What is ClickFunnels?
ClickFunnels is closing its measurement gap: which funnel earned the sale, step by step.
ClickFunnels is spending its releases on attribution and reporting rather than new selling surfaces. Orders can now be filtered by the funnel that produced the payment, the Opt-ins tab records every opt-in a contact submits with the funnel step that captured it, and funnel sales totals roll all order types into one figure with longer date ranges. Alongside that, Under Attack Mode gained a Strong tier aimed squarely at card-testing bots.
What is Craft CMS?
Craft 6 reaches beta with an AI assistant that edits content through its own MCP tools.
Craft CMS 6.0.0-beta.1 ends the alpha series on the Laravel foundation. It adds Ask AI, a chat panel beside every control panel screen that uses Craft's MCP tools as the signed-in user and proposes changes the user reviews and applies, plus a Ctrl/Cmd+K command palette, a side-by-side Compare screen for drafts, revisions and sites, and copy/paste of field values. The 5.12 stable line gets only single-fix patches.

ClickFunnels is closing its measurement gap: which funnel earned the sale, step by step.
◆ Current state
ClickFunnels is spending its releases on attribution and reporting rather than new selling surfaces. Orders can now be filtered by the funnel that produced the payment, the Opt-ins tab records every opt-in a contact submits with the funnel step that captured it, and funnel sales totals roll all order types into one figure with longer date ranges. Alongside that, Under Attack Mode gained a Strong tier aimed squarely at card-testing bots.
◆ Where it's heading
The pattern is turning a page builder into something a marketer can audit. Each release answers a question an operator was previously exporting data to answer — which funnel is profitable, where in the step sequence people convert, what a funnel earned all-time. A parallel push widens API coverage over workflows, filters, and community so integrations and the agents built on them can reach more of the product.
◆ Prediction
Reporting is likely to keep consolidating into comparative views — funnel-versus-funnel and per-step conversion built on the attribution data these releases started capturing. The entries do not indicate whether that becomes a distinct analytics surface or stays layered onto the existing index pages.
Craft CMS
6.3MKT AUTO
Craft 6 reaches beta with an AI assistant that edits content through its own MCP tools.
◆ Current state
Craft CMS 6.0.0-beta.1 ends the alpha series on the Laravel foundation. It adds Ask AI, a chat panel beside every control panel screen that uses Craft's MCP tools as the signed-in user and proposes changes the user reviews and applies, plus a Ctrl/Cmd+K command palette, a side-by-side Compare screen for drafts, revisions and sites, and copy/paste of field values. The 5.12 stable line gets only single-fix patches.
◆ Where it's heading
The alphas rebuilt the control panel on shared Inertia/Vue components; the beta uses that base to add editor-facing features, with AI assistance and version comparison at the center. Ask AI runs on the same MCP tools and permissions as the user, so Craft is treating AI as another way to operate the control panel rather than a separate content generator.
◆ Prediction
Further 6.0 betas fixing plugin and UI issues are the likely next step, with Ask AI's scope and model settings the area to watch. No release date for 6.0 is visible in the entries.
