A side-by-side editorial comparison of Kit (formerly ConvertKit) and WPForms — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Kit (formerly ConvertKit) vs WPForms: at a glance
What is Kit (formerly ConvertKit)?
Kit handed page-building to an agent, then went back to cleaning up the subscribers list
The Kit MCP crossing from reading a creator's list to building and editing landing pages remains the defining recent release. Since then the work has been ordinary interface repair on the subscriber surface: the Subscribers page was reorganised around search and filtering, and bulk actions became a floating menu that follows the scroll instead of sitting at the top of the list. Creator Network connection requests and custom favicons round out the window.
What is WPForms?
WPForms documents its own addons as tutorials; the feed is support content, not releases.
A steady twice-weekly cadence of how-to posts, each walking through one capability: stopping duplicate submissions, routing entries by conditional logic, connecting to Make.com through the native addon, pushing entries into Slack, building an applicant tracker on forms, and distinguishing confirmations from notifications. No entry announces anything new.

◆ Current state
The Kit MCP crossing from reading a creator's list to building and editing landing pages remains the defining recent release. Since then the work has been ordinary interface repair on the subscriber surface: the Subscribers page was reorganised around search and filtering, and bulk actions became a floating menu that follows the scroll instead of sitting at the top of the list. Creator Network connection requests and custom favicons round out the window.
◆ Where it's heading
The Kit MCP is the axis, and it has already made its jump — from read-and-analyze in May to producing the published artifact in July. What follows is consolidation: the manual surfaces are being tidied so the things an agent can do and the things a creator does by hand sit on comparable footing. Nothing in this window extends the MCP itself, which makes the current period a pause rather than a redirection.
◆ Prediction
Expect the MCP surface to extend to more of the artifacts Kit publishes now that landing pages have proven the pattern. The subscriber-page work reads as a finished cleanup rather than the start of a larger rebuild.
WPForms
5.0MKT AUTO
WPForms documents its own addons as tutorials; the feed is support content, not releases.
◆ Current state
A steady twice-weekly cadence of how-to posts, each walking through one capability: stopping duplicate submissions, routing entries by conditional logic, connecting to Make.com through the native addon, pushing entries into Slack, building an applicant tracker on forms, and distinguishing confirmations from notifications. No entry announces anything new.
◆ Where it's heading
The content maps onto integrations and features that already ship, so the feed reads as documentation reaching for search traffic. The recurring theme is forms as the front end of an automation chain rather than a way to collect email, but that is a framing choice, not a shipped change.
◆ Prediction
Expect more integration walkthroughs on the same cadence; new releases are not visible through this feed.
