization. The newest release adds webhook triggers that let Slack, Linear, and GitHub events drive agents, while the identity, audit, and billing work signals a deliberate push at enterprise buyers who need control and accountability.
◆ Prediction
Expect more event sources and governance surfaces - additional webhook integrations, richer policy and audience scoping, and analytics that tie assistant tool-call audit data to the token-under-management billing it just introduced.
