Avaza vs Fibery: at a glance
What is Avaza?
Avaza's MCP server is still the news; the feed has turned to services-firm guides.
Avaza's recent entries are long-form guides for professional services firms on billable hours, revenue leakage, capacity planning and PSA software. No entry since the MCP server and subtask rebuild describes a new release.
What is Fibery?
Fibery moves AI Connectors to free beta two weeks after preview, with MCP creation on the way.
Fibery's October 29 release moves AI Connectors from experimental to beta and calls them ready for general use. They are free for now, and Fibery says moderate usage may stay free, with a pricing decision due by year end. The release also adds a block menu and multi-block selection in rich text, per-screen URLs for Custom Apps, tab moves between desktop windows, and Fibery whiteboards in ChatGPT through the MCP server.
Avaza vs Fibery: editorial side-by-side
Avaza
5.0PM
Avaza's MCP server is still the news; the feed has turned to services-firm guides.
◆ Current state
Avaza's recent entries are long-form guides for professional services firms on billable hours, revenue leakage, capacity planning and PSA software. No entry since the MCP server and subtask rebuild describes a new release.
◆ Where it's heading
Avaza is positioning itself to become the system AI agents read from and write to when a professional-services workflow needs context — quotes, billable hours, project status. The MCP server is the infrastructure for that bet; the subtask rebuild and status customization narrow the gap with heavier-weight project management tools. Cadence is moderate, but the MCP move is unusual for an SMB-focused vendor.
◆ Prediction
Expect more buying guides aimed at services firms. A follow-up to the MCP work is plausible, but these entries show no product signal.
Fibery
7.5PM
Fibery moves AI Connectors to free beta two weeks after preview, with MCP creation on the way.
◆ Current state
Fibery's October 29 release moves AI Connectors from experimental to beta and calls them ready for general use. They are free for now, and Fibery says moderate usage may stay free, with a pricing decision due by year end. The release also adds a block menu and multi-block selection in rich text, per-screen URLs for Custom Apps, tab moves between desktop windows, and Fibery whiteboards in ChatGPT through the MCP server.
◆ Where it's heading
Fibery is making AI the main builder and operator of the workspace: the agent, Custom Apps, AI-generated connectors and an MCP server that now handles code execution, files and whiteboards. Features are moving from preview to general use within weeks, and the weekly cadence alternates big AI releases with quality-of-life updates.
◆ Prediction
Fibery says MCP support for creating AI Connectors is coming, so expect that next. Connector pricing should settle by year end, most likely around sync frequency, since it names 5-15 minute syncs as the case that could change costs.
