DoneDone vs LiveAgent
A side-by-side editorial comparison of DoneDone and LiveAgent — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
DoneDone vs LiveAgent: at a glance
What is DoneDone?
DoneDone just opened a door for other systems to file work without a human.
DoneDone has spent the year sanding down its task and conversation surfaces: Kanban sort options and collapsible columns, assignee filtering, checklist template reordering, tags in CSV exports. Most releases are small and explicitly credited to customer requests. Two recent moves break that pattern — Workflow Automations in early August, and now per-project email addresses that create tasks automatically.
What is LiveAgent?
LiveAgent adds Gemini and Anthropic AI providers, voice transcription, and begins a Svelte 5 rewrite
LiveAgent is aggressively expanding its AI capability surface. The August 27 release added Gemini and Anthropic as AI providers alongside existing OpenAI support, introduced voice call recording transcription, and began migrating the agent panel from GWT to Svelte 5 — all in a single drop. The platform now routes AI answer suggestions via MCP rather than embedding ticket context in prompts, a meaningful architectural shift for context handling.

DoneDone just opened a door for other systems to file work without a human.
◆ Current state
DoneDone has spent the year sanding down its task and conversation surfaces: Kanban sort options and collapsible columns, assignee filtering, checklist template reordering, tags in CSV exports. Most releases are small and explicitly credited to customer requests. Two recent moves break that pattern — Workflow Automations in early August, and now per-project email addresses that create tasks automatically.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is moving from a place people manage work to a place work arrives and routes itself. Automations handle what happens when a task changes status; email intake handles how it gets created. Together they turn DoneDone into an endpoint other systems can drive, which matters more for its support and client-services users than any further board refinement.
◆ Prediction
The obvious next step is automation triggered by intake — routing rules on inbound email, or extending automations beyond status changes to assignment and escalation.

LiveAgent adds Gemini and Anthropic AI providers, voice transcription, and begins a Svelte 5 rewrite
◆ Current state
LiveAgent is aggressively expanding its AI capability surface. The August 27 release added Gemini and Anthropic as AI providers alongside existing OpenAI support, introduced voice call recording transcription, and began migrating the agent panel from GWT to Svelte 5 — all in a single drop. The platform now routes AI answer suggestions via MCP rather than embedding ticket context in prompts, a meaningful architectural shift for context handling.
◆ Where it's heading
The multi-model AI strategy (Gemini, Anthropic, OpenAI, GPT 5.6) and the MCP-based answer suggestion signal that LiveAgent is building a routing layer on top of LLMs rather than coupling to any single provider. The Svelte 5 migration is the other long-running thread — GWT is being replaced incrementally, which will unblock faster UI iteration. Budget controls and per-agent activity tracking suggest tighter usage governance is coming.
◆ Prediction
The Svelte 5 migration will ship in continued incremental PRs, and AI routing controls — model selection per workflow, per-budget AI caps — are the most visible near-term product surface given the tooling already in place.
