ZenTao posts a 22.0 beta with no notes in the feed.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Birdview PSA and NocoBase — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Birdview adds an MCP connector for ChatGPT and Claude after a run of workflow features.
Birdview's pace has picked up since spring. It shipped internal automations in May and Quotes in June, then Birdview MCP in September, which connects ChatGPT and Claude to a workspace for asking about projects and updating tasks. It also renewed its SOC 2 Type II report for 2026.
NocoBase's v3 beta lets apps ship their own CLI, separate from Agents.
NocoBase ships several betas a day across v2.3 and v3. After multi-app projects on November 12, the two November 13 v3 betas let applications distribute their CLI independently of Agents, add a public installer and streamed uploads, show each coding tool's concurrency limit and current runs in the agent runtime list and turn on web search for DeepSeek models. They also speed up IMAP sync and make stalled release downloads time out.

The earlier read of Birdview as mature with no agentic bet needs revising: MCP gives it an AI story that needs no in-house assistant. Quotes reaches back into pre-sale work and automations handle routine steps, so the product now covers more of the project lifecycle. The direction is broader coverage, with AI access delivered through other people's clients.
Expect Quotes to connect further into delivery and billing, since it is meant to prepare work for delivery. MCP coverage may widen too, though one entry is not enough to say how quickly.

They also speed up IMAP sync and make stalled release downloads time out.
v3 is assembling a toolchain around apps built by coding agents: app hosts, release management, CLIs and agent runners, each published as its own package. Many daily betas mean the parts are still moving fast.
Expect release management and the agent runtime list to keep changing in daily betas before any v3 release candidate appears.
