GitHub vs Gravity Wiz: at a glance
What is GitHub?
GitHub makes Copilot code review an API-managed policy, and @GitHub in Slack and Teams goes GA.
GitHub's week after Universe is about Copilot as an administered fleet. Code review settings can now be set by REST and GraphQL from enterprise policy down to repository, the impact dashboard covers nine Copilot surfaces including Chat and the VS Code Agents window, and the usage metrics API reports how much review feedback gets addressed and which users have telemetry gaps. @GitHub in Slack and Teams reached general availability, letting chat threads open issues and pull requests.
What is Gravity Wiz?
Gravity Wiz previews Flowcrafter, a visual workflow canvas for Gravity Forms.
Gravity Wiz has been launching whole products: GP Bookings 1.0 in August, a free Entry Archive plugin in July, and Product Configurator 1.0 and Spam Hexer in June. On November 6 it opened early access to Flowcrafter Beta 1, a free plugin for building Gravity Forms processes on a visual canvas with steps, decisions, approval waits and a record of each run.

GitHub makes Copilot code review an API-managed policy, and @GitHub in Slack and Teams goes GA.
◆ Current state
GitHub's week after Universe is about Copilot as an administered fleet. Code review settings can now be set by REST and GraphQL from enterprise policy down to repository, the impact dashboard covers nine Copilot surfaces including Chat and the VS Code Agents window, and the usage metrics API reports how much review feedback gets addressed and which users have telemetry gaps. @GitHub in Slack and Teams reached general availability, letting chat threads open issues and pull requests.
◆ Where it's heading
Copilot is moving from a per-developer tool to something enterprises configure, meter and audit centrally. Each release adds a control or a measurement layer around agents that already exist, while distribution keeps widening into hosts GitHub does not own: Xcode, JetBrains Air, Slack and Teams.
◆ Prediction
Expect more usage-metrics fields and policy APIs tied to agent features, likely covering agent sessions and merge automation next, since review and chat now have both.
Gravity Wiz
3.8DEVOPS
Gravity Wiz previews Flowcrafter, a visual workflow canvas for Gravity Forms.
◆ Current state
Gravity Wiz has been launching whole products: GP Bookings 1.0 in August, a free Entry Archive plugin in July, and Product Configurator 1.0 and Spam Hexer in June. On November 6 it opened early access to Flowcrafter Beta 1, a free plugin for building Gravity Forms processes on a visual canvas with steps, decisions, approval waits and a record of each run.
◆ Where it's heading
Each launch takes Gravity Forms further from data collection: bookings made it a scheduling tool, and Flowcrafter makes it a process engine where a submission starts multi-step work. The pattern is broad new surfaces, with beta and alpha releases before 1.0.
◆ Prediction
Expect further Flowcrafter betas adding steps and integrations with existing perks such as GP Bookings, before a 1.0 release.
