SalesBlink
SalesBlink is turning cold outreach agentic — from an MCP server to native AI in the dashboard.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Kit (formerly ConvertKit) and Formaloo — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Kit pushes past email tooling toward audience intelligence and AI-tool access.
Kit (formerly ConvertKit) is layering two new capabilities on top of its email and automation core: subscriber intelligence and AI-tool integration. Alongside those, it shipped a navigation redesign, a rebuilt landing page editor, and a rename of Creator profile to Newsletter site. The base product keeps getting incremental search and editor polish while the headline bets are data and AI.
Formaloo is turning its form builder into a data-automation and workspace platform.
Formaloo has grown well past a form builder into a workspace platform for collecting, structuring, and acting on data — portals with access control, Kanban and Gallery data blocks with voting, workspace-wide themes, PDF and email templating, and a logic engine. It ships weekly, and recent cycles lean into enterprise readiness: teams and access levels, timezone-consistent records, and usage-based add-ons.

The base product keeps getting incremental search and editor polish while the headline bets are data and AI.
The direction is from send-and-automate toward understand-your-audience and operate-Kit-from-anywhere. Subscriber Signals adds an audience data layer that competes with standalone enrichment tools, while the Kit MCP exposes the platform to external AI assistants. Together they reposition Kit as creator infrastructure rather than just an email sender.
Expect Subscriber Signals to move from early access toward general availability and the MCP to graduate from beta with broader write actions across lists, sequences, and broadcasts.
Formaloo has grown well past a form builder into a workspace platform for collecting, structuring, and acting on data — portals with access control, Kanban and Gallery data blocks with voting, workspace-wide themes, PDF and email templating, and a logic engine. It ships weekly, and recent cycles lean into enterprise readiness: teams and access levels, timezone-consistent records, and usage-based add-ons.
The center of gravity is shifting from capturing responses to operating on them. The Logic engine's new write-back action and built-in lead enrichment let Formaloo automate data mutations and augmentation without Zapier or Make in the loop. Design (themes), governance (teams, timezones, usage metering), and AI-assisted creation (Magic Create from a file) are all being hardened in parallel.
Expect Formaloo to keep absorbing steps that used to require external automation tools — more Logic actions, deeper enrichment, and tighter portal and user-directory workflows — pushing toward a self-contained ops platform.
