Formbricks vs Re:amaze: at a glance
What is Formbricks?
Formbricks 6.2 candidate two fixes Helm installs and response filters before stable.
Formbricks' 6.0 cycle renamed Unify to Analyze and added MCP OAuth, and 6.1 added the v3 responses API. 6.2.0-rc.1 brought data retention policies and shared show-conditions; rc.2 on November 12 is mostly fixes: fresh Helm installs with bundled PostgreSQL, Valkey templates across upgrades, consistent multi-status response filters and a themed signature pad. It also exposes embedded-data keys in chart pickers and includes a Cube config change for custom database roles.
What is Re:amaze?
Re:amaze keeps adding stages to the pipeline before a human sees a ticket
Re:amaze publishes a blog that doubles as its release channel, and the run since January is a single continuous build: the AI Agent launched as a knowledge-base-backed chatbot, gained smarter intent detection, extended to email and SMS, then a mid-year roundup added visibility into how the agent works and ways to test it before it goes live. The newest entry introduces an AI Pre-Filter that sorts the inbox before any of that runs — separating marketing mail, shipping notices, social mentions and spam from the customers who actually need an answer.

Formbricks
5.0SUPPORT
Formbricks 6.2 candidate two fixes Helm installs and response filters before stable.
◆ Current state
Formbricks' 6.0 cycle renamed Unify to Analyze and added MCP OAuth, and 6.1 added the v3 responses API. 6.2.0-rc.1 brought data retention policies and shared show-conditions; rc.2 on November 12 is mostly fixes: fresh Helm installs with bundled PostgreSQL, Valkey templates across upgrades, consistent multi-status response filters and a themed signature pad. It also exposes embedded-data keys in chart pickers and includes a Cube config change for custom database roles.
◆ Where it's heading
Formbricks keeps building controls for larger self-hosted customers, retention rules and scoped APIs, while much of each candidate goes to its Helm and Compose packaging. The feed still shows release candidates rather than stable tags.
◆ Prediction
Expect one or two more 6.2 candidates of deployment fixes before a stable 6.2.0, likely within two weeks given the rc.1 to rc.2 gap.

◆ Current state
Re:amaze publishes a blog that doubles as its release channel, and the run since January is a single continuous build: the AI Agent launched as a knowledge-base-backed chatbot, gained smarter intent detection, extended to email and SMS, then a mid-year roundup added visibility into how the agent works and ways to test it before it goes live. The newest entry introduces an AI Pre-Filter that sorts the inbox before any of that runs — separating marketing mail, shipping notices, social mentions and spam from the customers who actually need an answer.
◆ Where it's heading
The company is working backwards from the reply toward the inbox. First the agent answered questions, then it understood them better, then it reached more channels, then it became inspectable and testable. Pre-filtering is the logical next step upstream: deciding what is even a support conversation. The supporting content — how to write help centre articles for better AI answers, how much support AI should handle — is aimed at customers who have to decide how much of the queue to hand over.
◆ Prediction
Expect the pre-filter and the agent to be connected into a single routing decision, with escalation rules for the VIP case the announcement explicitly calls out as needing a person.
