ZenTao posts a 22.0 beta with no notes in the feed.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Ever Teams and Plane — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Ever Teams tags dozens of versions a day; most are fixes and test changes.
Ever Teams tags several releases a day. On 12 November 0.196 added a Jira Cloud integration section, timer notes and a Workspace settings page, and 0.197 added a due-date calendar, drag-to-reschedule and a Table layout for team tasks. The releases tagged around midnight on 13 November are small: a dismissable newsletter card, spelling-list and test fixes, a dependency bump, Docs export fixes, and in 0.199.0 a keyboard shortcut to assign tasks.
Plane's AI layer is becoming programmable — saved skills and embedded AI docs change the category.
Plane ships every two weeks with a consistent mix of collaboration features, AI improvements, and documentation enhancements. Shared views, tabs in Pages, and collapsible blocks have brought the document layer closer to Notion-level expressiveness. The AI capabilities have moved from model access to structured, reusable workflow components (Skills). Audit logs and shared dashboards signal the beginning of an enterprise motion.

The project ships through an automated release loop that tags every merged change, so version numbers say little about scope. Real features still arrive every day or two, aimed at task views, time tracking and integrations with other project tools.
Expect the version count to keep climbing quickly, with the occasional release adding a task view or integration among many fix-only tags.

Plane is building a programmable project intelligence layer on top of its issue tracker. PQL (Plane Query Language) across dashboards and filters, AI Skills that save and replay workflow patterns, and embedded AI Blocks in Pages all point toward a product where AI-driven automation is constructed within Plane — not through external integrations. This is the direction Linear has avoided and where Plane is differentiating.
AI-generated project summaries or smart prioritization based on PQL patterns are the next logical release — the infrastructure (PQL, AI skills, AI block) is in place; applying it automatically to surface risks or bottlenecks is the natural next step.
