FluentCRM vs Twenty: at a glance
What is FluentCRM?
FluentCRM's 3.0 rewrite adds SMS, AI authoring, and an MCP server
FluentCRM just shipped 3.0, a ground-up rewrite on Vue 3 with a Gutenberg-native email builder, SMS marketing, AI email authoring and summaries, an MCP server for AI agents, a new dashboard, and dark mode. The releases leading up to it were steady maintenance, hotfixes plus incremental WooCommerce and FluentCart integration work and reporting improvements.
What is Twenty?
Twenty tags 2.56 three days after 2.55, with only translations in the notes.
Twenty tagged 2.56.0 for the server and SDK on November 5; the only published note is an automated translations update. 2.55 shipped a fix keeping agent chats share-only until private records are enabled, and 2.54 turned campaigns on for every workspace and let apps declare MCP servers.

FluentCRM's 3.0 rewrite adds SMS, AI authoring, and an MCP server
◆ Current state
FluentCRM just shipped 3.0, a ground-up rewrite on Vue 3 with a Gutenberg-native email builder, SMS marketing, AI email authoring and summaries, an MCP server for AI agents, a new dashboard, and dark mode. The releases leading up to it were steady maintenance, hotfixes plus incremental WooCommerce and FluentCart integration work and reporting improvements.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is moving from a WordPress email-marketing plugin toward a broader, AI-assisted, multi-channel CRM. SMS and the MCP server in particular push it beyond email and into agent-driven workflows.
◆ Prediction
Expect 3.x point releases stabilizing the rewrite, plus deeper SMS and AI build-out now that the foundation has shipped.
Twenty
5.0CRM
Twenty tags 2.56 three days after 2.55, with only translations in the notes.
◆ Current state
Twenty tagged 2.56.0 for the server and SDK on November 5; the only published note is an automated translations update. 2.55 shipped a fix keeping agent chats share-only until private records are enabled, and 2.54 turned campaigns on for every workspace and let apps declare MCP servers.
◆ Where it's heading
Twenty releases a minor version every few days, and the substance sits in the app platform (MCP servers, marketplace) and in a permissions model being rebuilt around private records. The release notes often show only the last merged commit, so the tag says little about its contents.
◆ Prediction
Expect private records to be enabled more widely in the next minors, since 2.55 put guards in place for that rollout; the 2.56 notes do not say whether that happened.
